Eucalyptus 288, known for its fast growth and adaptability, offers significant yield advantages, particularly in forestry and biomass production. Its traits include: 1. High Growth Rate: Eucalyptus 288 typically grows faster than many other species, resulting in quicker harvest cycles. 2. Disease Resistance: This clone is more resistant to common pests and diseases, reducing losses and increasing overall productivity. 3. Wood Quality: It produces high-quality wood suitable for various applications, from timber to pulp, enhancing market value. 4. Drought Tolerance: Adapted to various environmental conditions, it can thrive in less favorable climates, ensuring consistent yields. Overall, these factors contribute to its popularity in commercial forestry operations. #agroforestry #plantation #forestry #horticulture #agriculture #landscape #woodyplants #pulpwood #eucalyptus #Urvara #biodiversity #bilt Urvara Krsi
Where have you tested drought tolerance please ???

5 个月Eucalyptus Clone No. 288 is known for its drought resistance, as evidenced by its selection for adaptation to water-limited environments. This clone demonstrates physiological plasticity, which allows it to maintain growth and efficient water use even under drought stress. For further reading, you can refer to the detailed research on eucalyptus clones and their adaptation mechanisms: iForest Journal: A study highlights the physiological approaches used to pre-select eucalyptus clones, including Clone 288, for drought resistance. Journal of Forestry Research: This paper explains the role of physiological plasticity in helping eucalyptus clones like Clone 288 tolerate drought conditions.
