| dc.description | Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries of the world having agro based
economy which situated in the North-Eastern part of South Asia with a tropical to subtropical climate. Its economy is mainly agrarian. It is the biggest sector of the economy and
earns about 35-40% of the national income from it. Bangladesh like many developing
countries of the world is faced the problem of low agricultural productivity. Many countries
including Bangladesh are faced with the challenge of producing more food and fiber, while
there is little room for expansion in the cultivated area and yield per unit area of various crops
are very low, because the population of Bangladesh is about 140 million in an area of 147570
sq. Kilometers and growth rate is 1.47% per annum (BBS, 2012) and this excessive
population creates pressure on the cultivated land. Due to rapid growth of population, peoples
are migrating to forest area and are encroaching for cultivation of food crops. We should have
25% of the total forest land area but we have only about 13.36% area covered with forest land
(BBS, 2012). In spite of the fact, that our country is blessed with a galaxy of climate, soil
condition and irrigation water. The country is totally dependent on agriculture for the supply
of food and fiber. Bangladesh has varied agro-ecological regions including high mountainous
valleys and irrigated plains. The environmental factors such as temperature, fertility status,
soil characteristics and rainfall play an important role in the varietal performance (Asif et al.,
2003). | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was carried out at the Agroforestry and Environment research field, Hajee
Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University (HSTU), Dinajpur, during March to
June 2013 to find out the performance of three mungbean varieties under two production
systems viz mungbean in sole cropping and mungbean in mango based agroforestry system.
The experiment was conducted in newly established mango (Amropally) orchard. The
experiment included two recommended modern mungbean varieties viz, BARI Mung-5,
BARI Mung-6 and one mungbean local variety),. The experiment was laid out in
Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with two replications. Significantly the highest
plant height of (24.65 cm) was found in BARI Mung-6 followed by (21.98 cm) BARI Mung5 and the lowest plant height of (15.73 cm) was observed in mungbean local variety at 40
DAS. Significantly the maximum number of leaves plant! 20.93 was recorded in BARI
Mung-5 followed by (17.62) BARI Mung-6 and the minimum number of leaves plant’ was
recorded (12.92) in mungbean local variety at 40 DAS. The longest pod (6.77 cm) was found
in BARI Mung-6. The highest number of pod plant (19.42) was found in BARI Mung-5.
The maximum number of seeds (9.92) was found in BARI Mung-5 followed by (9.92) BARI
Mung-6. The highest yield of 1.29 t ha! was found in BARI Mung-5 followed by 1.20 t ha"
in BARI Mung-6 and the lowest yield of 0.88 tha'was observed in mungbean local variety,
respectively. In case of production system significantly the longest pod length (6.11 cm) was
recorded in mungbean + mango based agroforestry system and the shortest pod length (5.82)
was recorded in sole cropping of mungbean. The mungbean yield tha’ was measured and the
highest yield of 1.18 t ha'was found in sole cropping of mungbean. On the other hand the
lowest yield of 1.06 t ha’ was observed in mungbean + mango based agroforestry system.
Finally the mungbean yield t ha’ was measured and the highest yield of 1.36 t ha was found
in open + BARI Mung-5 treatment combination. On the other hand the lowest yield of 0.82 t
ha! was found in mango + Mungbean local variety treatment combination, respectively. It
can be concluded that BARI Mung-5 with sole cropping as well as BARI Mung-6 performed
better than other varieties, but BARI Mung-5 could be suitable for mango based agroforestry
system. | en_US |
