description Forest plantations for energy purposes are aimed at obtaining large amounts of biomass through short-term rotations. The aim of this work was to study the dendroenergetic potential of two clones of Eucalyptus sp. growing in the hills and sandy plains of Corrientes, Argentina. The relationships between biomass productivity and forestry, climatic and environmental variables were analysed. Survival and productivity in volume were high. Significant differences were recorded between the clones evaluated for biomass production based on their compartments and age. At 24 months, the stem biomass production for a management scheme of 3333 ha-1 trees was 32,245 Mg ha-1 and 38,543 Mg ha-1 of the pure and hybrid clone, respectively. In a context of lack of limitations, from the climatic point of view and site conditions, the annual biomass productivity can be associated with the planting density. In low-fertile fertile soils, both clones register high productivity in high planting densities schemes. The promotion of the generation of renewable energies from forest biomass is an opportunity for Corrientes, since it has the resource and favorable climatic conditions, although it is necessary to continue studying the development of these systems in fragile environments, identifying management practices that reduce their impact and favor sustainable management.

Las plantaciones forestales con fines energéticos tienen como objetivo la obtención de grandes cantidades de biomasa mediante rotaciones de corta duración. El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar el potencial dendroenergético de dos clones de Eucalyptus sp. creciendo en las lomas y planicies arenosas de Corrientes, Argentina. Se analizaron las relaciones entre productividad de biomasas y variables silvícolas, climáticas y ambientales. La sobrevivencia y la productividad en volumen fue alta. Se registraron diferencias significativas entre clones para la producción de biomasa en función de sus compartimentos y edad. A los 24 meses la producción de biomasa de fuste para un esquema de manejo de 3333 ha-1 árboles fue de 32,2 Mg ha-1 y 38,5 Mg ha-1 del clon puro e híbrido, respectivamente. En un contexto de falta de limitaciones, desde el punto de vista climático y condiciones de sitio, es posible asociar la productividad anual de biomasa a la densidad de plantación. En suelos poco fértiles, ambos clones registraron alta productividad en altas densidades de plantación. El impulso a la generación de energías renovables a partir de la biomasa forestal es una oportunidad para Corrientes, ya que cuenta con el recurso y las condiciones climáticas favorables, aunque es necesario continuar estudiando el desarrollo de estos sistemas en ambientes frágiles, identificando las prácticas de manejo que disminuyan su impacto y favorezcan un manejo sustentable.
