Sewage Water as Potential for the Tree Growth -a Study on Teak, (Tectona grandis) Plantation

Discharge of Sewage Water (SW) is primary source of pollution especially near big cities. But their irrigational and manural potential can he harnessed for production of arboreal biomass. In Maharashtra and adjoining states a large number of farmers are going for irrigated teak (Tectona grandis) plantations. Use of SW in this context will not only decrease cost of plantation by saving expenditure on manuring, but will reduce the pollution as well. In a case study of teak plan actions irrigated with SW, it was observed that growth in terms ofh eight and girth were significantly higher (P
