Rose cultivation is now a profitable enterprise to the farmers, but the socioeconomic data and information of this flower are very scarce in Bangladesh. So, the present study was conducted to identify agronomic practices, analyze relative profitability, and input-output relationship during December 2010. A total of 100 rose growing farmers were randomly selected for this study. The results indicated that 100% farmers cultivated Lincoln variety of rose. The costs of rose cultivation were Tk. 3,87,569 and Tk. 2,75,214 per hectare on full cost and variable cost basis, respectively. The major share of full cost was incurred for human labour (30%), followed by land use (23%), fertilizer (17%), and irrigation (12%). The yield of rose was 5,40,107 flowers per hectare. The net return from rose cultivation was Tk. 23,31,196 per hectare. The benefit cost ratios were 2.29 and 1.63 on variable cost and full cost basis, respectively. The highest profit was obtained from rose cultivation compared to its competitive crops like potato+jute, lentil+til and mustard+mungbean for rose. Human labor, land preparation cost, seedling, urea, TSP, MoP and irrigation had positive effect on the yield of rose. Lack of technical knowledge, non-availability of HYV seedling, and infestation of insects and diseases were major problems found in rose cultivation. Government should take necessary steps to overcome these problems. Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 38(1): 165-174, March 2013 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjar.v38i1.15204

Marigold cultivation is now a profitable enterprise to the farmers, but the socioeconomic data and information of this flower are very scarce in Bangladesh. Therefore, the study was conducted to identify agronomic practices, analyze relative profitability, and input-output relationship during February 2011. Primary data were collected from 100 randomly selected farmers from Jessore and Jhenaidah districts. The results indicated that 95% farmers cultivated T- 004 line and only 5% farmers cultivated T- 003 line of marigold. The per hectare costs of marigold cultivation were Tk. 1,47,234 and Tk. 1,02,858 on full cost and variable cost, respectively. The major share of full cost was for human labour (34%), land use (18%), fertilizer (15%), and irrigation (10%). The yield of marigold was 2,650,447 flowers per hectare. The gross margin and net return were Tk.1, 62,186 and Tk.1, 17,812 per hectare, respectively. The net return was 81% higher than lentil, 85% higher than mustard, and 6% lower than potato cultivation. The benefit cost ratios were 2.57 and 1.80 on variable cost and full cost basis, respectively. Cobb-Douglas production function revealed that human labour, land preparation, seedling, urea, TSP, MoP, and irrigation had positive effect on marigold cultivation. The lack of technical knowledge, nonavailability of high yielding variety, and infestation of insects and diseases were major problems for marigold cultivation. Therefore, necessary steps from concerned authority are needed to overcome these problems. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjar.v37i4.14395 Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 37(4): 711-720, December 2012

Potato is one of the important food crops in Bangladesh. Its demand is increasing day by day. The Tuber Crop Research Centre (TCRC) of BARI released 40 HYV potato varieties and disseminated them in the farmer’s fields through different agencies. But most varieties were not adopted well by the farmers due to unknown reasons. Therefore, an attempt was made to assess the level of adoption and profitability of BARI released potato variety at farm level. Data were collected from 150 randomly selected potato farmers from Munshigonj, Bogra and Comilla districts during January-February 2010. The results indicated that 48% potato areas were covered by Diamant variety, 16% by Cardinal, 22% by Granola, and the rest 14% areas were covered by Binella, Asterix, Provento, Felsina, Multa and Hira. The cost of BARI released potato cultivation was Tk 2, 10,629 and Tk 1, 84,135 per hectare on full cost and variable cost basis. The major share of total cost was for seed (42%) followed by fertilizer (21%) and human labour (14%). The average yield of potato was 26 t/ha with gross margin of Tk 1, 51,003 per hectare. The net return of potato cultivation was Tk 1, 24,509 per hectare. The benefit cost ratios were 1.59 and 1.82 on full cost and variable cost basis. Human labour, land preparation, seed, and irrigation had positive and significant effect on potato production. Nonavailability  of HYV seed at proper time, lack of technical knowledge, high price  of seed and fertilizer, infestation of insect and diseases, and lack of storage facilities were the major problems of potato production.

