Abstract:
The experiment was conducted to investigate The effect or Sowing date and nitrogen on the growth and
Yield or French bean (OARI Zhar Shecm-I) at the farm of Sher-e-Bangia Agricultural University. Dhaka.
111C experiment included two factors: A: Sowing date (TI -15 November, Tz -30 November. T, -IS
December and T. -30 December) and Factor 0: Nitrogen level (N. - 0 kg N/ha, NI -45 kg N/ha. N1- 90 kg
N/ha and Nj -135 kg Nllm). The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design
(RCI3() with three repltcations. The results of this study revealed that treatment TI gave the highest yield
of the green pod (15.6 t/ha) among the other treatments. Nitrogen fertilizer also showed significant variation
among the truncate and '1 produced the highest green pod yield (15.7 rha). Thus. th" ,Iudy
demonstrated that TI ! gave the highest green pod yield of French bean (17.9 (1113)as well as the highest
net return (TK. I. 70.023/b:l) and benefit-cost ratio (2.7) among the other treatment combinations.
