DEAR ALL

 I AM FROM MAHARASHTRA. IN OUR AREA ORCHADS OF CASHEW AND MANGO ARE THERE. CLOMORENA ODORATA IS VERY VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM THERE. PLEASE SUGGEST ANY  SOLUTION FOR CHEKING WEED OR ANY METHOD FOR UTILIZATION.

THANK YOU

Dear Prasanna ji, you can mulch around your trees with leaves and other waste materials like coconut shells etc.    This will hamper the growth of weeds like Clomorena odorata.  This will also  retain moisture and beneficial to soil.  It will reduce the water loss from the  soil, and improve soil structure.  Need for watering is also reduced and soil fertility is improved.  Please try.

Regards,

Mani.
