Hi Sir,
I have about one and half acre of slopy open land in Malnad area of Chickmagalur District of Karnataka. I wish to plant silver oak plants in it at 15 feet intervals. In between I wish to grow guava fruits. Please advice me on the forming procedure of the same like -
1. When can I plant the silver oak plants? Normally by June 1st week the rainy season will start in our area.
2. Which verity of silver oak plants are suitable for malnad (Koppa Taluk) terrain?
3. In the land there were rubber trees earlier and they were cut to the base a year before. There are existing rubber tree roots in the land. Is it required to remove them? I am thinking of retaining them as it is which may help to hold the soil stability in the rainy season as the land is slopy and soil may get washed down if the soil is made loose by removing roots of rubber trees.
4. When can I plant the guava plants? Is it ok to plant the guava plant saplings along with silver oak plants OR should I have to wait for one or two years to enable silver oak trees to grow?
5. Which verity of guava plants are suitable for malnad (Koppa Taluk) area of slopy terrain?
Regards.
