dc.description.abstractThe present investigation entitled “Varietal Performance of Marigold in Harad (Terminalia chebula) Based Agroforestry System” was carried out at the experimental area of Division of Agroforestry, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences & Technology, Jammu, Main Campus, Chatha, Jammu and Kashmir during 2020-21.The study was undertaken with two objectives (1)To investigate the effect of tree component on the growth and yield of Tagetes erecta.(2)To work out the economics of harad -marigold based agroforestry systemThe experiment was laid out in RBD (Randomized Block Design) having nine treatments with three replication each.The treatment included three Marigold varieties Pusa Basanti Gainda,Pusa Narangi Gainda and Medium-M45 under Harad (Terminalia chebula) tree canopy at two distances D1: 0-1m, D2: 1-2m from the tree and three separate sole cropping of Pusa Basanti Gainda, Pusa Narangi Gainda and Medium-M45. The result revealed that the growth and yield of marigold varieties Pusa Basanti Gainda, Pusa Narangi Gainda and Medium-M45 was suppressed by Harad (Terminalia chebula) at 0-1m and 1-2m distances from the tree due to competition for light and other natural resources. The Medium-M45 performed better than the Pusa Narangi Gainda and Pusa Basanti Gainda under canopy at all distances from the tree. The growth and yield of marigold varieties was highest in control (open conditions). Also Medium-M45 performed better than other two varieties under open conditions. The highest B:C ratio was recorded underagroforestry system Harad + Medium-M45(8.89) followed by Harad + Pusa Narangi Gainda(6.43) and Harad + Pusa Basanti Gainda(6.15) and in sole crop the highest B:C ratio was recorded in Medium-M45(7.15) followed by Pusa Narangi Gainda (2.5) and Pusa Basanti Gainda(1.63).The highest LERwas recorded in Pusa Basanti Gainda(2.89),Pusa Narangi Gainda(2.62), Medium-M45(1.68).The findings of this investigation indicate that Marigold can be successfully integrated with the harad plantations. The bestvariety is Medium-M45 and Pusa Narangi Gainda has better growth and yield compared to Pusa Basanti Gainda. Since the three systems had LER >1 it could be recommended to farmers under sub-tropical region of Jammu,J&K.en_US
