A total of 27 sample plots were laid out in teak plantations raised by State Forest Department in Kamataka covering different age groups （11-36 years）, density （516-2061 trees/ha） and sites. From these planta- tions, a total of 130 trees were felled for estimating the yield and bark content in relation to diameter at breast height （DBH）, age and density. Bark content ranged from 22.2%-54.3%. Heartwood and sapwood con- tent were analyzed by sampling five trees each from two different planta- tions, one 30 years old at 553 trees.ha-1 and the other 32 years old at 911 trees.ha-1. The highest heartwood proportion of stem wood volume （over-bark） was 56.3% and the lowest was 37.1%.展开更多
