A major milestone from our R&D came in September 2023, with our first trial harvest of Laran and Albizia trees. Although the trees were only five years old, they had already reached merchantable sizes. Laran achieved a merchantable volume of 132m per hectare and Albizia at 211m per hectare. This yield shows that the commercial wood output from this trial harvest is seven times higher than the tropical logs salvaged from the same degraded forest.
