FANTASIA

when seed is gathered from mature specimens, known as Mother Trees. These are tress that have been allowed to grow to their full height and are over 30 years old. The seeds are gathered in the tree tops and then brought back to the nursery to begin their life of being nurtured to grow into mature trees... the young Pulai trees are able to stand alone. The farmer continues to have an incentive to protect the trees as he will benefit from a share of their value on maturity. As the People's Forestry project is in its early days, Pulai trees from gardens, derelict rubber plantations are also sought out and farmers paid for a tree that up to now had no economic value to them.
