Abstract: Studies were carried out at Vanilla Planter's Farm at Kallapur Village, Kadur, Chickmagalur District, Karnataka to know the economic feasibility of vanilla cultivation in coconut garden. Data on the cost of cultivation of vanilla over a period of three years (1994-97) indicated that cost of establishement of vanilla including the maintenance cost during gestation period was Rs 1.62, 129/ha. The cost of cultivation of vanilla and coconut during bearing period (1997-98) worked out to Rs 30,480/ha and Rs. 9793.50/ha/year, respectively. The average gross Rs 94218.50/ha and net returns (Rs. 36,247.25/ ha and financial feasibility measures namely NPW Rs 61,835.12 and BCR (1.34) indicated the viability of mix cropping of vanilla in the coconut gardens in lower elevations (plain s) and low rainfall areas under assured irrigation
