There were nine treatments in the experiment viz., T1 = Boiled with Tamarind leaf + Cowa leaf (50g leaf/liter water), T2 = Soaking and boiled with fermented rice starch (250ml/liter water), T3 = Boiled with white vinegar (100ml/liter water), T4 = Boiled with cowa leaf + Vinegar (25g cowa leaf/liter water and 50ml vinegar/liter water), T5 = Boiled with Detergent powder (10g/liter water), T6 = Boiled with Fermented rice starch + Arrowroot (fermented rice starch 250ml/liter water and arrowroot 5g/liter water), T7 = Boiled with Tamarind leaf + Cowa leaf + Rice starch (50g leaf/liter water and fermented rice starch 250ml/liter water), T8 = Boiled with Rice starch + Fermented milk (fermented rice starch: milk = 10: 1), and T9 = Control (no treatment). The experiment was conducted in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three replications. The chemical treatment had significant effect on the quantitative and qualitative traits of murta cane. In terms of qualitative traits, the lowest average value (2.58) was recorded in treatment T7 that denoted from very good to good quality of shitalpati followed by T4 treatment (rating 2.67). The rating from good to moderate qualities of shitalpati were found in T6 (3.33), closely followed by T2 (3.42) and T1 (3.42) treatment. Considering the average value of the qualitative traits (brightness, surface glossiness, surface smoothness and comfort), the treatments T7, followed by T4 and T8 could be applied for the treatment of murta cane towards weaving very good to good qualities of shitalpati.

Seven entries of betel nut viz., E1 (AC Rah-01), E2 (AC Rah-02), E3 (AC Rah-03), E4 (AC Rah-04), E5 (AC Rah-05), E6 (AC Rah-06) and E7 (AC Rah-07) were used as testing materials. The germplasm had been collected from different regions of Bangladesh since 1973. Three years average results showed that significant variations were observed among the evaluated betel nut germplasm. The maximum fresh and dry nut yield with husk (34.48 and 12.07 t/ha, respectively) was obtained from AC Rah-02 that was identical to AC Rah-01 (28.24 and 10.57 t/ha, respectively). Results revealed that the three years average yield performances of AC Rah-02 and AC Rah-01 were higher compared to that of other tested entries. Maturing condition of AC Rah-01 was late but early maturity was observed in AC Rah-02 and other tested entries. Nut shapes of AC Rah-01 and AC Rah-02 were oblong and oval, respectively. The laboratory analyses results revealed that alkaloids that caused oral cancer was less (3.95 mg/g) and the Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power that cures the disease was higher (10.20 mgAAE/g) in AC Rah-01. The amount of total alkaloids (1.35%) and Arecoline content (4.69 mg/g) that cause cancer in the mouth were lower in AC Rah-02. Considering yield potentiality, maturity condition (late and early), lower incidences of insect-pest and diseases, and biochemical properties (higher Antioxidant power and lower contents of Alkaloids or Arecoline), AC Rah-01 and AC Rah-02 have been selected as promising entries of betel nut towards releasing new varieties for Barishal region of Bangladesh.

Treatments included in the experiment were: T1= Hybrid maize normal row (MNR) (60cm × 20cm) + 1 row jute (33%), T2= MNR (60cm × 20cm) + 2 row jute (66%), T3= MNR (60cm × 20cm) + 3 row jute (100%), T4= MNR (60cm × 20cm) + jute broadcast (100%) and T5= Sole maize (60 cm × 20 cm). The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. At Gazipur, Light availability on jute decreased with the increase of shade produced by maize canopy over the time up to 40 DAS (at harvest of jute) under intercrop situation and the highest light availability was observed on jute in T4 treatment. The maximum grain yield of maize was in sole crop and it was decreased by 1-6 % at Gazipur and 2-9 % at Jamalpur due to intercropping. Maize equivalent yield (MEY) of intercropping treatments showed better performance than sole maize. The highest MEY (19.28 t/ha at Gazipur and 17.41 t/ha at Jamalpur), gross margin (Tk. 252040/ha at Gazipur and Tk. 313380/ha at Jamalpur) and benefit cost ratio (3.65 and 3.33 at Gazipur and Jamalpur, respectively) were observed in T4 treatment among the intercropping treatments.

