NoSustainability and profitability of framing systems particularly of marginal and small holding facing serious challenges due to declining trend of per capita low availability and shrinking size of operational holdings. Natural resources of the country are having more and more pressure due to burgeoning of population which also required more food, folder, fuel, water etc. A study on standardization of sustainable and profitable cropping system with fruit crops was carried out at ICAR-NRC on Seed Spices, Ajmer to increase system productivity and profitability of the farmers. The field experiment was designed with 20 treatments comprised six cropping sequences viz. Nigella-Cowpea, Anise-Cluster Bean, RaiBlack Gram, Ajwain-Tinda, Fenugreek-Okra, Coriander -Green Gram under taken with two types of fruit orchards i.e. ber and aonla compared with sole crop sequence as well as fruit trees. The results revealed that all the cropping sequences intercropped ber with exhibited higher coriander equivalent yield, net returns and BCR over the cropping sequence intercropped with aonla. The cropping sequence Fenugreek- Okra inter cropped with ber exhibited highest coriander equivalent yield (6549 kg ha-1), net return (Rs 809215/- ha-1) and BCR (4.68) followed by intercropping of Ajwain- Tinda cropping sequence with ber which resulted a net return of Rs.722075/- ha-1. Thus, it is inferred that intercropping of fenugreek- okra cropping sequence with ber is recommended for realizing higher system productivity, net returns and BCR. t Available
