Abstract

Agroforestry is an approach to land use that combines agriculture with forestry, ensuring both forest cover and food security. In the present study, teak based agroforestry system was used for the production potential of cluster bean in response to varieties and micronutrient foliar application. The study was conducted in the summer season for two years. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with Factorial concept consisting of 3 factors viz., varieties, foliar application of micronutrient iron and zinc at 2 levels each in 4 replications. Two different varieties of cluster bean viz. Pusa Navbahar (V1), Local Variety (V2), foliar application of iron viz. No foliar application of iron (F0), foliar application of iron [0.5% FeSO4 (F1)] at 30 and 45 days after sowing (DAS) and foliar application of zinc viz. No foliar application of zinc (Z0), foliar application of zinc [0.5% ZnSO4 (Z1)] at 30 and 45 DAS were tested for yield attributes of cluster bean separately under teak based agroforestry system and open condition. Among two tested varieties, variety Pusa Navbahar perform well as compared to local variety. Foliar application of 0.5% FeSO4 and 0.5% ZnSO4 individually increased yield attributes and yield as compare to their control condition. Further, results of the investigation showed decline in the yield attributes and yield of cluster bean under teak based agroforestry system in comparison to open condition. The interaction effect of different treatment combinations was found nonsignificant for all yield attributes except the number of pods per plant under teak based agroforestry system and open condition.
