Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of 13 Pinus kesiya provenances at Buhindi Mwanza Tanzania. Periodic data were collected on survival breast height diameter and height. A final assessment was carried out at 18.3 y for survival breast height diameter height stem form and basic density. Except for wood basic density all other variables differed significantly (p0.05) between provenances. The following provenances with satisfactory performance are recommended for small-scale planting at Buhindi: Benguet Kabayan and Zambales (ex Philippines) Dalat (ex Vietnam) Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) and Chati (ex Zambia).
