Abstract

The survival and growth of Adansonia digitata tall bare-roots were tested in farm fields at Bankass (Mali). Saplings were planted by involving l4 farmers. The survival rate, the diameter at the basis, the diameter at breast height and the total height were recorded at three and fifteen months after planting. The mean survival rate after three months was 98%, and it decreased to 82% after 15 months. The mean survival rate of A. digitata tall bare-roots was higher than of those planted by using container seedlings (52–59%) and short bare-roots (
