Abstract/ Executive Summary:

An experiment was conducted during the period from December to April, 1971-72 at the Bangladesh Agricultural University Farm, Mymens'ingh to investigate the effect of methods of planting and the application of urea on the yield and some other characters. of wheat cultiver IP 52. The crop was grown 10 two methods of planting, broadcast and line .owin. with three rates 'of Urea. Results indicated that line sowing method was found 10 be significantly superior. Split application ,of urea at the rates of 68 kg and 92 kg per hectare was found to be significantly superior to that of 46 kg per hectare.

Keywords: Effect, Planting method, Urea, Yield, Wheat

Location: At the Bangladesh Agricultural University Farm, Mymensingh

Start Date: 00-00-1971

End Date: 00-00-1972

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Wheat

Objectives:

To find out the better method of planting and effective method and doses of nitrogen application on the yield of wheat in Mymensingh.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted during the period from December to April, 1971-72 at the Bangladesh Agricultural University Farm, Mymensingh. The soil of the experimental plot was characterized by sandy loam having pH 6.5 ( Islam, 1967 ). Wheat cultivars, IP 52 was used in the experiment. This cultivar was originally collected from the Pusa Research Station of India in the early days and was gradually acclamatised under Bangladesh condition. Basal applications of P as TSP @ 92 kgjha and K as muriate of Potash @ 68 kgrha were made at the time of sowing. Nitrogen was applied as urea @ 46, 46 +22 and 46+46 kg per hectare. First rate of 94 kg urea was applied in each plot along with the basal applications of P and K. Addi- tional 22 and 46 kg urea as second and third rates of N was-top dressed in two equal splits. First half was applied at 20 days after germination of wheat and the second at 30 days after the first .application.
