SEED OF PINUS CARIBAEA VAR. HONDURENSIS

A limited amount of seed of the above species, origin: Mountain Pine Ridge (MPR), Belize; provenance: Fiji Islands, will be made available by FAO free of charge to interested developing countries.

The seed, collected from silviculturally thinned plantations in Fiji, is available for the establishment of national seed production/selection stands in countries where the MPR provenance has shown some promise (5–10 ha per country).
