An area of approximately 200 square meters was plowed and rotavated twice alternately at weekly interval. Laying out the plots, mulching with plastic film and construction of trellis for tomato, cucumber and yambean followed. Carrots and yambean were directly planted at recommended distances of 25cm x 25cm and 25cm x 100cm apart, respectively. Cucumber, lettuce and tomato were pre-germinated in seed boxes, pricked, hardened, and transplanted at recommended distances as soon as they developed two functional leaves. All cultural management requirements of the each crop were properly done to attain optimum growth. The highest yield per plant was obtained from cucumber with an average of 2.16 kg, followed by tomato with 1.49 kg while yambean, carrots and lettuce gave an average yield of 0.30, 0.23 and 0.072 kg/plant, respectively. Likewise, the highest return on investment (ROI) was recorded in cucumber with 465% followed by carrots and lettuce both with 308.55 and tomato and yambean with 283.08, and 153.27%, respectively.
