BALSA WOOD INDUSTRY - PAPUA NEW GUINEA 

Thank you so much for this video. I have been a balsa model airplane builder since I was 10. I am now 70. The finished product is wonderful to work with. It is an excellent wood that feels good to the touch. It is easy to carve, cut, sand, and glue. Wonderful product. Thank you SO much

I would like to point out to the research team that balsa is a hardwood, not a softwood. surprisingly, the definition of soft or hard has nothing yo do with being soft or hard, but small tubes within the grain of the wood.

A fantastic insight into this wonderful and versatile wood..Many thanks for uploading.

This just sounds so biased it's kinda funny, it's like one of those promotional company videos. The calm, happy music is the cherry on top

Talk Business, Balsa wood is not a softwood, it is classed as a hardwood. Classification as to whether a particular timber is hard or soft, is to do with it's cell structure and whether it is angiosperm or gymnosperm not how it feels to the touch. Hardwoods are angiosperms or true flowering plants that bear seeds in capsules while softwoods are mostly conifers or pine trees.

Should I know we're to get information about balsawood seeds

Fantastic thank you!

What a great industry. They are not just providing a livelihood for the locals but also practicing sustainability to the environment and the local cultures.

Hey uncle Malagat what a surprise. Me no save wow

Top video, Bula from Kokopo, PNG

Very interesting

A nice business to venture into. Utilizing unused lands for revenue generation.

Do you think it's a good idea to plant balsa trees here in the Indian subcontinent ? Can be a rich experimental experience ? And where can I find those plants ?

im from the model flying world we used Balsa so much up until about ten years ago now we use carbon firbre , fibre glass and foam i wonder what kind of shift in the market this created for Balsa farmers.

Bagus bagi saya tdk puas ddgn penampilan seperti itu

Where is balsa trees plantation ..plz one video sir ..pulll balsa information telll me sir quick past video sir .....

Why do i read multiple contradictory assertions? I still read many sources asserting that balsawood is so expensive because it is very slow growing. Yet here and other sources state that balsa is a very fast growing tree. Could someone knock some heads together and agree on the truth, or are there wide variations that mean both are true?

I wonder about the jungle forest that was there before the company cleared all the trees and moved all the wildlife to make way for their balsa crop.

Who buys balsa???

First 2 minutes of video wasted my time so thumb down.

I want to grow balsa wood on my lands. Anyone processing balsa in Lae? Who can i contact in Forestry in Lae to get more info/data.
