Abstract
A small plantation (0,018 hectare) of Petford provenance of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn. was raised on the blanks of rural ponds with a spacing of 1,6X 1,6 m to assess the growth and fuel wood yield under rural site condition. The survival of plants was 96%. At the age of 5 years the plants attained an average height of 11,54 m with an average diameter (dbh) of 11.64 cm. The yield of fuel wood including bark and branches was 139,1 t/ha 12% moisture content. The results show a good prospect in raising fuel wood plantation of the province in rural waste and marginal land on a rotation of 5 years.
