Allometric equations for estimating biomass and carbon accumulation in commercial macauba palm plantations

This study aimed to fit allometric models for dry matter mass (kg/plant) and carbon accumulation (kg/plant) in macauba palm ( Acrocomia aculeata ). Data were obtained from 18 palms grown in Araponga, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, at ages of 3.0, 5.4, 10.5, 12.2, 15.5, and 16.4 year...
