    Abstract

    The aim of this study was to monitor the test plantation of fast-growing tree species. With the measurements carried out on selected plantation, the production potential of two different clones (Salix sp., clone Tordis and clone Inger) as an alternative energy source was determined. The measurements were performed three years in a row. Growing stocks of Inger and Tordis clones in the second year of coppice growth (2011) were 7.98 m3/ha and 10.57 m3/ha, respectively. The increment between the first and second year of coppice growth of Inger and Tordis clones were 6.40m3/ha and 8.54m3/ha, respectively. The amount of biomass yield produced in the second year of coppice growth for Inger and Tordis clones were 4.58 t atro/ha and 3.49 t atro/ha, respectively, indicating an improvement of biomass yield compared to the previous year.
