D1 Oils - Charts, News and Discussion
LBO - Wed, 14 Dec 05 :
Rebess if you do some research you will see that the first Jatropha crops are due to be harvested in the New Year.
Africa
On 19 January 2005, D1 Oils announced that it had identified approximately
17,000 hectares of existing Jatropha plantations in Madagascar and was in the
process of making arrangements to access the output from these plantations.
These Jatropha trees, currently used as supports for growing vanilla, are
already yielding seeds and the Directors expect the harvesting of this crop to
begin during December 2005
India
On 19 November 2004, the Company announced that Jatropha trees owned by the
Coimbature Jatropha Producers Association ("CJPA"), grown on 300 hectares in
Tamil Nadu had reached oil bearing stage within a year of planting, more than
six months ahead of expectation. The Directors consider it to be best practice
to prune the trees to encourage further growth, particularly in order to
increase seed productivity, and not to harvest these initial oil bearing seeds.
Accordingly, the Directors continue to anticipate that the first commercial
harvests of oil bearing seeds on D1 Oils' plantations (or those of its joint
venture companies) will be, on average, within a period of approximately 24
months from first planting
