Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A field trial was conducted at the farmers' field of ICM club members at Shibpur, Puthia, Rajshahi during kharif-1 2010-11 with a view to popularize high yielding BARl released mungbean varieties among the farmers of the Puthia. The trial consists of two mungbean varieties viz., BARl Mung 5 and BARl Mung 6. Seed yield was differed from the varieties. Between the varieties, BARI Mung-6 produced the maximum seed yield (1.413 t ha^-1) than BARI mungbean 5 (1.135 t ha^-1). Considering the seed yield, BARl Mung-6 is the suitable variety for mungbean production in AEZ-11.

Keywords: Mungbean, AEZ-11, Yield, Varieties

Location: Shibpur, Puthia., Rajshahi

Start Date: 00-00-2010

End Date: 00-00-2011

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Mungbean

Objectives:

To popularize high yielding BARl released mungbean varieties among the farmers of the AEZ-11.

Methodology:

A field trial was conducted at the farmers' field of ICM club members at shibpur, Puthia., Rajshahi during kharif-1 season of 2010-2011. The trial consists of two mungbean varieties viz., BARl Mung-5 and BARI Mung-6. The unit plot size was 0.5 bigha. Fertilizers were applied as BARI recommended dose of 12-19-17-10-1 kg N P K S B ha^-1 in the form of urea, triple super phosphate, muriate of potash, gypsum and borax, respectively. Full doses of fertilizers were applied according to individual plot and mixed with soil at the time of final land preparation. Mungbean seeds were broadcasted on 14-16 March 2011. The crop was harvested at maturity on 21 May-12 June 2011. Intercultural operations viz. weeding, thinning, fungicide and insecticide spray were done in order to provide normal plant growth. Yield and yield contributing characters of mungbean varieties were recorded. Observations were made on yield components from 10 randomly selected plants per plot. Seed yield was recorded plot-wise and then converted to ton per hectare.
