CROPPING PATTERN BASED FERTILIZER RECOMMENDATION FOR MUSTARD -BORO-T. AMAN RICE CROPPING PATTERN UNDER AEZ-25 AT NANDIGRAM, BOGRA (Pages : 31 - 34)

An experiment was conducted at Nandigram Multilocation Testing (MLT) Site, Bogra (AEZ-25.) during 2003- 04, 2004-2005 and 2005-06 to determine the optimum fertilizer dose for Mustard –Boro-T.aman rice cropping pattern which enhancing total production and profit. Six different doses of fertilizer were estimated from soil test value, BARC Fertilizer Recommendation Guide’ 97 and Farmers practice. From the average of three years results it was found that the highest grain yield and gross margin were obtained from (T2) soil test base (STB) fertilizer dose for high yield goal (HYG) in all crops and it was followed by IPNS (T3). The lowest grain yield and gross margin from T6 (Absolute control) in all crops. On the basis of yield and economic return, the soil test base fertilizer dose may be recommended for Mustard –Boro T. aman rice cropping pattern in the Level Barind Tract soil (AEZ-25) at Nandigram, Bogra. The application of organic manure (4-5 t/ha) once in a year could be suggested for sustaining soil fertility. Download
