Description
Summary:<p>There is a shortage of wood in Indonesia due to imbalance between the wood demand by forests<br /> industries and capability to supply wood. The wood from the recently established industrial plantation<br /> forest has not come to the expectation. On the other hand, the size farm forest has increased quite<br /> significantly in recent years and therefore the potential offarm forest to produce wood is also increased.<br /> From silvicultural point of view, the development of farm forest still has some shortcomings. The use of<br /> poor seed from unknown seed source with narrow genetic base is still widespread. Spacing, species<br /> mixture, stand improvement and selection for better trees are still poorly practised by farmers and a<br /> strategy for improving wood production of the farm forest is discuseed.</p>
