BUY LAND AS AN ASSET AND PLANT TREES FOR BUSSINESS


Many people think about investment but most of them are end up with the with no choice on what they can decide to go with. As in the other side there is a lot of opportunity to go with their investment. This we call it ...........

Silviculture Specialists in the Lowveld serving global customers including York Timber & Forestry (Long Ridge, Driekop), Komatiland Forestry (Wilgeboom, Uitsoek, Entabeni) and many more. Silviculture is the practice of controlling the establishment, growth, composition, health, and quality of forests to meet diverse needs and values. The name comes from the Latin silvi- (forest) + culture (as in growing). The study of forests and woods is termed silvology.

Forest regeneration is the act of renewing tree cover by establishing young trees naturally or artificially, generally promptly after the previous stand or forest has been removed. The method, species, and density are chosen to meet the goal of the landowner. Forest regeneration includes practices such as changes in tree plant density through human-assisted natural regeneration, enrichment planting, reduced grazing of forested savannas, and changes in tree provenances/genetics or tree species.

Silviculture is the branch of forestry concerned with the theory and practice of controlling forest establishment, composition, and growth. Like forestry itself, silviculture is an applied science that rests ultimately upon the more fundamental natural and social sciences.

Foresters develop and implement forest management plans relying on mapped resource inventories showing an area's topographical features as well as its distribution of trees (by species) and other plant cover. Plans also include landowner objectives, roads, culverts, proximity to human habitation, water features and hydrological conditions, and soils information. Forest management plans typically include recommended silvicultural treatments and a timetable for their implementation.
Forest management plans include recommendations to achieve the landowner's objectives and desired future condition for the property subject to ecological, financial, logistical (e.g. access to resources), and other constraints. On some properties, plans focus on producing quality wood products for processing or sale.

Good management plans include consideration of future conditions of the stand after any recommended harvests treatments, including future treatments (particularly in intermediate stand treatments, and plans for natural or artificial regeneration after final harvests.

The objectives of landowners and leaseholder influence plans for harvest and subsequent site treatment. In Britain, plans featuring "good forestry practice" must always consider the needs of other stakeholders such as nearby communities or rural residents living within or adjacent to woodland areas. Foresters consider tree felling and environmental legislation when developing plans. Plans instruct the sustainable harvesting and replacement of trees. They indicate whether road building or other forest engineering operations are required.

Agriculture and forest leaders are also trying to understand how the climate change legislation will affect what they do. The information gathered will provide the data that will determine the role of agriculture and forestry in a new climate change regulatory system

THAMANI YA SHAMBA LA MIPAINA/PINES HAIPO KWENYE WINGI WA MITI

Image
  Shamba la Miti ya Mipaina/Pines ambayo haijapunguziwa Karibuni tena kwenye SmartForestry na leo naomba kuzungumzia kuhusu Thamani ya shamba la Mipaina/Pines katika kilimo cha kibiashara kwa kuangalia faida na hasara za kuwa na miti mingi shambani. Tunaongelea Mipaina zaidi kwa sababu ndio miti pekee inayotawala kwenye soko hasa la mbao kwa sasa, hivyo ubora na thamani yake ipo zaidi kwenye unene na urefu wa mti shambani. Tukirejea kwenye maandiko yangu yaliyopita nimezungumzia kwa undani mbegu bora na upandaji miti, idadi gani ya miti inapaswa kupandwa shambani na umbali wa mti na mti unaopendekezwa. Unaweza rejea makala zangu zilizopita kwa maelezo zaidi. “Naomba nikazie kwa kusema kuwa Thamani ya shamba la Mipaina/Pines haipo kwenye wingi wa miti shambani, kitu cha msingi kuzingatiwa ni kuhakikisha unapanda kwa umbali angalau mita 3x3(Ft9x9) na unapunguzia miti kila baada ya miaka mitano ” Punguza angalau theluthi moja (1/3) ya miti iliyopo shambai kwako p...

USIYOYAJUA HUHUSU KILIMO CHA MITI

Tree Farmers from Sapanda village in Ileje sells the unpotted Pines seedlings in Isangati village in Mbeya rural, Feb2015. Kilimo cha miti kimepata umaarufu wa ghafla miaka ya hivi karibuni kutokana na sababu mbalimbali ikiwamo ya ongezeko la mahitaji ya mazao ya miti na changamoto ya mazingira. Katika Tanzania, Mkoa wa Iringa ni moja ya mikoa maarufu inayoongoza kwa misitu mikubwa ya kupandwa. Miti inatumika kwa mbao, nguzo za umeme, nguzo za kujengea nyumba na utengenezeaji wa karatasi. Ukiacha mahitaji haya tuliyoyazoea hivi sasa kumeibuka fursa nyingine mpya ambako mashirika ya kimazingira kutoka Magharibi yananunua hewa ukaa (carbon dioxide). Kwa maana hiyo unaweza kupanda shamba la miti halafu ukawa unakusanya dola kwa kuuza hewa ukaa wakati ukisubiri miti ikomae uvune mbao, nguzo au miti ghafi ya kutengenezea karatasi. Binafsi niliichangamkia biashara hii miaka minne iliyopita na 'I'm real serious with it'. Nimejiwekea lengo la kupanda ekari 20 kila mwaka...

UWEKEZAJI BORA KWA MAZAO BORA YA MITI

Image
Uwekezaji Bora. Uwekezaji wa kupanda miti unachukua muda mrefu kidogo ukilinganisha na mazao mengine ya nafaka hivyo toka muda wa kupanda inaweza kuchukua si chini ya miaka minne kwa Mikaratusi/Milingoti/Eucalyptus na miaka nane hadi kumi kwa Mipaina/Pines ndiyo uanze kuvuna. Unatakiwa kwenda nayo taratibu hivyo kila mwaka unaweza kupanda miti kiasi/heka chache ili utakapoanza uvunaji uendelee kuvuna kila mwaka na kupanda tena ulikovuna. NB: Lakini pia hili linategemea na malengo binafsi au kulingana na kipato cha uwekezaji. Kuhusu gharama za kununua na kupanda Miti zinatofautiana kufuatana na sehemu/mahali husika. Lakini kichocheo kikubwa huwa ni miundombinu na hali ya hewa nzuri kwa ustawi wa Miti. Kwa wakati huu maeneo mengi yenye rutuba na miundombinu nzuri yamepata wateja wengi na kupelekea wamiliki kupandisha bei ya Ardhi katika miaka ya hivi karibuni. Bei ya hekali moja kwa sasa inaanzia TSh 70,000/= kwa maeneo yaliyo mbali zaidi lakini inafika hadi 300,000/= kwa...
