dc.description.abstractAmong the different vegetable crops tried in a coconut garden, snakegourd (10,580 kg/ha), amaranthus (6,610 kg/ha) and brinjal (6,120 kg/ha) in kharifi bottlegourd (7,930 kg/ha), ridgegourd (3,830 kg/ha) and coccinia (3,810 kg/ha) in rabi and amaranthus (7,560 kg/ha), brinjal (6,310 kg/ha) and coccinia (4,060 kg/ha) in summer were highly productive and economical. Snakegourd-ridgegourd-amaranthus sequence was found to be most remunerative (Rs 22,217/ha/annum) followed by amaranthus-bottlegourd-brinjal (Rs 20,920/ha/annum). Coccinia, a perennial crop also can be grown successfully in coconut garden and it yields about 10,700 kg/ha. Intercropping helped to create additional employment to the tune of 215 to 365 mandays/ha/vear in different sequences of intercropping.en_US
