hello Ramesh
Teak does not tolerate waterlogging or infertile lateritic soils.
Tree spacing depends on a number of factors such as quality of the plants, site quality, cost of establishment, thinning regime, small wood utilization, planting system.
stumps are planted at a spacing 2.5m x 2.5m (Standard spacing)
Total number of seedlings per hectare = 1600 seedlings
Dig pits of 35 x 35 x 35 cm sizes. Refill the soil after seasoning and mixing with Farm Yard Manure and insecticides. On poor gravely sites, replace the pit soil by good soil.
Apply 50 g of fertiliser in pit at the time of planting and thereafter in split doses or as per the fertility status of soil.
Fresh leaf extracts of Calotropis procera, Datura metal and Azadirachta indica were found to be most effective against teak skeletonizer.
According to several studies teak requires relatively large amounts of calcium for its growth and development
