Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The study was conducted at Central Research Station, Jagir, Manikganj with a view to assimilation and partitioning of dry matter with carbon fixation and emissions of White jute (cv. CVL-1) and Tossa jute (cv. O-9897) in environmental stress condition for Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) to evaluate the emissions and the assimilation of nutrients as well as the biogas to the soil and water considering inputs and outputs to and from the jute production system boundary to the environment. Jute production system as a whole and two distinct retting methodologies (conventional whole plant retting and improved ribbon retting) were assessed for the environment as well as ecological health consequence. It is revealed from the study that the jute production system as a whole is environment friendly and improved retting (ribbon) practice emits negligible compared to conventional (whole plant) one.

Keywords: Assimilation,Carbon fixation,Emissions Jute, Environmental stress

Location: Central Research Station, Jagir, Manikganj

Program Area: Risk Management in Agriculture

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

1.To develop a computer simulation model of jute crop growth and assess environmental stress on growth.

2.To analyze management policies and strategies of jute crop production in Bangladesh.

3.To assess the climate change impacts of jute crop production in Bangladesh.

Methodology:

Design: Split plot. Plot size: 4.5m x 2.0m with 3 replications Plot to plot distance: 0.5m and block to block distance 1.0 m Variety: O-9897 and CVL-1 No. of factors: 2 A- Variety and B- Harvest (No of harvest 11; starting at the age of 20 to 120 DAS, intervals: 10 days).

Achievement/Findings:

Jute production system as a whole and two distinct retting methodologies (conventional whole plant retting and improved ribbon retting) were assessed for the environment as well as ecological health consequence. It is revealed from the study that the jute production system as a whole is environment friendly and improved retting (ribbon) practice emits negligible compared to conventional (whole plant)one.
