Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The experiment was conducted at Faridpur, Jessore and Dinajpur during 2007-08 to assess the optimum sowing date of Newly released variety BJRI Deshi Pat-7 (BJC-2142) for seed production at late season. The experiment was laid out in RCBD with four replications. Different sowing dates viz., 15 July, 30 July, 15 August, 30 August and 15 September were arranged as treatment of the study. The crop was harvested at proper maturity of the fruits of seed crop. Result revealed that the highest seed yields were obtained from Jessore (765 kg/ha)sown on 15 July which was followed by Faridpur(758 kg/ha) and Dinajpur (620 kg/ha) at the same date. The lowest seed yield and yield attributes were recorded crop sown on 15 September at all the locations. All other variables were also gave the highest results according to seed yield.

Keywords: Jute, Sowing date, Late jute seed.

Location: Jute Research Regional Station Faridpur, Sub station Monirampur, Jessore and Nashipur, Dijnajpur

Start Date: 01-03-2007

End Date: 31-01-2008

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

To find out the optimum date of sowing on seed production of newly released variety BJRI Deshi Pat-7 (BJC-2142) of Corchorus capsularis L. jute at late season.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted at Faridpur, Jessore and Dinajpur during 2007-08 to assess the optimum sowing date of newly released variety BJRI Deshi Pat-7 (BJC-2142) which was used as study material for seed production at late season. It was laid out in RCBD design with four replications. Five different sowing dates viz., 15 July, 30 July, 15 August, 30 August and 15 September were involved as treatments. Unit plot size would be 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. Other cultural and intercultural practices were attended as per BJRI's recommendation. The mean difference among the treatments were adjudged by the New Duncan`s Multiple Range Test.
