Title: Performance of BARI released lentil varieties in charland ecosystem under Kurigram district
Abstract: The on-farm trial of BARI released lentil varieties was conducted at the MLT site, Ulipur, Kurigram during Rabi season of 2013-14 and 2014-15 in the Lentil-Sesame-Fallow cropping pattern in the Charland. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with six dispersed replications. Four variety viz., BARI Masur-4, BARI Masur-5, BARI Masur-6 and BARI Masur-7 with local cultivar were compared for this purpose. Among the tested varieties, BARI Masur-7 gave the highest yield in both year (1.43 and 1.40 t/ha) which differed significantly from other varieties and the lowest yield was recorded from local (0.860 and 0.834 t/ha). The highest gross return (Tk. 114240 and 112000 ha-1) and gross margin (Tk. 81940 and 77160 ha-1) were obtained from BARI Masur-7 in two consecutive Rabi season. The lowest gross return (Tk. 68800 and 66720 ha-1) and gross margin (Tk. 36500 and 31880 ha-1) were obtained from the local cultivar. The lentil production was profitable to the farmers in the study areas with BARI released lentil varieties.
