Alnus acuminata with pasture
The deliberate combination of "Jaul" (Alnus acuminata) with pasture (mainly Pennisetum clandestinum, but also with P. purpureum and Axonopus scoparius) has been a number of publicationally from at least 1950. However, very little has been written concerning the ecological effect arising from the inclusion of A. acuminata in pastures. CATIE presently has a number of permanent plots, the first being established in March of 1979, in which measurements of growth rates of this species are being made in combinations containing different pasture species. Is presented the data summary from permanent observation plots, the general information from two farms which have forest pastures: location, elevation, species, age, provenance, initial spacing, area, rotation, fertilization and production. The characteristics of A. acuminata in two farms with forest pastures: density, height, diameter, basal area, growth, comercial volume and value.
