Publication InformationTitle: Some wood of Hawaii... properties and uses of 16 commercial species Author: Skolmen, Roger G. Date: 1974 Source: Gen. Tech. Rep. PSW-8. Berkeley, Calif.: Pacific Southwest Research Station, Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. 30 p Station ID: GTR-PSW-008 Description: Koa is Hawaii's finest native timber tree. Unfortunately, it grows best in areas that can be converted into good grazing land, and most of the best koa forests have been cleared to develop pasture. Consequently, not much koa is left. Koa seedlings are also palatable to grazing animals, so that the number of young, vigorous koa trees is small.
