Camboge-Inter cultivation

Weed once in three months and mulch the basin with black polythene or dry leaves to avoid drying. Clean the field free of bushes and thick shades.

The plant will grow fast from the second year onwards. Give strong support with casuarina poles.

Apply 10 kg cattle manure or compost per seedling / graft during the first year. Gradually increase the quantity so that a well-grown tree of 15 years and above receives 50 kg of organic manure per year. The fertilizers have to be applied in May-June.

By fifth year, the tree will have 3 to 4 meter height. At this stage, height of the plant may be maintained at 3.5 to 4 m and by seventh year at 4 to 4.5 meter by pruning.
