Answer:
it is To do a type of agriculture
Today mulberry is cultivated in about 2.90 lakh hectares in India and the stress is upon productivity. Earlier the mulberry production per hectare was around an average of 12,000 to 15,000 kgs of leaf under irrigated conditions. Presently the average production has been tremendously increased due to the adoption of new technology like proper maintenance of mulberry garden and planting high yielding varieties while the average mulberry production per hectare has enhanced from 25,000 kg to 35,000 kgs.
Generally the Indian climatic conditions of all states are favourable to grow mulberry. The tropical temperature ranging from 240C. But at low temperature below 130C and above 380C the sprouting of buds and growth of mulberry will be effected. The favourable plantation season for mulberry is early monsoon. However, if abundant irrigation facilities are available mulberry can be planted at any time. The dormant season for growth of mulberry is November to March in temperate zones and rearing could be conducted only during may to October. In the tropical zones and rearing could be conducted only during May to October. In the tropical zones this problem does not arise and mulberry grows all through out the year under favourable conditions. Always plantation season must be selected as per the above specified recommendations; too cold or too hot seasons badly effect the growth of mulberry. The mulberry can grow very well, with in the range of 600 mm to 2,500 mm. Mulberry growth will be considered optimum in elevated areas above 600-700 MSL.
Soil matters more in the growth rate of any plant. Mulberry grows in a wide range of soils. Mulberry is a deep rooted perennial plant. Therefore, the soil with good water holding capacity and good air penetration is more suitable. Soils ranging from clayey loam to loamy soils, slightly acidic soils are ideally suitable for mulberry growth, slightly acidic soils ranging the pH from 6.2 to 6.8 reveals healthy growth of mulberry plant.
Propagation of Mulberry:
Mulberry can be propagated in two ways. i. Sexual, ii. Asexual
i. Sexual Propagation:
In mulberry the sexual propagation is through seedlings, particularly the seed propagation carries a varied population, this to utilize in selection and hybridization. For seed germination certain prerequisites are needed to be fulfilled such as selection of quality seed, preparation of land, and the seed should be selected such that can definitely germinate. This is possible only when the seed is subjected to suitable environmental conditions, embryo of seed is alive, and healthy, in internal conditions of seed are favourable for germination.
