SANF GREENMENS PVT LTD- Wood Transportation In India
Transport has a very important place in agriculture. It is an essential component of post-harvest crop management, and rightly so, since every harvested crop needs to be transported, either directly from the farm to the market, or to the packing house and storage. Transport can be classified into two categories according to its purpose:
Remember, properly managed transport is efficient in delivering farm resources and harvested crops at the earliest possible time with the safety of the product intact. Transport hugely contributes to the preservation of crop yield and quality. When choosing the optimal mode of transport, farmers should consider a few points, including
Wood Transportation
Our agriculture sector is passing through some difficult times in view of the ever-increasing input costs, the dearth of labor, soil degradation, and issues related to climate change. With the increase in land values and a decrease in income from agriculture due to the various unfavorable conditions, more and more farmers are selling away their lands and shifting into other fields. With higher risks associated with short term crops (it is less remunerative as well), it’s time now for farmers to cultivate medium to long term agroforestry crops like Melia Dubia, Sandalwood, which are not only cost-effective but guarantees higher profits as well.
Agroforestry is the best option and solution for the above-mentioned problem, due to it being one of the fastest increasing sectors providing excellent income. Melia Dubia (Malabar Neem) is highly suitable for agroforestry and farm forestry for generating higher income. Most importantly, you can do this crop along with other agricultural crops (intercropping) and livestock (mixed crop-livestock system in an integrated farming system) on the same land at the same time.
The demand for timber is extremely high in India, and Melia Dubia assures timber sale only after 7 years only with a minimum 1-meter girth size, producing 750 kg to one ton per tree after 7-8 years in irrigated lands. One tree produces about 20 CFT of wood. The huge demand for Melia Dubia wood can be attributed to the govt imposed ban on the drawing of timber from Indian forests, with almost all naturally grown trees exhausted for the use of firewood, plywood, timber, etc. Due to this reason, presently most of the furniture is being imported due to lack of quality timber in the market, most of the timber for construction is being imported. Being the fastest growing tree in the world, Melia Dubia will give ample timber on its harvest. It is a fact that almost the entire plywood industry is importing timber for their raw material timber needs.
The main characteristics of Melia Dubia include
Intercropping and Mixed Cropping in Melia Dubia Farming
Near about every kind of fruit and vegetable can be grown as an intercrop in Melia Dubia plantation, starting from ash gourd, brinjal (eggplant), drumstick, ginger, papaya, turmeric, to mango, coconut, sugarcane, red gram, pomegranate, marigold. It’s also advised that you maintain livestock, such as poultry, sheep, cow, goat, pig, rabbit, etc. as livestock-based integrated farming systems can be instrumental in improving the livelihood of small and marginal farmers.
Malabar Neem Wood Uses
You can use the trees for timber after 10-12 years. Early harvesting is done based on the requirements of the farmers and wood industries.
As you can see, Melia Dubia wood uses are endless with huge market demand for each of the products and a dearth of supply at the same time. The benefits of Melia Dubia plantation are second to none.
