The experiment was carried out at Agronomy Field laboratory, Department ofAgronomy and Agricultural Extension, university of Rajshahi, to study the effect of irrigation and sowing method on yield and yield attributes of mustard. The experiment consists of two factors i) irrigation viz. no irrigation (I0), one irrigation (I1)and two irrigations (I2) ii) sowing method viz. line sowing method (M1) and broadcasting method (M2). A split- plot design was used for the experiment by assigning the irrigation on the main plots and sowing method to the sub plots with three replications. Irrigation had significant effect on all the yield and yield contributing characters. The highest plant height, number of branches plant-1, filled siliqua plant-1, sliqua length, number of seed siliqua-1, 1000-seed weight and stover yield were obtained from I2 (two irrigations) and consequently it produced the highest seed yield. Sowing method also had significant influence on almost all the yield and yield contributing characters. All the yield contributing characters except number of unfilled siliqua plant-1were found best at line sowing method (M1) and consequently it produced the highest seed yield. However it could be noted from the study that the combination of two irrigations with line sowing method is better to get higher yield of mustard.

The present study was undertaken with a view to study the effect of plant density on yield and yield attributes of two soybean varieties in kharif–II season. The experiment was conducted in kharif-II season 2012 at mymensingh with two soybean varieties, namely PB-1 (Shohag) and G-2 (Bangladesh soybean-4) and six plant densities, viz; 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 and 120 plants m-2 established using an equidistant (square) planting pattern of 22.4cm x 22.4 cm, 15.8 cm x 15.8 cm, 12.9 cm x12.9 cm, 11.2 cm x 11.2 cm, 10 cm x 10 cm and 9.1 cm 9.1 cm, respectively. The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design with varieties in main-plots and plant densities in sub-plots. The treatments were replicated three times. Increased plant density increased plant height, number of nodes plant-1, total dry matter, seed yield (1.02 t ha-1) and Stover yield (1.15 t ha-1) 80 to 100 plants m-2 and then decreased with increased plant density. Again increased plant density linearly decreased in number of branches plant-1, fertile pods plant-1, non-fertile pods plant-1, number of seeds plant-1, seed yield plant-1 and 100- seed weight up to 120 plants m-2 depending on variety and season. The study concludes that the highest yield of soybean in kharif –II season could be obtained from varietyPB-1 with a plant density of 100 plants m-2 and 80 plants m-2in G-2.

The experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University to observe the effect of sowing methods and weeding regimes on the yield of sesame. The experiment comprised of two factors. Two methods of sowing i.e., broadcasting and line sowing (S2), and six weeding regimes- control (T0), weed free (T1), one hand weeding at 15 DAS (T2), two hand weedings at 15 and 30 DAS (T3), three hand weedings at 15, 30 and 45 DAS (T4) and application of Panida (Pendimethalin) herbicide (T5) at 3 DAS. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Almost all the yield characters of sesame were affected significantly due to sowing methods, weeding regime and their interaction. Result showed that the l ine sowing showed better performance regarding plant height (100.40 cm), number of branches (4.983) plant–1, number of capsules plant–1 (47.82), number of seeds capsule–1 (69.66), 1000–seed weight (2.96 g), seed yield (956.90 kg ha–1), stover yield (2167.0 kg ha–1), biological yield (3123.00 kg ha–1) and harvest index (31.45%) than that of broadcasting method. Also weed free treatment had the highest plant height (101.90 cm), highest number of branches (5.00) plant-1, highest capsule (47.08) plant–1, heaviest 1000–seed weight (3.28 g), highest number of seeds capsule–1 (76.22), highest seed yield (974.30 kg ha–1), stover yield (2947.0 kg ha–1) and biological yield (3922.0 kg ha–1) as compared to other treatments while unweeded plot had least significant effect among the whole yield and yield attributes of sesame. In case of interactions, both weed free treatment and herbicidal effect with line sowing methods produced the highest plant height, number of branches and capsules plant–1, seeds capsule–1, seed yield, stover yield and biological yield (109.80 cm, 5.967, 56.57, 81.53, 1054.0 kg ha–1, 3139.0 kg ha–1 and 4193.0 kg ha–1, respectively) as compared to other interaction combinations. The results of the study reveal that the weed free treatment along with line sowing would be the proper technique for higher production of sesame. But line sowing along with application of Panida herbicide would be the best combination for obtaining higher yield of sesame since it is not feasible for the farmers to keep their field weed free throughout all the growing periods.

