best agroforestry trees to grow in India

India has introduced Agroforestry this means we can also grow trees for economic purposes in agricultural land. We can later cut it down without any permission and sell it for money. Previously we needed permissions and climate activists monitoring had prevented farmers and people in planting trees. This is one of the side effects of constantly pounding others to do the good for the environment.

1. Timber (tectona grandis) is one of them that is best in the value using for structural purposes. It takes 40 years to grow but it returns are high so it is worthy. Farmers can use it up in case of emergency or losses. These Are Mostly Known For Their Finest Quality Wood. It Can Be A Source For A Lump Sum Amount Of Money Years Later. It Is Certainly A Green Asset Which Will Never Lose Its Value. During The Dry Season The Tree Is Leafless; In Hot Localities The Leaves Fall In January, But In Moist Places, The Tree Remains Green Until March. At The End Of The Dry Season, When The First Monsoon Rains Fall, The New Foliage Emerges

2. The other cost-effective grass type is a bamboo plantation. Full maturity of the plant is just two years and the maintenance is much lower than any other tree.  Moreover, this does not require any permissions from the government while planting or cutting. Once cut they again grow itself without any replantation.  On top of that some of the incredible properties of bamboo. Bamboo is a miracle plant that can be made into a limitless amount of useful products. Our favourite product, of course, is an ultra-soft fabric we use to make our Cariloha apparel and accessories.

Easy To Grow - Can Be Grown In Indian Climate/Weather Conditions 

First and foremost there is no bonsai seeds in the reality it has tree seed. I planted 5 out of which 4 germinated. These seeds have a tough outer coat which makes water-impermeable hence no growth. So first either cut a small bit of pointed portion of seed using a nail cutter or rub it on sandpaper until inner portion is visible than soak it in water just overnight that's enough. After that put it in coco peat which is an ideal medium for seed germination. Then see the magic after a few days. 

All these plants require a Start with a mixture of agro peat, organic manure and soil in 20:20:60 ratio. Agro peat helps to increase water holding capacity of growing medium and also in easy penetration of roots. If good quality agro peat or manure is not available, you may use the available soil. Now open the seed packet on a white sheet of paper, to avoid them from falling out. Insert the seeds into the prepared mixture to half-inch of depth. Moisten the newly planted seeds only by sprinkling water. It is advisable not to directly pour water over the saplings as the force of water might damage them. Please note that all seedlings require a considerable amount of light and warmth to germinate. Germination may take place within 10-18 days, depending upon different varieties. Once the seeds grow into seedlings approximately around 3 inches, they can be transplanted to pots or desired areas. Diluted amount of organic pesticide could be used to control weeds/pests
