    GROWTH AND YIELD OF MUNGBEAN AS AFFECTED BY MANAGEMENT PACKAGES
    (DEPARTMENT OF AGRONOMY, 2017) BISWAS, ANANYA
    A field experiment was conducted to study the growth and yield of two mungbean varieties under different agronomic management packages at the central experimental farm, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka-1207, Bangladesh during March to June, 2017. Treatments consisted of three varieties: V = BARI Mung-6, V 2 = BU mug 4, V 3 =Binamoog-8; and three levels of management i.e. M = Low management (Fertilizer 0-0-0 NPK kg ha ii -1 + 40 kg seeds ha -1 in broadcasting + no pesticide application + no weeding), M = Medium management (Fertilizer 20-1020 NPK kg ha -1 + 24 kg seeds ha -1 2 in line sowing (30 cm X Continuous) + pesticide application + one hand weeding), M = High management (Fertilizer 40-20-40 NPK kg ha -1 + 24 kg seeds ha -1 3 in line sowing + pesticide application + two hand weedings). Results revealed that vegetative growth and yield of mungbean was significantly influenced by different varieties and management practices where V and M gave the highest seed yield respectively. The highest seed yield 1190.10 kg ha -1 3 was obtained from the interaction treatment V 3 M due to the highest number of pods plant -1 , pod weight plant -1 3 , and 1000- seed weight. Medium fertilizer and one hand weeding of M reduced 28.87% yield whereas no fertilizer application, no pesticide, no weeding and broadcasting sowing of M 2 1 1 reduced 87.34% yield. Therefore, it can be concluded that the application of higher management practices (high management= Fertilizer 40-20-40 NPK kg ha -1 + 24 kg seeds ha in line sowing + pesticide application + two hand weedings) had a positive impact on different mungbean varieties.
