Description and Uses
Acacia crassicarpa (Red wattle) is a
tropical
tree from
Northern Australia . It is mainly grown for its
conservation crops
, which have a
medium 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;
timber, mulch, fertilization, . The

{missing data} oil. The
tree's wood is called
{missing data} and has a density of
675 -
675 kg/m³. Regarding firewood production the
tree's growing speed is
very fast, it's energetic value is
0 ckal/kg and the wood's drying speed is
{missing data}. After
9 years the
tree can be totally removed as it reached its commercial and ecological goal.
Acacia crassicarpa has a lifespan of
50 years.
Environmental limitations
The tree is
26 meters tall with a crown of
