    DIAGNOSIS AND PRESCRIPTION FOR MANAGEMENT OF BACTERIAL WILT OF POTATO
    (Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh, 2018-07) Islam, M. S.; Khan, R. M. I.; Fatema, K.; Alam, M. Z.; Islam, M. R.
    The experiments were carried out during 2009 to 20]3 on diagnosis and prescriptions for management of bacterial wilt of potato. The studies were undertaken in 250 growers from five locations viz. Mymensingh Sadar. Kushtia Sadar, Kumarkhali, Chandina and Sher-e-Bangia Nagar. The highest and lowest incidence (20.8'*) and (l2.6o/~) of bacterial wilt of potato was recorded at Marichar Char and Kushtia Sadar. Rulstonia solanaceanun produced bacterial wilt of potato disease. The prescription given by Plant Disease Diagnostic Clinic (PDDC) was effective ill the farmcrs field against the disease. From this studv it may be prescripred that the Cupravit-50 WP [Copper-oxchloride (CuOCl,li @ 7 gll sprayed 4 times around root zone at 15 days interval with first time application of 50 gm mixed terti lizer (Ash: KCl=20: I) per plant for the management of bacterial wilt of potato. It was also revealed that the practices reduced the disease incidence by 80.79% over control. The yield increased by 84.57% and benefit cost ratio (BCR) was 4.62.

    STUDIES ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF LOW COST SOLAR TUNNEL DRIER OVER TRADITIONAL SUN DRYING OF PRAWN, Macrobrachium lamarrei IN THE LABORATORY
    (Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Research System (SAURES), Dhaka, Bangladesh, 2009-07) Fatema, K.; Ahmed, A. T. A.; Khaleque, M. A.; Begum, M.
    Laboratory experiment was carried out to compare the effectiveness of the new Low Cost Solar Tunnel Drying (LCSTD) technique with the Traditional Sun Drying (TSD) method of the Prawn, Macrobruchium lumarrci. [loth salted and unsalted Prawn (M. lamarrei) required 4 hours for drying in LCSTD, while in sun drying it required 6 hours, During the experimental period the inside drying temperature and percentage of relative humidity varied from 4:1 to solie and 35 to 50%, respectively, whereas outside drying temperature and percentage of relative humidity varied from 29 to .'8"C and 50 to 78%. respectively. Solar tunnel dried unsalted sample contained on an average of 14.65% moisture, 61.58% protein. :1.4'7" fat and 17.23% ash whereas sun dried unsalted sample contained 20.5')1. moisture, 5~% protein. 3.1'if, fat and 15.5% ash.The rate of drying was greater in the Low Cost Solar Tunnel Drier (LCSTD), which effectively controlled the fly larva infestation during drying. The low cost solar tunnel drier produced superior quality dry prawn under hygienic conditions.
