dc.description | Agriculture is the single most important sector of the economy of
Bangladesh, where many crops like rice, wheat, maize, jute, pulses,
sugarcane, oil seeds, vegetables etc. are grown well. Pulses, out of the crops
constitute the main sources of plant protein, particularly for the poor section
of Bangladesh. These are also the best source of protein for domestic
animal. Pulses have been building and conserving soil fertility since the
beginning of agriculture. They also help to overcome the malnutrition,
which is a serious health problem in Bangladesh that has been threatening to
cripple the whole nation. Unfortunately, there is an acute shortage of grain
legume production in the country. In Bangladesh, daily consumption of
pulses in only 11.00 g per capita (BBS, 2004), while World Health
Organization (WHO) suggested 45 g per capita for a balance diet (BARI,
1998). Approximately, 119,000 mton pulses are imported in Bangladesh in
each year (BBS, 2004). But to provide the above mentioned requirement of
45 g per capita per day, the production is to be increased even more than
three folds. | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was conducted to investigate the root growth and yield
potential of summer mungbean under residual effect of different levels of
lime. Different doses of dolomite (CaCO;.MgCO3) lime were used for
liming materials (T;= 0 kg lime ha”, T= 500 kg lime ha’, T3= 1000 kg lime
ha', Ty= 1500 kg lime ha’', T= 2000 kg lime ha™', T= 2500 kg lime ha’,
T7= 3000 kg lime ha’, Ts= 3500 kg lime ha’'). Mungbean root growth was
slightly increased due to residual effect of lime. Root length and weight
significantly increased under liming condition. The highest number of leaf
number plant’! (22.23) was found in T7 followed by T2, T3, Ty, Ts, Te, and
Ts. The lowest leaf plant’! (18.00) was obtained in T, plant. The highest
plant height (28.23 cm) was recorded in T> followed by T;, Ty, Ts, Ts, Tz and
Ts and the lowest leaf plant’ (21.47 cm) was originated in T; at 35 days
after sowing. The highest plant height (56.10 cm) was recorded in T
followed by Ty, Ts, Ts and T7. Conversely, the lowest plant highest (45.50
cm) was increased in T, similar to that of T3; at 70 days after sowing. The
highest number of pod plant’ (25.33) was found in Ts which was similar to
that of Ts, T7 and Ts. The lowest number of pod plant’! (11.67) was found in
T, plants. Liming effect on the number of seed pod’! was found statistically
significant. The highest number of seed pod’! (12.00) was obtained in Ts
similar to that of Ty, Ts, T7 and Tg plants. The lowest number of pod plant’
(9.00) was recorded in T,. Liming effect on grain yield was highly
significant. The highest grain yield (1365 kg ha’') was found in Ts similar to
that of T; and Ts. The lowest grain yield (1210 kg ha") was observed in T).
Liming effect on dry biomass plot’! was found statistically significant. This
study reveals that lime application at the rate of 2000 kg ha is
recommended for better root growth and higher yield in summer mungbean
in the study area. | en_US |
