Study on boron fertilizer available in markets of Monirampur upazila, Jashore, Bangladesh
Abstract
A study was conducted in Monirampur upazila under Jashore district from July to December 2017 to collect information on comparative availability of different boron fertilizers in order to aid the assessment of nutrient status for quality. For this purpose, information was collected from 54 randomly selected fertilizer shops (20 BCIC fertilizer dealers and 34 retailers) through questionnaire interview. Total 37 nature (19 Solubor, 16 Boric acid and 2 Fertibor) of boron fertilizer marketed by 33 companies were found in the upazila. A few marketed boron was found higher in the shop, availability is not adequate. Five percent of Solubor and six percent of Boric acid mentioned no registration number. Twenty six percent solubor brands were in both 100 gram and 500 gram packet where same registration number was used for both sized packed of an individual sample studied. There was a significant difference between highest and lowest MRP of imported Solubor for both 100 and 500 gram packet as well as supplied and imported type of Boric acid.

Genetic Analysis of Salinity Tolerance in a Rice Backcross Population at Seedling Stage
Abstract
Rice breeding of salinity tolerance based on a combination of phenotyping, genotyping and analyzing of genetic relationship was aiming to create the next generation with stable tolerance. In this study, 99 rice lines of the OMCS2000*4/Pokkali population in BC3F2 generation were screened in saline environments of 0, 6 and 12 dS m-1 at seedling stage. The tolerant lines were continuously tested the Saltol gene with 2 tightly markers, RM3412 and RM8094. The population was employed for the assessment of correlation, genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance for the related traits. Through phenotyping and genotyping, the population was tolerant to 6 dS m-1 for 4 weeks and 12 dS m-1 for 2 weeks, in which, 21/99 rice lines was highly tolerant and carried the Saltol gene. In this population, SES score and fresh biomass were the most significant traits and could explain over 70% of variability. SES scores were negatively correlated to almost all other traits, strongly to biomass, moderately to plant height, and lowly to root length. Analysis of variance revealed that sufficient genetic variation has been created for all traits. Relative magnitude of phenotypic coefficients of variation was higher than genotypic coefficients of variation for all the characters under study indicating environmental influence on the traits. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance was almost traits, exception of dry biomass. These indicated that direct selection can be effective for salinity tolerance improvement in the population under study.

Oil palm smallholders and certification: exploring the knowledge level of independent oil palm smallholders to certification
Abstract
Oil palm is the world leading vegetable oil. It is an important player in the economic development of the country, both as a contributor to gross national product (GDP), foreign earnings and job creation. With high yields per hectare, cheap to produce and its application to food and non-food industries makes it an important product both locally and internationally. The demand for palm oil has lead to expansion of oil palm plantation around the world over the past several decades, with Indonesia and Malaysia accounting for more than 85 percent of the global palm oil market. Smallholders are important players in the world oil palm industry as they contribute about 40 percent of the planted areas in the two most important oil palm countries. Current study investigated the knowledge level of certification amongst the independent smallholders in Malaysia. The study revealed that most of the independent smallholders do not have certification, with a reasonable number of them having little or no knowledge of certification bodies (RSPO/MSPO). The study revealed that though policies are in place to support smallholders to participate in certification for them to reap the enormous benefits; including wider market access, quality fresh bunches and technical skills, more should be done in terms of implementation in reaching out to the smallholders especially through sensitization programs, including, workshops and extension services to properly educate smallholders on the benefits of certification since they are important player in the global palm oil market.

