A field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of integrated nutrient management on the growth and yield of NERICA 10 at the research farm olSher-eBangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh during Aus season (Mid MarchJuly), 2012. 100 kg N form urea and 20 kg N substituted by vermicompost (T 3 Treatment) produced the maximum yield and yield attributing characters of NI2RICA 10. But the eflèct of vermicompost along with nitrogenous fertilizer was the most pronounced than that of cowdung or nitrogenous fertilizer alone. Similar effects were also observed on N. P. K, S content and their uptake by NERICA 10. The effect of 100 kg N from urea along with 20 kg N from vermicompost (T 3 Treatment) was statistically identical to 100 kg N from urea with 20 kg N substituted by cowdung (1 4 Treatment), 80 kg N from urea with 40 kg N substituted by vermicompost (T 5 Treatment). 80 kg N from urea with 40 kg N substituted by cowdung (T 6 Treatment). 60 kg N from urea with 60 kg N substituted by vermicompost (Ti Treatment), 40 kg N from urea with 80 kg N substituted by vermicompost (1 9 Treatment) and 100% N substituted by equal portion of vermicompost and cowdung (Ti l Treatment). The effect of 100 kg N from urea along with 20 kg N from vermicompost (T 3 Treatment) Treatment). 100% recommended N i.e. 120 kg nitrogen / ha (T 2 Treatment). 60 kg N from urea with 60 kg N substituted by cowdung was dissimilar with Control (Ti (18 Treatment) and 40 kg N from urea with 80 kg N substituted by cowdung (Ti o Treatment). In post harvest soils, the contents of total nitrogen, available phosphorus. exchangeable potassium and available sulphur increased due to application of cowdung and vermicompost compared to initial soil. In the contrary, soil p1l value decreased slightly as compared to that of initial soil. The overall resulLs indicate that 100 kg N from urea along with 20 kg N from vermicompost was the best treatment in producing higher rice yield with sustenance of soil fertility.

AFRINA A field experiment was conducted at the research farm of Sher-e- Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, during November 2011 to March 2012 to study the effect of integrated nutrient management on the growth and yield of tomato. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replication of each treatment. The unit plot size was 6m2 (3mx2m). There were 9 treatment combinations in the experiment comprising 9 levels of N (180 kg/ha from Urea , 155 kg/ha from Urea + 25kg/ha from CD. 130 kg/ha from Urea + 50kg/ha from CD, 105 kg/ha from Urea ± 75kg/ha from CD, 80 kg/ha from Urea + 100kg/ha from CD, 55 kg/ha from Urea + 125kg/ha from CD, 30 kg/ha from Urea + 150kg/ha from CD) and single level of P & K.( 25kg P/ha from TSP + 60kg K!ha from MP). The maximum plant height (67.03cm) was recorded from T 5 treatment consisting of 80 kg N/ha from Urea +100 kg N/ha from CD and the minimum plant height (47.50 cm) was recorded from T 9 treatment i.e. control condition. The highest and lowest number of leaf per plant was 98.89 and 61.59 recorded from 1 4 and T 9 treatment respectively. The highest and lowest no. of fruit./plant was 67.07 and 38.51 recorded from T 5 and control treatment respectively. The highest and lowest yield per plot 46.43 kg/ha and 26.66 kg/ha was recorded from Ts and control treatment respectively. The maximum yield (77.39 tlha) was recorded from T5 treatment and the minimum yield (44.43 tTha) was recorded from the T 9 treatment. The highest nitrogen content (1.63%) in plant was recorded from 14 treatment and the lowest nitrogen content (0.82%) in plant was recorded from T 9 treatment.

ASHRAFUL The experiment was conducted in a net house of Soil Science Department at Sher-e- l3angla Agricultural University. Dhaka. Bangladesh during the period from July 2011 to April 2012 to study the effect of fertilizer and manure application on yield and yield components of rice and leaching toss of nutrients through undisturbed soil columns. The experiment consists of 2 factors i. e. soils and fertilizer plus manure. Two levels of soils (S1 = SAU Soil and L. it) r a r y S2= Sonargaon Soil) with 4 levels of fertilizer plus manure, as Control, T1 : 100% N120 P20K45 S20 (Recommended dose). 12: 50% NPKS + 5 ton cowdung/ha, 13 : 50% NPKS + 2.1 ton poultry manure/ha. were imposed during T.Aman and boro rice season. T. Aman (BR! 1) and Boro rice (BRRI dhan29) were grown in the soil cores and fertilizer and manure treatments were applied to the soils. There were 8 treatment combinations and 3 replications. Results revealed that soil had no significant effect on the yield and yield parameters. The yield contributing characters and yields were significantly affected by fertilizer and manure application. During T.Anian season, the highest effective tillers/core (17.00), plant height (105.57 cm), panicle length (23.70 cm), grain yield (0.046 kg/core) and straw yield (0.053 kg/core) were found from T 1 (R1)CF) treatment. The highest 1000 grain wt. (23.70 g) was obtained from T 2 and filled grain/panicle (121.83 ) from T 3 treatment and the lowest in To treatment. The highest grain yields was found by the application of Recommended dose of chemical fertilizer which was statically similar to T 3 treatment. The combined effects of soil and fertilizer were not significant but the highest grain (0.049 kg/core) and straw yields (0.056 kg/core) were recorded from S2T1 (Sonargaon Soil + 100% NPKS) and the lowest (0.010 kg/core) from S 1 T0 (SAU Soil) treatment combination. Leachate samples were collected at 25. 35, 45, 55. 65 and 75 days after transplantation of T. Aman rice and analyzed for N, P. K and S by using standard analytical method. The N concentration in the leachate during varied significantly with different soil, fertilizer treatment and time. The higher N concentrations were found in the leachate of SAU (5,) soil compared to Sonargaon soil. Higher leachate K concentrations were found in Sonargaon soil compared to SAU soil. Among the fertilizer treatments, significantly higher concentrations of K were found in the leachate of 100% chemical fertilizer treatment compared to other. 1-ligher S concentrations were found in the leachate of SAU soil compared to Sonargaon soil. The l3oro rice grain nutrient concentrations were significantly affected by the application of fertilizer and manure. The highest concentrations of grain N (1.205%). p (0.261%), K (0.296%) were recorded from 12 and concentration of S (0.125%) was highest from T treatment and lowest from To treatment. The higher nutrient concentrations were recorded in S 1 T3. S,T 2 5212. 5211, treatment combination. After harvest of J3oro rice, the post-harvest soil samples were collected from the soil cores up to 20 cm depth at 10 cm intervals. Similarly. highest grain and straw yields of horo rice were obtained from T 1 treatment which was statically and T3 treatment. The levels of pH and nutrient concentration were increased in the post harvest soils where manure plus inorganic fertilizer were used.
