In-house production of Eucalyptus benthamii seed
Golden Tree produces its own E. benthamii in the city of Candói, state of Paraná, in an area of 7.6 hectares, containing about 1,360 rigorously selected trees. In Brazil, this is the first seed area of this species owned by a private company registered with the Ministry of Agriculture. It is identified in the Brazilian Cultivar Registry as EBC 06 Candói #20959, Renasem PR-02151/2007.
Golden Tree’s E. benthamii seedlings come all from our own Seed Production Area (SPA) with guaranteed quality in seedling and productivity standards!
Seedling seed orchard – SSO
With a view to obtaining improved, engineered generations, a seedling seed orchard was established by using seedlings of Eucalyptus benthamii from selected matrices. The selection of the best families and superior specimens within these families will enable gains in productivity and wood quality in future plantations. The flowering of these trees is being monitored in partnership with EMBRAPA.
