DEPARTMENT OF HORTICULTUREA field experiment was conducted at Horticulture farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural
University, Dhaka, during the Rabi season of October, 2020 to March, 2021 to study
the effects of different level of sulphur and boron on the yield and yield components
of Kasuri methi (Trigonella corniculata) seed. The experiment consisted of two
factors: Factor A: Four Levels of sulphur (S); T

. The experiment was laid out in
randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three (3) replications with total 16
no. of treatments. Data on different growth, yield contributing and yield parameter
of kasuri methi were recorded and significant variation was observed from different
treatments. In case of sulphur application, maximum plant height (48.17 cm),
maximum number of primary branches plant

(9.51), secondary branches per plant
(4.46), maximum number of seeds per pod (7.87), maximum number of pod per plant
(1066.70), maximum weight of seeds per plant (2.33 g), maximum weight of seed per
plot (69.84 g), maximum seed yield per hectare (582.03 kg), highest rate of
germination (92%), were obtained from T

application, maximum plant height (48.30 cm), maximum no. of primary branches per
plant (9.46), secondary branches per plant (4.50), maximum number of seeds per pod
(7.93), maximum number of pod per plant (1074.70), maximum weight of seeds per
plant (2.34 g), maximum weight of seed per plot (70.15 g), maximum seed yield per

treatment showed better
performance over other treatment combination. Maximum plant height (50.08 cm),
maximum number of primary branches per plant (10.41), secondary branches per plant

(1192.30), maximum weight of seeds per plant (2.50 g), maximum weight of seed per

treatment combination. It may be concluded
that application of 20 kg S ha

HORTICULTUREThe study was conducted in the horticulture Ilirni of Sher-e-I3angla Agricultural
University. Dhaka. Bangladesh during the period from March to June 2007 to find out
the eflèet of sowing time and fertilizer management on the growth and yield of
Giniakalmi. The experiment consist of two flictors. Factor A: sowing time, such as 5,:
16 March. S2
: 31 March and S;: 15 April; Factor R: Four levels of fertilizer. such as
F0: No fertilizer. F

: Poultry litter: 7 t/ha and F
1: Inorganic
fertilizer (urea: 200 kg/ha + TSP: 100 kg/ha+ MP: 100 kg/ha). There were 12(3 < 4)
treatment combinations. In case of sowing time the highest yield was obtained from
52. In case of krtilizcr management the highest yield was recorded from (F
3 ). In case
of combined effect of various level of sowing time and fertilizer management were
also found significant. The highest yield was obtained from the treatment combination
of3l march sowing time with inorganic iërtilizer
