Dhaka. Bangladesh during the period from December. 2007 to March 2008 to study the growth and yield performance of grasspea under different methods ci sowing and prc-emergenee irrigation. The variety BAR! Khesari-2 was used as the test crop. The treatments of the experiment were T,: Broadcast sowing without irrigation: 12: Furrow sowing without irrigation: T: Furrow sowing with furrow irrigation; T 4: Broadcast sowing with primed seeds: 'I' j : Furrow sowing with primed seeds: T 6 : Broadcast sowing with sprinkler irrigation at evening; 1 7 : Broadcast sowing with sprinkler irrigation at evening and morning: 'FR: Furrow sowing with sprinkler irrigation at morning and i's : Broadcast sowing with post sowing flood irrigation. Parameters were studied at 15. 25. 35. 45 and 55 days atler sowing. The highest seedling emergence (4.80. 19.65. 26.20. 54.20 and 71.50) was recorded in T 7 treatment whereas the lowest (2.40. 5.10. 18.20. 44.60 and 45.23) in T1 treatment. The tallest plant (15.11 cm. 34.91 cm. 42.79 cm. 59.41 cm and 71.92) at 15. 25, 35. 45 and 55 DAS was recorded in T 7 treatment and the shortest(l0.94 cm. 25.76 cm. 31.07 cm. 46.55 cm and 56.98 cm) in '1' treatment. The highest number of leaves, number of branches, number of flowers and dr v matter were recorded from T7 treatment and whereas, the lowest in T 1 treatment. 1'he highest pod number, pod length. number of seeds pod', weight of 1000 seeds were recorded from T7 treatment and the lowest in T 1 treatment. The highest seed yield (1.75 t ha 4 ) and stover yield (3.91 t ha 4 ) were recorded in T 7 treatment and the lowest seed yield (1.29 t hi') and stover yield (339 t hai in "I' s treatment.

Ohaka, during December 2007 to May 2008, in Boro season to study the influence of nitrogen and plant spacing on growth and yield of born There were three doses of nitrogen (150. 200 and 250 kg hi') and four plant spacing's (25 cm x 10cm, 25 cm x IS cm and 25 cm N 20cm and 25 cm respectively). The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design with three replications. Nitrogen rates were placed in main plots and spacing in unit plots (sub-plot). The variety used in the experiment was BRRI dhan29. It was observed that higher rate ofnitrogen application and with higher plant spacing contributed highest plant height, number of tillers hill' and dry weight hilr' but closer spacing showed maximum leaf area index. In case of panicle length. 1000 grain weight, total grain yield, biological yield and harvest index were not responsive to higher rate of nitrogen application and maximum plant spacing but with the application of 200 kg N ha'with 25 cm x 15 cm plant spacing gave the highest grain yield (758 t hi'), biological yield, 1000 grain weight and harvest index.

BRRI dhan 29 Reza, Masud An experiment was carried out on BRRI dhan 29 at the experimental field of Sher-c- l3angla Agricultural University. Dhaka during November'07 to April'08 to evaluate the elIèct of three forms of N-fertilizer viz. pilled urea. urea super granules (USG) and foliar spray of urea and four levels of seedling/hill viz. 1. 2, 4 and 6. Forms of N- fertilizer were assigned in main plot and number of seedling/hill in the sub plots in a split-plot design with 3 replications .. EtTect of forms of nitrogen fertilizer and number of seedling/hill was signilicant in respect of all the plant and yield attributing characters like plant height. effective tiller/hill, ineffective tiller/hill. grain/panicle. sterile grain/paniele and thousand seed weight. Urea super granules (USG) have significantly highest grain yield (6.4 t/ha) lowest grain (5.1 c/ha) was found in the where as lowest straw yield (5.8 tAm) and bmw application of urca.Signilicantly highest grain yield (6.6 t/ha) was obtained from single seedling/hill followed by two seedlings/hill (6.4 t/ha). The highest straw yield (7.5 c/ha) was obtained from six seedlings/hill and the lowest (6.7 c/ha) was found from single seedling/hill. The interaction effect of forms of N-fertilizer and number of seedling/hill differed significantly for all the yield attributes, although the highest grain yield (7.0 c/ha) was produced from the treatment combination of Urea super granule (USG) seedling/hill followed by urea super granules x urea x single seedling/hill (6.83 c/ha) interactions. vi x 2 seedling/hill (6.93 c/ha) and prilled A Thesis Submitted to the Department of Horticulture Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE (MS) IN AGRONOMY Thu, 01 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMT http://localhost:8080/handle/123456789/1471 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z http://localhost:8080/handle/123456789/1470 GROWTH AND YIELD OF WHEAT AS INFLUENCED BY TIME OF IRRIGATION AND SPLIT APPLICATION OF NITROGEN HOSSAIN, MOSAREF The experiment was conducted at the experimental site of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University (SAU) during the period from December, 2007 to March, 2008 to study the growth and yield of wheat as influenced by time of irrigation and split application of nitrogen . The treatments comprised (A) three irrigation levels (i) no irrigation, (ii) one irrigation given at crown root initiation stage, (iii) two irrigations, one at crown root initiation stage and another at panicle initiation stage and (B) four split application of nitrogen viz. (i) no nitrogen application, (ii) one basal application of nitrogen at the time of sowing, (iii) two equal split- one at basal and another at 30 DAS, (iv) three equal split- one at basal, one at 30 DAS and the other at 60 DAS and (C) their combination effect. It was observed that the highest plant height, number of tillers/plant, leaf area index (LAI), fresh weight plant , dry weight plant -1 , spike length, number of spikelets spike -1 -1 , number of grains spike , 1000 seed weight, total grain yield, straw yield and harvest index were obtained with the application of irrigation and nitrogen. In case of the combined effect on irrigation and split application of nitrogen, the tallest plant (96.37 cm), highest number of tillers/plant (4.50), highest leaf area index (2.71), highest fresh weight (66.97g) and dry weight (36.56g) plant -1 , longest spike length (17.35 cm), highest number of spikelets spike -1 (60.00) and highest number of grains spike -1 1 (39.33), highest 1000 seed weight (48.50g), total grain yield (4.30 t ha ), straw yield (5.82 t ha -1 ) and harvest index (42.49%) were obtained with the combination of two irrigations with three split application of nitrogen. So, it may be concluded that the treatment combination of two irrigations at crown root initiation and panicle initiation with three splits of nitrogen one each at basal, 30 DAS and 60 DAS considered as the best treatment compared to all other treatments and it can be recommended for further trial.
