Biomass yield and growth of Schizolobium amazonicum (Huber) Ducke under different spacing conditions in the wood region

An assay was carried out at Sinop, Mato Grosso. Total height, number of wind-damaged plants and biomass yield of Schizolobium amazonicum were evaluated in different populational densities and spacings, at sixty months of age. The results show that height and DBH developments were influenced in the different spacings studied. Forty seven plants were wind-damaged and the 4 x 4m spacing yielded more biomass than the other spacings.
