If you are looking to invest in Red Sandal cultivation, then you need the right climate, land, soil, and irrigation system for the healthy growth of the trees. You must plan out the complete process in advance, in order to get a high ROI (Return on Investment).
Climate Requirement
Sandalwood trees thrive well in the tropical and sub-tropical regions where the climate is hot & humid. The cultivation requires temperatures ranging from 12 degrees to 40 degrees Celsius and lands at reasonably higher altitudes (preferably 2000 to 3500 feet above sea level).
Soil Requirement
Sandalwood can grow in a variety of soil types including red clay soils, sandy soils, and clay-rich black soils, and can tolerate gravelly soil and rocky hard ground. The soil pH should range between 6 and 7.5.
Irrigation
Cultivating Red Sandal plants requires less water. The young Red sandal plants need to be provided with irrigation once in 2 to 3 weeks during summer. However, they may not require irrigation in rainy conditions.
Harvesting
The Red sandal cultivation profit to an investor is tremendous and it’s the only wood in the world to be sold by weight. Its market price ranges between Rs 3,000 and Rs 7,000 per kg, with the top-quality Red sandal sometimes sold at around Rs 10,000 per kg. Once a Red Sandal tree is eight years old, the heartwood of the tree starts to form and is ready to be harvested after 12 to 15 years from planting. Both in the local and international markets, there is a huge demand for sandalwood. So, you are sure to get high returns from sandalwood cultivation.
From an acre of land, you can expect a yield of 5000 kg of Red sandal. The cost of Red Sandal cultivation would approximately be around Rs 8 to 10 lakh per acre, but the returns can range from Rs 1.5 crore to Rs 2 crore.
