MANURES AND FERTILIZERS
The crop responds well to the application of farm
yard manure and compost.
During the first year of plantation, FYM @20 t/ha
is applied at the time of land preparation and the
same is continued in subsequent years.
Vermicompost @2.5 tones/ha can also be applied.
IRRIGATION
Aloe can be successfully cultivated both under
irrigated and rained conditions.
Provision of irrigation immediately after planting
and during summer season will ensure good yield.
However, the plants are sensitive to water logged
conditions.
Plants start yielding after eighteen months. Yield
could be as high as 60 tones of thick fleshy leaves
from one hectare plantation.
However, a conservative yield of about 50t/ha has
been considered for working out the economics in
the present model.
Suckers from about 50% of the plants can be sold
annually. Commercial yield is obtained from the
second year onwards till the fifth year.
TECHNICAL GUIDANCE
Technical guidance for Aloe planters is available
from different institutes and organizations,

Aromatic Plants and State Agricultural Universities and Regional Research Laboratories
