Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The trial was carried out at the farmer’s field of FSRD site, Kadamshahar, Godagari, Rajshahi during kharif-2 season 2015 to evaluate the high yielding blackgram genotypes in drought prone area. Seven genotypes/varieties of blackgram viz. BBLX-08010-2-1, BBLX-08010-4-1, BBLX-02005-1, BBLX-07002-5, BBLX-07002-1, local and BARI Mash-3 were tested in the farmer’s field. Among the tested genotypes/varieties BARI Mash-3 gave the maximum seed yield (1.40 t ha^-1) and local variety gave minimum seed yield (0.99 t ha^-1).

Keywords: Pulse, Kharif-2, BARI Mash-3, Black gram

Location: FSRD site, Kadamshahar, Godagari, Rajshahi, Bangladesh

Start Date: 00-00-2015

End Date: 00-00-2015

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Black gram

Objectives:

To find out suitable varieties of Black gram for Barind tract area.

Methodology:

An experiment on field screening for adaptability of blackgram was conducted at farmer’s field of FSRD site, Kadamshahar, Godagari, Rajshahi during kharif-2 season 2015. The experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with three replications. The unit plot size was 8 rows x 4m. Land preparation was done by ploughing and cross ploughing with country plough followed by laddering. The land was fertilized with 20-40-20-10 N-P-K-S kg ha^-1 (BARC, 2012) in the form of urea, triple super phosphate, muriate of potash and gypsum, respectively at the time of final land preparation. Blackgram seeds were sown in 27 August, 2015. First weeding was done at the time of first thinning at 25 days after planting. No irrigation was applied during the experimental period. When 80% of the pods turned brown in colour, the crop was harvested. The collected data were analyzed statistically using the analysis of variance (ANOVA) for each of the characters. The difference among treatment means was compared by Duncan's Multiple Range Test (Gomez and Gomez, 1984) with the help of a computer based statistical package program MSTAT-C.

Achievement/Findings:

The performance of BARI Mash-3 was better than tested genotypes/varieties at High Baribd Tract. Among the genotypes BBLX-08010-4-1 was suitable for High Barind Tract. So, BARI Mash-3 may be recommended for blackgram production High Barind Tract.
