Body

This study indicates that tree foliage yield can be approximated from crown measurements. The relation between crown and foliage production is improved by including ratings of foliage denseness (sparse, medium, and dense) and soil characteristics. Such estimates are needed to fully evaluate site potential and condition of rangeland occupied by trees.
