Spread over an area of about 0.65 ha of land the Clonal Propagation Centre (CPC) has Bari, Bom, Makal, Paora, KanakKaich, Barak, Mritinga and Rupai. At least 10 candidate plus clumps were selected from different sources in a species, making a block having 5 replication each (clonal plants). The culms are coded year wise in various colours. Regular maintenance like weeding vine cutting etc. are done every year to keep track of growth.

Propagation nursery

Nursery polybag plants of various species of bamboo, cane, agar and piper are raised.

Experimental Plots:

Plantation of some economically important NTFPs like Andrographis panciculata, Asparagus racemosus, and Homalonema aromatica and 0.25 ha of Lagerstroemia parviflora, Curcuma caesia and Thysanolaena maxima is done for research on productivity and the survival percentage is above 90%.
