Abstract:
The experiment was conducted in the farm area of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural
University, Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, Dhaka during the period of July to November,
2015 to find out the effect of plant growth regulator-flora on the growth and
yield of transplanted aman rice. BR 11

: No chemical fertilizer + 2 times spray of Flora. Data on
different yield contributing characters, yield, nutrient content in grain and straw,
nutrient uptake by grain and straw and characteristics of post harvest soil was
recorded and significant variation was observed for different treatments. At
harvest, the tallest plant

- Applications of RFD + 2 times spray of Flora was the superior among the other
treatments in consideration of yield contributing characters and yield of BR 11 in
transplanted aman season.
