Abstract
An experiment was conducted at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University farm during the period from February to April 2012 to study the effect of organic and inorganic fertilizers on growth and yield of mungbean (BARI Mung 5). The experiment was followed by Randomized Completely Block Design with three replications. During the experiment following treatments were incorporated T0; Control, T1; 10 tha-1 Cowdung (Recommended dose), T2; 10 tha-1 Cowdung + 25 % of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer, T3; 10 tha-1 Cowdung + 50 % of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer, T4; 10 tha-1 + 75% of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer, T5; 10 tha-1 Vermicompost (Recommended dose), T6; 10 tha-1 Vermicompost + 25% of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer, T7; 10 tha-1 Vermicompost + 50 % of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer, T8; 10 tha-1 Vermicompost + 75 % of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer, T9; 100 % Inorganic fertilizer. Maximum numbers of pods/plant (25.6), seeds/pod (12.1), seeds/plant (312.6), seed yield/plant (14.6 g), 1000-seed weight (35.6 g), seed yield (1127.5 kg/ha), N content in seeds (3.39%), P content in seeds (0.35%) and K content in seeds (2.25%) was found from T8 treatment while lowest was found from T0.
