Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Methods of raising vine cuttings of Black pepper in Soil bed, Earthen pot and Polyethylene bag were compared at the Fruit Research Station, Jaintiapur, Sylhet during 1986. The Soil bed method with 88% success in rooting was found superior to other two methods. Soil bed method for one's own plantation while Earthen pot or Polyethylene bag method for distribution to the growers may be recommended for raising vine cuttings of Black pepper.

Program Area: Variety and Species

Commodity: Black pepper

Objectives:

To find out a suitable method of raising vine cutting of black pepper

Methodology:

The study was conducted at the Fruit Research Station, Jaintiapur, Sylhet during 1986. Cuttings were made from central leader vines produced by the 15 year old mother plants cv. Jaintiapuri in all the cases. Each cutting consisted of three nodes only. There were three treatments viz. cuttings planted in (1) Soil bed, (2) Earthen pots and (3) Polyethylene bags.
