Eucalyptus is propagated through seed. 4-5 months old seedlings are planted with the commencement of South West monsoon.

The crop can be grown in acidic to slightly alkaline soils with good organic matter. The seeds should be sown as fresh as possible.

Clear the land of jungle growth. Take pits of size 45 cm x 45 cm x 45 cm at a spacing 2 m x 2 m at least one month prior to planting and allow to weather.

Fill up the pits with soil completely. The seedlings are planted in pits. After planting, press the soil around and form mound to prevent water stagnation.
