- Summary:
- This project is being conducted to provide baseline data on biomass production, field management techniques and economic/energy costs of the energy forest in central and western Kansas. During 1978 three sites in central Kansas were planted to fast growing hardwood tree seedlings having the capability of sprouting when cut. In 1979, three additional sites in central and western Kansas will be planted to test additional site/climatic conditions. Black locust, catalpa and cottonwood were planted in 1/5 acre circular plots with 30 spokes at seven planting densities, ranging from 3 1/2 to 11 feet apart. The program is on schedule with three of six sites planted. Even under trying growing conditions this summer, survival is roughly 80%. (MHR)
