Chopo4D

Online application developed to estimate the growth and production of plantations of the five hybrid poplar clones with the largest planted area in Spain: ‘Beaupre’, ‘I-214’, ‘MC’, ‘Raspalje’ and ‘Unal’.

 

Chopo4D is applicable to contemporary poplar plantations with a planting frame between 5 × 5 m and 6 × 6 m, aged between 3 and 17 years and with an average diameter of up to 40 cm.
