Varieties of Lemongrass

Some popular varieties include Sugandhi(OD-19), Pragati, RRL - 16 , PRC-1, CKP-25, CIM Krishan and CIM Sikhar

Climatic requirement for Lemongrass cultivation

Lemongrass grows well in loamy soil with PH range 5 to 8. It is a tropical plant and its growing period requires abundant sunshine. We avoid frost prone area for its cultivation because of its sensitivity to frost condition.

Soil requirement for Lemongrass farming

Lemongrass can be grown in heavy fertile soil to poor sandy loams; it can be grown in wide variety of soils. The ideal pH range for its cultivation is 5 to 7.5. It can maximum tolerate pH of 9.5. Soil with water logging results in poor yield and less oil. So it thrives best in well drained loamy soil.

Propagation of lemongrass cultivation

Lemongrass can only be propagated through slips (saplings). Healthy treated slips at least 2 years old are the best choice for commercial farming. It is in good practice to use at least two year old slips for propagation.

Land Preparation, Planting and spacing in Lemongrass farming/ cultivation:-

We plow the land 2-3 times by using tractors until the soil becomes fine-tilth because by doing so, it gives better aeration. Unwanted plants or weeds should be removed. After putting the manure, the land should be laid into beds .To avoid water stagnation trowel and level the field. Lemongrass slips should be sown directly (40-50 mm insertion). We get lemon grass transplanted into the field during rainy season. Established healthy seedling or slips of 20-50 cm long should be planted during rainy season having distance in row of 50-55 cm apart with plant distance of 50-55 cm within the row. Lemongrass slips or saplings should be planted firmly not very deeply in the soil. To avoid transplantation shock, transplanting is preferred in evening hour. Light irrigation is preferred after transplanting .Within 10-12 days of planting, gap filling should be done. The optimum sapling rate per hectare is 35000.

Irrigation in Lemongrass cultivation/farming:-

To get more yield, irrigation should be at right stage. Lemongrass can be grown at both condition as rain-fed crop or under irrigated conditions .Flood irrigation is best suited for this crop .The irrigation frequency depends on climatic conditions and soil moisture holding capacity .In hot and dry climate , it requires irrigation at 10-12 days interval  and stop irrigation 7 to 8 days before harvesting the grass.

Manure and fertilizers in Lemongrass cultivation:-

Farmyard manure of 10 tons/ha (applied during land preparation) and NPK 20:50:40 kg/ha .Top dressing should be done with "N"(nitrogen) of 15 kg /ha in 3 intervals, which should be 3, 6 and 9 month after planting.

Pest and diseases in Lemongrass cultivation:-

Following pests and diseases are found in Lemongrass cultivation -

Pests:-

White grubs, Aphids, Thrips and termites are the common pest found in Lemongrass cultivation.

Control Measures:-

White grubs and termites are controlled by flood irrigation, water kills these pests. Thrips and Aphids controlled by spraying Azadirachtin 1 %( 10,000 ppm) @5ml/lit water.

Diseases:-

Curvularia blotch and Ellisiella blight diseases can be controlled by foliar application of Bordeaux mixture 1% of 2 weeks interval at initial stage of disease attack.

Location of the Farming Site:-

The site for the project has been selected after very careful observation of various factors. The availability of correct cultivation area, electricity, manpower are the advantages of this site at Chukru, Block Torpa, Khunti.

Yield in Lemongrass cultivation:-

Many factors depend on the yield of the crops, factors like cultivar, plant age, soil, irrigation, climate and cultivation practice. However an average yield of 50 - 65 tons/ha/year can be obtained under ideal conditions. 220-250 kg /ha may be obtained from 2nd year in case of well irrigated crops. Oil yield is low in first year, thereafter oil yield increases and gradually decreases after 4th year.

Oil Yield:-

220-250 kg /ha may be obtained from 2nd year in case of well irrigated crops. Oil yield is low in first year, thereafter oil yield increases and gradually decreases after 4th year.

