Abstract

Studies were conducted with four varieties of Mango and Wheat crop sown in their inter spaces from 1990-91 to 1995-96. The grain and straw yield of Wheat was recorded from the first, third and fifth rows from the tree component. Among the growth characters in Mango on an average, variety Langra gave the highest values followed by Mallika, and Deshari. Lowest growth characters were found in variety Amrapalli. The results revealed that on an average, highest grain and straw yield was recorded with variety Amrapalli and lowest with variety Mallika. On an average, maximum Wheat yield was registered from the fifth row followed by third and minimum in the first row from the tree component.
