Abstract

One alternative to support forest repopulation projects is bare root seedlings utilization because nursery propagation, seedling transportation and establishment costs are less than container system. In Mexico, site preparation is not a common practice, this had lead to poor survival and slow early growth; to obtain information about this concem, a study was initiated in July 1989, the locality was San Juan Nuevo Parangaricutiro, Michoacan forest lands, the goal was to observe seedling (bare-root and container) response to field conditions as modified by two competition control treatments. Pinus pseudostrobus Lindl. experimental plantation establishment was an attempt to improve planting operation for both bare-root and container seedlings. Establishment details five years survival and seedlings diameter and height development are: chaponeo­container 95%, 5.1 cm and 3.84 m; chaponeo-bare-root 85%, 4.9 cm and 3.85 m; container-fallow: 96%, 6.8 cm and 4.71 m; bare-root-fallow 83%, 6.9 cm and 4.78 m. Establishment costs per hectare in 1996 were: land fallowed and container was $4,284.00; land fallowed and bare-root seedlings was $2,367.00; chaponeo and container$ 4,194.00 and chaponeo-bare-root was $2,277.00. Conclusions indicate that fallow influence diameter and heigh growth in 36% and 23.5% respectively versus chaponeo both container and bare-root seedlings, but there were not effects on survival indicator.
