Abstract

This study Two production systems (sole potato and peach intercropped with potato) and five potato varieties (Kufri Sinduri, Kufri Lalit, Kufri Arun, Lady Rosseta, Kufri Khyati) were investigated during the 2021-22 and 2022-23 winterseasons. Parameters such as cost of cultivation, gross return, net return, and benefit-cost ratio (B:C ratio) were analyzed. The results indicate that the Peach + potato system (S2) and Kufri Sinduri variety (V1) yielded higher net returns and B:C ratio, attributed to organic matter from peach residues enhancing soil fertility and yield potential. Statistically significant differences in economics were observed due to production system and crop variety variations.
