Łomża researchers investigate the properties of the fast-growing Oxytree tree

14.03.2018

In the area of the College of Agribusiness in Łomża an Oxytree experimental field for research purposes was founded by scientists.

The main goal of the experiments was to determine the biometric features of a fast growing tree. Oxytree is a deciduous tree with unique properties. It is a resistant and undemanding plant. It is non-invasive and safe for the local ecosystem. The high quality wood obtained from Oxytree is a sought- after industrial raw material and material with high calorific value. In addition, after being cut, the tree grows back again.

Dr Eng Janusz Lisowski and Henryk Porwisiak, scientists from the Łomża College have already conducted research on growth, overwintering, presence of macro and microelements as well as Oxytree’s combustion heat.
