hello 12vdc kabayan, galing naman nakauna ka na ng maaga sa mga plantations mo...nice nice..
san mo pala nabili ung seeds mo for mahogany?honduras malamang yan...
alam nyo din po ba ung mga programs ng DENR na nagpapa lease ng lupa for 25 years renewable? ung IFMA 500 hectare minimum pero sobrang laki na ng kapital nun pang corporation nahehehe...iba padin ung private kasi mapapamana mo sa future generations...
plano ko din mag integrate ng agri-forest-poultry farmingat mag allot din ng kahit 1 hectare na rainforest....panay plans palang hehe
Its not a seed but a ready-to plant cuttings(if marcotted) nasa plastic bags. Sa Los Banos karamihan ng fruit trees. Pero later batch sa DENR sa regional office and some from seed farms ng dept of agri. I heared that program pero small time lang yung sakin. Low maintenance, long yeild at ang risk mo dito is the typhoon, forest fires, and squatting kaya dapat malinis. Maganda talaga magtanim ng magtanim and mixed agri, I have yet to inherit some cocoland na plan ko convert sa mixed-timberland, mahina kasi ang coco kung hindi nababantayan. I have some exploration na din sa organic farming using african worms and later Manila Elemi, nakakalibang. hehe
ah ok sir...dmo po ata nabanggit kung ung sa DENR or Los banos eh honduras mahogany...ung sa manila seedlings bank kasi panay philippine mahogany ang binebenta na seeds....
masaya yan bro...gus2 ko nga din nung organic farming....hirap nga lang kasi sa ngayon OFW ako...cgro pag established na ung farms ko at meron na akong ibang commercial sources ng income pwede na uwi at mag explore sa agri-forest-pultry farming...
nakita ko po ung cost and return analysis ng rubber tree...ganda kasi detailed...sana meron din ganito for mahogany at gmelina...based kasi sa rough estimation ni yebo eh annually, millions ang pwedeng kitahin ng isang gmelinat/or mahogany plantations per hectare...pero ung sa rubber tree nasa 106,000 annually...parang ang layo po ata ng discrepancy..unless magkaroon din tau ng same detailed cost return analysis for mahogany and gmelina....
sir yebo, parang di kasi aabot sa 100% more trees ang accomodate ng hexa vs square...pag cocompute mo, around 15% more lang po ung advantage...below is ung quote nung nakita ko sa link na eto, Horticulture :: Orchard Management
"b) Alternate row planting pattern
3. Hexagonal System: In this method, the trees are planted in each comer of an equilateral triangle. This way six trees form a hexagon with the seventh tree in the centre. Therefore this system is also called as 'septule' as a seventh tree is accommodated in the centre of hexagon. This system provides equal spacing but it is difficult to layout. The perpendicular distance between any two adjacent rows is equal to the product of 0.866 x the distance between any two trees. As the perpendicular distance between any two row is less than unity, this system accommodates 15% more trees than the square system. The limitations of this system are that it is difficult to layout and the cultivation is not so easily done as in the square system."
Mushroom spores ang tinatanim, nabibili yun naka-bottle, may different varieties. Dati sa bureau of plant industry meron nun.
sa area ko kasi compute yung x2, since aeea of a square = side^2 while area ng equilateral triangle = side^2/2. So kung sa distance mo i-based parang 15%, pero pag sa area x2. Try ko i-layout on paper...wait lang on the road ako bukas pa ko makauwi.
Havent read all of the posg here. ButId rather invest in high value crops rather than plant trees that requires approval from denr. Alam mo mo naman kalakaran sa gobyerno.

if long term investment, para sakin i prefer ung tree plantation kasi ung ROI eh talagang malaki...i think basta dumaan ka lang sa tamang process sa pagdedeclare ng plantation farm mo sa denr, i dont see any issue pag logging and processing na...
well para sakin lang naman, gus2 ko talaga i pursue ung long term investment na eto...and isang reason pa is medyo malapit ako sa nature...![]()
sir yebo, sa tingin mo ung soil quality na pwede sa sugarcane plantation eh maganda for mahogany plantation?
Ang nakita ko lang na requirement e well drained soil. Not recommended yung flooded (like rice paddy).
Yung sa square and hexagonal, x2 talaga ang difference e. Sorry sira scanner ko but i laid it out on paper, x2 talaga. By area kasi, not by length. Yung by length, sine 60 degrees = 0.86 kaya sabi sa nabasa mo e 15% difference lang. Pero by area dapat mo computin. Area of square = 2.5x2.5 = 6.25 square meter. While area of equilateral triangle is actually even smaller than 1/2 of a square of the same sides, A= sides^2(square root 3)/4, for 2.5 meters distance = 2.70 sq. meters. So pwede pa lakihan ang distance and still have 2x the number of seedlings per hectare. For x2 s=2.7 meters instead of 2.5 meters.
