AMAN RICE VARIETIES AS AFFECTED BY SEEDLING NUMBER HILL 1 AND UREA SUPERGRANULES MASUM, SHEIKH MUHAMMAD A field experiment was conducted at the experimental field of Sher-e-iIangla agricultural university during July to December 2007 to find out the effect of four levels of seedling hill4 vii; I. 13 and 4 and two forms of nitrogen fertilizer-prilled urea (PU) and urea supergranules (USC) on growth, yield and yield components of modem (BRRI Dhan 44) and traditional (Nizershail) transplant oman rice. The experiment was laid out in a split- split-plot design with three replications. Urea was top dressed 58 kg N haS ' in three equal splits at 10, 30 and 50 DAT. The USC (1.8 g) was placed at 5-10cm soil depth at 10 DAT in the center of four hills in alternate rows 1 granule in one spot to supply 58 kg N haS '. Results showed that rice varieties differed significantly in all growth characters and BRRI Dhan 44 produced higher grain yield (4.85 t ha'). Two seedlings hill' gave the highest grain yield (3.96 t hi') while four seedlings hill' had the highest numbers of total tiller hill', leaf area index and total dry matter. USC performed well in growth and gave higher grain yield (12.2%) over PU. Interaction results showed that significantly higher grain yields were given by transplanting one seedling of 13RRl Dhan 44 (5.38 t hi'), application of USC in I3RRI Dhan 44 (5.08 t hi') and transplanting one seedling hilr' with application USC (4.18 t had) and finally placement of USC by transplanting one seedling hill' of BRRI Dhan 44 (5.77 hi'). The higher grain yield was attributed mainly to the number of effective tillers bill', filled grains panicle' and 1000-grain weight.

ASADUZZA MAN An experiment Was conducted at the experiment field of the Department of Agronomy. Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University: I)haka to evaluate the ciThet of nitrogen and irrigation managements on the yield attributes and yields of mungbean (V/gnu rat/ia/a lj.) cv.BARI mung-5 during the period from March 2006 to May 2006. The trial comprised often treatments such as T1 control. 12 20 kg N ha 4 as basal. 13=20 kg N ha4 as basal with one irrigation at first flowering stage, 1 4 =30 kg N ha" as basal. T5 30 kg N hzi' as basal with one irrigation at first flowering stage. •1'--40 kg N ha" as basal. 'F 40 kg N as basal with one irrigation at first flowering stage. lhasal 10 kg N ha' and 10 kg N h&' as split with one irrigation at first flowering stage, l 9=bacal 15 kg N ha'' and 15 kg N ha'' as split with one irrigation at first flowering stage and 1, 0—basal 20 kg N h& and 20 kg N ha'' as split with one irrigation at first flowering stage. Irrespective of treatment di rierenees the mungbcan plant as a pulse crop showed a lag phase in early growth stage (up to 40 DAS) while increase of growth parameters like number of leaves, leaf dry weight and steam dry weight per plant very slow. Thus, initiation of flowers (35 DAS) caused low dry matter production. Application of 30 kg N ha'' as basal with one irrigation at first flowering stage (35 DAS) improved the growth parameters significantly. This greater dry matter eventually supported the plant to produce more number of branches and pods per plant. which resulted with maximum seed yield per plant (5.53 g) or per hectare (1.65 ton). A Iiinctional positive relationship was observed among number of branches per plant. pods per plant. seeds per pod and seed yield.

F3arnali. There were four nianunal doses, namely. M 1 - Inorganic Fertilizer (IF) only. M 2 - IF + cow-dung 5 t ha NI ) - IF + cow-dung lOt ha' and M4 - IF + cow-dung 15 t ha and two split applications of nitrogen. viz. SP 1 -2 splits and SP:-3 splits. Manuring was placed in main plot and split application of nitrogen in subplot each measuring Sm X 3m In a split plot design used with three replications. Four nutrients were applied which were N, P 205 , 1(20 and Sat the rate of 115 -72 - 60 - 22.32 kg ha1 and three nutrients were supplied in the form of Urea, TSP, MP and Gypsum respectively In SP 1 basal dose of urea was applied at final land preparation, and split at 25 and split at 45 days of sowing. In SP 2 basal dose urea was applied at final land preparation, and 3 splits respectively at 25. 45 and 65 days of sowing. Inorganic fertilizers ± cow-dung 15 t ha 1 (M4 treatment) gave the best response for all the parameters, whereas inorganic fertilizer (IF) only (M 1 treatment) gave the poorest response. Grain and stalk yields ranged respectively from 5.43 to 9.02 t ha 4 and from 6.76 to 12.16 t ha" due to different manuring treatments. The highest grain yield was obtained from M4 treatment, identically followed by M.; treatment, Grain protein content 10.6 was from M1 treatment and 13.16 from M., treatment, the latter being identically followed by M, and M2 treatments: Grain N and protein contents were nearly 2 times higher than those in stalk. Three split applications of N gave higher grain yield and tended to increase nutrient content of grain and stalk over 2 split applications of nitrogen. Results of the present study showed that application of cow-dung at the rate of 10 and IS ha' together with recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers improved grain yield and quality over inorganic fertilizers alone and 3 split applications of nitrogen increased grain yield and tended to improve grain quality of maize over 2 split applications of nitrogen.
