Abstract:
A field experiment was carried out in Modhupur Tract (AEZ- 28) at research field
of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, during the Rabi season from
November 2014 to March 2015 to study the effect of Nitrogen and Molybdenum
on the growth and yield of bush bean (Phaseolus vulgares L.) cv. BARI Jhar
Sheem-2. The treatments consisted of 4 (four) levels of N (0, 60, 80, 100 kg ha
