dc.description.abstractThe effect of stocking density and age gradation on incremental growth and productivity of teak was studied in three different age gradations, viz., 26, 39 and 49 years across three stocking densities viz., low, medium and high stocking density. Observations on growth parameters like total height, clear bole height, dbh, basal area, clear bole volume and total volume were recorded on trees in 10 X 10 m sample plots and average data per hectare was calculated. Generally, the total tree volume increased with increasing age. The total volume per hectare was significantly higher in the 49 year age gradation (621.62 m3) than in 39 year age gradation (414.48 m3) and 26 year age gradation (81.96 m3). It was significantly higher in high stocking density (422.38 m3) than in low stocking density (332.22 m3) but was statistically on par with medium stocking density (363.45 m3). The CAI in total volume was significantly higher in 26 year age gradation (7.55 m3) than in 49 year age gradation (4.13 m3) but was statistically on par with 39 year age gradation (6.33 m3). CAI in total volume was significantly higher in low stocking density (7.44 m3) than in high stocking density (4.04 m3) but was statistically on par with medium stocking density (6.53 m3). The MAI of total volume was significantly lower in 26 year age gradation (3.15 m3) than in 49 year age gradation (12.69 m3) which was statistically on par with 39 year age gradation (10.63 m3). The high stocking density (9.83 m3) was significantly higher than the low stocking density (7.93 m3) which was on statistically par with medium stocking density (8.70 m3). The value of timber per hectare was higher in the 49 year age gradation ( 14947146) than in 39 year age gradation ( 5943502) and least in 26 year age gradation ( 1033950). The value of timber was higher in the high stocking density ( 7869323) followed by low stocking density ( 7301900) and least in the medium stocking density ( 6753375).en_US
