The average Above Ground Biomass (AGB) followed the order Daddha (15.34 Kg m-2) > Chepti (11.23 Kg m-2) in Sandy soil. In case of Sandy loam soil, the AGB followed a reverse order i.e., Chepti (17.54 Kg m-2) > Daddha (16.72 Kg m-2). The average Below Ground Biomass (BGB) followed the order Daddha (5.05 Kg m-2) > Chepti (2.22 Kg m-2) in sandy soil. In case of Sandy loam soil, the average BGB followed the order Daddha (6.25 Kg m-2) > Chepti (3.46 Kg m-2). The average Above Ground Carbon (AGC) followed the sequence Daddha (7.18 Kg m-2) > Chepti (5.51 Kg m-2) in Sandy soil and Chepti (8.69 Kg m-2) > Daddha (8.04 Kg m-2) in Sandy loam soil. The average Below Ground Carbon (BGC) in Daddha and Chepti were 2.23 Kg m-2 and 1.05 Kg m-2 respectively in Sandy soil.
