Abstract: Among various methods of budding, patch and shield budding are commonly used in jamun. The patch budding is a well established and commercial method of propagation of jamun due to highest per cent of bud take and success shield budding is practiced largely. On the basis of finding obtained from the present investigation, it can be concluded that Jamun seedling budded on 15th June with patch method showed better performance over shield budding with respect to maximum bud take, bud sprouting, height and diameter of budding. The interaction effect (time and method) found to be non- significant in most of cases.
