Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A study was carried out at the Fruit Research Farm of Horticulture Research Centre, BARI, Gazipur during 2017-18 to evaluate the growth, flowering and fruiting behavior of persimmon germplasm. The growth characteristics of the collected persimmon germplasm were studied. The tallest plant (1.90 m) with average number of branches (2.0) was recorded in the germplasm DK Joy-003. The shortest plant (1.35 m) with minimum number of branches (2.0) was found in DK Joy-006. The growth of all germplasm was satisfactory.

Location: Fruit Research Farm, BARI, Joydebpur, Gazipur, Bangladesh

Start Date: 00-00-2018

End Date: 00-00-2019

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Persimmon

Objectives:

To evaluate the performance of newly collected graft of persimmon germplasm from different countries of the world.

Methodology:

Director General of BARI has collected source of promising persimmon germplasm scion from Australia which has been successfully grafted and planted at the Fruit Research Farm, BARI, Joydebpur, Gazipur in 2018. There are two germplasm collected from Bhutan and China have been planted under same experiment. The plants were fertilized with cow dung (25 kg), TSP (200 g) and MoP (150 g) in the pit as basal dose and two months later, each plant was fertilized with 100 to 150 g urea and 100 g MoP. Besides this dose of fertilizer, the plants were fed with 150 g urea, 100 g MoP and 10 g furadan at February 2019. Irrigation was applied after fertilization in each installment. Insecticide of cypermethrion group was sprayed at the time of new vegetative flash (February – March) to control the chaffer beetle infestation.
