The learning programme

Seven modules, from preparing the site to marketing timber.

  1. Soil, water and climate

    Assess a site, understand a soil analysis and identify constraints before planting.

  2. Prepare for planting

    Choose plants, plan spacing, prepare the land and arrange access to water.

  3. Monitor irrigation

    Understand the irrigation system, check moisture and record observations.

  4. Care during the first season

    Plan maintenance, monitor weeds and track establishment and tree growth.

  5. Form the paulownia trunk

    Understand technical cutting, shoot selection and branch management according to the tree’s development.

  6. Spot problems

    Compare real examples and prepare useful photographs and information for the agronomist.

  7. Prepare timber for sale

    Understand quality criteria, measurements and the information buyers need.

Lessons connected to fieldwork

Planned format: a short video, annotated photos, a practical checklist and an exercise on your plantation.

Example: after the irrigation lesson, inspect your system and prepare observations with photos.
