Abstract

The tree Pterocarpus angolensis is an important component of the dry woodland savanna of northern Namibia. Its timber provides the basic resource for much of the carvings in Namibia. Unfortunately little management, particularly regeneration, has been implemented in the country and current exploitation practices amount to mining of the species.
