Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A field experiment on Potato was conducted to find out the Optimum fertilizer doses for balanced fertilizer for higher yield of potato during rabi season of 2011-2012 of BARI Gazipur, Munshigong & Debigonj. Treatments comprising four levels of N (0, 100, 150 & 200 kg/ha) P (0, 15, 30 & 45 kg/ha), K (0, 90, 140 & 190 kg/ha), (0, 10 & 20 kg/ha), Mg. 150kg/ha, Zn. 3.0kg/ha. B-1.5 kg/ha. The combined effect of NPKS significantly higher yield and yield attributes of potato.

Keywords: Nutrient, Potato, Balanced,Fertilizer

Location: Gazipur, Munshigong & Debigang

Start Date: 27-11-2011

End Date: 27-02-2012

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Potato

Objectives:

i) To observe the response of potato to different nutrients

ii) To update and optimize the fertilizer package for potato matching the sol and agro climatic condition

iii)To maximize yield and quality potato.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted in TCRC, BARI, Gazipur, Munshigong & Debigang during rabi season or 2011-2012. The variety was carinal and randomized complete block design was used with three replications. The unit plot size was 3.0m x 3.0m. The spacing was 60cm x 25cm. giving a population of 12 plants per line. All fertilizers NPKS, Mg ZnB and CD applied as per instruction of FRG. Only N was two split one was basal and another one at the time of earthling up.
