Proceedings of a workshop on Eucalyptus in California; June 14-16, 1983; Sacramento, California

Abstract

To provide up-to-date information on Eucalyptus in California, researchers from Califor-nia, Florida, Hawaii, Oregon, and France presented papers on species selection, products, uses, and economics, growth and yield, cultural requirements, propagation, and breeding programs. This Proceedings of the Workshop should serve as a useful reference for landowners, foresters, nurserymen, horticulturists, and others who are planning to plant Eucalyptus.
