Description and Uses
Acacia aulacocarpa (Brown salwood) is a
tropical
tree from
Northern Australia . It is mainly grown for its
timber crops
, which have a
no shelf life. The crop is harvested by
total removing. It starts flowering after
0 -
0 years. The yield will be
{missing data}, but in its top season there will be a yield of
{missing data}. Other crop types include;
ornamental, fuel, fodder, fertilization, timber, . The
{missing data} is used as
inedible . The
{missing data} is used as "
{missing data} " with

phytochemical. There is
{missing data} extracted by
{missing data} from the
tree's
{missing data} yielding
{missing data} -
{missing data} oil. The
tree's wood is called
{missing data} and has a density of
800 -
800 kg/m³. Regarding firewood production the
tree's growing speed is
medium, it's energetic value is
5160 ckal/kg and the wood's drying speed is
{missing data}. After
35 years the
tree can be totally removed as it reached its commercial and ecological goal.
Acacia aulacocarpa has a lifespan of
70 years.
Environmental limitations
The tree is
40 meters tall with a crown of
12 meters wide. The
tree prefers a planting distance of
