Ong K.H., . and Priscilla P., . and Lim M.T., . (2002) Ground flora composition in an agroforestry system. [Proceedings Paper]
Abstract
The presence of ground flora especially in plantation has often been considered a problem which can cause failures in establishment. Information on the ground flora in forest plantation and agroforestry system has seldom being studied. Nowadays studies of ground flora have become more important as information on ground flora diversity is fundamental to the sustainable management of an area. A study of ground flora was conducted in a plantation within an agroforestry system in Johore with the objective of identifying the ground flora composition. One hundred and fifty three plots each measuring 2m x 2m were sampled in the study area of 2.8 ha. Results show that there were 12 families and 27 species including 2 fern. The three most frequent found families in term of cover were Compositae Rubiaceae and Acanthaceae. The three most frequently found species in term of cover were Borreria latifolia Ageratum conyzoides and Asystasia intrusa.
