Dear all,
Aloe vera ,only known plant to us ,with both MEDICINAL VALUES and Excellent NUTRITIONAL VALUES.
In the beginning of its cultivation number of farmers lost not only their investment but also their valuable time because.............
1. Aloe juice/gel/other product manufactureres/companies are not near to farmers,but there is big boom had been created for its marketing and its yield (economics)
2.Harvested aloe leaves should reach the factory in 4h/6h/8h otherwise leaves get spoiled by OXIDATION ( becomes brown colour) just like cut apple pieces.
3. Still there is no standard R&D agro technology protocol for its cultivation.
4.All of us know this plant grows without our efforts .so there is negligence towards its value.
5.Still there is no fixed price for saving/protecting farmer value. So there is speed for its expansion in marketing as well as growing.
6. today many companies are using even tender leaves for their products making.
Based on all above circumstances we have come to new protocol for its cultivation for giving maximum yield and returns.
Traders/Buyers/Companies purchase a Aloe vera leaf only when it reaches minimum weight 400gm/5oogm.They do not purchase leaves weigh less than 400gm.SoGENERAL PRACTICE BY FARMERS: Farmers always expect good returns and the same in this plant also.
So they cultivate one acre land with 10,000 number aloe baby plants for much yield. Still this yield does not cross 20tons/acre/annum.
Today minimum price for each ton is Rs.2000/-(rs.2/kg leaves)
20tonxrs.2=rs.40,000/acre/y
More or less rs.15000-20000/-investment is there.
So only rs. 20,000/-is net profit in the beginning year.This is being repeated in the next year and so on.
Our new Protocol:
Do cultivation of Aloe vera in one acre land with 8000/10000 baby palnts.
but you have to practice the following Agro-Techniques......
1.Apply/use Farm Yard MAnure prepared only from CoW Dung as maximum as possible (4-6tons/acre) as basal dose in the soil.If it is not available fully atleast use FYM with 50% cow dung.
why because the growth and development of Aloe vera is fast only with the usage of Cow Dung Manure compared to all manures and even chemical fertilizers.
2. Next important thing is " After 11/2-2 month period of cultivation , Leave only 12-10 large sige leaves and remove all other small leaves at base level.(minimum 16nos-maximum 25nos leaves have been observed in Aloe vera).
This technique speeds up the rate of growth of large sized leaves which we allowed for further growth. In 6-7 months all leaves of all plants reach 500gm weight and ready for harvestation.
we planted 10000nos baby plants. so each plant with 10-12 leaves.
10leavesx500gm=5kg/plant
12leavesx500gm=6kg/plant
so there would be 8000nos TO 10000nos plants
8000x5kg=40000=40ton/acre/ye
10000x5kg=50000=50ton/acre/ye
More or less we get 40 to 60 ton leaves/acre/y
40tonxrs.2000/ton=rs.80000/-
50tonxrs.2000/ton=rs.100000/-
if we minus rs.20000/-(investment) from rs.80000/100000(Gross)
we get net Profit Rs. 60000 to 80000(More or less)/acre/year
Pl go thru this and get your safety.However first you have to have marketing sources.
