Abstract:
The experiment was conducted in the Horticulture Farm, Sher-e-Bangla
Agricultural University, Dhaka from November 2016 to February 2017. The
experiment consisted of two factors, such as Factor A: Lettuce variety
:
Green wave, V
2
: New red fire, V
3
: Legacy and Factor B: Manure
: 0
kg M/ha
1
: Cowdung @ 20 t/ha, M
: Poultry manure @ 8 t/ha. The
two factor experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with
three replications. Lettuce variety and manure significantly influenced on
different growth and yield parameter of lettuce varieties. In case of lettuce
variety, the highest yield
2
and the lowest yield
2
. Considering the manure application, M
1
produced the
highest yield
. Regarding
the interaction effect, the highest yield
1
M
2
and the lowest yield
2
2
M
. The highest
benefit cost ratio
1
M
and the lowest
benefit cost ratio
2
M
. So, variety Green wave with Poultry manure
@ 8 t/ha can be used for lettuce production.
