The best method of vegetative propagation in Aonla is Patch budding. Patch budding is an easy grafting technique that can be used to either replace or add a new fruit variety to an existing tree.A budding operation is performed on one-year-old aonla rootstock. In this method, a rectangular patch of bark is removed completely from the rootstock (25 mm long and 10 - 15 mm wide) and replaced with a patch of the bark of the same size containing a bud of the desired cultivar (scion).
