The study was conducted at Forest Nursery of Research Centre (School of Forestry and Environment) of Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Allahabad. The cost of production of ETP was estimated to give a clear picture on poplar nursery. The present market rate was taken for costs of fertilizers and other inputs and rupees per hectare is the unit. The viability of investment made in rising Populus deltoides ETPs increase with increase in size of the nursery. Instead of one-acre nursery, large nursery of more than two acre is the preferable size as at that size economies of scale become operative. Instead of initio nursery site already tilled agriculture land taken on lease reduce the cost and hence nursery raising should preferably be done on farm land.
