RESPONSE OF HEAT TOLERANT WHEAT VARIETIES TO INORGANIC AND ORGANIC FERTILIZER MANAGEMENT

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the response of heat tolerant wheat varieties to inorganic and organic fertilizer management at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from November, 2017 to March, 2018. The experiment consisted of two factors; as Factor A: Varieties = BARI Gom 29

and V 2 = BARI Gom -30, and factor B: Fertilizer managements = Recommended fertilizer doses 2 = Compost + 75% RF, F = Compost + 50% RF, F 4 = Compost + 25% RF, F 5 = Poultry manure + 75% RF, F = Poultry manure + 50% RF and F = Poultry manure + 25% RF. The experiment was laid out following split-plot design with three replications where main plot was for variety and sub plot was for fertilizer treatment. The results of the investigation revealed that BARI Gom -29 1 7
