Eucalyptus Production Process

1. Setting up:

Ground preparation for planting. At this stage the Eucalyptus Globulus or Nitens seedlings are planted in the previously prepared soil and nutrients are applied in the soil to support plant growth.

2. Silvicultural Treatments:

During the growth of the forest all silvicultural necessary treatments are done in order to obtain the best possible forest at its harvest age, such as pest control, the handling of seedlings, etc.

As well as constantly working on the construction and maintenance of roads and firebreaks to prevent forest fires.

3.Harvest:

It consists in the felling of the forest when it has reached its economic rotation age in order to obtain wood which is transformed into logs and wood chips.  

4. Replanting or vegetative regeneration

Immediately after harvesting, a new cycle is reinitiated by either planting new Eucalyptus seedlings or vegetative regeneration of those trees that have been harvested.
