Hence, anybody can grow sandalwood without any apprehensions. The government is also giving subsidy to grow sandalwood through State Medicinal Plants Authority and Horticulture Department.

A large number of farmers and individuals with large land holdings have taken up commercial plantations in Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Rajasthan. Presently, there is no natural regeneration of sandalwood trees in the Madhya Pradesh.
