Semal Tree
The Semal tree, prevalent throughout the country, stands out with its distinctive red flowers and white cotton-filled fruits. Adorned with spines on its trunk, it can reach impressive heights of 20 meters or more. Additionally, its significant carbon-fixing ability stems from its substantial trunk and towering stature. Planted along boundaries and urban areas, it contributes to carbon sequestration. Farmers can harvest and sell their fruits in the market, reaping financial rewards and positive impacts on their lives.
Impact in Numbers
Carbon Fixed 500 Kgs.
CO2 reduction from the atmosphere by 1800 Kgs.
Increase in farmer income by 1500 INR per year after maturity.
Tree Dimensions on Maturity.
Maximum height of the tree (m) | 20 |
Tree canopy spread (m) | 10 |
Tree trunk diameter (inches) | 25 |
Value to the farmer
The tree excels at carbon fixation, making a positive environmental impact. Additionally, farmers can sell cotton within its fruits, providing farmers with an additional source of income. Furthermore, the presence of large trees offers various benefits to farmers.
About the Project – Plant a Semal Tree
Upon receiving the saplings, farmers will also receive comprehensive technical knowledge of their cultivation. This long-term project aims to provide continuous support to farmers for a duration of 3 years. Additionally, farmers will have the opportunity to be part of a group. They will be encouraged and educated about the benefits they can expect from growing these trees. Furthermore, these trees will be an integral component of a larger set distributed to farmers, contributing significantly to the improvement of their economic status.
Technology
The project utilizes geotagging to track the location of the trees. GPS technology is employed to mark the area boundaries accurately. Furthermore, farmer details, along with corresponding images, are recorded and documented. All the relevant data is efficiently captured and directly stored through mobile apps, facilitating real-time field data collection. Moreover, the process includes calculating the yearly carbon fixation, using expert-developed equations for various tree species in dedicated applications and reports. The project ensures total transparency throughout the data acquisition, storage, and analysis processes.
Impact assessment
The team actively measures the impact project generates on wildlife and farmers. Regular intervals are set for capturing all the relevant data, which is then analyzed by comparing it with the previous data collected on the same parameters, calculated a few months ago. Moreover, the observed changes are carefully measured against the planned results, enabling a comprehensive assessment of progress and effectiveness. Additionally, this data-driven approach ensures that the project’s impact can be accurately evaluated and necessary adjustments can be made to achieve the desired outcomes.
Reports
The project reports are prepared and sent to the contributors. The report covers the following
1) Trees status as of the last visit made
2) Any mortality in the trees planted
3) Carbon fixed in MT from the start of the project
4) Economic impact on the farmers.
5) Ecological impact created.
