This study made an attempt to determine the relationship between livelihood capitals and pond fish culture to measure the changes of livelihoods capitals. The study is based on field survey covering six Upazilas in Mymensingh district of Bangladesh. Only 10 pond fish farmers were randomly selected from 21 villages and stood at 210. Six Key Informant Interview (KII), twenty four FGDs and face to face interviews were done to collect primary information. Analytical technique as ordered probit model was followed to make a relationship between livelihood capitals (financial, natural, physical, human, and social) and pond fish culture. Under physical capitals, sources of credit, input availability and marketing facilities were inadequate in the development of pond fish farmers which directly affects pond fish culture. In terms of the social capital, changes in basic needs, contact with other farmers and political consciousness were significant and positive. In terms of human capital, age, working experiences, and child and adult education were significant and positive but households nutrients and food consumption, visit to health care centre, and water and sanitation conditions were negatively impact on pond fish culture. The overall result of the study found that livelihood capitals were significant and positively impact on pond fish culture. It was, therefore necessary to pay attention on physical, human and financial capitals of pond fish farmers through the provision of institutional credit, training facilities, and market establishment.","PeriodicalId":17224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Bangladesh Agricultural University","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70802724","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}

Sagor","doi":"10.5455/jbau.80770","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5455/jbau.80770","url":null,"abstract":"The experiment was conducted to evaluate the performances of fifteen resynthesized Brassica napus L. lines along with one check variety (Binasarisha-4) based on some morphological, yield and yield attributes and also to estimate association among the traits. Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD) with three replications was used for this experimentation. A wide range of variation was observed among the studied morphological traits which have a great interest for the Brassica breeders. Considering the two most important traits like early flowering and early maturity the RS lines RS-7, RS-2, RS-3, RS-5, RS-11, RS-14, and RS-15 performed best among the germplasms compared with check variety Binasharisha-4. All the studied traits except main leaf area showed high heritability. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance in per cent of mean (>20%) was observed for plant height, flag leaf area, siliqua length, beak length, siliqua angle and yield/plant. This result suggested that these characters could be improved more easily through simple selection. Correlation analysis revealed a significant positive correlation of yield/plant with plant height and siliqua length. Days to first flowering and days to maturity were negatively correlated with plant height, siliqua length and beak length whereas a highly significant positive correlation existed between days to first flowering and days to maturity. Principal Component Analysis revealed the utmost suitable combination of the studied attributes and stated that the first four principal components (PC) explained 78.3% of the total data variation. These results provide a scope for selection of RS lines in regard to develop short duration varieties of B. napus with high yield potential.
