The present study deals with Vegetative growth and yield performance of Cassia angustifolia under seven year old Emblica officinalis based Agroforestry system. Vegetative growth of Cassia angustifolia was significantly depressed under the canopy of 7 year-old Aonla based Agroforestry system as compared to control (without trees). On an average of two years, plant density, stem girth (cm), plant height (cm), the number of leaves per plant and the number of branches per plant reduced by 42.68%, 35.00%, 31.66%, 31.92% and 52.59%, respectively under tree canopy as compared to control. Specific leaf area (cm2/g) was increased under the tree canopy while specific leaf weight (g/row in m2) was decreased considerably under the trees canopy. On an average of two years, seed yield per plant reduced by 75.70%, length of pod per plant by 10.82%, number of seeds per pod by 15.84%, 100-seed weight by 8.91% under tree canopy as compared to control.
