dc.descriptionCane is mostly trailing or climbing spiny-palm with characteristic scaly fruits and classified under the Lepidocaryoid major group (Moore, 1973) of the palm family Aracaceae (Palmae). It is an integral part of the tropical forest ecosystem. There are 14 genera of canes in the world comprising about 600 species (Dransfield, 1981). The species is a very important source of livelihood for the economically and socially weaker sections of the community. The plant is used as raw material for variety of products of handicraft and small cottage industries, having increasing demand in national and international markets. The climber is mainly used for making ropes, furniture frames, walking sticks, polo sticks, umbrella handles, baskets, sports goods, mat making, wicker work, for stuffing and packing etc. Apart from conventional uses, cane has beneficial medicinal uses as well (Bhatt, 1992).en_US
dc.description.abstractTwo field experiments were conducted at the Agroforestry Farm, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur during February 2006 to March 2007 to examine the performance of four cane species and one eggplant variety (Kajla) under different multipurpose trees as the middle and the lower storey crops in multistoried agroforestry system. The treatments were three tree species viz. Mehogony, Deshi neem and Eucalyptus, which were used as the upper storey. There was also a control (Open field) treatment. Four cane species namely Bhudum beth, Udum beth, Jali beth and Golla beth were used as the middle storey non-woody perennial and eggplant was used as the lower storey crop. Two separated experiments were conducted for the study. One experiment was laid out in the single factor Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications for eggplant, another one was two factorial Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications for cane species. The aim of the experiments was to study the growth performances and selection of potential cane species and also to assess the morphological behaviors and fruit yield of eggplant in the said multistoried agroforestry systems.en_US
