Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Performance of newly released variety of Tossa jute (O-72) was tested by comparing with the established variety O-9897 at Manikganj, Chandina, Monirampur and Rangpur. It revealed from the results that the variety O-72 was able to maintain better yield than variety O-9897 in most of the study areas with a positive gross margin achievement over O-9897. The performance of O-72 is better than the cultivar O-9897 over a wide range of environment within the country and farmers were also expressed satisfaction with the cultivar (O-72).
