EFFECT OF PLANT SPACINGS ON THE YIELD AND YIELD ATTRIBUTES OF GROUNDNUT (Pages : 41 - 44)

The study was conducted at the farmers’ field of farming System Research and Development Site, Razakhali, Patuakhali district under Ganges Tidal Floodplain Zone (AEZ-13) during late rabi in 2005-2006 to find out suitable plant spacing for two groundnut varieties, viz., Dhaka-1, an erect Spanish type and DG-2, a semi- spreading Virginia type. The experiment was laid out in a split plot design with six dispersed replications. The result of the experiment revealed that erect type groundnut variety, like Dhaka-1 required closer spacing (30 cm × 10 cm) to express its maximum yield potentiality, on the other hand spreading or semi-spreading type groundnut variety required wider plant spacing (40 cm × 20 cm) to express its maximum yield potentiality.
