Abstract:
The study was conducted at Horticultural farm, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural
University, Dhaka, Bangladesh, during August 2013 to March 2014. The
experiment had two factors. Factor A: Corm division such as, C

solution at G

and lowest no. of spike

. For pre-soaking of corm with 100 ppm GA
solution, highest no. of spike
and lowest no. of spike

. For interaction effect, highest no. of spike

and lowest no. of spike

similar in respect of spike and corm production. The highest benefit cost ratio
