Advantages - AG Bio-tech Tissue culture Teak
- Left Image: Tissue Culture plants come with well established root system,grows straight,less branching.
- Tissue Culture plants developed from single stem tissues,isolated from known,established plus trees,with all desirable characters,.
- Hence Yielding is at expected levels.
- Thinning is not required.
Mode of Application/Agronomy
- Soil : All types of soil without water logging is suitable for cultivating Teaks.
- Climate : The optimum range of temperature is 28 degree C to 30 degree C. Dry weather after monsoon.
- Variety : Local
- Season Of Planting : Preferable in July to September. However, can be planted anytime except very high and low temperature.
- Spacing : The planting distance for monoculture system is 2m x 2m, while for inter-cropping, it is 3m x 6m
- Days to flowering : 90 days to 110 days.
- Harvesting : Tissue cultured raised plants which, are able to be harvested quicker (15 to 20 years) with the acceptable wood quality at national and international markets.
- Yield : At the best we may expect a tree to produce a maximum of 238 m3 of timber from 350 trees in 15 years under best conditions of intensive management.
