Abstract:
An experiment was conducted at the Agronomy field, Sher-e-J3angla Agricultural university.
Dhaka, during August to October, 2008 to study the response of mungbcan varieties under
different spacing management. Four mungbean varieties; (i) V
1 = BARI mung-3, (ii) V
2 = BAR!
mung-4, (iii) V
3
= BAR1 mung-5 and (iv) V
4
= BAR! mung-6 with four plant spacing;i

4 =40cm
their combination were used under the present studY)The experiment was laid out in a
Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) (factorial) with three replications, tile results
showed that growth, yield and yield attrtbutes of mungbean significantly responed to the
different varieties, spacings and their combined effectsJ(\t harvest, variety BAR! mung-6 gave

plant population per unit area. where as S1 ( 30 cmx 10 cm) gave maximum seed yield (3520 kg
ha") and harvest index (38.17%) with higher plant establishment. The combination effect of
BAR! mung-6 along with spacing 30 cmx 10 cm showed maximum grain yield (1645 kg ha")
with higher value of harvest index (40.16%).
