M. I. A. HOWLADER, M. S. ISLAM, S. RAFIQUZZAMAN, M. M. A. A. CHOWDHURY AND M. M. RASHIDThe experiment was conducted at farmers’ field of Farming System Research and Development (FSRD) site, Lebukhali under Patuakhali district during 1999-2000, 2000-2001 and 2001-2002 to determine the response and to find out the optimum rate of nutrients (NPK) for Mungbean-T.-aus-T.-aman cropping pattern under AEZ-13. Different three levels of NPK with control were assigned in RCB design with 5 dispersed replications. Average of three years study reveals that a considerable response of T. aus and T. aman rice to N, P and K was observed. The response was more evident in T. aus and T. aman rice compared to Mungbean. The results indicated that fertilizer nutrient dose that maximized yield of Mungbean, T. aus and T. aman rice were 12-15-6 kg/ha, 78-24-15 kg/ha and 48-13-13 kg/ha NPK, respectively while 11-10-6 kg/ha NPK was profitable for Mungbean, 70-19-14 kg/ha NPK for T. aus rice and 45-11-13 kg/ha NPK for T. aman rice in respect of yield and economics.
