Among the management practices studied application of chemical fertilizer @ 20-40-20 of NPK kg/ha combined with weed management and spraying by symbush gave significantly the highest seed yield (1280 kg/ha) which was statistically identical with the treatment chemical fertilizer + weeding (1230 kg/ha). It was 91.05 and 83.58% higher compared to control. The lowest seed yield (670 kg/ha) was obtained from the cntrol (Tasble 1). The plant height, number of pods/plant, pod length, number of seeds/pods and 1000-seeds weight were also significantly influenced due to different management practices.Application of chemical fertilizer @ 20-40-20 of NPK kg/ha combined with one hand weeding at 25 days after emergence and one spraying by symbush at podding stage aso gave the highest net return and BCR but the lowest was in control.

To find out the optimum management practices for the maximization and economically viable yield of mungbean
An experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Rahmatpur, Barisal during late rabi season of 2001-2002 to find out the optimum and sustainable management practices for the maximization and economically viable yield of mungbean where BARI Mung-5 was used as experimental material. There were eight treatments such as :-T1=Chemical fertilizers (CF) : 20-40-20 NPK kg/ha,T2=Weeding at 25 days after emergence (W), T3=Spraying against insect (SP), T4=CF + W, T5=CF + SP, T6=W + SP, T7=CF + W + SP, T8=c ontrol (only seed sown).The experiment was laid out in a RCB design with 3 replications. The unit plot size was 5m x 3m. Seeds were sown on 30 January, 2002 at the seed rate 30 kg/ha (due to bold seed) maintaining the spacing 30cm x 10 cm. Fertilizers application and other necessary management practices were done as per the experimental treatment specifications.Final crop harvest was on 25 April,2002. After harvesting the crop, data on different plant characters were recorded and analyzed statistically. Therefore, the means were separated by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) for better interpretation of the results.

It was found that application of chemical fertilizer @ 20-40-20 of NPK kg/ha as basal combined with weeding at 25 days after emergence and spraying by symbush @ 1.0 ml/L water during podding stage is optimum for mungbean cultivation in Southern region.
