Abstract:
A field experiment entitled “Effect of organic manure and irrigation schedule on growth and yield of Sarpagandha under teak and Poplar based Agroforestry system” under the agro climatic conditions of Northern India was conducted at college of forestry, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture Technology and Sciences Allahabad. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design, having organic manures and irrigation schedule 15 treatment combinations, each replicated three times. Recorded data were analyzed the method by Panse and Sukhtme (1967). Application of T₁₂ 100% FYM+ 20 days Irrigation resulted in higher plant growth viz., plant height (67.58cm), number of leaves per plant (220.25), number of branches per plant (32.25), collar diameter (15.70cm) and root length (55.41cm) and yield parameters viz., root fresh weight (30.52gm), root dry weight (14.52gm), root yield (44.63g) plant^-1, root yield (847.97kg) plot^-1 and root yield (22.04q ha^-1).
