Yield Prediction for Acacia mangium Plantations in Southeast Asia

Abstract

Acacia species have been widely planted in Southeast Asian industrial plantations. Among them, Acacia mangium—identified as a promising fast-growing variety—has been planted on a large scale not only for industrial use, but also for forest remediation in the tropics. This paper investigates the growth characteristics of Acacia mangium in Peninsular Malaysia to analyze its growth performance and construct a growth model and yield table applicable to Southeast Asia.
