description Gunungkidul regency has a potentiality to be a producer of teak wood as raw materials for industrial purposes. This study aimed to find out the growth-rate and increment levels of teak trees from community forests in Gunungkidul regency and to correlate it with the rainfall factor. Three observed sites were Panggang, Playen and Nglipar. The observation was conducted during 3 years, i.e. 1st period (October 2009-September 2010), 2nd period (October 2010-September 2011), and 3rd period (October 2011-September 2012). The measurements of diameter were performed on trees in 3 diameter classes (high, middle, small) every in the end of the month by 5 replications of each class. The results were the highest average of diameter increment were 2.21 + 0.52 cm/year observed in Panggang for high diameter class as the lowest level was 0.33 + 0.19 cm/year observed in Nglipar for small diameter class. High diameter class showed the highest increment values. Most of the growth-rate levels of 1st period were the highest in every sites and diameter classes. Generally, the measurement of monthly increment showed the minimum or minus growth between May and September, the highest increment peaks were measured during November – February. Pearson’s correlation for all the data between the rates of increment and rainfall (r = 0.24) or rainy day (r = 0.28) were significant. Data correlation on the basis of gowth-sites showed the highest degree which were observed in Playen, especially in the 2nd period. The weak correlation generally indicates the other factors should be considered to discover the trend of the growth of teak trees in the community forests of Gunungkidul regency.
