10.22376/ijpbs.2019.10.1.p1-12 Volume 8 Issue 2 2017 (April - June) This article deals with how different morphological, meteorological and edaphic parameters are correlated with the oil production in lessThan i greaterThan Ocimum gratissimum, lessThan /i greaterThan the most potent eugenol producer among the available species of lessThan i greaterThan Ocimum lessThan /i greaterThan growing naturally in the agro climatic conditions of West Bengal (India). This correlation has been established through extensive survey on this species growing in eight districts of West Bengal in respect of its various agro morphological traits. Emphasis should be given on some specific traits and parameters for cultivation of this species as discussed in this article with the view to produce more essential oil as well as eugenol in a cost effective manner.
