Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The experiment were undertaken in twelve plots at Manikganj,Rangpur,Faridpur,Monirampur,Kishoreganj and Chandina stations of BJRI at 2000 following RCBD. At farmers condition, the advanced line OM-1 gave a bit higher yield than the check O-9897 in all tested sites. Pooled mean results on fibre yield (t/ha) over station indicated that the tested variety OM-1 (2.87 t/ha) gave 5.51 percent higher yield than O-9897 (2.73 t/ha). At regional station, OM-1 also gave higher fibre yield (2.62 t/ha) than the check O-9897 (2.36 t/ha). The OM-1 gave 10.54% higher yield compared to O-9897.

Keywords: On farm yield trial, Advanced line, Tossa jute,O-72

Location: Manikganj,Rangpur,Faridpur,Monirampur,Kishoreganj and Chandina

Start Date: 15-03-2000

End Date: 30-12-2000

Program Area: Variety and Species

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

1.To evaluate the yield of an advanced lines (O-M-1)at farmers field in different regions as well as on stations

2.To evaluate adaptability of advanced lines (OM-1)at farmers field in different regions as well as on stations

Methodology:

One advanced line,OM-1 was tested at farmer’s plots and regional station under early sowing condition. The variety O-9897 was used as check. Each plot of 2.5 dec. was used for OM-1 and O-9897 respectively. The seeds of both varieties will be sown on 15th March. Equal quality of seed of the varieties would be sown and equal number of plants would be maintained for the varieties. Intercultural operation would be done in time simultaneously for whole plots as per recommendation.The plots must be located preferably at roadside. The sown plots will be harvested 120 days sowing. Necessary data (plant population,plant height and fiber yield) were recorded.
