Abstract
The experiment was conducted in the Horticultural Farm of Sher-e-Bangla
Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh. The experiment consisted of two factors.
Factor A: different varieties as V
1
= BARI French bean-1, V
= BARI French bean-2,
V
3
= BARI French bean-3 and Factor B: different level of nutrients as N
II
2
= cowdung
(5t/ha) + vermicompost (2t/ha), N

= cowdung(5t/ha) + N

kg/ha. The experiment was laid
out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. In case of
different varieties of French bean the maximum number of flower (27.83), the highest
number of pod harvested per plant (22.14) and the highest yield (15.95 t/ha) were
found from V
2
treatment, whereas the lowest from V
45
treatment. For different level of
nutrients the highest number of flower (25.58), the maximum number of pod per plant
(22.60) and the highest yield (14.10 t/ha) were recorded from N
3
treatment, while the
minimum were from N
1
2
treatment. Due to combined effect, the maximum number of
flower (32.02), the maximum number of pod harvested per plant (26.50), the highest
yield (18.92 t/ha) were observed from V
2
N
treatment combination, while the lowest
were from V

treatment combination. So, the V
2
2
N
treatment combination appeared
to be the best for achieving the higher growth and yield of French bean.
