Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The experiment was conducted at Jute Research Regional Station Chandina, Comilla and Rangpur to find out the yield performance of jute in different sowing method. during 1999. The experiment was laid out in RCBD with four replications. Four different sowing methods viz., Line sowing by seed drill, Line sowing by stick with cane, Strip made from broadcast sown-crop and broadcast sowing (Control) were used as treatment. Results showed that at Manikganj station, the highest fibre and stick yield (2.26 & 4.32 tha^-1) were obtained from the method Line sowing by seed drill which was followed by broadcast sowing and Strip made from broadcast sown-crop. At Rangpur station, the highest fibre and stick yield (2.78 & 6.71 tha^-1) were obtained from the method broadcast sowing which was followed by Strip made from broadcast sown-crop and Line sowing by seed drill. At Comilla station, the highest fibre and stick yield (1.85 & 4.32 tha^-1) were obtained from the method broadcast sowing which was followed by Strip made from broadcast sown-crop and Line sowing by seed drill.

Location: Chandina, Comilla and Rangpur

Start Date: 01-03-1999

End Date: 31-12-1999

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

To find out the yield performance of jute in different sowing method.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted at Jute Research Regional Station Chandina, Comilla and Rangpur during 1999. The experiment was laid out in RCBD with four replications. Four different sowing methods viz., Line sowing by seed drill, Line sowing by stick with can, Strip made from broadcast sown crop by hoeing and broadcast sowing (Control) were used as treatment. Unit plot size would be 5m x 5m. Space around the field and between replications 1m and between plot to plot 50cm were maintained. Seeds were sown as per method. The crop was harvested at 120 DAS. Crop was sown towards the last week of March. Other cultural and intercultural practices were attended as per BJRI's recommendation.
