Neco 2017 Agricultural Science Question 26
Practice objective / multiple choice question 26 from the 2017 Neco Agricultural Science examination.
A forest plantation of 120 ha is established with a tree species that is 2 m tall at planting. The height increases linearly with time. After 8 years the average height is 18 m and the measured timber volume is 360 m\^3 per hectare. The volume per hectare can be expressed as \(V = c\cdot h^{2}\), where \(h\) is the average height (m) and \(c\) is a constant. Assuming the same growth pattern continues, determine the total net timber volume (in m\^3, rounded to the nearest cubic metre) that will be obtained from the whole plantation at the end of 15 years if a disease reduces the standing volume by 12\% at that time.