This experiment was carried out to explore the drought tolerance ability of four mungbean varieties based on their water relation and performance of some growth parameters. The experiment was conducted in pot at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University (BSMRAU), Gazipur from 27th March to 15th May 2017, under a semi-controlled (vinylhouse) condition. Three different water regimes 50 to 60% field capacity (FC), 70 to 80% FC, 90 to100% FC and four mungbean varieties namely BARI Mung-5, BARI Mung-6, BU mug 2, BU mug 4 were used as treatment variable. Among the three water regimes, 50%-60% FC was considered as the severe drought stress. Results indicated significant variations in different traits of both water and growth parameters of the varieties under severe drought stress (50%-60% FC). Among the four mungbean varieties BARI Mung-6 showed superior performance with higher xylem exudation, chlorophyll content, shoot dry matter and lower water uptake capacity at 50%-60% FC (severe drought stress) whereas BU mug 2 showed the lowest performance. Results of this experiment conclude that BARI Mung-6 can be considered as a more water stress tolerant variety than the other three and recommended for cultivation under water limited conditions.

Home gardens can play a significant role in providing better food supply and diversity of food. Studies on niche-based homestead gardening were carried out at FSRD site Atia, Tangail under On-Farm Research Division of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute during 2018-19 and 2019-20 to utilize the homestead resources for producing vegetables and fruits and to enhance nutritional security for the farm families. A total of 12 households were selected from marginal (0.021–0.20 ha), small (0.21–1.0 ha) and medium (1.0- 3.0) farmer groups and seven production niches were intervened for year-round production following the Palima model. Results revealed that homestead area could be capable of harvesting sufficient and diversified vegetables round the year by utilizing all possible homestead nieches. After intervention, the number of vegetables was produced by medium farmers (630 kg/year) followed by small (510 kg/year) and marginal (408 kg/year) farmers. Yearly vegetable requirements of farmers were largely met by homestead garden with a supply between 30-58 kg/head/year compared with bench mark level of 5-12 kg/head/year. Results suggested that farmers consumed lion share of their products that could meet up nutrition. Utilization of farm resources available in the farm that increased nutritional security, income and improved livelihoods as well. The up scaling of the production model based on ecosystem in different poverty-stricken regions of Bangladesh is recommended to attain food security and lessening malnutrition. \u0000Bangladesh J.

Nevertheless, common diets of this country’s people are often deficient in zinc. Thus, application of zinc and boron has significant value in enhancing crop yield as well as zinc and boron content in crop. With this understanding, field experiments were conducted in two consecutive seasons of 2018-19 and 2019-20 at Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI) farm, Gazipur under the agroecological zone 28 (Madhupur Tract). Texturally the soil was sandy clay loam with 6.2 pH, 1.26% organic matter, 0.99 mg kg-1 zinc and 0.13 mg kg-1 boron content. Treatments consisted of a factorial arrangement of three levels of zinc (0, 2, 4 kg ha-1) and three levels of boron (0, 1, 2 kg ha-1) in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Combined application of Zn and B significantly increased the foliage and seed yield as well as their (zinc and boron) contents. On an average, among the treatment combinations, Zn4B1 produced the highest foliage yield (4.55 t ha-1) and Zn2B2 gave the highest seed yield (1.99t ha-1). The highest zinc and boron contents were found in Zn4B2 treatment for both foliage and seeds. Agronomic biofortification of zinc in coriander could be possible without reducing yield through the use of Zn4B1 treatment for foliage purpose and Zn2B2 for seed purpose. \u0000Bangladesh J. Agril.
