Two areas were considered: one in Gazipur Sadar and another one in Narsingdi Sadar. Five ponds of almost similar size (30 decimal with an average water depth of 1.5 m) and water intensity were selected at each location with a stocking density of Gulsha 500 fry/decimal. Pre-stocking, stocking and post-stocking management had been similar in each place. The significantly lower (p<0.05) value of soil pH (5.5±4.1) in Gazipur location caused pond water acidic and imbalanced the water buffering system for maintaining primary productivity. After 120 days of rearing period, the average harvest weight of Gulsha 48.10 ±7.12 g was significantly (p<0.05) higher for Narsingdi compared to the average weight 23.18 ± 6.24 g in Gazipur. The survival rate (p<0.05) 68% at Narsingdi area was the highest. The estimated average production of fish in 120 days in the Gazipur and Narsingdi region was 7.55 ± 5.61 kg/dec and 16.31 ± 6.13 kg/dec, respectively , that differed substantialy (p<0.05) from one another. Ponds of Narsingdi district in general, showed almost all of its physico-chemical and biological features suitable for fish production. However, ponds in the Gazipur area were found less productive for the cultivation of Gulsha particularly with lower primary and secondary productivity.","PeriodicalId":14096,"journal":{"name":"International journal of food, agriculture and environment","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88624151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, a face-to-face interview with 16 buffalo traders (male, age above 25 years) was conducted using simple random sampling. Among the traders, 75% have completed primary education, 12.5% have passed higher secondary certificate (HSC), and the remaining 12.5% were illiterate. Approximately 75% of the traders sold female buffalo as surplus stock, and 56.25% traders indicated that both males and females had an excellent selling demand in the market. Roughly 81.25% of the buffalo traders thinks that they could not meet the consumer demand for buffalo; however, buffalo availability increased in 2021 compared to 2016-2020, as indicated by 87.5% of the buffalo traders. Generally, buffalo pricing was fixed by assuming the live weight only. Over the year, buffen costs at the local market ranged from 478 to 586 BDT per kg, with an average of 523 BDT. About 37.5% of the buffalo traders thought that minimizing buffen price volatility is a key challenge in the studied area, followed by transportation issues (12.5%) during buying or selling live buffalo.

The goal of the study was to figure out how water management and Zn application rates affect the growth and yield of rice. The experiment was carried out in a split-plot design with three replications. The treatments consisted of two factors, a) water management, like 1) Continuous flooding (CF) and 2) Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) system and b) Zn application like 1) Control (0% Zn), 2) 75% Zn, 3) 100% Zn, 4) 125% Zn, and 5) 150% Zn of the recommended dose. All the plots received an equal amount of NPKS fertilizers. The application of Zn in both AWD and CF systems had a significant effect on a number of grains panicle -1 , 1000 grain weight and grain yield. The highest value for both yield contributing traits and yield was obtained by the application of 150% Zn in the AWD system. However, the lowest value was found in the control treatment of the CF system for both the yield components and yield. It is also evident that the growth rate of yield components and yield was increased with increased doses of Zn in both AWD and CF systems.

Remote Sensing techniques are now being used to estimate crop area and production monitoring globally, including developing countries. In Bangladesh, rice area estimation has traditionally been done through location-based field visits or eye-estimation, which is tedious and time-consuming. The present study uses Remote Sensing (RS) and climate parameters to explore the cultivation area and driver of boro area expansion in Tangail Sadar Upazila. Multi-spectral Landsat imageries were obtained from 1999 to 2020 at the maximum growth stages of boro rice. Upazila's boundary was clipped over the images using a shape file created from Bangladesh map. The images were analyzed with QGIS, ArcGIS, and R software through the Random Forest (RF) supervised classification. Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) was calculated using monthly total rainfall; minimum and maximum temperature to observe drought impacts. The findings revealed that the boro rice cultivation gradually increased from 8104 ha (in 1999) to 12781 ha (in 2020). In 2009-20, the expansion rate (3.10 percent) of boro rice areas was much lower (11.49 percent) than in 1999-2009. It was due to relatively stable boro cultivation in the recent decade. The Overall accuracy was 93-96 percent with the kappa coefficient of 0.90-0.93. The study showed that there was a good relationship between satellite and traditionally estimated boro rice area. The expansion of boro rice areas has been driven mainly by the positive impacts of climate change. Long-term hydrological drought and a shorter wet spell have introduced boro rice cultivation to the lowlands and river basin areas. According to the benefit cost ration (BCR), growing mustard and boro rice in the same season was more profitable than growing any sole crop. The study revealed that remote sensing was effective for exploring boro rice cultivation area and driver of expansion.","PeriodicalId":14096,"journal":{"name":"International journal of food, agriculture and environment","volume":"94 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90514876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The two-factor experiment consisted of two varieties viz. Binatomato 10 and BARI Tomato 11, and five organic postharvest treatments viz. control, chitosan coating (0.2%), garlic extract (1:1), hot water (50 ° C for 5 mins) + chitosan coating (0.2%) and hot water (50 ° C for 5 mins) + garlic extract (1:1). The experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design with 3 replications. The maximum weight loss (8.93%) was recorded in BARI Tomato 11 treated with garlic extract, while the minimum (5.93%) was found in Binatomato 10 treated with hot water + chitosan coating. The maximum TSS (8.67%) was recorded from BARI tomato 11 treated with control and the minimum TSS (6.13%) was found in Binatomato 10 treated with hot water + chitosan coating. The highest disease incidence (12.67%) and severity (21.67%), and shortest shelf life were recorded in BARI Tomato 11 fruits treated with control, whereas the lowest disease incidence (3.67%) and severity (3.57%), and longest shelf life (31.00 days) were found in Binatomato 10 fruits treated with hot water + chitosan coating.

BRRI dhan29. The experiment was set up in a split-plot based on a randomized complete block design with 3 replications and 14 treatment combinations. Two irrigation methods such as continuous flooding (CF) and alternate wetting and drying (AWD) were the main factor while nitrogen fertilizers including prilled urea (PU) and urea super granule (USG) were the sub-factor. The treatment T6 (USG at 7 DAT) generated the highest plant height (cm), no. of effective tillers hill -1 , panicle length (cm), no. of grains panicle -1 , grain yield and biological yield during AWD condition. In terms of grain yield, the treatment combinations AWD + T6 and CF + T7 were statistically equal. In comparison to control, all AWD + USG and CF + PU treatment combinations increased straw yield and harvest index. Under both AWD and CF conditions, USG increased more grain and straw yields compared to PU. So, farmers may be advised to apply USG (216 kg ha -1 ) at 7 DAT under AWD conditions in order to improve rice yield and ensure food security.","PeriodicalId":14096,"journal":{"name":"International journal of food, agriculture and environment","volume":"184 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77375697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
