Abstract:
An experiment was conducted at the Agronomy lick]. Sher-e-FIarigla
Agricultural University. Dhaka from April 2007 to June 2007 to observe the
influence
of
fertilizer level and plant population on the per!brmancc of
munghean. The treatments were four fertilizer levels viz. wtthoui fertilizer, half
of' the recommended close of fertilizer, recommended dose of' fertilizer and
double
of
the recommended dose of fertilizer, and four plant populations VI?..
15. 30. 45 and 60 plants ni'
2 of mungbean ( Vigna radiata). The experiment was
laid out in split plot design with three rephcations. The result revealed that
yield attributes and other characters were increased significantly by the
application of different fertilizer treatment over the conuol. The above
parameters were the highest when the crop fertilized with double of the
recommended dose and recommended dose of fertilizer treatment. Per plant
performance was better in IS plants rn'2 but the yield ha" was significantly
highest in 45 plants ni'2 . Taller plant was observed in double of the
recommended close of fertilizer with 60 plants ni'2. Higher number of branches
plani'. pods plant''. pod length. seeds pod
weight of 1001 seeds, harvest
index and dry weight plant' were obtained from double of' the recommended
(lose of fertilizer with IS plants
ju.2.
The highest seed yield (1.22 t ha'') was
obtained from double of the recommended dose of fertilizer with 45 plants rn'
2
which was statistically similar with double and recommended dose of' fertilizer
with 60. 45 and 30 plants m'
