Dear Mr. Sivakumar!
I am not disputing that tissue cultured trees proviode better output.
As you are dealing in Tissue Cultured Plant and have experience with the same, I want to understand the real difference in price. For example, you mention at some places that a plantation grower can get Rs. 10,000 per tissue cultured tree but that is not the case with normal seedling generated trees. Hence, I want to understand if the seedling grown tree will sell for Rs. 3000, 4000, 7000 or 8000.
Further, if a teak tree was planted 10 years back using tissue cultured stumps, will it fetch Rs. 10,000 per tree today at today's market price?
