| Abstract: | A field experiment was conducted
during 2000-2001 with a view to find out suitable vegetable crops for
intercropping in young tea during formative years for optimizing farm return.
The analysis of Tea Equivalent Yield (TEY) of different crop combinations
indicated that the combination of Tomato (rabi) and Cucumber
(kharif) produced the highest yield followed by French bean (rabi)
and Cowpea (kharif) crop combination. The Yield of System Total (YST)
also showed the same trend by these two crop combinations |
