A study on the prospect and profitability of indigenous vegetables (Kalmi, Helencha and Malancha Shak) was conducted in Shyamnagar Upazila of Satkhira district in waterlogged conditions from September 2020 to May 2021. In the study, three indigenous vegetables (Ipomoea aquatica, Enhydra fluctuans and Jussiaea repens) were tested with four levels of growing media viz., T0, control (no organic matter); T1, 75% organic matter+ 25 % soil; T2, 50 % organic matter +50% soil; T3, 25% organic matter+ 75% soil. Results show a significant difference among the treatments and different indigenous marshy leafy vegetables. The maximum yield, gross and net income and BCR in all the vegetables were observed in T1. In the case of comparative analysis of different vegetables, the highest yield, gross and net income and BCR were also recorded from Helencha Shak and that was the lowest in Kalmi Shak.
