Abstract:
Growth parameters of 24 years old teak grown under agroforestry system and without agroforestry system i.e., sole plantation of teak was compared. Tree height, girth at breast height, crown spread in north-south direction and east-west direction of teak was increased under teak based agroforestry system as compared to sole plantation of teak where no intercrop was grown. Similarly, increment in girth at breast height, crown spread in North-south direction and crown spread in East-west direction from commencement of intercropping to the final harvest of intercrop was recorded significantly maximum in pooled analysis with different treatments combinations under teak based agroforestry system as compare to sole teak plantation.
