Abstract
Growth studies of Calamus trachycoleus canes at the Baru Puteh rattan plantation along the bank of the Kinabatangan Sabah indicated growth of about 10 ft. per yr per cane. Given the adverse weather conditions of 1983 it is still expected that it will be possible to get some 0.5 m.t. of canes per acre by yr 8. Internal rate of return IRR calculated for yield assumption A of 1.2 m.t./acre/yr over 25 yrs is 19.3 and for yield assumption B of 1.0 m.t./acre/yr is 15. Even if production for yield assumption B drops by 50 the IRR of 8.7 indicated that the project is still viable
