Reiterated difficulty re germination and also getting the correct variety. Melia dubia according to him is a much faster growing variety and seeds have to be collected from the correct tree. Melia azedarach germinates more easily but does not grow fast. He is in touch with Dr. Pathibhan of Forest College, Coimbatore. He is sourcing seeds from him. Mother trees are available in Kallar and in Mettuppalyam Block Centre. Melia is a good source for pulpwood but he was talking about 40 tonnes production per acre in 4 years i.e. Rs. 80000 per acre in 4 years at current pulpwood prices. This is under unirrigated condition without use of fertilizers. He was not able to commit what production was feasible under irrigated conditions with fertilizer use.
His contact number is +919442591411
