Abstract/Description: | To meet the diversified need of the farmers, field experiments on fruit based cropping system with ber (Z. mauriliana) and aonla (E. officinalis) were initiated at Central Institute for Arid Horticulture, Bikaner, Rajasthan, India. Preliminary results revealed that during the pre-establishment phase of ber orchard, Indian aloe (Aloe barhadensis) and cluster bean-mustard (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba - Brassica campestris) are the low input and high returning crops giving net returns of Rs 65,802 and Rs 26,144/ha. While, in aonla based multistory cropping system, moth bean (Phaseolus accontifolius) and brinjal (Solarium melongena) were identified as the potential crops giving an average net returns of Rs 850 and Rs 26, 144 /ha. By growing these crops, farmer could generate income over a period of six months while from Indian aloe round the year. |
