Proceedings of International Forestry and Environment Symposium, 2013 Kandyan forest gardens are typical examples of perennial mixed cropping systems in SriLanka. However due to the nonsystematic cropping of these units the Delpitiya MixedCropping Model (DELMIX) was developed and planted in 1978 on eroded tea land. Yielddata of DELMIX indicate that yields of all the crops increased with the time.
