Yield of Red Oak Stands in the Nyírség Forest Region (Eastern-Hungary)

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Besides black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) and hybrid poplar ssp., red oak (Quercus rubra L.) can be considered as the third most important exotic stand-forming tree species in Hungary. Due to its favourite silvicultural and growth characteristics as well as its wood utilization possibilities, the present area occupied by red oak stands amounts to 14000 hectares in the country. Of its growing districts Nyírség (Eastern-Hungary) has a distinguished importance where the area of red oak stands is 2000 hectares. To determine their growth rate and yield as exactly as possible, a local numerical (tabulated) yield table has been constructed on the basis of surveys of a hundred experimental plots. We consider that the data used for constructing the yield table can be favourably used for improvement of the red oak stands management as well.