Panikachu is a nutritious vegetable contributing to the total supply of vegetables during the summer in Bangladesh. Many farmers cultivate this crop from their innovative ideas. Researchers are unable to formulate adequate research design for its varietal improvement and technology packages. Therefore, the study was conducted in two panikachu growing districts, namely Joypurhat and Jessore during February 2011 to know the profitability of panikachu cultivation. In total, 100 panikachu farmers were selected of which 50 farmers from each area were selected randomly to collect primary data. The results indicated that the costs of panikachu cultivation were Tk. 2,67,726 and Tk. 1,84,530 per hectare on total cost and variable cost basis, respectively. The major share of total cost was for human labour (45%), land use (17%), and fertilizer (15%). The yield for rhizome and stolon were 24.94 tons and 23.29 tons per hectare. The gross margin and net returns were Tk. 2,06,058 and Tk. 1,22,862 per hectare. The benefit cost ratios was 1.46. Human labour, manure, urea, TSP, MoP, insecticides, and irrigation had positive effect on the yield of panikachu. Lack of technical knowledge about improved cultivation practices, non-availability of HYV seedling, and low price of product were major constraints to panikachu cultivation.

The study identified agronomic practices, analyzed relative profitability, and resource use efficiency of tuberose cultivation in Bangladesh during January 2010. Primary data were collected from 100 randomly selected farmers from Jessore and Chuadanga districts. The results revealed that the per hectare costs of tuberose cultivation were estimated at Tk. 2,00,761 and Tk. 1,29,283 over full cost and variable cost, respectively. The major share of total cost was for human labour (30%) followed by land use (23%), and fertilizer (17%). The total cost was 26% and 12% higher than its competitive crops banana and papaya, respectively. The yield of tuberose was 4,54,425 sticks per hectare. The gross margin and net return were Tk. 5,52,354 and Tk.4,80,876 per hectare, respectively. This net return was 65% higher than banana and 71% higher than papaya cultivation. The BCRs (benefit cost ratio) were 5.27 and 3.39 over variable cost and full cost basis, respectively. Production function revealed that human labour, seedling and irrigation had positive effect on tuberose cultivation. The lack of scientific knowledge, high yielding variety and efficient transport facility were reported to be major problems in tuberose cultivation. Bangladesh J. Agril.

Hybrid Maize

The present study is an attempt to assess the existing agronomic practices of hybrid maize cultivation, its profitability, constraints, and factors affecting hybrid maize production. The majority of the total farmers sowed seeds during the first week of December. The average seed rate was found to be 20.94 kg per hectare. About 16 varieties were found to cultivate by farmers, of which majority farmers used NK-40 followed by Pacific-II. All kinds of fertilizer used by the farmers were below the optimum level of recommendation. About 33 and 28 percent of the total variable cost was for human labour and chemical fertilizer, respectively. The average yield of hybrid maize was found higher than the national average. The average gross margin was observed to be Tk. 28456 on total variable cost basis. The cost per kilogram of maize cultivation was Tk. 4.12 and return from one kilogram of maize production was Tk. 7.80. It is found that the coefficient of human labour, land preparation, irrigation, urea and borax have significantly impact on gross return. Timely non-availability of seeds, high price of fertilizer, and low price of yield were the major problems for hybrid maize production. Farmers cultivated hybrid maize because of higher yield, higher income, and easy growing. Keywords: Gross return; gross margin; profitability. DOI: 10.3329/bjar.v35i1.5869Bangladesh J. Agril.

