| Abstrak | The agroforest region is bestowed with diverse agro-climatic zones, which makes itself a rich storehouse of different types of flora and fauna. Besides, this conditions help in introduction, acclimatization, and cultivation of a number of aromatic plants with minimum efforts. There are a few commercial crops, which can be cultivated without disturbing the existing flora and have the potential to establish as cash crops in this region. Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin Benth) has been identified as one such essential oil bearing aromatic plant with immense export potential. Patchouli oil production could be a rural based, labour intensive, low cost agro-base cottage industry, which will give large-scale employment in rural and hilly areas. Patchouli, being a shade loving plant can easily be grown as an intercrop amidst fruit trees, arecanut, and coconut plantation etc. It can also be easily cultivated in flood free fallow or wastelands. This will provide some extra income for the farmers. Following report of experiment in Cibojong-Padarincang-Serang clearly indicates that Patchouli cultivation can be a good option besides the traditional crops. |
