Abstract:
An experiment was carried out at the research farm of Sher-e-Bangla
Agricultural University, Dhaka and chemical analysis was carried out in
the Soil Science Division of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute
(BAR!), Joydebpur, Gazipur during the period from November 2016 to
March 2017 to evaluate the effect of three levels of boron viz., 0, 2,4 kg B
-I -I
ha and zinc viz., 0, 5, 10 kg Zn ha on growth and yield and nutrients
content of lentil (BARI Masur-5). The maximum plant height (31.18 cm)
at harvest, branches plani' (28.73) at harvest, pods plant' (79.13) at
harvest, seed yield (1140.20 kg ha-'), stover yield (1649.73 kg ha"), 1000
seed weight (23.02 gm) were achieved by 2 kg ha" B and 5 kg ha' Zn
The highest amount (4.780 %) of nitrogen content was observed in lentil
when the field was fertilized with the dose of boron and zinc 4 kg ha4 B
and 0 kg Zn ha" The highest amount of phosphorus content (0.768 %)
was found under treatment 0 kg ha" B and 5 kg Zn ha-1 .The highest
amount (1.707 %) of potassium content were observed in lentil when field
was fertilized with the dose of 2 kg ha B and 5 kg Zn ha" .The highest
amount (10.08 ppm) of boron content was observed in Lentil when the
field was treated with 4 kg ha-1 B and 5 kg Zn ha-1 .The highest amount
(62.03ppm) of zinc content was observed in lentil when the field was
treated with 2 kg ha-1 B and 10 kg Zn hi'.
