Abstract:
The study was conducted at the Horticultural Farm of Sher-e-Bangla
Agricultural University. Dhaka during the period from March to July 2008. The
experiment consisted with two factors. Factor A : Three Planting times: 11
1
:10
March; P2 : 25 March and P3
: 9 April and Factor B: Four levels spacing; S
1: 60
cm
x
30 cm: 52: 60 cm
x
40 cm; 83: 60 cm
x
50 cm and 54: 60 cm
The experiment was laid out with Randomized Complete Block Design with
three replications. In case of planting time the highest yield (27.90 1./ha) was
observed from P2 and the lowest (24.62 tlha) was found in P
1
. In case of
spacing the highest yield (29.40 1/ha) was found in S
1
and the lowest (21.64
tlha) was recorded from S1 . For combined effect the highest yield (31.85 tJha)
was observed from P7S3 and the lowest (20.47 1./ha) was recorded from P1 S1 .
So. it may be concluded that 25 March planting time with 60 cm
spacing are suitable for growth and yield of Indian Spinach.
