Popis: An experiment was carried out during at Horticulture Farm, Rajasthan College of Agriculture, Udaipur, Rajasthan during 2018 (February to May) to work out the most suitable growing media and Indole-3 Butyric Acid concentration for producing the best quality cutting of Pomegranate. The experiment was laid out in a completely randomized design with a total of sixteen treatments replicated thrice. Result showed that the treatment combination (T13) comprising Coco peat : Perlite : Vermiculite with 2000 ppm IBA recorded highest values in terms of length of cutting after survival (81.08 cm), percentage of rooted cuttings (97.78%), survival of rooted cuttings (93.78%), number of roots per cutting (41.50), length of longest roots per cutting (32.03 cm), fresh weight of root (2.25 g), sprouts per cutting (2.59), shoots per cutting (9.87), length of shoots per cutting (32.33 cm), leaves per rooted cuttings (145.40), leaves per longest shoot (29.99), fresh weight of shoot (16.67 g), root to shoot ratio (0.15) and survival percentage after shifting in poly bags (82.22).
