Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus)

Eucalyptus is the fastest-returning timber tree available and grows well across all climate zones throughout India. It can grow in most soil types and needs only low to moderate water, making it suitable even for rain-fed farmland. Our BSB 23 clone is developed for maximum biomass output, producing 20 to 58 cubic metres of timber per hectare every year.

Trees are planted at a spacing of 2 by 2 metres, allowing over 1,000 plants per acre, which gives you one of the highest yields from any timber crop. The first full harvest comes in just 4 to 5 years, after which the stumps naturally regrow on their own with no replanting needed. This regrowth can be harvested 2 to 3 more times, earning you income from the same land every 4 to 5 years, with returns of 5 to 8 lakh rupees per acre each time.

Eucalyptus wood is always in demand from paper mills, pulp factories, and rayon manufacturers, so finding a buyer is rarely difficult. These industries run all year round and need a steady supply, making Eucalyptus one of the most reliable commercial timber crops for Indian farmers today. Once the canopy closes in the first year, the plantation needs very little attention and practically looks after itself.
