La fréquence des éclaircies est liée notamment à l'intensité de prélèvement et aux caractéristiques de la plantation. Ainsi, plus l'intensité est forte, plus on pourra retarder l'éclaircie suivante et en diminuer le nombre. [...] Tout comme le moment d'intervention, la fréquence des éclaircies dépend de la productivité de la plantation.
