Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted to know about the carbon stock by trees and associated underground vegetation under eucalyptus based-agroforestry system RBD design with three replications during 2016-17 and 2017-18 at farmer field of Jabalpur. The result showed that the weed control treatments increase the crop biomass production and minimize the biomass of weeds. The hand weeding found higher carbon stock 4.26 and 3.83 t/ha and lower in weedy check during both the year in wheat crop. When weeds are growing without restriction it stored 1.18 and 1.19 t C/ha during both the year. The eucalyptus stored 53.17 to 55.75 and 68.05 to 71.41 t carbon/ha during 2016-17 and 2017-18, respectively. The agroforestry system found higher carbon stock 17.18 to 18.24 and 17.13 to 18.16 t/ha yr-1 as compared to crop alone 4.26 and 3.83 t/ha yr-1 under Wheat and Eucalyptus tereticornis based-Agroforestry system.
