A wider resin tapping face to enhance resin and timber use compatibility in Galicia, Spain.
Submitted by Javier Calvo on 16 March 2020
Explore options in Pinus pinaster stand management with adapted methods to improve compatibility between resin and timber uses.
The aim is to verify whether the 20 cm wide resin tapping wounds, wider than the traditional 12 cm, can lead to an increase in the annual resin production per tree and if this tapping method is compatible with the traditional wood use in Galicia.
