A field experiment was carried out in non-Calcareous Floodplain Soil of Spices Research Sub-Station, Lalmonirhat under AEZ 2 during the rabi season of 2007- 2008 and 2008-09. The objectives were to evaluate the effect of boron on the yield of mustard and to screen out the suitable variety tested against different boron levels for maximizing yield. Three varieties of mustard viz., BARI Sharisha-11, 13, and 14 and 5 levels of boron (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kg/ha) along with a blanket dose of N120 P35 K65 S20 Zn3.0 kg/ha were used in the study. Results revealed that BARI Sharisha-11 performed better with 1.5 kg B/ha which produced 1.82 t/ha seed. However, from regression analysis, a positive but quadratic relationship was observed between seed yield and boron levels. The optimum dose of boron was appeared to be 1.7 and 1.6 kg B/ha for Lalmonirhat during 2007-08 and 2008-09, respectively. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjar.v37i4.14392 Bangladesh J. Agril.

A field experiment was carried out in Grey Terrace Soil of Joydebpur and Non Calcareous Grey Floodplain Soil of Agricultural Research Station, Burirhat, Rangpur during the rabi season of 2010-2011 and 2011-2012. The objectives were to evaluate the effect of boron on the yield and yield attributes of BARI Hybrid Tomato-5 as well as to determine an optimum rate of boron application for maximizing yield. Three varieties of BARI Hybrid Tomato-5 viz., Epoch, NS 815 and BARI Hybrid-5 and five levels of boron (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kgB ha-1) along with a blanket dose of N220 P60 K120 S40 Zn4.0 kg ha-1 and cow dung 5 t ha-1 were used in the study. Results revealed that NS 815 performed the best with 1.5 kg B ha-1 that produced 79.7 t ha-1 at Joydevpur whereas at Burirhat Epoch performed best (101 t/ha). The said combination increased 31.7% and 57.8% yield over the control at Joydevpur and Burirhat, respectively. However, from regression analysis, a positive but quadratic relationship was observed between yield and boron levels. The optimum dose of boron was appeared to be as 1.37 kg and 1.54 kg B ha-1 for Joydevpur and Burirhat, respectively.Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 42(4): 707-714, December 2017

A study was conducted in Calcareous Low Ganges River Floodplain Soil (AEZ 12) at Regional Pulses Research (RPRS), Madaripur during the Rabi season of 2010-12.The objectives were to evaluate the effect of Zinc (Zn) and Boron (B) on the yield and yield contributing characters of lentil (Lens culinaris Medic) and to estimate the optimum dose of Zn and B for yield maximization. There were 16 treatment combinations comprising four levels each of Zinc (0, 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 kg/ha) and Boron (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 kg/ha) along with a blanket dose of N20 P16 K30 S10 kg/ha were used. The treatments were arranged viz. T1= Zn0B0; T2= Zn0B0.5; T3= Zn0B1.0; T4= Zn0B1.5; T5= Zn1.0B0; T6= Zn1.0B0.5; T7= Zn1.0B1.0; T8= Zn1.0B1.5; T9= Zn2.0B0; T10= Zn2.0B0.5; T11= Zn2.0B1.0; T12= Zn2.0B1.5; T13= Zn3.0B0; T14= Zn3.0B0.5; T15= Zn3.0B1.0 and T16= Zn3.0B1.5. The experiment was laid out in RCBD with three replications. Results showed that the combination of Zn3.0B1.5 produced significantly higher seed yield (1156 kg/ha). The lowest seed yield (844 kg/ha) was found in control (Zn0B0) combination. The combined application of zinc and boron were superior to their single application. Therefore, the combination of Zn3.0B1.5 may be considered as suitable dose for lentil cultivation in Bangladesh. But from regression analysis, the optimum treatment combination was Zn2.85B1.44 for Madaripur, Bangladesh. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjar.v39i4.22538 Bangladesh J. Agril.

A field experiment was conducted during 2014-15 in the Rabi season at Instructional Cum Research Farm of Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat, Assam, India to find the effect of different irrigation schedule and fertilizer levels on seed yield, oil content and nutrient uptake in late sown toria (Brassica campestries var. toria) grown after sali rice. Result revealed that application of different irrigation and fertilizers has significantly increased the yield of late sown toria over control. Out of different irrigation schedule, application of 6 cm irrigation at 25 and 50DAS recorded the higher seed yield (9.55 q/ha) which is 16.60, 23.11 and 37.10 percentage higher over the other irrigation schedules i.e. 6 cm irrigation at siliqua formation stage (50 DAS), 6 cm irrigation at pre flowering stage ( 25DAS), rainfed respectively. In case of different fertilizers levels, application of 75-50-50 N-P2O5-K2O kg ha-1 produced the highest seed yield (8.72q/ha) which is statistically at par with 60-40-40 N-P2O5-K2O kgha-1 (8.48 q/ha), but significantly superior than 45-30-30 N-P2O-K2O kg/ha (7.10 q/ha). The oil content was slightly increased with the increase in fertilizer levels, 5.85% and 3.37% oil content was increased with the fertilizes dose 75-50-50 N-P2O5-K2O kg ha-1 and 60-40-40 N-P2O5-K2O kgha-1, respectively over 45-30-30 (Control). However irrigation has no any significant role in oil content of late sown toria.

