Whether it’s a farm stay, luxury eco-resort, private villa, or a community space, the Miyawaki method offers a fast-growing, dense, and native forest in just 2-3 years.

If you’re a landowner, eco-resort planner, or agritourism entrepreneur in Udaipur or beyond, here’s how you can grow your own Miyawaki forest with the expertise of Pukaar Eco Services.

What is a Miyawaki Forest?

Developed by Japanese botanist Dr. Akira Miyawaki, this method involves planting native species densely to create self-sustaining forests in a short time. Unlike conventional plantations, Miyawaki forests are multi-layered, bio-diverse, and require minimal maintenance after 2-3 years.

Why Miyawaki Forests are Perfect for Farm Stays & Eco-Resorts in Udaipur

• Revives native flora & fauna around your property.

• Creates cooler microclimates and improves soil health.

• Acts as a natural sound and dust barrier.

• Enhances the aesthetic and ecological value of resorts & villas.

• Offers experiential ecotourism — forest walks, bird watching, nature therapy.

• Supports SDG Goals 13 (Climate Action), 15 (Life on Land).

Steps to Grow a Miyawaki Forest (The Pukaar Approach)

1. Site Survey & Soil Health Check

• Assess soil structure, water availability, and existing ecology.

• Amend soil with compost, biomass, and microbial culture to revive life.

2. Native Species Selection

• Identify 50-60 native species including:

  • Canopy trees (Neem, Kadamba, Tamarind)

  • Sub-canopy trees (Ber, Kachnar)

  • Shrubs & understory plants (Bamboo, Giloy creepers)

• Focus on indigenous species adapted to Udaipur’s climate.

3. Forest Layout & Dense Planting

• Prepare the land with 1-meter-deep soil trenching.

• Plant 3-5 saplings per square meter in random natural patterns.

4. Mulching & Water Management

• Cover soil with organic mulch (dry leaves, wood chips).

• Install drip irrigation or manual watering system for the first 2 years.

5. Maintenance for 2 Years

• Regular watering, weeding, and monitoring until the forest becomes self-sustaining.

• By the 3rd year, no external inputs are required.
