Abstract/ Executive Summary:

An experiment was conducted at Manikganj, Kishoreganj and Comilla during 2009-10 with a view to study the effect of date of sowing on seed production of Advanced deshi jute breeding line BJC-2197 in late season. Advanced breeding line BJC-2197 of deshi jute was used as study material for seed production at late jute season. The experiment was laid out in RCBD design with three replications. Five different sowing dates viz., 15 July, 30 July, 15 August, 30 August and 15 September regarded as treatment. The variety CVL-1 was control. Results revealed that advanced breeding line BJC-2197 yielded numerically higher at all the locations. Comparatively higher yield produced at Manikganj which was followed by Comilla and Kishoreganj. It was also observed that the highest seed yield was recorded at Manikganj sown on 15 July which was followed by Comilla and Kishoreganj at the same date of sowing. The lowest seed yield and yield contributing characters were found in 15 September sowing at all the stations. All other characters gave the highest results according to seed yield.

Keywords: Jute, sowing date, late jute, seed.

Location: Jute Agricultural Experimental Station Manikganj, Jute Research Regional Station Kishoreganj and Chandina, Comilla

Start Date: 01-07-2009

End Date: 31-01-2010

Program Area: Variety and Species

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

To study the effect of date of sowing on seed production of Advanced deshi jute breeding line BJC-2197 in late season.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted at Manikganj, Kishoreganj and Comilla during 2009-10. Advanced breeding line BJC-2197 of deshi jute was used as study material for seed production at late jute season. The experiment was laid out in RCBD design with three replications. Five different sowing dates viz., 15 July, 30 July, 15 August, 30 August and 15 September regarded as treatment. The variety CVL-1 was control. Unit plot size was 4.0m x 2.5m. Space between plot to plot and around the field 1.0m and between replications 1.5m were maintained. Seeds were sown in line of 30 cm apart. Cultural and intercultural practices were attended as per BJRI's recommendation. The crop was harvested at proper maturity of the fruits of seed crop. The mean difference among the treatments were adjudged by the New Duncan`s Multiple Range Test.

Achievement/Findings:

The advanced breeding line BJC-2197 yielded numerically higher at all the locations. Comparatively higher yield produced at Manikganj which was followed by Comilla and Kishoreganj. It was also observed that the highest seed yield was recorded at Manikganj sown on 15 July which was followed by Comilla and Kishoreganj at the same date of sowing. The lowest seed yield and yield contributing characters were found in 15 September sowing at all the stations. All other characters gave the highest results according to seed yield.
