Abstract
Eucalyptus is one of the most widely planted genus because of its fast growth rate, multiple uses, ability to tolerate and grow well on degraded and unfertile soils. The study was based on nine Eucalyptus clones (C-411, C-2045, C-413, PE-5, PE-11, PE-1, PE-7, PE-8 and PE-6) planted in semi-arid conditions irrigated with effluents from liquor factory. All the clones adapted well with very high survival rate. Differences among the clones were found to be significant for tree height and diameter at age of 4.5, 8 and 13 months. Clone C-413 and PE-5 were found to be promising with respect to wood volume. performed better than other clones. The height growth was relatively fast with tree height growth upto 7.23 m after 13 months. The result concluded that liquor factory effluents may be recommended as a good source of irrigation to Eucalyptus trees.
