Cutting propagation as an alternative technique for mass production of dipterocarps planting stocks in Indonesia

Subiakto Atok, . and Sakai Chikaya, . and Purnomo Susilo, . and Taufiqurahman, . (2006) Cutting propagation as an alternative technique for mass production of dipterocarps planting stocks in Indonesia. In: 8th Round-Table Conference on Dipterocarps: Dipterocarps - Enhancing Capacities in Sustainable Development and Poverty Alleviation, 15-17 Nov 2005, Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam).

Mass cutting propagation of meranti has been developed by the collaboration project between Forestry Research and Development Agency and Advanced Research Department of KOMATSU Ltd. The technology known as KOFFCO system (KomatsuFORDA Fog Cooling system) is suitable to produce meranti planting stocks from shoot cuttings. The propagation technology controls humidity temperature and light intensity to a level suitable for transpiration and photosynthesis. Supported by the JICA and ITTO transfer of KOFFCO technology through training program and technical assistant to the private sectors among others PT. Sari Bumi Kusuma West Kalimantan and PT. ITCIKU East Kalimantan has been conducted. Cutting production of indigenous dipterocarps species by KOFFCO system and conventional technique in West Java West Kalimantan and East Kalimantan were highlighted in this paper. In Indonesia cutting technique has been studied to 36 dipterocarps species namely Anisoptera marginata Dipterocarpus cornutus D. grandiflorus Dryobalanops aromatica D. lanceolata Hopea bancana H. gregaria H. mangarawan H. odorata Shorea acuminatissima S. assamica S. balangeran S. blanco S. faguetiana S. guisso S. javanica S. johorensis S. laevis S. lamellata S. leprosula S. macrophylla S. multiflora S. ovalis S. palembanica S. parvifolia S. pauciflora S. pinanga S. platyclados S. polyandra S. selanica S. seminis S smithiana S. stenoptera Vatica sumatrana and V. walichii. Rooting percentage ranges from 0% to 99% depending on species. The technique is suitable for producing planting stocks of dipterocarps when seeds are not available and for mass propagation of superior clones generated through breeding program.

Abstract

Mass cutting propagation of meranti has been developed by the collaboration project between Forestry Research and Development Agency and Advanced Research Department of KOMATSU Ltd. The technology known as KOFFCO system (KomatsuFORDA Fog Cooling system) is suitable to produce meranti planting stocks from shoot cuttings. The propagation technology controls humidity temperature and light intensity to a level suitable for transpiration and photosynthesis. Supported by the JICA and ITTO transfer of KOFFCO technology through training program and technical assistant to the private sectors among others PT. Sari Bumi Kusuma West Kalimantan and PT. ITCIKU East Kalimantan has been conducted. Cutting production of indigenous dipterocarps species by KOFFCO system and conventional technique in West Java West Kalimantan and East Kalimantan were highlighted in this paper. In Indonesia cutting technique has been studied to 36 dipterocarps species namely Anisoptera marginata Dipterocarpus cornutus D. grandiflorus Dryobalanops aromatica D. lanceolata Hopea bancana H. gregaria H. mangarawan H. odorata Shorea acuminatissima S. assamica S. balangeran S. blanco S. faguetiana S. guisso S. javanica S. johorensis S. laevis S. lamellata S. leprosula S. macrophylla S. multiflora S. ovalis S. palembanica S. parvifolia S. pauciflora S. pinanga S. platyclados S. polyandra S. selanica S. seminis S smithiana S. stenoptera Vatica sumatrana and V. walichii. Rooting percentage ranges from 0% to 99% depending on species. The technique is suitable for producing planting stocks of dipterocarps when seeds are not available and for mass propagation of superior clones generated through breeding program.
