    POTENTIAL TREE SPECIES, THEIR DISTRIBUTION PATTERN AND BIOMASS PRODUCTION IN HOMESTEAD OF MADHUPUR TRACT
    (Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Research System (SAURES), Dhaka, Bangladesh, 2009-07) Hossain, F. M.; Sarmin, N. S.; Sultana, M.; Chowdhury, A. K. M. M. A.; Al-Mamun, M. F.
    A study was conducted in Rangchapra village belong to the Muktagacha Thana under Mymensingh District to find out the potential tree species, their growth and distribution pattern as well as biomass production in homesteads. Data were collected from selected randomly 100 households out of 253 households with the help of interview schedule during July to December 2004. The study revealed that potential tree species found in homesteads are wood (59%) followed by fruit (51%), and fruit and wood (33%), respectively. Among the respondents, large farm categories prefer pond micro site (53.89 dcml) for desired species plantations followed by medium (23.10 dcml) and small (18.63 dcrnl) fanners. Estimated tree biomass production was increased (0.50 t/ha) slightly from year 1985 to 2004. The correlation value indicated that there is insignificant relation between age with tree number and biomass production. While other independent variables are strongly correlated with tree number and biOlT.~SSproduction.
