The present study attempted to estimate the profitability, domestic resource cost (DRC) and problems and prospects of onion production in the study areas. Both primary and secondary data were used in this study. Sample survey was carried out in two selected areas under Kushtia and Jhenaidah districts. A total of 110 onion producers were selected randomly of which 70 producers were from Kushtia and the remaining 40 producers were from Jhenaidah. The study showed that, on an average, total costs of onion production per hectare were about Tk. 150,097 and 116,831 in Kushtia and Jhenaidah district, respectively. The benefit cost ratios (BCR) of onion production were 2.02 and 1.83 in Kushtia and Jhenaidah district, respectively. The results of profitability and BCR show that onion is a profitable crop in Bangladesh. The domestic resource costs (DRC) were 0.47 in Kushtia and 0.52 in Jhenaidah, which indicate that Bangladesh has comparative advantage in onion production. The coefficients of the production function show that farm area, irrigation, pesticides, seeds, chemical fertilizers (TSP) and labor were statistically significant affecting factors of onion production and it shows constant returns to scale. The onion producers faced some production, technological and marketing related problems in the study areas. The government should therefore, take necessary policies for further development of onion production in Bangladesh.The Agriculturists 2017; 15(2) 66-78

The study was undertaken to assess the extent of the area used for tobacco cultivation and to determine some selected characteristics of tobacco farmers that significantly influence farmers’ cultivation of tobacco. The selected characteristics were- age, education, farm size, annual income, tobacco cultivation experience, family labor, time spent in tobacco cultivation, profitability, agent contact, input availability, level of pest infestation and market security perception. The study was conducted at three villages of Mirpur upazilla under Kushtia district with the help of an interview schedule from September 12 to October 3, 2018. Twenty-five percent (25%) of the farmers were randomly selected from a population of 424 tobacco farmers. Out of the total population, 106 tobacco farmers were selected as the sample of the study. Multiple linear regressions were used in order to identify the important factors for tobacco cultivation. The findings also revealed that age, education, annual income, family labor and agent contact have a significant positive contribution to tobacco cultivation. Therefore, to reduce tobacco cultivation area coverage by the farmers, the policy should be made by giving emphasize on the significant factors.

Land Surface Temperature (LST) is a key phenomenon in worldwide climate change. The knowledge of surface temperature is important to a range of issues and themes in earth sciences, central to urban climatology, global environmental change, and human-environment interactions. In this study, LST for Kushtia District, Khulna division, Bangladesh, is derived using Arc-GIS software version from the images of Landsat 8 Optical Land Imager (OLI) of 30 m resolution and Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIR) data of 100 m resolution, Landsat-7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) with opto-mechanical sensor and Spatial Resolution of 30 m (60 m – thermal, 15-m panchromatic) and Landsat-5 Thematic MAPPER (TM) satellites. A total time span of 20 years, starting from 1998 to 2018 is selected. At every 5 years interval starting from 1998, air temperature, LST, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) have been calculated. Using the equation from Landsat user’s handbook, the digital number of thermal infrared band is converted into spectral radiance. Plank’s Inverse Function is used to obtain the effective at-sensor brightness temperature from the spectral radiance. The surface emissivity based on NDVI classes is used to retrieve the final LST. The study reveals that LST is increasing with the passage of time. Maximum values of LST are found along the North-East and North-West regions of Kushtia district. NDVI is found to have positive correlation with LST. Also, it has been found that NDWI has little influence on LST. The reasons behind the rise and fall of LST in different years are explained from changes in total vegetation coverage and total abundance of water body coverage viewpoint. The spatial distribution figures of air temperature, LST, NDVI and NDWI could be used as a guideline for urban planning, strategies for quality improvement of urban environment and a smart solution to the reduction of LST.

