dc.descriptionAgriculture 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.abstractA 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
