Gamar tree
“Although the Gmelina arborea is widely cultivated by farmers in Tamil Nadu, the only trees that can be cut down and sold are in Aranthangi, Alangudi, Anavayal Kaikatti, and Orathanadu in Tanjore district. The reason why the bud is popular in a shorter period than other trees is because of its good growth and maturity in a short period. It is also preferred by home builders as it is better than stainless steel and has more durability and longevity, firmness, and whiteness, giving it the desired color and texture. The level, door, window, etc. are made of knob wood. Our board must have matured for 15 years to pick up the board. To import the bulb trees needed for the board from abroad and Rome. These bulbous trees are lightweight and suitable for boarding. Those who want to cultivate the budding tree can place it in the dense planting system. Because the bud is the root plant. The side roots are minimal. In this method up to 1000 trees can be planted per acre. A tree can weigh up to a ton in 7 years without firewood if it is planted and well-irrigated according to the soil. I buy 1 ton of wood for Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 7,000. I am even willing to pay Rs.10,000 per tone for boarding.
important to prune
It is very important to prune the side branches as the tree grows. The bulbous tree grows straight and heavy. Grows even better if fertilized once a year. Wherever I am in Tamil Nadu, I look at the tree and take the price. I will pay the full amount as soon as the timber harvest is completed if the timber owner receives the citta from the Grama Niladhari. Demand for this specialty has grown significantly as a result of recent corporate scandals. Demand will continue to rise in the coming years. Therefore, farmers can confidently cultivate the bulb tree. There will be no shortage of sales. The demand for vampires is also likely to increase. Because most of the existing birch trees have been cut down. So neem will be less available in the future. As demand increases, so does its price. So if farmers focus on neem cultivation, there will definitely be good returns in the future Let's listen to Ravichandran from Pudukottai district, Anavayal village with 15 years of experience in bulb cultivation ...!
Maintenance for three years only!
"For me, there is no tree that can give me more income in such a short period. A tree between 7 and 10 years old weighs a ton. I have realized this from my own experience. 10 years ago I planted 30 cents of land at 9 feet by 9 feet with bubble planting. The tree would have grown well because of the watering and watering system. Last year I cut down four trees that were fenced. Each tree weighs one and a half tons. As the price goes up to 10 thousand rupees a ton, the tree gets 15 thousand rupees. I have not cut down the remaining trees yet.
One and a half years before the demand for this tree, I had planted a render acre at a spacing of 14 feet per plant and 13 feet per row. Up to 220 saplings per acre are required. Intercropping peanuts up to the first year, intercropping alternately. As far as the bubble is concerned, the tree will climb to a height of 20 feet. No need for more than that. As well as the first awesome, up to three years of regular watering and maintenance. All this Senchita ... the bubble can take a good yield. Planting red can be harvested from the 7th year to the 10th year. Even if the average price of a tree is 10 thousand rupees, for 200 trees per acre, the income is 20 lakh rupees. No problem with sales either. Do you know that there is a bubble tree near you ... Local traders come and pay and cut it down and leave. That's the decent thing to do, and it should end there. "
What ... you have in mind what the experienced farmer Ravichandran said! Now, it's up to you to decide! The scientific name of the knob tree is (Gmelina arborea). Melina's maiden name is reminiscent of the German scientist Johann Jorge Gmelina Arborea means tree-like. Kumilmarat is native to India. This tree is commonly found in all parts of India. It is also found in Sri Lanka, Burma, and Bangladesh. Grows fast and well in moist fertile valleys.

Rotten fruits should be mashed and the nuts should be washed and left to dry for two to three days. It is better to sow immediately as the germination of the seed is rapidly lost. Germination capacity is 10-90 percent. It is better to soak the seeds in water for 24 hours and sow. 60 g of seed is obtained from 1 kg of fruit. 1200-1400 seeds are available at 1 kg weight.
Nursery
Seeds can be germinated in a 10 m long, 1 m wide 15 cm high mother bed. Germination begins ten to 12 days after sowing. Will continue to germinate for up to a month. In 16x30 cm polythene bags filled with sediment, loam, and manure in equal proportions, the seedlings emerge from the mother bed for 10 days and are then transplanted into the seedlings from the mother bed. Saplings that have grown up to four months can be planted in the area selected for planting.
Planting method

This tree grows fast in places with beautiful soil. It can grow up to 10 feet tall in the first year.

The foliage of the budding tree is also used as fodder for livestock. Make matchsticks and matchsticks, wood suitable for making plywood. The wood is brownish-yellow in color, close in line, brittle, and easily sawed, making it an ideal wood for a variety of handicrafts and furniture.
Yield
Trees can be harvested from 8-10 years after planting. Let it re-emerge. These rejuvenating trees will grow well and bear fruit for the next 10 years. So it will be planted on one acre. Approximately 2000 cubic feet of timber is available from 200 trees. With this yield, at a rate of Rs.500 / - per cubic foot, timber worth at least 10 lakhs is likely to be available in 10 years.
