INFLUENCE OF NITROGEN AND SULPHUR ON THE YIELD OF T. AMAN RICE

Abstract

The experiment was conducted during the period from July to December, 2013 in T. Aman season in the experimental area Agronomy farm field of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, Dhaka AEZ No. 28 0 : 0 kg N ha -1 i.e. control, N 1 : 80 kg N ha : 100 kg N ha -1 and N 3 : 120 kg N ha -1 and Factors B: Levels of sulphur : 0 kg S ha -1

1 : 8 kg S ha -1 and S 2 : 12 kg S ha -1 . The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design , again the shortest plant 0 2 . The highest grain yield
