Abstract

The Commonwealtn Forestry Institute, in Oxford, is carrying out a research on the quality of the four Cuban native pines. This is a preliminary report of the study made about the density of the Pinus occidentalis Sw. wood, which indicates that this species has an even and fast growing rate in. natural forest, and that its  wood density is above the average of that of other tropical pines. Density is generally accepted as a good indicator of the wood quality. The studies carried out show that the density of the P. occidentalis wood permits to state that it has a promising quality.