The present study was conducted at Bagherpara thana under Jessore district to assess the profitability, contribution of factors to production and changes in socio-economic status of the farmers. About 42% and 21% of total variable cost was incurred for tunnel preparation and using human labour, respectively. The average yield of BARI hybrid tomato was found 32.78 t/ha. The average return per hectare over variable cost is observed to be Tk 11,44,387 on full cost basis and Tk 12,07,481 on cash cost basis. On an average benefit cost ratio was found to be 4.19 on full cost basis and 5.09 on cash cost basis. The cost per kilogram of hybrid tomato cultivation was Tk 10.94 and return from one kilogram of tomato production was Tk 45.83. The functional analysis shows that MP and TSP had positive significant contribution to yield while human labour, hormone, irrigation and seed had negative significant impact on yield of hybrid tomato. The overall socio-economic status of the sample farmers was found increased by 20.33 percent. High price of tunnel materials, timely non availability of hormone, insect and diseases attack were reportedly the major problems for tomato production.

The study was conducted to determine the profitability and resource use efficiency of mustard production in Chitwan. The study used 159 mustard growers from 300 farmers adopting different pollinator friendly practices. Descriptive and statistical tools including Cobb-Douglas production function were used to analyze data which were collected from structured interview schedule. The benefit cost ratio (1.43) indicates that mustard production was profitable with productivity of 0.81 ton per ha. The magnitude of regression coefficients of mustard implied that use of human labor, tractor, nutrient and irrigation and pesticides costs had significant positive effect on gross return with estimated increasing return to scale (1.03). According to estimated allocative efficiency indices, it is suggested to increase use of tractor labor, seed, nutrient and irrigation plus pesticides cost by about 47%, 82%, 84% and 94%, respectively. Extension of modern technologies with adjustment on resource use is to be encouraged for increase in productivity and profit from mustard production which indirectly promotes and ensure forage for pollinators.  Int J Appl Sci Biotechnol, Vol 3(4): 604-608

Potato is the third largest food crop in Bangladesh by tonnage of production. Its acreage and production are also increasing in day after day. This study was accomplished to examine the profitability and resource use efficiency of potato cultivation in five upazilas of Munshiganj district of Bangladesh. A total of 52 farmers were selected randomly from the study area. Data were collected through farm survey by using a suitable pre-tested questionnaire in February-March, 2016. Profitability analysis, Cobb-Douglas production function, MVP, MFC and Farm Budgeting model were used to analyze the objectives. Average gross return, gross margin and net return were found Tk. 3,47,200, Tk. 1,47,125 and Tk. 1,17,300, respectively. Benefit-cost ratio was found 1.51 and 1.74 on full cost and variable cost basis, respectively. The key production factors, i.e. human labour, land preparation, seed, fertilizer, insecticides and irrigations had significant effect on gross return of potato. Resource use efficiency analysis revealed that farmers were not efficient in using resources in potato cultivation. Human labor, land preparation, insecticide and irrigation were under-utilized and therefore increasing use of those resources could maximize the profitability. Seed and fertilizer constituted major parts of the cost of production hence optimum use of those resources could also enhance the profitability and resource use efficiency of potato cultivation in Munshiganj district.SAARC J.

The current production of garlic can’t meet up the increasing demand of Bangladesh. Due to unknown reasons, the area and production of garlic have not been increased at desired level. Therefore, the study was conducted in Magura and Faridpur districts during 2008-2009 to analyze the relative profitability, input-output relationship, and constraints to garlic production. Primary data were collected from 100 randomly selected garlic farmers for the study. Per hectare costs of garlic cultivation were Tk. 65493 and Tk. 51747 on full cost and variable cost basis. The major share of total cost was human labour (30%) and seed (25%). The yield of garlic was 6.15 metric tons per hectare. The gross margin and net return were Tk. 70660 and Tk 56914 per hectare, respectively. The benefit cost ratio was 1.87. The net returns from garlic cultivation were 68%, 59%, and 0.64% higher than mustard, groundnut and cabbage cultivation. Cobb-Douglas production function revealed that human labour, land preparation cost, manure, TSP, irrigation and insecticide had positive effect on the yield of garlic. Non-availability of HYV garlic seed, lack of technical knowledge about improved cultivation practices of garlic, infestation of insects and diseases and low market price were the major problems for garlic cultivation.
