Abstract
PALACIOS ROMERO, Abraham; RODRIGUEZ LAGUNA, Rodrigo; RAZO ZARATE, Ramón and JIMENEZ MUNOZ, Edith. Effect of hydrated phenolic foam on the survival of Pinus leiophylla Schiede ex Schltdl. & Cham and Pinus teocote Schltdl. & Cham. Rev CFORES [online]. 2023, vol.11, n.3 Epub Sep 08, 2023. ISSN 2310-3469.
Countries like Mexico make significant efforts to reforest, but the results are not good due to the low survival rates caused by drought and water stress. Therefore, the effect of applying hydrated phenolic foam at plantation moment, on the survival and growth in Pinus leiophylla and Pinus teocote was assessed. Two trials were established, one for each species, with five treatments of different volumes of hydrated phenolic foam. The variables measured were survival, growth in height and diameter. The analyzes showed that hydrated phenolic foam significantly increases survival and height growth in Pinus leiophylla, but not in Pinus teocote. No effect was shown on diameter for any of the species. The application of hydrated phenolic foam at planting moment increase the survival of pine.
