Excerpt from Working Plan for the Changa Manga Plantation: 1916-17 to 1935-36 The first working plan for the Changa Manga plantation was drawn up by Mr. B. Ribbentrop in 1871-72. At that time the greater portion of the plantation for which the plan was made was not in existence and the plan provided for its formation and working up to 1880-81ir0m which year regular working was prescribed. This plan was not strictly adhered to and in 1836 a revised working plan was drawn up by Mr. W. E. D'arcy. The revised plan provided for the comple tion of the cutting over of the plantation, which had been started in 1881-82 under the Old plan, in a period of 15 years, so that the first rotation should have expired in 1895-96. Actually at the end of 1895-96, 5383 acres were in arrears and a fresh working plan prepared by Mr. H. A. Hoghton provided for the felling of these arrears in 1896 97, the felling of the rest Of the plantation being prescribed during the 141 years 1897-98 to 1910-11. The second rotation accordingly should have been completed in 1910-11, but when Mr. Hoghton's plan expired there was an arrear of acres owing to labour difficulties. N o adequate steps having been taken to improve the labour supply these arrears have even by 1915-16 not been cleared Off and what remains is prescrib ed for felling under the, .present plan together with the area which has been planted up since 1896-97. The plantation may be considered as having passed through one rotation of 16 years from 1881-82 to 1896-97. The second rotation comprises the 22 years 1897-98 to 1918-19. The third rotation should start in 1919-20. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
