We are very much glad to know your interest in the Beema Bamboo plantation.

We are the developer of the bamboo variety "Beema bamboo" and propagating Beema bamboo. We are one of the leading Plant Tissue Culture lab in India, in existence for the last 24 years, supplying bamboo plants throughout the world. We subculture over 1 lakh cultures every day and supply 10 million TC plants every year.

We produce and supply tissue culture plants of many bamboo species such as Bambusa balcooa variety "Beema bamboo", Bambusa tulda, Dendrocalamus asper, Dendrocalamus stocksii, Dendrocalamus hamiltonii and Thyrsostachys oliveri, Dendrocalamus brandisii, Bambusa nutans

Beema bamboo is a clone of bamboo developed by us, selected from the open-pollinated population of Bambusa balcooa found in North Eastern India followed by multiplication through Tissue Culture. This new high yielding clone of bamboo – BEEMA BAMBOO is responded to field management practice and yields according to the Agri-inputs.

Our Beema bamboo can be grown everywhere from small farms to large scale farms, and is,
a. A Fast growing bamboo species
b. Thorn less
c. Thick walled
d. High yielding
e. Suitable for cultivation as field crop
f. Clump forming and non-invasive
g. Sterile, do not produce seeds and do not die, and hence once planted, replanting is not necessary even for centuries.
h. Has a Calorific value of 4000 KCal energy and 1 to 2 % ash content and highly suitable for both combustion and gasification systems of power generation.

Silvicultural management techniques :
The species is propagated vegetativley by branch cutting and culm cutting pretreated with growth promoting substance such as IBA or NAA or mixture of both. Cutting from 2-3 years old culms and basal part of the culm gavemaximum rooting response (Seethalakshmi et al.,

Pests & Diseases & their control:
This species is affected by bamboo blight caused by Sarocladium oryzae. Blight affect the culm in August, the disease progresses by November.
