- Palmyrah pertains to
the subfamily Borassoideae of the palm family Arecaceae.
- Palmyrah (Borassus
flabellifer L.), a tropical palm, adorns the dry landscape of the semi
arid regions of Tamil Nadu (TN), Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, West Bengal,
Bihar, Karnataka and Maharashtra.
- Palmyrah is a dioecious
palm with the great majority of its economic products such as immature
endosperm, mesocarp pulp, tuberous seedlings obtained only from female
palms.
- The Palm tree
(Palmaceae) have been termed the princes of the vegetable
kingdom.
Most palms are a straight, unbranched stem, but sometimes a
branching stem, or even a creeping vine, such as the rattan.
- Palmyrah is generally
propagated by direct sowing at the time of monsoon.
Palmyrah thrives
well in arid zones and it is a tree of sub-tropical region.
- Palms, unlike
broad-leaved woody trees, complete stem caliper growth before beginning
substantial height increase.
- Palms have been
cultivated in Hungary as in most Central European countries since the
Baroque Period.
- Palmyrah palms are
found in abundance in the Peninsula. In some places they grow wild and
in others they are cultivated.
- Mechanisation has
become a buzz word in oil palm industry of Malaysia over the last two
decades. It is commonly recognised as a means of solving increasingly
acute shortage of labour in the plantation sector.
- The Palmyra, Coconut
and Sago Palms throw outspathes during the flowering season. When these
spathes are tapped, exudation of the juice begins.
- Many palm species have
been tapped throughout the tropical world in order to produce fresh
juice (sweet toddy), fermented drinks (toddy, wine, arak), syrup
("honey"), brown sugar (jaggery) or refined sugar.
- Climbing Technique is
used to identify the different parameters regarding the harvesting of
sap from date and palmyra palm trees.
- The African oil palm is
used in Africa for producing wine mainly through two different
techniques: one is destructive (incision of stem apex of felled palm)
and is preferred in Ghana; the other is not destructive (excision of
male inflorescence)
- Modern propagation of
date palms is based on tissue culture. This technique is essential for
the rapid propagation of a large number of trees and
is the basis for
the modern date palm industry.
- It has been ascertained
from a survey that about 22 lakh Palmyra palm trees, 10 lakh Date palm
trees and 1 lakh Sago palm trees exist in orissa.
- The State of Orissa has
occupied the second position in the country, after Tamilnadu, in Palmgur
Industrial activities.
It has been estimated that a single Palmyra
palm tree can yield Neera, gur, fibre and palm leaf articles worth of
Rs.600/- per annum. |
