SUMMARY
The present field investigation was carried out on 15 genotypes of Ashwagandha at Medicinal and Aromatic plant section of Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar. The results based on average herbage yield of shwagandha revealed that RAS-16 was the maximum herbage yield (88.00g/plant) producer followed by HWS-04-3 (76.33g/plant), HWS-116 (76.33g/plant), and HWS-108 (72.27g/plant). The results of present study on average seed yield basis discovered that HWS-116 was the maximum seed yield (7.87g/plant) producer followed by HWS-106 (7.43g/plant), HWS-110 (4.30g/plant), and HWS-108 (3.50g/plant) and HWS 100 (3.47g/plant). The correlation studies revealed that the herbage yield was found significantly and positively associated with dry root yield. As, these plant characters support the growth of each other.
