Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A field experiment was conducted at three Cotton Research Farms in Sreepur, Sadarpur & Jagadishpur during Kharif-2 in 2002-2003 growing periods to evaluate added fertilizers effects on cotton strain BC-0397. The performance of six different fertilizer dose viz. 1. N fertilizer, 2. N+P fertilizers, 3. N+P+K fertilizers, 4. N+P+K+S fertilizers, 5. N+P+K+S+Zn fertilizers, & 6. N+P+K+S+ZN+B fertilizers were evaluated against control (without fertilizer). At Sreepur and Sadarpur farms, the highest seed cotton yield 2.47 and 4.32 t/ha respectively were obtained from N+P+K+S+Zn+B fertilizers applied plots and the lowest from plots without fertilizers. However, at Jagadishpur Farm, the highest seed cotton yield 1.60 t/ha was obtained from N+P+K fertilizer applied plot.

Location: Sreepur, Gazipur; Sadarpur, Dinajpur and Jagadishpur, Jessore

Start Date: 00-00-2002

End Date: 00-00-2003

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Cotton

Objectives:

The objective of this study is to determine the fertilizer requirement of newly develop genotype.

Methodology:

Field experiments were conducted at three Cotton Research Farms in Sreepur, Sadarpur & Jagadishpur, Bangladesh during Kharif-2 in 2002-2003 growing periods to evaluate added fertilizers effects on cotton strain BC-0397. There were seven treatments viz. A. no fertilizer, B. N fertilizer, C. N+P fertilizers, D. N+P+K fertilizers, E. N+P+K+S fertilizers, F. N+P+K+S+Zn fertilizers, & G. N+P+K+S+ZN+B fertilizers. Treatments were allocated to plots in RCBD with three replications. The unit plot size was 6m X 4.5m. Cotton variety CB-9 was used as test material. Urea, TSP, MOP, Gypsum, Zinc sulphate and Borax were used at the rate of 250, 175, 150, 100, 5, 5, & 5 kg/ha respectively as the source of N, P, K, S, Zn, & B as per treatments. All other production practices are farm standard. Data were collected from the three middle rows to avoid border effect and were analyzed by using MSTAT.

Achievement/Findings:

The seed cotton yield and gross benefit increase with the additive fertilizer. The results suggested that BC-0397 strain should be received N+P+K+S+Zn+B fertilizers for profitable crop production.
