Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A field experiment was conducted at the char area of Mornea, Gangachara, Rangpur under ARS, Burirhat, Rangpur during rabi season 2012-13. The objective of the work was to observe the yield performance of different varieties of garlic in different planting dates at char areas of northern region. The experiment was carried out in split plot design with three replications. Five sowing dates viz. S1:30 Oct, S2:15 Nov, S3:30 Nov, S4:15 Dec and S5:30 Dec were assigned in main plot and three varieties viz. V1: BARI Roshun-1; V2: BARI Roshun-2 and V3: local were in sub plots. The highest (5.53 t/ha) yield was recorded from BARI Roshun-1 which was statistically similar with local variety and the lowest (4.76 t/ha) from BARI Roshun-2.With the delay in planting time from Oct.30 yield was decreased. The highest (5.53) bulb yield was recorded when planting was done on Oct.30 and the lowest (3.22 t/ha) was obtained from Dec.30.All the garlic varieties performed better in October 30 planting. BARI Roshun-1 also performed better in Nov 15 planting.

Keywords: Garlic varieties, Sowing time, Char area

Location: ARS, Burirhat, Rangpur

Start Date: 00-00-2012

End Date: 00-00-2013

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Garlic

Objectives:

To find out the performances of garlic varieties in the char areas of northern region.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted at the char area of Mornea, Gangachara, Rangpur under ARS, Burirhat, Rangpur during rabi season 2012-13. The experiment was carried out in split plot design with three replications. Five sowing dates viz. S1:30 Oct, S2:15 Nov, S3:30 Nov, S4:15 Dec and S5:30 Dec were assigned in main plot and three varieties viz. V1: BARI Roshun-1; V2: BARI Roshun-2 and V3: local were in sub plots. The fertilizers were applied at the rate of 120-60-160-40-4 kg/ha of N P K S and Zn. Half of urea and all other fertilizers were applied as basal during final land preparation. Remaining urea were applied as top-dress in two equal splits at 25 and 50 days after sowing. Size of the plots was 4m x 3m and spacing was 20cm x 10cm. Intercultural operations were done as per needed. Daily maximum and minimum temperatures were recorded from October 2012 to May 2013. Data on yield and yield attributes were recorded.

Achievement/Findings:

The highest (5.53 t/ha) yield was recorded from BARI Roshun-1 which was statistically similar with local variety and the lowest (4.76 t/ha) from BARI Roshun-2.With the delay in planting time from Oct.30 yield was decreased. The highest (5.53) bulb yield was recorded when planting was done on Oct.30 and the lowest (3.22 t/ha) was obtained from Dec.30 plantig. All the garlic varieties performed better in October 30 planting. BARI Roshun-1 also performed better in Nov 15 planting.
