    The present investigation entitled “Standardization of vegetative propagation through scion grafting of Bakan on the rootstock of Neem” was carried at the Department of Forestry, Nursery, and Main garden Department of Horticulture, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth Akola with the objective.The study was taken up with objective, to study effect of different months on scion grafting of Bakan on rootstock of Neem, to find out the suitable months for higher success of scion grafting of Bakan on rootstock of Neem and to study the growth performance of graft. An experimental research design was used in Completely Randomized Design with five treatments viz. T1 (Aug.), T2 (Sept.), T3 (Oct.), T4 (Nov.), and T5 (Dec.).The present investigation entitled “Standardization of vegetative propagation through scion grafting of Bakan on the rootstock of Neem” was carried at Department of Forestry, Nursary and Main garden Department of Horticulture, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth Akola with the objective. The study was taken up with objective, to study effect of different months on scion grafting of Bakan on rootstock of Neem, to find out the suitable months for higher success of scion grafting of Bakan on rootstock of Neem and to study the growth performance of graft. An experimental research design was used in Completely Randomized Design with five treatments viz. T1 (Aug.), T2 (Sept.), T3 (Oct.), T4 (Nov.), and T5 (Dec.). The data record in respect of days require for graft-take, percentage of graft-take, days require for sprouting, percentage of sprouting, number of leaves per graft were subjected to statistical analysis and interpretation of result obtained in the present investigation revealed that in different months treatments of months of Bakan grafting. The September (T2) was significantly superior in days require for graft-take, percentage of graft-take, days require for sprouting, percentage of sprouting, number of leaves per graft at 30, 60, 90 DAG, as compare to T1, T3, T4 and T5. It is indicated that the month September create favourable condition to enhance the vegetative growth of bakan graft.
