The present study was conducted to evaluate the growth performance of Phyllanthus emblica plantations raised in an abandoned fallow land of Jai Prakash University Chapra Campus during the period August 2015 to July 2017.The parameters studied were height, diameter ,height diameter ratio and tree volume of 3-year old plantations at three sites .The increase in height ranged from 4 to 25% in 2016 and 14 to 18% in 2017;diameter from 38 to 72% in 2016 and 36 to 46% in 2017;height diameter ratio 185% at one site and decreased from 53 to 56% in 2016 and in 2017decreased by 9.6 to 6.9 %;and tree volume at one site decreased by 8% and increased by two sites from 210 to 300% in 2016 and in 2017 increased by 125 to 173%.The monthly increment in height in 2015-2016 ranged from 5.53 to 8.33cm/mon and in 2016-2017 it ranged from 4.33 to 8.87cm/mon ;and diameter value ranged from 0.15 to 0.87 cm/mon in 2015-2016 and in 2016-2017 it ranged from 10.6 to 13.0 cm/mon. The annual increment in height value in 2015-2016 ranged 66.3 to 100 cm/yr and in 2016 -2017 from 52.02 to 106.4 cm/yr whereas annual increment in diameter value ranged from 1.8 to 10.4 cm/yr in 2015-2016 and 0.88 to 1.08 cm/yr in 2016-2017. This study indicated that the growth of Phyllanthus emblica is satisfactory in the fallow land of the present study sites.
