Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A field experiment was conducted at Pulses Research Center and Regional Agricultural Research Station, Ishurdi during rabi season of 2015-16 to find out the effect of different cultivars on the growth and yield of Khesari under relay condition. The experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design (RCB) with three replications. There were four cultivars BARI Khesari-1, BARI Khesari-2, BARI Khesari-3 and Sirajgonj local. The highest seed yield (853 kg/ha) was obtained from Sirajgonj local cultivar followed by BARI Khesari-2 (548 kg/ha) and BARI Khesari-1 (573 kg/ha). The lowest seed yield (350 kg/ha) was obtained from BARI Khesari-3. The highest pods/plant might be contributed to higher grain yield in Sirajgonj local cultivar.

Location: Pulses Research Center and Regional Agricultural Research Station, Ishurdi, Pabna, Bangladesh

Start Date: 00-00-2015

End Date: 00-00-2016

Program Area: Farming System

Commodity: Lentil, Rice

Objectives:

To find out the suitable cultivars of khesari for increasing production by the resource-poor farmers relaying with T.aman rice.

Methodology:

The field experiment was conducted at Pulses Research Center and Regional Agricultural Research Station, Ishurdi, Pabna during rabi season of 2015-16. The experiment was established sown on 16 November 2015 and harvested on 6 March 2016. Four cultivars such as BARI Khesari-1, BARI Khesari-2, BARI Khesari-3 and Sirajgonj local used as treatment. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The dimensions of the plots were 4 m x 5 m. The soil was sandy loam having pH 7.5.The fertilizers were used @ 20-20-20 NPK kg ha^-1. The seed was was sown in the existing rice field before 15 days of rice harvest and seed rate was 60 kg/ha. Rice was harvested retaing 40 cm rice straw from the ground level. One hand weeding at 40 days after sowing (DAS) were used for controlling weed. Tafgor @ 2ml/Lwas used one time for controlling aphid at 30 DAS. Data on yield contributing characters were recorded from 10 randomly selected plants from each plot and grain yield (kg/ha) were recorded from the whole plot after harvest. The GenStat 15 th Edition software package was used for all statistical analyses. The mean differences between treatments were separated by the least significant difference (LSD) at P≤ 0.05 for the measured variables.

Achievement/Findings:

The highest seed yield was obtained from Sirajgonj local which might be attributed to higher pods/ plant. The results of study are presented here for the first year. However, the experiment needs to be continued for the next year for concrete conclusion.
