Summary:
The Betel leaf is cultivated in most of South and Southeast Asia. Since it
is a creeper, it needs a compatible tree or a long pole for support. Betel
requires high land and especially fertile soil. Waterlogged, saline and
alkali soils are unsuitable for its cultivation. The betel quid, or paan, as
consumed in various parts of the world, consists of:
- betel leaf with areca nut and slaked lime
- betel leaf with areca nut, slaked lime and tobacco
- betel leaf with tobacco, but without any areca nut
- betel leaf with areca nut and other spices or ingredients, but
without tobacco
- betel leaf with areca nut, tobacco and other spices or ingredients
Dried leaves and wood ash are applied to the furrows at fortnightly
intervals and cow dung slurry is sprinkled. Application of different kinds
of leaves at monthly intervals is believed advantageous for the growth of
the betel.
