This project sought to quantify the effect of logging on mahogany populations, to identify the life-stage limiting mahogany regeneration and assess the conditions necessary for sucessful mahogany regeneration. This project then aimed, but was unable to design a silvicultural system for the sustainable management of mahogany.
