Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Results showed that the treatment T₂(recommended dose of NPK fertilizer along with basal application of boron @2 kg ha^-1 produced the highest grain yield (1.27 t ha^-1). On the other hand, seed yield obtained from T₅ was similar to T₂. Seed yield of the treatment T₇ was the lowest.

Keywords: Effect, Boron application, Timing, Yield, Mung bean

Location: BINA HQ, Mymensingh

Start Date: 05-03-2006

End Date: 12-05-2006

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Mungbean

Objectives:

To evaluate the effect of boron application methods and timing on the yield performance of Binamoog-5

Methodology:

A field experiment was carried out to assess the effect of boron application methods and timing on yield and yield components of mung bean at BINA farm, Mymensingh with the treatments, T₁ = NPK recommended dose (RD), T₂ = T₁+ Boron basal application @ 2 kg ha^-1, T₃ = T₁+ Boron basal application @ 4 kg ha^-1, T₄ = T₁+ Boron basal application @ 6 kg ha^-1, T₅ = T₁+ Boron basal application @ 1 kg ha^-1 and spraying by dissolving in water @ 1 kg/ha at the commencement of flowers, T₆ = T₁+ Boron basal application @ 2 kg ha^-1 and spraying by dissolving in water @ 2 kg ha^-1 at the commencement of flowers, T_{7 =}T₁+ Boron basal application @ 3 kg ha^-1 and spraying by dissolving in water @ 3 kg ha^-1at the commencement of flowers. The mungbean variety used in the experiment was Binamoog-5.

Achievement/Findings:

Yield performance of Binamoog-5 was evaluated without boron and with three rates of Boron applied in two different methods-soil application and spraying i.e., ½ basal and the rest spraying at flowering commencement. Boron @ 2 kg ha^-1applied 1 kg as basal and 1 kg as spraying at flowering commencement along with NPKS produced maximum yield of 1.27 t ha^-1.
