Thank you Ramu Garu for your Posting and for your Observation.
No doubt NEEM Tree is having lot of Benefits having Medicinal Values as well as for protecting the Environment. Due to this reason several countries have tried for PATENT on this TREE. Our Government has taken a right decision in pretesting the decision of US Govt. No Doubt Indian Neem is having a very GOOD Medicinal Values where there is no such Qualities anywhere in the world. All these are OK . But it needs much time for giving Timber to mitigate the IMMEDIATE Needs of Timber crises in India as well as Globally too . I am making experiments on this Melia Dubia Tree since THREE Years. It grows well in rain-fed also it is drought prone TREE as far as my observation . Some plants were left in my Melia Dubia Nursery TWO Years back.We are all aware that we are experiencing severe drought conditions since 3-4 Years. Even on that condition also those Plants were grown well which can be seen in the Attachment.
No doubt as you said NEEM TREE Is a " KALPATRU". But it takes a Minimum period of 25 Years where as the Melia Dubia will provide the Timber in 1/3 Time while Providing a GOOD Biomass in helping the Environment.
No doubt we should Encourage NEEM Plantation in the wast Lands by giving more importance to this Melia Dubia in view of the above said reasons being it is considered as Fastest Growing Tree in the World.Also go through the Link where it was observed the Future crises of Timber.
