EFFECT OF PHOSPHORUS AND SULPHUR ON THE GROWTH AND YIELD OF BRRI dhan56

Abstract

An experiment was conducted at the Research Field of the Department of Agronomy, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, during the period from July, 2013 to December, 2013 to study the performance of BRRI dhan56 regarding to growth, yield and yield contributing characters under the AEZ-28. The two factors experiment consists with four levels of phosphorus 0 : without phosphorus , P 2 : 40 kg ha –1 and P 3 : 60 kg ha –1 and four levels of sulphur viz. S : without sulphur

1 : 10 kg ha –1 , S 2 : 20 kg ha –1 and S 3 : 30 kg ha –1 0 . The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design –1 – 1
