A study on demography,  growth  and survival of seedlings and saplings was conducted  in the Hutan Kintap  concenssion,  South Kalimantan,  Indonesia. The aim of  the study  was to monitor  pattern  of growth of seedlings and saplings among different types of logged -  over forest, including the newly  logged  -  forest, older  logged  -  over forests  (treated and untreated),  and un-logged-forest   patches.  The study began in 1991, and nineteen  of  0.25  ha plots  were set up in a total  of  six blocks  designated  as consecutively  A, B, C, D, E and F.  Block A was a newly logged  forest and had five plots,  and Block  B -  D were in forest which had been logged  in 1979.  Block B (five plots) had received no silvicultural  treatment,  while Block  C (five plots) and  D (one plot)  had been lightly  thinned  after  felling and  further  Block C received  a further  thinning treatment  Block  E (one plot)  had been  heavily  thinned,  and Block F (2 plots)  was an un-logged  control. The density of  seedling  varied within  the study sites, and averaged  from  47,000 ha"  to 121,000  ha·1â¢Â  The mean height increment  of  seedlings varied among block ranging from 2.9  cm year  to 10.5  cm year".  Block A had the highest general  mean  increment  of  10.5  cm year",  followed  in decreasing  order  by Block C of 5.4 and Block F, 4.5  cm year".  Growth  of  seedling in Block  B was low, even lower  than  the growth  in the un-logged  Block F. The difference of the increment among Block A, B, C and F however was not significant. The liberation treatment  in Block C significantly  resulted in a higher (p<0.01)  increment  (5.4 cm year") than that in  the untreated  Block  B (2.9 cm year").  Seedling  mortality ranged from 16 to 37 % year", and declined with  height  class. The  mortality  of  seedlings  might be related  among  other  factors  to the humidity  and density  of  seedlings per-unit  area. The density  of  sapling ranged  from 6,800 ha" to 7,700  ha" and they had diameter  growth  of  0.8 mm year" to  2.2  mm year",  and height  growth  of  12.6  cm year" to 21.8  cm year"1. The  difference  in the  diameter  increment  among  block  r, B,  C and  F was not  significant.   The  average sapling height increment  varied (but not significantly so) among Block,  ranging from 12.6  cm year" in Block A to 21.8  cm year" in Block C. Mortality  of  sapling was relatively  low  in all block.  Higher  mortality  in the un-logged  forest  Block  I and  in the untreated  Block B might  due to  the low  degree  of  canopy  opening.
