varas

Portuguese to English Other Forestry / Wood / Timber
O programa teve o seu início em 2018, com a identificação dos proprietários a abordar para efeitos de uma melhor gestão florestal, diminuindo o risco de incêndio e melhorando a produtividade.

A ideia passou por levar a cabo práticas de manutenção dos eucaliptais privados que integram a limpeza da vegetação espontânea e a seleção de varas de forma mais eficaz.

I thinks 'shoots' or 'stems' is OK Ana
Ana Vozone Mar 8, 2019:
Thanks, Richard for your explanation. Hopefully Monica will read this. What do you suggest then?
Richard Purdom Mar 8, 2019:
I know I'm a bit late here, but these are not saplings at all, which are young trees, but new growth from coppiced eucalyptus which could be decades old. https://renconforestry.com.au/managing-coppice-in-eucalypt-p...
Neither are they basal shoots, which grow out from roots, as eucalyptus shoots grow from coppiced stumps. Normally, o 'desbaste' (thinning) leaves 3 shoots, one of the problems of poorly managed eucalyptus in Portugal is that the owners don't do this, leaving wild growth.

From the 2nd link (Celpa website):
SELECÇÃO DE VARAS
Após o corte, os gomos dormentes sob a casca darão origem a novos **rebentos ou varas a partir da base da árvore,** cujo crescimento permitirá regenerar o eucaliptal sem necessidade de replantação, passando o povoamento a talhadia.
