University (HSTU), Dinajpur for her scholastic guidance, constant instructions, keen
supervision, critical suggestions, affectionate feelings and endless inspirations
throughout the period of the research work as well as during the preparation of the
thesis.
The author also express her gratitude and appreciation to her Co-Supervisor Professor
Md. Mizanur Rahman, Department of Soil Science, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science
and Technology University (HSTU), Dinajpur for valuable advice, creative suggestions
and supervision, during the period of the research work and at the time of preparing of
the thesis to improve the write up of the thesis.
The author humbly desires to acknowledge to all teachers of the Department of Soil
Science, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur for
their important suggestions and all round help and co-operation during the period of this
study.
The author is grateful to the laboratory staff and field staff of the Department of Soil
Science, HSTU, Dinajpur for their untiringly field and laboratory works and all kinds of
help and support.

| dc.description.abstract | An experiment was conducted at the Soil Science Research Field of Hajee Mohammad
Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur during the period of December
2016 to April 2017 in order to investigate the effects of sulphur (S) and poultry manure
(PM) on the growth and yield of boro rice (BRRI Dhan29). Six different levels of
sulphur and poultry manure were used as treatment viz. T0 = 0 kg S + 0 t PM ha-1, T1 =9
kgha-1 S + 0 t PM ha-1, T2 = 6.75 kgha-1 S + 1.5 t PM ha-1, T3 = 4.5 kgha-1 S + 3 t PM ha-1
,
T4= 2.25 kgha-1 S + 4.5 t PM ha-1, T5= 0 kgha-1 S + 6 t PM ha-1. The experimental results
revealed that plant height, 1000-seeds weight, unfilled grain, grain yield, straw yield
were significantly influenced by S and PM. The highest plant height (91.67cm) was
observed in T3 treatment and the lowest (83.57cm) was found in the control. The
maximum number of tillers (15.45) was produced in the treatment T3 and minimum
number of tiller (12.20) was found in the treatment T0. The highest number of filled grain
(156.9) was found in the treatment T3 which was statistically identical with other
treatments T0, T1, T2, T4, T5. The lowest number of filled grain (134) was observed in the
control treatment. The maximum unfilled grain (30.48) was obtained in T5 treatment
which was statistically different from other treatments and the minimum (18.88) was in
T3 treatment. The 1000-grain weight (23.40) was highest in T3 treatment and lowest
(21.65) in control treatment. Grain yield and straw yield of rice plants were significantly
influenced with the application of S along with PM. It was found that the application of
4.5 kgha-1 S ha-1 and 4 t PM ha-1 produced the highest grain (9.40 t ha-1) and straw yield
(14.38 t ha-1). The control treatment produced the lowest grain and straw yield. The
findings of the study showed that the performance of the treatment T3 was the best
among other treatments in respects of plant height, number of tiller hill-1, panicle length,
grain yield and straw yield of rice. Therefore, 4.5 kgha-1 S ha-1 and 4 t PM ha-1 may be
suggested for the better growth and yield of rice cultivation. | en_US |
