This study assessed the potential of carbon dioxide content on above ground biomass in Eucalyptus camaldulensis at the age of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years old. The result indicated that E. camaldulensis at the age of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years old could store carbon dioxide 2.962, 7.154, 15.049, 22.156 and 23.667 ton/rai, respectively. Comparing to teak plantation at the age of 6 years old and para-rubber plantation at the age of 5 years old, it was found that E. camaldulensis at the age of more than 3 years old could better store carbon dioxide. Moreover, the study on carbon credit value in E. camaldulensis at the age of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years old found that the value of it was 495.72-849.83, 1,197.29-2,052.55, 2,518.60-4,317.71, 3,708.03-6, 356.78, and 3,960.91-6,790.30 Baht/rai, respectively.
