“…With teak native forests disappearing, teak plantations are expanding and now cover 4.3⋅10 6 ha ( Fernández-Moya et al, 2014 ). Establishing mixed plantations as alternatives to mono-species teak stands would guarantee economic returns without a subsequent impoverishment of soil fertility.…”

“…Teak (Tectonia grandis L.f.) plantations, for example, have often been associated with high erosion rates because of lack of understorey and large tree leaves (Calder, 2001). But a recent study showed that poor vegetation and soil management rather than intrinsic teak leaf morphology was responsible for those high erosion rates (Fernández-Moya et al, 2014).…”

“…Teak trees were also pruned to maintain 4.9 m (16 ft) of a branch free bole. Teak is characterized as dry season deciduous, but we found it does not lose all of its leaves at once at our site (Fernández-Moya et al, 2014). The topography of the area is characterized by both flat areas and areas with short and steep slopes (Hassler et al, 2011;Mayoral et al, 2018) and the soils are silt clay to clay with pH values ranging from 4.4 to 5.8 (Batterman et al, 2018).…”
