1996
Ng., F.S.P. (Center for International Forestry Research, Bogor (Indonesia))
Thirty years of research on planting stock in Malaysia, covering the period of a FAO/UNDP pine project, an enrichment planting efforts with dipterocarps in natural forests, and a compensatory plantation project with fast-growing trees, hard minimal effect on the couse of events. The pine project and the enrichment planting project were both given up after about 15 years of effort and the compensatory plantation project is likely to end in the same way. The interface between research and application was more complicated than what managers and scientists were prepared for and the benefits of research were seldom realized.
