    EFFECT OF SOIL MOISTURE AND PLANTING METHOD ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF MUNGBEAN
    (DEPARTMENT OF AGRONOMY, 2015-06) UDDIN, MD. NIZAM
    The experiment was conducted during the period from March 20, 2014 to June 20, 2014 at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Farm to find out the growth and yield of mungbean (BARI Mung-6) as affected by soil moisture regimes [i) Sm 1 -No watering ii) Sm 2 -1/2 of field capacity iii) Sm -Field capacity] and planting methods [i) Pm 1 3 - Sowing in furrow without watering ii) Pm -Dibbling (30cm×7cm) iii) Pm 3 -Broadcasting iv) Pm - Sowing in furrow with watering at the bottom of furrow]. The design of the experiment was split-plot design where soil moisture given in the main plot and planting method in the sub plot with three replications. The highest values of all growth and reproductive parameters were obtained with Sm 3 4 while the lowest with Sm . Similarly the highest values were obtained with Pm 4 while the lowest with Pm 1 .The highest values of germination (84.42%), plant height (62.89 cm at 45 DAS), number of branches plant -1 (2.83 at 45 DAS), number of leaves plant -1 (8.13 at 45 DAS), leaf area plant -1 (1093 cm 2 at 45 DAS), number of nodules plant (22.54 at 45 DAS), Shoot dry weight plant -1 (14.40 g at 45 DAS), 1000-seed weight (57.20 g), number of pods plant -1 (22.27), number of seeds pod -1 (12.13), yield (1.626 t ha -1 ) and harvest index (42.30%) were obtained with Sm 3 Pm 4 . 3 -1 2
