Gaharu / Agarwood.
Read this article, just to share, [URL=http://www.squidoo.com/agarwood]Production and marketing of cultivated agarwood I guess locally this Gaharu Technologies Malaysia is doing well. It's located in Gopeng, Perak. http://www.gaharu.com.my/index.html Checked on my 30 odd Gaharus, couple died due to dehydration. Shall plant up the rest soon. Contacted Gaharu Technologies Malaysia as I read from their interview, Gaharu is not supposed to be planted with rubber / oil palm & other trees, I wonder why. |

hi wanna ask, how about rubber plantation. It seems rubber will have bigger ROI than palm oil?

QUOTE(Materazzi @ Oct 30 2011, 06:28 PM) I guess there are more factors to consider, rather than ROI.Just like choosing a wife, beautiful or not? Big or small Would suggest you look at 1 Land size 2 Soil type 3 Accessibility 4 Collection center 5 Expertise / experience 6 Targeted harvest time 7 Investment budget 8 Helpers etc..... Agriculture is a mid to long term investment. |

Mr Farmer:
Haaa... It's a dilemma. This is an effect of high fertility in the soil. There's a lot of nutrients, a lot of water, but the plant outer layer just can't cope with the rapid growth of the inner cells, which results in "bursting", aka split stem. You know in expecting women, they get stretch marks as the pregnancy progresses right? Something like that. |

Anyone here in the commercial broiler industry?
Mind to share how to dispose closed house broiler manure, which is mixed with wood shavings? Or any other suggestions to recycle it with proven feasibility and demands? My farm is producing 30tonnes per cycle of this, and am facing some shortage in demand of it. Previously, oil palm estate owners take it from us, but it was understood that they don't need it so often? |

Hi Bump:
Maybe it could be useful if you first stated where your broiler farm is located, so at least we would have some general sense of direction. |

Moringa
Got an email about Moringa http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moringa Some claims that it's a miracle tree. In India & Africa, there are plantation just for Moringa, like our rubber /oil palm plantation. Just to share. |

QUOTE(Michael J. @ Sep 12 2011, 09:12 AM) kianwei: Sorry for late Reply M.JMaybe you could list some of the symptoms? I'd also look at the soil moisture. Palms look dehydrated. Can't determine properly from photos, but seems like some palms have quite a lot of rolled-leaves symptoms. This could be due to boron deficiency, or it could just be due to soil compactness and water table issue. Found any "blind-tips" on the young leaves? Or "crinkled-leaves" that look like zig-zag shapes? Can't see the older leaves properly, however does seem to have some chlorosis, so Magnesium deficiency could be present. I would be a little hessitant to say the same about zinc deficiency; no harm adding a little zinc now and then though. Would help palms grow better, and produce better bunches. Copper deficiency is also a question mark, so I would like to know if the palms were already characteristically limpy like in the picture, or was this a more recent development. Copper deficiency could also somewhat explain the rolled-leaves I see in some pictures. Overall, I believe you're on the right track in your recommendation lar. Place looks very familiar. Which part of Hutan Melintang is this? Towards the river end? ya, the plant show multi- Symptoms of mineral Deficiency, Owner have put fertilizer low in K previously. Place near to Sg. Tiang, beside hv a river end to Sea palm was show the character about 6mth ,some even longer. will arrange another site visit soon for follow up |

Sg Tiang area ah? Ah... Then add one more: Salt water intrusion. The CEC of the soil is likely to be messed up, that's why so many symptoms associated with mineral deficiency. If you have the opportunity, go to NALFIN near hutan melintang-bagan datoh there, and look for Rajendran, the plant breeder/agronomist there. Talk to him about this issue. They had some problems with saltwater intrusion from the Bernam River, and large tracks of palm plantings had been affected. I believe they've somewhat rectified the problem now.

These few days had been in my sifu's farm in Raub.
a) Something i learned, If You Are Able To Have Similar Quantity Output With Less Trees Why Be Kiasu and OverCrowd your farm. b) Pruning is one of the essential things in Farm Care. Mr Farmer : when are you coming back to KL ? Yum Cha |