Field studies with and without Bradyrhizobium was carried out with five mungbean varieties to observe the yield and yield attributes of mungbean. Five mungbean varieties viz. BARI Mung-2, BARI Mung-4, BARI Mung-5, BINA mung-2 and Barisal local, and the rhizobial inoculum (Bradyrhizobium strain BAUR-604) were used. The seeds and stover were dried and weighed adjusting at 14% moisture content and yields were converted to t/ha. The yield attributing data were recorded from 10 randomly selected plants. BARI Mung-2 produced the highest seed yield (1.03 t/ha in 2001 and 0.78 t/ha in 2002) and stover yield (2.24 t/ha in 2001 and 2.01 t/ha in 2002). Higher number of pods/plant was also recorded in BARI Mung-2, while BARI Mung-5 produced the highest 1000-seed weight. Application of Bradyrhizobium inoculant produced significant effect on seed and stover yields in both trials conducted in two consecutive years. Seed inoculation significantly increased seed (0.98 t/ha in 2001, 27% increase over control and 0.75 t/ha in 2002, 29% increase over control) and stover (2.31 t/ha in 2001 and 2.04 t/ha in 2002) yields of mungbean. Bradyrhizobium inoculation also significantly increased pods/plant, seeds/pod and 1000-seed weight. Inoculated BARI Mung-2 produced the highest seed and stover yields as well as yield attributes, such as pods/plant and seeds/pod.

Source-sink manipulation may improve light interception into the canopy and reduce the competition between vegetative and reproductive sinks during seed filling period, and may help in achieving higher yield. So, an effort was made to assess the effect of source-sink manipulation on yield contributing characters and yield of sesame. The experiment was laid out in two factors randomized complete block design consisted of two varieties of sesame viz.Binatil-3 and Local-Black and five levels of source-sink manipulation viz.control (M0), removal of lower empty leaves, lower empty branches and top of the inflorescence (M1), removal of top of the inflorescence (M2), removal of all branches and removal of lower empty leaves (M3) and lower empty branches (M4) with three replications. Source-sink manipulations were imposed during capsule development stage (50 days after emergence). Results revealed that the higher number of capsules plant-1 (16.17), seeds capsule-1 (53.27), maximum 1000-seed weight (2.72 g), higher seed capsule wall ratio (2.52), seed yield plant-1 (2.35 g), yield (938.96 kg ha-1) and harvest index (36.40%) were produced by the modern variety Binatil-3 than the traditional variety Local-black. Source-sink manipulation showed positive response to yield attributes compared with control. Maximum seeds capsule-1 (57.13), 1000-seed weight (2.92 g), higher seed capsule wall ratio (2.71), seed yield plant-1 (2.78 g) and yield (1110.96 kg ha-1) were found from removal of lower empty leaves, lower empty branches and top of the inflorescence (M1). Yield was increased by 71.77%, 46.88%, 8.52% and 22.45% due to M1, M2, M3 andM4 manipulation. Although all the source-sink manipulation treatments gave higher yield in their respective variety, the highest (1258.63 kg ha-1 and 125.04%) yield was obtained when lower leaves, lower empty branches and top of the inflorescence of the variety Binatil-3 were removed i.e. from V1M1 treatment. Therefore, Binatil-3 with removal of lower empty leaves, lower empty branches and top of the inflorescence manipulation was the best treatment in respect of yield and yield contributing characters of sesame.Progressive Agriculture 29 (1): 1-9, 2018

Mustard (Brassica napus)is the important principal edible oil-producing crop in Bangladesh. However, the nutrient requirement of mustard especially for the short duration variety is very much important to obtain higher yield. A field experiment was conducted to assess the requirement of major nutrients (N, P, K, and S), and to recommend fertilizers for short-duration mustard variety BARI Sarisha-14. There were 8 treatments T1=100% soil test based (STB) nutrients (N, P, K, S, Zn & B @ 90, 25, 60, 15, 2 & 1 kg ha-1, respectively) as per Fertilizer Recommendation Guide (FRG,2012), T2=T1+ 25% N of FRG, T3=T1+ 25% NP of FRG, T4=T1+ 25% NK of FRG, T5=T1+ 25% PK of FRG, T6=T1+ 25% NPK of FRG, T7=75% of T1 and T8= native nutrient (control). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with 3 replications. The results revealed that yield and yield parameters of mustard weresignificantly influenced by the nutrient levels. The highest value of almost all the yield components and yield were obtained in T6 among the treatments. The highest seed yield (1.68 t ha-1) and the maximum stover yield (2.96 t ha-1) were obtained from the treatment (T6) containing 100% STB nutrients with additional 25% NPK among the fertilizer treatments. The seed yield value was statistically higher than all other treatments except the treatment where100% STB nutrients with additional 25% NP were used (T3). The highest seed yield and stover production were attributed tothe yield contributing parameters. The highest amount of all the nutrients content was found in the treatment T6 that was followed by T3 and T4 and the lowest in T8. The highest amount of N, P, K, and S content in seed of the treatment T6 was 3.75, 0.97, 0.96 and 0.78%, respectively. The highest yield was accredited to the highest amount of nutrient content in seed. It could be concluded that the treatment T6 (STB fertilizer dose + 25% NPK of FRG) would suitable for short duration Mustard (BARI Sarisha-14) for getting higher yield and better performance.

