description StoraEnso decided in year 2002 to build a pulp mill in the province of Guangxi, southern China, and also establish eucalyptus plantations to provide it with raw material. By 2010 StoraEnso controls about 90 000 of planned 120 000 ha, out of 75 000 ha is already planted with Eucalyptus. By using better genetic material, improve the tending, selecting the sites more careful and by using a proper fertilization regime StoraEnso hopes to increase the mean annual increment from today’s 25 m3/ha, on bark, to 35 m3/ha. This study is one part in this work to increase the mean annual increment in the plantation. This master thesis is the forth in a series, that has followed up a fertilization trial that started in spring 2006 when the trial was laid out and treatments decided. The aim with the trial is to examine the production potential of Eucalyptus urophylla in Guangxi, southern China. In total there are seven different treatments, out of which one is the common practice for StoraEnso Guangxi, and one is an untreated control treatment. The three max-fertilized treatments have gotten the amounts of fertilizers decided after leaf-nutrient analysis. If the nutrient analysis revealed that the concentration of a specific nutrient was too low, extra amounts of that nutrient were included in the next fertilization. The treatment with the highest total production and mean annual increment at a stand age of 68 months is the max-fertilized treatment: NPK-300-B with a total stem wood production of 208.10 m3/ha and a MAI of 36.72 m3/ha. NPK-300-B was also the only treatment that had a statistically significant higher total production and MAI than the Control treatment. The mean basic density value was significantly lower in the wood harvested from treatment NPK-300-B (469 kg/m3) compared to wood from the control (498 kg/m3). The leaf analysis showed that the concentrations of all nutrients have increased in both treatments since the last analysis in 2008 made by Rickard Carlsson and that the recommended ratios have been reached for all nutrients, except for phosphorous (P) in the control which was slightly under the recommended ratio. Potential dry mass production/ ha/yr at the latitude of Guangxi is estimated to be around 30 tons, if water, nutrients and other biotic factors limiting the growth is satisfied. In treatment NPK-300-B the production reaches 14.095 tons/ha and year when the volume production peaked at a stand age of 68 months. So potentially the stem production is only 50% of the estimated potential.

Genom att förbättra det genetiska materialet, förbättra skötsel, välja plantageplatserna mer noggrant och genom att gödsla på ett bra sätt hoppas StoraEnso att medeltillväxten kommer öka, från nuvarande 25 m3/ha, på bark, till 35 m3/ha. Detta examensarbete är det fjärde som följer upp utvecklingen av ett gödslingsförsök som startade våren 2006 när försöket lades ut och man beslutade om vilka behandlingar som skulle ingå. Målet med försöket är att undersökta produktionspotentialen på Eucalyptus urophylla i Guangxi. Totalt är det sju olika behandlingar, varav en är kutym i eukalyptus plantager i södra Kina, samt en kontroll. De tre maxgödslade ytorna har fått sina gödselgivor bestämda utifrån näringsanalyser utförda på bladen, de näringsämnen som funnits i för låg koncentration har givits i extra doser vid nästa gödslingstillfälle. Behandlingen med högst volymtillväxt vid en beståndsålder av 68 månader var den maxgödslade; NPK-300-B, som hade en total stamvolym på 208.10 m3/ha och en medeltillväxt på 36.72 m3/ha. NPK-300-B var också den enda behandlingen som gav en statistiskt signifikant ökad total tillväxt och medeltillväxt jämfört med kontrollen. Torrviktsdensiteten var signifikant lägre i veden som kom från behandling NPK-300B (469 kg/m3) jämfört med veden som kom från kontroll ytan (498 kg/m3). Näringsanalyserna som gjorts på bladen visade att koncentrationerna av alla näringsämnen ökat och att de rekommenderade kvoterna har uppnåtts för alla näringsämnen utom fosfor (P) i kontrollen som var alldeles under den rekommenderade kvoten. Den potentiella stamtorrviktsproduktionen på Guangxis breddgrad är ca 30 ton/ha/år om alla begränsande faktorer som näring och vatten tillgodoses. I behandlingen med högst tillväxt, NPK-300-B, uppnåddes en årlig stamtorrviktsproduktion på 14.095 ton då tillväxten kulminerade vid en beståndsålder av 68 månader. Detta betyder att den uppnådda tillväxten i det här försöket inte ens var hälften mot den potentiella. 2011-09-30 Second cycle, A1E NonPeerReviewed application/pdf swe https://stud.epsilon.slu.se/3294/1/Timander_P_110930.pdf Timander, Per, 2011.
