Abstract

Performance of Coleus aromaticus Benth. under sapota-jatropha based horti-medicinal agroforestry system were evaluated during the study. Plant height was recorded highest with treatment T2 (34.95 cm) at 90 DAP (Days after planting). Number of branches (19.28), leaves (422.36), root (22.99 cm), number of roots (63.90) and basal diameter (12.12 mm) were observed maximum at 90 DAP under treatment T1. Maximum leaf thickness observed with treatment T4 (0.98 mm) while leaf length (9.60 cm), leaf width (6.72 cm) and leaf area (32.60 cm2) found maximum with treatment T1. Fresh weight of leaves (443.75 g), branches (105.48 g), shoot (575.75 g), root (17.34 g) and total biomass (579.63 g/plant) also observed significantly higher with treatment T1. The maximum dry weight of leaves, branches, shoot, root and total biomass, maximum fresh yield, dry yield, oil recovery, oil yield and BCR was recorded maximum with treatment T1 (C. aromaticus Benth. under sapota + jatropha system).