A field experiment was conducted during the period from January to May 2014 to study the response of growth, flower dropping, pod setting and yield of two soybean varieties to foliar fertilization of urea at early stage of flowering. Soybean varieties, BARI Soybean-5 and BARI Soybean-6, were feeded with four supplemental foliar spray treatments of fertilizer, viz.  M1: Control i.e., no additional nutrient spray; M2: 20% of recommended urea spray at flowering; M3: 20% dose of the recommended MoP; and M4: 20% dose of the recommended DAP at early flowering stage. The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design with three replications. There was no significant effect of variety, fertilization spray or their interaction observed on growth parameters. However, flower and pod dropping was affected with higher flower dropping (55.2%) in BARI Soybean-5 and maximum pod dropping (16.44%) with DAP spray treatment. Higher yield attributes’ values such as seeds pod-1 (2.42), seed yield (1.18 t ha-1), stover yield (1.02 t ha-1), and biological yield (2.21 t ha-1) were obtained with foliar DAP spray treatment. The interaction of BARI Soybean-5 and foliar DAP spray showed the highest seed yield (1.48 t ha-1), stover yield (1.26 t ha-1) and biological yield (2.75 t ha-1). Bangladesh Agron.

An experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from March to June 2015 (Kharif-I season) to find out the effect of different manures along with inorganic fertilizers on yield and yield traits of mungbean varieties. The experiment consisted of two factors: factor A: five levels of manures along with inorganic fertilizers [ T0 = Control (no fertilizer or manure), T1 = Recommended dose of fertilizer (R) (45 kg urea ha-1 + 100 kg TSP ha-1 + 58 kg MoP ha-1), T2 = R + cowdung (3 t ha-1), T3 = R + poultry manure (2 t ha-1), T4 = R + vermicompost (2.5 t ha-1)] and factor B: two mungbean varieties; (V1 = BARI Mung 5 and V2 = BARI Mung 6). The experiment was laid out in split- plot design with three replications. The effect of manures along with recommended inorganic fertilizers on yield and yield traits were found significant. The maximum grain yield (1.53 t ha-1) and maximum stover yield (1.88 t ha-1) was recorded from T4 treatment. Mungbean variety had also significant influence on yield and yield traits. The maximum seed yield (1.58 t ha-1) was obtained from var. BARI Mung 6) but Maximum stover yield (1.91 t ha-1) was obtained from var. BARI Mung 5). The combined effects of manures along with recommended inorganic fertilizers and variety were found statically significant on yield and yield traits. The maximum seed yield (2.01 t ha-1) and maximum stover yield (2.61 t ha-1) was recorded from T4V2. There were positive correlations of seed yield with different yield components. It was comparatively stronger correlations in BARI Mung 5 and weaker in BARI Mung 6. So, var. BARI Mung 6 performed the best result with the application of vermi-compost @ 2.5 t ha-1 with recommended dose of fertilizer.Bangladesh Agron. J. 2017, 20(2): 115-122

The experiment was carried out to study the effect of irrigation and weeding regime on growth, yield and yield contributing characters of lentil. The experiment was laid out in a split-split plot design with three replications. Four levels of irrigation viz. control or no irrigation (I0), one irrigation (I1), two irrigation (I2) and three irrigations (I3) and three weeding regime viz. control weeding (W0), one weeding (W1) and two weedings (W2) were used. Irrigation had significant effect on all the growth, yield and yield contributing characters. The highest TDM , CGR and all the yield contributing characters like plant height, number of branches plant-1, number of pods plant-1, number of effective pods plant-1, number of seeds plant-1, number of filled seeds plant-1, 1000-seed weight and stover yield were obtained from three irrigations (I3) and consequently it produced the highest seed yield. Effect of weeding regime was significant in respect of on the growth, yield and yield contributing characters. All the yield contributing characters except non-effective pods plant-1 were found the best when two weedings were done and as a result it produced the highest seed yield. With some exception two weedings showed highest values of TDM, CGR and other growth character. Finally the results suggest that three irrigations with two weedings are better practices to get higher growth and yield of lentil.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jesnr.v7i2.22225 J. Environ.
