The Effect of Silvicultural Management on the Production of Moso Bamboo Plantations for Pulp-making

A series of tests for pulp-making in the moso bamboo stands were conducted systematically in Anji Couny of Zhejiang Province,Shaowu County of Fujian Province and Fengxin County of Jiangxi Province,and practice was put into by establishing 20 hm2 high-yield model stand of moso bamboo for pulp-making. The results show that the productivity of moso bamboo stands are decided by habitat and scientific management,and has sighificant difference due to different management,site quality or different original bamboo stands state. A bamboo forest which is in an undesirable state in poor site can be guided toward the establishment of an ideal of normal state with technical measures such as loosing soil, fertilization,reasonable cutting,adjusting stands structure and so on.This paper also put forward the management model of moso bamboo stands for pulp-making by suiting measures to local conditions and classifying management to improve the economic effect,i.e.it is desirable model to take A measure of intensive management in class I site for 30～40 t·hm-2 high yield culms per on-and off-year,A or B measure of intensive management in class Ⅱ site for about 25 t·hm-2 moderate yield culms and C measure in class Ⅲ site for about 18 t·hm-2 yield culms.
