Develops and supplies fruit saplings. Specializes in
Apple Ber
Something new, something unique is what the buyers seek from their
vendors and agriculture business is no exception to this fact. It
is well followed and practiced by Mr. Nitin Vaishnav, founder Green
Culture Nurseries & Farm. Five years back he imported Apple Ber
tree from Thailand, developed the saplings and created awareness on
the fruit amongst his buyers. “Apple Ber is new thing in India.
Farmers do not know much about apple ber cultivation. We sell the
sapling and give guidance for one year,” he shares. “We visit our
buyer’s farm and collect the details on soil and water quality,
other crops grown at the farm etc. Based on the information
collected we prepare the schedule for them that lists the details
on apple ber farming like spraying, farming inputs to be used and
so on.” Farming guidance is offered exclusively to the buyers free
of cost.
Sharing his initial years experience he says, “In first year
itself after we got the tree from Thailand it yielded good quality
fruits. Then we developed saplings within a year.” Cost of
cultivation and maintenance is less for the plant.
Apple Ber tree is recommended for the regions having water scarcity
as it requires very less water. It survives easily even if not
irrigated for a month. It can be intercropped with all crops.
“Every year we have to cut the tree from bottom and only one piece
is left to grow. This is because the tree will give more fruits
next year,” he shares the details on pruning. It grows well in all
types of soil and is apt for all climatic conditions except colder
regions like Jammu and Kashmir. “We have developed farm in
Rajasthan and Hyderabad. These are operating very well,” informs
Mr. Vaishnav.
It surely is profitable for farmers to grow apple ber as
after completing a year tree yields 40-60kgs fruits, in 2nd year
80-10 kgs and in 3rd more than 100kgs. “A farmer can easily earn
Rs. 5lakhs/annum. It has medicinal properties hence the demand is
surely to increase,” he adds. Ideally it must be planted after
summers as it starts flowering from September onwards and yields
from January-March. In one acre 400-500 plants can be
cultivated.
Green Culture Nurseries & Farm was set up in the year 2009 in
Malegaon, Nasik. Different fruit plants are developed at the
nursery but specialization lies in Apple Ber and pomegranate. Mr.
Vaishnav’s parents also used to run a nursery hence using his
on-field experience since childhood he ventured into this business.
“I know about the seeds and farming well because of my background,”
he adds. “Sapling development depends on the trees and grafting.
There are 5-6 types of grafting.”
Grafting is crucial for early yielding and long life. “If the plant is not grafted then it takes 5years to fruit. If grafted, it takes less than 6months to fruit. Life span is 40years,” he explains. It takes about 10months to develop a sapling due to grafting.
Hard plants are sold at the nursery hence the percentage of survival rate is almost 100%. “We keep the young plants first in poly house then in shade net and finally we wait till the plants become hard before selling,” informs Mr. Vaishnav. Mother plants of fruits variants are maintained with care at the nursery owned farm therefore it is disease free. “We are sure that we are not giving disease through the saplings,” he claims.
Nursery owners and farmers are the target buyers. Apple Ber costs Rs.35/sapling and pomegranate Rs.8/plant. Plants are delivered to the customer’s location if the purchase is more than 1000 saplings with minimal additional charges. “We have supplied to 37 nurseries across India like Rajasthan, MP, Karnataka, Gujarat, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Chattisgarh etc. We have second nursery in Gujarat,” he informs. Stock of 3lakhs saplings are always maintained at the nursery. Plants respond well to organic as well as chemical farming yet organic farming is preferred because soil fertility is preserved while chemical fertilizers harms the soil.
In time to come Mr. Vaishnav wants to develop a program to improve farmers’ skill and get them new varieties of saplings. “As we are facing lot of water problem, I want to find out a solution to support farmers,” he concludes.
