| dc.description | Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most extensively cultivated cereals of
the world and feeds 50% of the world's population. Rice is the leading food
for more than two billion people in Asia and for hundreds of millions of
people in Africa and Latin America (IRRI, 2006). Rice is the staple food in
Bangladesh. In Bangladesh rice occupies 10.58 million hectares of land
which is about 77% of the cultivated area (BBS, 2008). Among different
rice growing season, boro (winter) season aks about 43.57% of total rice
area that contribute 61.33% of total rice production (BBS, 2008). According
to the National Agricultural Commission to feed the increased population in
2020, 47 million tons of rice will be needed to produce in the country. For
food security of the country, rice production is needed to be increased from
3 t ha’ to 5 t ha’ in next 20 years (Mahbub et al., 2001). Researcher,
extension personnel and farmers ‘are trying to reach this goal and
tremendous results are also found. The overall adoption of modern rice
varieties in the country has already expanded nearly to 74%, while in the
boro season, the coverage of modern varieties has very impressively reached
about 96% contributing to nearly 57% of the total rice production (BBS,
2008). | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | The research work was conducted at the Agronomy Field, Hajee
Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur, during
Boro season of 2011-12. The experiment was laid out in Randomized
complete block design (RCBD) where the treatments were arranged
randomly in the field. Two factors were considered in the experiment
namely spacing and method of Guti Urea application. Factor-A Spacing
including P; = 20X15 cm, P, = 20X20 cm, P3 = 20X25 cm, and Py =
25 X25 cm Factor-B Guti Urea application including F;= Machine 1.8 g, F,
= Machine 2.7 g, F; = Hand 1.8 g, and F,= Hand 2.7 g. Yield contributing
characters like Plant height, panicle length, fill grain (no. panicle’'), Panicle
(no. m”) are found highest in spacing 20 X 15 cm and Guti Urea application
F, 2.7 g by hand. Unfilled grain became less in this interaction. Yield
contributing Characters did not show any significant variation in respect of
1000-grain weight. Gain yield was the highest (7.08 t/ha) in spacing 20 x 15
cm and Guti Urea application F, 2.7 g by hand incase of interaction. The
highest straw yield (10.27 t/ha) was obtained at plant spacing 20X15 cm
and F, treatment i.e 2.7 g guti urea application by hand. Guti Urea
placement by hand produced more grain yield than GU placement by
machine. Because, hand placement of GU was technically sound rather than
mechanical placement and GU was placed by hand in middle point of 4 hills
in appropriate depth where proper dropping distance of GU didn’t possible
for GU applicator. | en_US |
