The trial waslaid out in a randomized block design with seven replication. Three treatment combinations were: T1- Teak + individual two medicinal plantsbased agroforestry system; T2- mango + individual two medicinal plants based agroforestry, and T3- individual two medicinals plant in open state.In the open state, sole cropping of medicinal plants received100% sunlight; while teak based system and mango based system were allowed 53 to58% sunlight for the growth of the two medicinal plants, respectively. Both trees were planted four years before in the spacing of 8m x 4m for teakand 8m x 6m for mango. The result showed that hortisilvi agroforestry systems resulted signi...
