Abstract:
A study was carried out to determine the growth rate of replanted Rhizophora mucronata
in different ages at Kelantan Delta. The planning was carried out by cooperation with
Kelantan Forestry Department since 2001. Only two species were replanted in Kelantan
Delta, Rhizophora mucronata(Bakau Kurap) and Rhizophora apiculata (Bakau Minyak).
But in this study, only species Rhizophora mucronata was chosen for growth rate
determination. Each island specified by certain age of replanted Rhizophora mucronata.
Pulau Layang-layang was habited for seven years old age; Pulau Bedal for five years old
age while Pulau Kambing for three years old age. That is important to find the status and
the development of replanted R. mucronata. The observation indicates the growth
parameter was decreased through the time of replanting at certain side of stem and root
parts.
