Effect of Cow Manure on Growth, Yield and Nutrient Content of Mungbean
The experiment was conducted at the farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from March to June 2014 to study the effect of cowdung on the growth, yield and nutrient content of mungbean (Vigna radiata L.). The variety BARI Mung-5 was used as the test crop. The experiment consist of single factor: Cowdung (3 levels); C0: 0 ton cowdung ha-1 (control), C1: 5 ton cowdung ha-1 and C2: 10 ton cowdung ha-1. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with five replications. Data on different growth parameters and yield showed statistically significant variation for different levels of cowdung. The tallest plant, the highest number of leaves plant-1, the highest number of branches plant-1, the minimum number of days required for 1st flowering, the minimum number of days required for 80% pod maturity, the highest number of pods plant-1, the highest number of seeds pod-1, the longest pod, the maximum weight of 1000-seeds, the highest seed yield, the highest stover yield and nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulphur content in seeds were recorded from 10 ton cowdung ha-1, whereas the lowest value was found from control treatment
