Multi-tyre farming

[chennaivishnu]

Hi,
I am planning to do multi-tyre farming in a small scale. I am planning to have multiple vegetables, fruits and flowers (preferably annual or less) planted near each other. I am trying to know which will be the right combination. In my search so far, I was able to get this combination only for long term-trees. Eg: Coconut trees can be combined with coco and pineapple. There are a few other such combination as well - where all of them co-exist well, in fact they support each other.
This is the kind of combination that I am looking for in fruits, vegetables and flowers which grow and die within a year (like banana, papaya, brinjal, tomato, etc). Can any one help me?

High value crops

In banana you may intercrop patchouli with little adjustment in row spacing.Patchouli is a high value crop and you may sell dry herb as such or can distill to produce oil. It may give return equal to banana.
