Summary: | Acacia mangium Willd. is one of the fast-growing timber species planted
widely in Malaysia to overcome the expected timber deficit for the domestic
consumption purposes. However, nutrient requirements of this species are not
adequately known. There is also no proper foliar sampling guideline although
foliar diagnosis is the most widely used method to determine nutrient
deficiencies in trees in temperate and subtropical countries. There are few
studies conducted on these aspects in the tropics and research guidelines are
lacking in the case of A. mangium plantation in Malaysia. |
