| Abstract | 2 Abstract: This study investigated distribution, fruit production and regeneration of Sclerocarya birrea (A. Rich.) Hochst, at Rashad District in the Nuba Mountains (latitude 11° 51´ N and longitude 31° 4´ E), Sudan. Data were collected from samples demarcated along transects in two sites in 2005 and 2006. The inventory showed that S. birrea populations constituted half (60 trees ha ) of the total tree density (120 trees ha ), 11 even poorer as only 10% of them survived after a lapse of one year. Protection of seeds and seedlings from damage by animals, fire and other factors can greatly improve natural regeneration of S. birrea. The findings of this study will support the baseline information necessary to put this species under proper management prescriptions to exploit its potentials in the northern savanna region. |
