Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The breeding line BJC-2142 and variety CVE-3 (check) was tested at six different sites in farmer’s field under Faridpur region. The advanced line BJC-2142 gave significantly higher fibre yield (2.74 t/ha) and stick yield (5.25 t/h) than the check variety CVE-3. Plant height and base diameter also performed better than the check variety. This result indicates that BJC-2142 has got high yield potentiality than CVE-3. It has also great advantage over control through its super white fibre quality. In respect of brightness, breaking twist and fineness BJC-2142 was found better than the variety CVE-3 though it possessed the highest value of bundle strength. In 2006, the strain BJC-2142 was evaluated by the members of the NSB Team of Faridpur and recommended for cultivation as a variety in Faridpur region and it is under process for formal release as a commercial variety.

Keywords: On farm,Yield trials, Advanced breeding lines, White jute.

Location: Faridpur

Start Date: 16-03-2002

End Date: 30-07-2006

Program Area: Variety and Species

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

To evaluate the yield and adaptability of different advanced lines at farmer’s field in different regions as well as on stations.

Methodology:

A plot of 10 dec. was divided into two equal halves. One plot of 5 dec. were used for BJC-2142 and the other for CVL-1. The seeds of variety/line were sown in broadcast during late March. Intercultural operations were done in time simultaneously for whole plots as per recommendation. The crop was harvested at 120 days after germination. The plots were located preferably at roadside. Similar set of experiment was conducted in regional stations for evaluation.
