Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The experiment was conducted at Jute Agriculture Experimental Station Manikganj, Jute Research Regional Station Rangpur and Faridpur in 1999 to evaluate BJRI's improved technologies over farmers' practices.. The treatments were T₁=broadcast sowing with farmers' seed, T₂=Improved seed and broadcast sowing, T₃=Improved seed and line sowing, T₄=Improved seed, line sowing and use of recommended dose of fertilizer, and T₅=Improved seed, line sowing and use of recommended dose of fertilizer and plant protection measures. The variety O-9897 was used as study material The experiment was laid-out in RCBD with three replications. Result showed that better fibre yield were produced from the treatment T₅=Improved seed, line sowing and use of recommended dose of fertilizer and plant protection measures at Manikganj, Rangpur and Faridpur (2.69, 2.56, 2.46 t/ha respectively). The lowest fibre yield was produced by the treatment T₁=broadcast sowing with farmers' seed at all the three locations.

Start Date: 01-03-1999

End Date: 31-12-1999

Program Area: Socio-economic and Policy

Objectives:

The experiment was conducted to evaluate BJRI's improved technologies over farmers' practices.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted at Jute Agriculture Experimental Station Manikganj, Jute Research Regional Station Rangpur and Faridpur in 1999. The treatments were T₁=broadcast sowing with farmers' seed, T₂=Improved seed and broadcast sowing, T₃=Improved seed and line sowing, T₄=Improved seed, line sowing and use of recommended dose of fertilizer, and T₅=Improved seed, line sowing and use of recommended dose of fertilizer and plant protection measures. The variety O-9897 was used as study material The experiment was laid-out in RCBD with three replications. Crops were sown on March. Unit plot size would be 3m x 3m. Space between plot to plot 50 cm and between two replications and around the field 1m were maintained. Plants were harvested at 120 DAS. Other cultural and intercultural operations were attended as per BJRI recommendation.
