    This practice describes how Morginga plant can be propagated by air layering to promote vegetative propagation of trees and produce seedlings. Farmers nowadays might prefer propagation of moringa through air-layered cuttings rather than through seed propagation because through vegetative propagation the air layered seedlings represent the characteristics of selected mother trees better. Seeds, if sown in a usual way, do not show the character of mother trees that well. High yielding varieties of selected mother trees can be propagated in a better way using propagation through air-layered cuttings.