Distillation:-

For good practice, it is advised to use wilt grass for 24 hr at least. Wilting allows the larger quantity of grass to be packed, due to wilting, moisture content gets reduced and more oil can be extracted, thus economizing the fuel use .The equipment for steam distillation consists of a boiler to produce steam, a condenser, 1 to 3 separators and a distillation tub. It is preferred to use chopped grass into shorter length, to obtain the maximum yield of oil and to facilitate the release of oil, further advantage of chopping grass is that more grass can be charged into the container .The steam is allowed to pass into the container with the steam pressure from 1.5 to 2 kg in the boiler .The mixture of water and lemongrass oil passes into the condenser .The distillate collects in the separator as the distillation process goes on . As the oil is lighter than water and insoluble floats on the top of the separator and continuously drawn off, Lemongrass Oil is then filtered.

The Technology / Process & the plant & Machinery:-

The promoter , Apna Anantha Farming Private Limited (mobile No. – 7903434046/7739648275) is well versed with the required plant & machinery, implements & Manufacturing process. The unit has already procured the necessary plants & equipment of high quality for manufacture of quality products which is further helping the unit in establishing the product in the market.

The Raw - Materials:-

The raw materials required for this project are the Aromatic Plants Leaves which are in abundance with the promoter, Apna Anantha Farming Private Limited.

The Auxiliary System:-

The auxiliary systems required for lemon grass farming are distillation plants or units, water pumps, D.G sets, electrical connections, equipments / appliances, testing and laboratory equipments, weighing machines, General Tools & implements, agriculture equipments etc. and the promoter, Apna Anantha Farming Private Limited (mobile No. – 7903434046/7739648275) is having all these.

THE PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE:-

The promoter, Apna Anantha Farming Private Limited (mobile No. – 7903434046/7739648275) is having all kinds of Technocrats, Managers, Technicians, skilled/ unskilled staff and we are guided by professional consultants/scientists. A Practical and scientific approach will be adopted for the project implementation. 

Project & the Promoter:-

Promoters have the only Moto to produce aromatic oil items of the best quality and induce new ideas and effectiveness at a comparatively low priced for the benefit of the masses. The company is having about 120 acres of land to cultivate moringa/drumstick and lemon grass and extract lemongrass oil there from.

Harvesting:-

It should be harvested at right stage for high oil yield. Crops get ready within 3-6 month after planting. Harvesting should be carried at an interval of 3-4 months and up to 5 years. Cutting of grass should be done by leaving 15 cm from the ground level. Keep the grass in shade for about 24 hours after harvesting. Then send it to steam distillation for oil extraction.

Distillation:-

For good practice, it is advised to use wilt grass for 24 hrs at least. Wilting allows the larger quantity of grass to be packed, due to wilting, moisture content gets reduced and more oil can be extracted, thus economizing the fuel use. The equipment for steam distillation consists of a boiler to produce steam, a condenser, 1 to 3 separators and a distillation tub. The distillation tub is made up mild steel or stainless steel, and perforated bottom over which grass rest. Steam inlet pipe remains at the bottom of the tub. A removable lid is fitted on the top. Loading and unloading can be done in perforated cage with iron chains, which can be lowered in the container with the help of chain-pulley .varieties of condenser are available, but tubular condenser are best among them .The condenser is having one inlet and one outlet by which cold water is made to flow through the chamber to cool the pipes, when the distillate flow through them. It is preferred to use chopped grass into shorter length, to obtain the maximum yield of oil and to facilitate the release of oil, further advantage of chopping grass is that more grass can be charged into the container .The steam is allowed to pass into the container with the steam pressure from 1.5 to 2 kg in the boiler .The mixture of water and lemongrass oil passes into the condenser .The distillate collects in the separator as the distillation process goes on .As the oil is lighter than water and insoluble floats on the top of the separator and continuously drawn off, Lemongrass Oil is then filtered.
