Give me a brief knowledge about harvesting practices & yields ?
Ans :The capsules of Jatropha curcus are plucked after maturity. Depending upon the location, land and soil features rainfall pattern, irrigation facilities, manuring and overall agronomic management, the seed yield of Jatropha plants vary considerably. In the first year the yields are very low about 250-500 gms/plant in subsequent years it increases from 2-3 kg after second year to about 6-8 kg per plant after five years. A fully grown tree may yield upto 10-12 kg under ideal situation.
