Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the comparative performance of IR64 and check varieties (BR14, BRRI dhan28, BRRI dhan29 and BRRI dhan36) and validate the performance of dapog, direct seeding and LCC technologies. Plant Breeding Division conducted experiments at farmers fields in Boro season on different advanced lines at Narshingdi, Kishoreganj, Rangpur and One Upazila from each district was selected and a total of 37 farmers were involved in this study. These farmers were interviewed with a structured questionnaire. Tabular analysis was used for the presentation of findings. Farmers in the study areas preferred IR64 in Boro season because of its short duration, high market price as well as fine grain quality. Higher yield was obtained in direct seeding than other the methods of cultivation. The use of LCC increases yield and reduces urea fertilizers.

Keywords: Technology validtion, Dapog, Direct seeding and LCC

Location: Narshingdi, Kishoreganj and Rangpur

Start Date: 01-07-2000

End Date: 30-06-2001

Commodity: Validation

Objectives:

The present study was undertaken to

evaluate the comparative performance of IR64 and check varieties (BR14,BRRI dhan28, BRRI dhan29 and BRRI dhan36) and
validate the performance of new technologies like dapog, direct seeding and LCC.

Methodology:

Plant Breeding Division conducted experiments at farmers fields in Boro season on different advanced lines at Narshingdi, Kishoreganj, Rangpur and One Upazila from each district was selected and a total of 37 farmers were involved in this study. These farmers were interviewed with a structured questionnaire. Tabular analysis was used for the presentation of findings.

Achievement/Findings:

Farmers of Narshingdi, Kishorgong and Rangpur districts preferred IR64 in Boro because of its short duration, high market price as well as fine grain quality though yield was lower than BRRI dhan29. Dapog, direct seeding and transplanting methods were compared and higher yield was obtained in direct seeding than other the methods. The use of LCC increases yield and reduces urea fertilizer use.