Evaluation of soil fertility status for available sulphur in various location of Myorpur block, district Sonbhadra, Uttar Pradesh, India
Abstract
Available sulphur status in soils of Myorpur block, district Shonbhadra, Utter Pradesh, India was studied to evaluate soil fertility. For this purpose, thirty soil samples (0-15 cm depth) were randomly collected from 30 different GPS locations. All the collected soil samples were analyzed for pH, Electrical Conductivity, Organic Carbon, available sulphur as per standard procedures. The available S content in soils of shonbhadra district varied from 11.60-33.30 kgha-1 with a mean value 21.39 kgha-1. Results reveal that the 90 percent of the soil samples were found under low category (< 22.4 kgha-1) as per nutrients index value. Nutrient Index Value (NIV) of Shonbhadra district was below 1.67 due to acidic soil reaction and low content of organic matter in soil and also due to continuous removal of sulphur by the crops for intense cultivation without using sulphur fertilization. For this reason, enrichment and or modification of soil acidity and organic matter content at desired level, as well as frequent application of sulphur fertilizer during crop growing seasons is essential for reducing or changing sulphur deficiency or status for agricultural crops. Soils would highly need sulphur management through addition of inorganic sulphur, organic manures or sulphonated compost and biocomposts or gypsum, sulphur - solubilizing microbes.

Financial profitability of green chilli production: a case study in Bogra district of Bangladesh
Abstract
The study aims to assess financial profitability of green chilli. Fifty producers of green chilli from three upazila of Bogra district were selected for study purpose. A structured questionnaire was constructed for data collection. The results are as descriptive statistics and interpreted based on farmer feedbacks. Findings include that total cost (TC) for green Chilli is Tk. 128011.13; gross return (GR) of Green Chilli is Tk. 240864; gross margin (GM) for green Chilli is Tk. 137698. All the calculations are based on per hectare. Thus, producing green Chilli net return (NR) is Tk. 112852.87. The green chilli is attractive for farmers to produce as its benefit cost ratio (BCR) shows 1.88 in our study. Lack of agricultural credit, lack of farmer’s association and lack of crop insurance were the major problems for green chilli cultivation. Farmers expect to avail sufficient credit facilities along with regular government extension services, strong market monitoring authority and better transportation facilities for assisting Chilli cultivation. Moreover, a farmers’ association is needed to be formed in chilli production area.

Morpho-physiological characters and shoot reserve remobilization of rice under different planting dates
Abstract
The actual planting date gives the best morpho-physiological characters and highest shoot reserve translocation which finally increased the rice yield. The experiment comprised of two factors- factor a: Planting time (2): T1: 24 January planting; T2: 23 February planting and factor b: Rice variety (5): V1: BRRI dhan29; V2: BRRI hybrid 2; V3: Hera 2; V4: Tia and V5: Taj 1. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Among the different planting time and varieties, 24 January planting and Hera 2 were found superior in terms of morpho-physiological characters and shoot reserve remobilization of rice cultivars. Irrespective of planting times, the highest plant height (112.03 cm), tillers hill-1 (16.43), SPAD value of leaves (35.82), and leaf area index (5.74) were achieved. Hera 2 provided the highest shoot reserve translocation (17.83% and 15.84%) at 24 January planting and 23 February planting, respectively compared to other rice varieties. Finally, 24 January transplanting with Hera 2 exhibited the superior combinations than other parameters.

Impact of biochemical changes on the development of powdery mildew of pea
Abstract
Powdery mildew of pea is an air-borne disease of global dispersal. Erysiphe pisi, which is responsible for powdery mildew of pea is the major threat for pea production in Pakistan and in the world. Although other fungal pathogens such as Erysiphe baeumleri and Erysiphe trifolii have also been reported by initiating this disease on pea and involved in 25–50% yield drop. In the current study 6 varieties of pea from which 3 resistant (Peas 2009, No. 267, F-16) and 3 susceptible (PF-450, Climax and Mateor) were cultivated in research area of the Department of Plant Pathology, University of Agriculture Faisalabad to analyze the biochemical deviations in pea leaves after the induction of powdery mildew disease. The results indicated that among six chemical elements (P, K, Ca, Mg, Zn and Fe) potassium, calcium and zinc contents were higher (1.34 ppm, 2.14 ppm, 1.25 ppm respectively) in diseased leaves while phosphorus, iron and magnesium contents were decreased (0.72 ppm, 7.40 ppm and 0.35 ppm respectively) in diseased leaves as compared to the healthy leaves in both the reaction groups (resistant, susceptible).