Field experiments on chickpea (cv. BARI Chola-5) were carried out in Calcareous Dark Grey Floodplain Soil under AEZ 11 at Jessore and Non Calcareous Grey Floodplain Soil under AEZ 13 at Rahmatpur during the rabi season of 2001-2002 and 2002-2003. The objective was to find out the optimum dose of boron and molybdenum for yield maximization. Four levels each of boron (0, 1, 2 and 2.5 kg/ha) and molybdenum (0, 1, 1.5 and 2 kg/ha) along with a blanket dose of N20 P25 K35 S20 Zn2 kg/ha & cowdung 5 t/ha were applied in this study. The combination of B2.5 Mo1.5 kg/ha and B2.5 Mo1 kg/ha produced significantly higher yield in both the years of study at Jessore and Rahmatpur, respectively. The said treatments produced the highest mean yields of 2.10 and 1.49 t/ha for Jessore and Rahmatpur, respectively, which was around 53% higher over control (B0 M0). The combined application of both boron and molybdenum were found superior to their single application even though boron played major role in augmenting the yield. However, from the regression analysis, the optimum treatment combination was calculated as B2.34 Mo1.44 kg/ha for Jessore and B2.20 Mo1.29 kg/ha for Rahmatpur.

The objective of this experiment is to determine the effect of nitrogen fertilizer dosses on the yield attributed and seed yield of silybum during rabi season 2018-19 towards development of new agrotechnology. For this purpose, different fertilizer dosses were evaluated and their responses were ascertained with respect to yield attributes and economic yield of silybum. The field experiment was conducted to study the effect of four treatments of different nitrogen doses viz., T1 (control), T2 (NPK @ 80:80:60/ha), T3 (NPK @ 100:80:60/ha) and T4 (NPK @ 120:80:60/ha kg NPK ha-1) with the spacing 50*50cm row to row & plant to plant respectively with three replicates. The result showed significant influence of higher nitrogen doses T4 (NPK @ 120:80:60/ha kg NPK ha-1) produced higher economic seed yield (9.35 q/ha-1 ­­) followed by T3 (NPK @ 100:80:60/ha) NPK  produced (8.50 q/ha-1 ­) and  T2 (NPK @ 80:80:60/ha) produced (6.60 q/ha­­­) seed yield, and lowest seed yield (2.55 q/ha) were recorded in T1(control) without fertilizer. The observation recorded revealed highest economic yield attribute  like; plant height (288.00 cm), canopy  ( 102.1 * 99.2 cm),  number of leaf (10) and highest seed yield (9.35 q/ha) were recorded in T4 application of NPK @ 120:80:60/ha kg NPK ha-1 as compared to other treatments. Therefore, recommended application of NPK @ 120:80:60/ha kg NPK ha-1 is recommended for quality cultivation of silybum to get higher economic yield and return.

A pot experiment was conducted at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University, Gazipur during kharif- II season (August to November) of 2010 to find out the nitrogen acquisition and yield of mungbean genotypes affected by different levels of nitrogen fertilizer in low fertile soil. Ten mungbean genotypes viz. IPSA-12, GK-27, IPSA-3, IPSA-5, ACC12890053, GK-63, ACC12890055, BARI Mung-6, BUmug- 4 and Bina moog- 5 and six nitrogen fertilizer levels viz. 0, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 kg N ha-1 were included as experimental treatments. Results indicated that increasing applied nitrogenous fertilizer in low fertile soil increased nitrogen acquisition of mungbean which increased number of pods plant-1 and seeds pod-1 and finally increased yield of mungbean upto 60 kg N ha-1 irrespective of genotype and thereafter decreased. Genotype IPSA -12 produced the highest seed yield (14.22 g plant-1) at 60 kg N ha-1. The lowest yield (7.33 g plant -1) was recorded in ACC12890053 in control. From regression analysis, the optimum dose nitrogen for mungbean cultivation in the low fertile soil is 54 kg ha-1.Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 40(4): 619-628, December 2015
