A field experiment was conducted during kharif season 2015-16 to study the response of rice varieties to different sowing windows under Konkan conditions. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications. The main plot treatments were three sowing windows, viz., 23rd Met Week, 24th Met Week, 25thMet Week. The sub plot treatments comprised five rice varietiesviz., Karjat-5, Palghar-1, Jaya, Swarna and Karjat-2. Thus there were 45 treatment combinations. Results revealed that rice crop sown on 23rd Met. Week recorded significantly higher grain yield (5782 kg ha-1) and straw yield (6462 kg ha-1). Long duration rice variety Swarna recorded the maximum grain yield (5782 kg ha-1) as well as straw yield (6462 kg ha-1), which was significantly higher over all other varieties under study except variety Jaya which was at par. From the present investigation it can be concluded that kharif rice in Konkan be sown during 23rd meteorological week with rice variety Swarna followed by conventional variety Jaya, so as to obtain higher yield and economic returns

An experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during June to December, 2013 to investigate the response of some short duration aman rice varieties to date of transplanting. The experiment consisted of three transplanting dates viz. 26 July, 5 August and 15 August and seven short duration T. aman rice varieties viz. BRRI dhan33, BRRI dhan39, BRRI dhan49, BRRI dhan56, BRRI dhan57, BRRI hybrid dhan4 and Binadhan-7. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications. Transplanting dates were allocated into the main plot and varieties into the sub plot. Results indicate that Binadhan-7 produced the highest grain yield (4.90 t ha–1), straw yield (5.58 t ha–1), biological yield (10.44 t ha–1), and harvest index (47.10%). Lowest grain yield (3.27 t ha–1), straw yield (3.96 t ha–1) and biological yield (7.20 t ha–1) were produced by BRRI dhan57. BRRI dhan49 had taken the longest field duration (120 DAT) while BRRI dhan57 had taken the shortest field duration (88 DAT). Plant height (119.12 cm), number of total tillers m-2 (276.40), number of effective tillers m–2 (260.02), number of grains panicle–1 (109.19), grain yield (4.75 t ha–1), straw yield (5.22 t ha–1), biological yield (9.97 t ha–1) and harvest index (47.64%) were highest on 26 July transplanting; decreased on 5 August transplanting and drastically declined on 15 August transplanting. The present study concludes that the highest yield for short duration T. aman rice cultivation could be possible by Binadhan-7 transplanting on 26 July.J. Bangladesh Agril.

A field experiment was conducted under late planted lowland situations during wet seasons of 2012 and 2013 at Jorhat to evaluate the performance of 3 late planted sali (kharif) rice varieties (Prafulla, Gitesh and Monoharsali) under 3 planting dates (10, 20 and 30 September) with 2 types of seedling (Nursery seedling and double planted seedling). Results revealed that delaying planting dates from 10 September to 30 September significantly and consistently reduced both grain and straw yields along with all the yield attributing characters during both the years. On an average, the grain and straw yield reduction being 58.3 and 19.3 per cent, respectively. Among the varieties tested, rice variety ‘Monoharsali’ outyielded the variety, ‘Prafulla’ and ‘Gitesh’. Double planted seedlings of 60 days (30 + 30 days) old recorded significantly higher yields and all the yield attributes over the use of 60 days nursery seedling. The highest net return and benefit-cost ratio was recorded when rice variety, ‘Monoharsali’ was transplanted on 10 September using 60 days (30 + 30 days) double planted seedling.

The experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of Patuakhali Science and Technology University (PSTU), Patuakhali during the period from December-May of 2015 to evaluate the effect of irrigation and soil conditioner on growth and yield of BRRI dhan29. A modern HYV rice variety BRRI dhan29 was grown under four different frequency of irrigation viz., four times, six times, eight times and ten times with five rates of flobond(soil conditioner), viz., 0.0, 5.0, 10.0, 15.0 and 20.0 per plot. The experiment was laid out in a split plot design with four replications. Irrigation and rate of soil conditioner and their interaction significantly influenced the yield contributing and other crop characters. It was observed that the highest grain yield (7.08 t ha-1) was obtained from eight times irrigations, but the highest straw yield was obtained from ten times irrigations (6.706 t ha-1).The highest grain yield (7.21 t ha-1) was obtained with 10g Flobond per plot but the highest straw yield (6.29 t ha-1) was obtained with no Flobond. However, the highest grain yield (8.38 t ha-1) was obtained with eight times irrigation coupled with 10g of Flobond per plot as soil conditioner and the lowest one (5.5 t ha-1) was obtained in four times irrigation and no Flobond. So, eight times irrigation coupled with 10g of Flobond per plot as soil conditioner was the best combination for obtaining best yield. Progressive Agriculture 30 (2): 165-172, 2019

Scarcity of water resources in India is limiting the production of flooded rice crop. A field experiment was conducted in factorial RBD with sixteen treatment combinations including four rice varieties viz. V1: PR-115, V2: DRRH-3, V3: PAC-837 and V3: PR-121 and four fertility levels viz. F1: control (N0P0K0), F2: N, P2O5, K2O at 90: 45: 22.5 kg ha-1, F3: N, P2O5, K2O at 120:60:30 kg ha-1 and F4: N, P2O5, K2O at 150: 75: 37.5 kg ha-1 replicated thrice. The results revealed that among the different varieties, PAC-837 recorded highest plant height and number of tillers m-2 at all the growth stages. All yield attributes viz. number of effective tillers m-2, number of seeds per panicle, 1000-grain weight, spikelet sterility and grain yield, straw yield and harvest index significantly differed in different varieties and were recorded highest in PAC-837 which were however, statistically at par with DRRH-3 except grain yield and effective tillers m-2. Rice variety PAC-837 recorded highest grain yield of 45.65 q ha-1 and straw yield of 59.98 q ha-1. Among the fertility levels, number of effective tillers m-2 significantly increased up to 120: 60: 30 N-P2O5-K2O kg ha-1 thereafter nonsignificant differences were noticed. The grain and straw yield increased up to 150: 75: 37.5 N-P2O5-K2O kg ha-1 and recoded grain yield of 52.78 q ha-1 and straw yield of 73.85 q ha-1 with application of 150:75:37.5 N-P2O5-K2O kg ha-1. Nutrient application of 150: 75: 37.5 N-P2O5-K2O kg ha-1 recorded highest available N (238.16 kg ha-1), P (16.18 kg ha-1) and K (163.25 kg ha-1) in soil after harvest of the crop. Higher available nitrogen (235.28 kg ha-1), phosphorus (16.38 kg ha-1) and potassium (154.24 kg ha-1) n soil were recorded with PR-121 and lowest available major nutrients were recorded with variety PAC-837. This study would help to introduction and adaptation of new rice variety PAC-837 with application of 150: 75: 37.5 N-P2O5-K2O kg ha-1 under aerobic conditions in Shiwalik foothills region of North-Western Himalayas.

This study aims to determine the effect of regulating the provision of nitrogen fertilizer on several rice varieties on the growth and yield of rice in ratoon system at the Tidal swampland. A split plot design was employed in this experiment. The main plot was nitrogen fertilizer application (N) consisting of N1, N2, N3, and N4. The subplot is rice varieties (V) consisting of Inpari 30 (V1), Inpara 3 (V2), Inpari 33 (V3), Inpari 43 (V4) and Hipa 5 Ceva (V5). The results showed that ½ dose nitrogen fertilization given at planting + ½ dose at primordia had a good effect on the growth and yield of the main crop, whereas 1/3 dose nitrogen fertilization given at planting + 1/3 dose at primordia + 1/3 dose at harvest tends to have a good effect on ratoon yield. Variety Hipa 5 Ceva produced highest yield of unhusked rice (i.e. 4.9 tons ha-1 for the main crop and 2.71 tons ha-1 for ratoon) at (N3): 135 kg N ha-1 fertilizer, when ½ dose was given at planting + ½ dose at primordia. The variety Hipa 5 Ceva with various nitrogen fertilization strategies provided the highest total grain yield in the ratoon system at tidal swampland.

An experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during the period from June to December 2014 with a view to compare the efficacy of weeding method on the performance of transplanted aman rice varieties. Four transplanted aman rice varieties viz. Kalijira, BRRI dhan34, BRRI dhan52 and BRRI dhan64 and five different weeding treatments namely no weeding, two hand weeding at 20 & 40 days after transplanting (DAT), mechanical weeding by Japanese rice weeder at 20 and 40 DAT, soil applied pre-emergence herbicide Topstar 400 SP (Oxadiargyl 400 g/l) @ 190 ml ha-1 once at 3 days before transplanting and foliar applied post-emergence herbicide Manage @ 250g ha-1 at 6 days after transplanting were evaluated. The experiment was laid out in a split plot design assigning weed control method in the main plot and variety in the sub plot with three replications. Weed population was significantly influenced by variety and methods of weeding. The important weeds of the experimental plots were Digitaria sanguinalis, Leersia hexandra, Paspalum scrobiculatum, Echinochloa crusgalli, Monochoria vaginalis, Ludwigia hyssopifolia, Polygonum orientale, Eclipta alba, Marsilea crenata and Fimbristylis miliacea. The effect of weeding treatments on dry weight of weeds was significant. Hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAT showed the lowest dry weight of weeds followed by post-emergence herbicide Manage at 6 DAT and no weeding produced the highest dry weight of weeds. Among the weeding treatments hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAT performed the best for all the crop characters including grain yield (3.90 t ha-1) followed by the post-emergence herbicide manage and no weeding showed the lowest performance (3.06 t ha-1). Among the varieties, BRRI dhan34 produced the highest grain yield (4.33 t ha-1) and Kalijira yielded the lowest (2.04 t ha-1). The interaction between variety and weeding show that all the varieties produced higher grain yield with two hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAT than other weeding treatments. The results suggested that BRRI dhan34 might be grown with two hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAT as well as early post-emergence herbicide Manage for effective in controlling weeds and for better yield of transplant aman rice.Progressive Agriculture 27 (4): 418-427, 2016

A field experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, during June 2013 to December 2013 to study the yield and grain dimensions of transplant aman rice varieties as influenced by date of transplanting. The experimental factors comprised of two factors namely, date of transplanting and variety. Date of transplanting comprised of 18 July, 19 August and 18 September. The variety comprised of Binadhan-7, BRRI dhan57, BR11 and Bashiraj. The experimental field was laid out in a split plot design. Most of the yield parameters were significantly affected by the date of transplanting. The yield and yield contributing characters were highest at 19 August transplanting and lowest at 18 September transplanting. Variety had significant effect on most of the yield and yield contributing characters. BR11 gave the highest grain yield (4.47 t ha-1) and the lowest value was obtained in BRRI dhan57. Among the grain dimensions, Binadhan-7 with 18 July transplanting gave the highest grain length (9.64 mm) whereas BR11 with 18 September transplanting gave the lowest value (7.82mm). Results showed that yield components were highest at 19 August transplanting and after that the reduction occurred at 18 September may be due to low temperature and short day length at flowering stage.Asian J.

A field experiment was conducted during November 2009-April 2010 in Bangladesh Rice Research Institute, Bangladesh to examine the response of two rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties (BRRIdhan28 and BRRI dhan29) to six N rates of nitrogen fertilizer viz. 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 kg ha-1. The experiment was conducted in a RCB design with three replications. Grain yields of both BRRI dhan28 and BRRI dhan29 increased significantly in a quadratic fashion with N rates. The highest grain yields were obtained from 150 kg N ha-1 in both the varieties. More than 1 t ha-1 yield was obtained in BRRI dhan29 (6.34 t ha-1) at the same rate of N indicated BRRI dhan29 as a nitrogen efficient variety. However, the predicted economic optimum doses of N appeared to be 156 and 158 kg ha-1 for BRRI dhan28 and BRRI dhan29, respectively. The grain yield was mainly influenced by the number of panicles per hill, which was found to increase with the increase of N rates in both the varieties. The Agriculturists 2016; 14(2) 48-60