Seasonal fluctuation and the management tactics of guava whitefly, Aleurodicus dispersus
Abstract
An Aleurodicus dispersus has become one of the most serious pests of guava in Bangladesh. The study on seasonal abundance in different months indicated that the maximum whitefly population occurred during March 2016 to November 2017. Comparison the effectiveness of application of water, detergent and smoke, it was found that spraying of detergent on the twigs reduced the number of whiteflies significantly. Study of chemical control on whitefly to reduce the population at different stages revealed that Diazinon at the dose of 0.18% reduced the whitefly population (> 90%) significantly after 3, 7, 15 and 30 days of spraying which is similar with the dose of 0.18%. a.i. of Malathion 57EC which caused a good reduction of whitefly adults and nymphs for several days of time interval. Both insecticides were effective and persistent when applied at higher dose to A. dispersus. Therefore, among the treatments the spray at 0.18% concentration of Malathion and Diazinon was the best in controlling the whitefly.

Physical and microbiological qualities of smoked Oreochromis niloticus sold at Jega, Nigeria
Abstract
To address public health implication of consumption of smoked fish, a study was conducted to determine the physical and microbiological quality of smoked Oreochromis niloticus sold in Jega Central market, Kebbi State Nigeria, between June and September 2016. A total of 108 samples of the smoked fish from three retail outlets in the market - Location A (main entrance), B (center of the market) and C (motor park)) within the metropolis were analyzed for their physical and microbiological qualities using the standard cultural method on general and selective media. Results revealed that Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumonia were present in the samples collected from the three different locations. The mean counts of the bacteria isolates found in the smoked fish samples in the three locations were A 1.5 x 106cfu/g, B 1.95 x 106cfu/g and C 2.45 x 106cfu/g. There was no significant difference (P>0.05) between locations on moisture contents of the collected samples but there was significant difference (P<0.05) among the locations in pH for the fish samples. Out of the 108 samples analyzed, 27 (25%) were positive for S. aureus while other species isolated were Klebsiella pneumonia12 (11%). The remaining 69 (64%) of the samples were negative for E. coli. The study shows that E. coli and other bacteria species are common contaminant of smoked fish in Jega Central market, and this may pose serious public health implications in the community.

Evaluation of some exotic potato germplasm in northern region of Bangladesh
Abstract
An experiment was conducted at Breeder Seed Production Centre, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Debigonj, Panchagoarh during rabi (winter) season of 2010-11 to test comparative potentiality of four exotic variety for releasing as a variety in the country. The tested materials were Redfantasy, Bellini, Redbaron and Omega along with two checks of popular varieties Diamant, and Cardinal. All the genotypes under the study expressed excellent plant vigor showing above seven (at 1-10 rating scale) except Redbaron. The highest number of stem/hill was counted at Cardinal (7.93) which was statistically similar to Diamant, and lowest was counted at Redbaron (4.20). The highest number of tuber/hill was counted at Diamant (15.23) which was statistically significant and lowest was found in Red fantasy (8.96). The highest yield was harvested at Redfantasy (43.08 t/ha) which was statistically similar to all other varieties except Omega (38.43 t/ha). Regarding yield at 90 DAP the varieties may be arranged in order to descending as; Redfantasy (43.08 t/ha), Bellini (41.17 t/ha), Cardinal (40.46 t/ha), Redbaron (40.18 t/ha), Diamant (39.81 t/ha) and Omega (38.43 t/ha). When tubers were graded and expressed in percentage, all the varieties produced maximum seed tubers both by number and weight within grade of 28-55 mm. based on overall performances, Redfantasy performed better as compared to check variety Diamant and Cardinal.
