Presentation transcript:

Bamboos grow more rapidly than trees and start to yield within three or four years of planting. Plantation establishment requires minimal capital investment and builds upon the inherent plant-cultivation skills of local farmers and foresters. Bamboos can be harvested annually and non-destructively. Bamboos are excellent for rejuvenating degraded lands and protecting against soil erosion. Bamboos may easily be intercropped with shallow-rooted crops. As well as the culms, all other parts of the bamboo plant can be used in rural livelihoods - shoots for food, leaves for fodder, and branches for items such as brooms and for firewood.

Why make toothpicks from bamboo? Bamboo wood is ideal for making toothpicks as it is relatively soft. Toothpicks are low-value products and the additional value imparted by processing into toothpicks is less than for many other products, such as woven items or flooring boards. The relatively cheap bamboo wood is therefore ideal. The market for toothpicks is very large and they are widely used throughout the world. Substituting bamboo wood for tree-wood is environmentally desirable and can help reduce the pressure on timber forests.

How are toothpicks produced? 1. Bamboos are split2. Splits are further split 3. Rods are dried into thin splits into 2mm-diameter rods in the sun 4. Rods are cut to length 5. The ends are 6. Toothpicks are sharpened packaged for sale

Requirements for success Sustained supply of bamboos suitable for toothpick production. Species with long internodes are preferred. Some technically-trained personnel to manage and maintain the unit. Start up capital. Access to markets and an innovative approach to packaging and marketing. Photo: End-sharpening machine

Financial aspects of establishing a toothpick manufacturing unit Capital costs for machines$13, 000 Other start up costs$ , 000 TOTAL$25, - 30, 000
