Response of nitrogen on yield and seed quality of Boro rice
Nitrogen (N), the most limiting nutrient in Bangladesh, for rice has been studied most rigorously, but its contribution to rice seed production remained relatively unexplored. An experiment was conducted during season (November-April) in 2009-10 at the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute experimental farm, Gazipur, Bangladesh, to evaluate the effect ...

A study on chemical weed management in boro rice: A review
Characteristically boro rice is winter season, photo-insensitive, transplanted rice cultivated on supplemental irrigation, often under conditions, where farmers’ are not able to take any other rabi season crop. Butachlor, pretilachlor, bispyribac-sodium and anilofos are the most commonly used herbicides for control of weeds in boro rice.

ABSTRACT Declining natural resources, rising production costs, and diminishing returns from input‐intensive practices threaten the sustainability of smallholder rice systems in Bangladesh. Using a primal system approach and survey data from 1869 rice‐producing households, this study evaluates technical and allocative inefficiency across major agro ...

Effect of weeding regime on the performance of boro rice cultivars
An experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh from December 2016 to May 2017 to investigate the effect of weeding regime on the performance of boro rice cultivars. The experiment comprised of two factors, Factor A- Rice cultivars: BRRI dhan28, BRRI dhan29, and BRRI dhan74, Factor B ...

ABSTRACT Landscape fragmentation may influence the spatial distribution and temporal variation of non‐point source (NPS) pollution by altering hydrological processes, pollutant transport pathways, and ecosystem service functions. However, under the combined effects of natural factors (e.g., precipitation, topography) and anthropogenic factors (e.g ...

Abstract Macrophytes are foundation species whose use as nature‐based solution (NbS) in aquatic ecosystems can help reduce climate change impacts while mitigating biodiversity loss. The discrepancy in research and application of macrophytes as NbS across inland and marine coastal ecosystems is an opportunity to expand the concept and learn from ...