Introduction: Biochemical analysis or laboratory tests assist to determine what happening to the body internally. The aim of the present study was to access the biochemical features of type 2 diabetic patients in Kushtia district, Bangladesh. Materials and Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients who presented to the OPD in three referral diabetic centers in Kushtia district, Bangladesh from August 2016 to July 2017. A total of 282 patients were included in the study. The collected data were checked, entered and analyzed using the computer program Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22. Results: Biochemical study showed that mean blood hemoglobin level was 12.49±1.47g/dl, mean fasting blood glucose level of the patients was 8.86±1.67mmol/L and blood glucose level two hours after breakfast was 13.94±2.88mmol/L. The study showed that the patient having abnormal level of triglyceride (66%) were higher than normal level (34%). Conclusion: The subjects had higher triglyceride and LDL values (65.6% and 28.7% respectively). These higher percentages with abnormal lipid profile are likely to be more prone to cardiovascular diseases. Medicine Today 2021 Vol.33(1): 71-74

A field experiment was conducted at farmers field of Kushtia Sadar upazila under Kushtia district during the period from November 2009 to January 2012 to find out suitable mustard varieties for intercropping with sugarcane. Five rapeseed/mustard varieties viz., Improved Tori -7, BARI Sarisha-9, BARI Sarisha-11, BARI Sarisha-14 and BARI Sarisha-15 were intercropped with sugarcane. Results showed that different intercropping combinations significantly influenced yield and yield components of mustard. The mustard variety BARI Sarisha-11 produced the highest seed yield (2199 kg/ha). Mustard varieties in intercropped situation depressed cane yields by 2.79-9.96% compared to sole cane yield. The highest cane equivalent yield (111.28 t/ha) was recorded in sugarcane + mustard var. BARI Sarisha-11 combination. The highest gross return (Tk. 633098/ha), gross margin (Tk. 518078/ha) and benefit cost ratio (5.50) were also obtained from the same combination which was followed by sugarcane + mustard var. BARI Sarisha-14 combination. The results revealed that BARI Sarisha-11 or BARI Sarisha-14 might be grown with sugarcane as intercrop in Kushtia area for getting maximum profit. Bangladesh J. Agril.

Thorough understanding and a reliable database on existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity of a particular area are needed for guiding policy makers, researchers, extensionists and development workers for the planning of future research and development. During 2016 a study was accomplished over all 34 upazilas of Jessore region using pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire with a view to document the existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity in the region. The most dominant cropping pattern Boro−Fallow−T. Aman occupied 32.28% of net cropped area (NCA) of the region with its distribution in all upazilas. The second largest area, 5.29% of NCA, was covered by single Boro, which was spread over 24 upazilas. A total of 176 cropping patterns were identified in the whole region under the current investigation. The highest number of cropping patterns was identified 58 in Kushtia sadar upazila and the lowest was 11 in Damurhuda upazila of Chuadanga district. The lowest crop diversity index (CDI) was reported 0.852 in Narail sadar upazila followed by 0.863 in Jessore sadar upazila. The highest value of CDI was observed 0.981 in Daulatpur followed by 0.978 in Bheramara upazila of Kushtia district. The range of cropping intensity values was recorded 175−286%. The maximum value was for Sreepur of Magura district and minimum for Abhaynagar of Jessore district. As a whole the CDI of Jessore region was calculated 0.955 and the average cropping intensity at regional level was 229%.Bangladesh Rice j. 2017, 21(2): 185-202

This study evaluated the profitability dynamics of blast affected Boro rice cultivation within specific regions of Kushtia District of Bangladesh during the period of 2018-19. A total of 90 farmers, with 30 from each upazila, were selected randomly for participation in this study. The findings revealed substantial yield losses, with the most significant impact observed among11% farmers affected by a disease severity scale of 9 in BRRI dhan28, resulting in a yield loss of 3.92 t/ha. Similarly, a blast severity scale of 9 led to yield losses of 2.0 t/ha in BRRI dhan29, affecting 7% of farmers. The Miniket cultivar exhibited a yield loss of 1.70 t/ha among 56% of farmers with a severity scale of 5. Interestingly, Mirpur experienced devastating losses for both BRRI dhan28 and BRRI dhan29, while Kushtia Sadar suffered significant yield losses for the Miniket cultivar based on disease severity and yield impact. Application of Nativo 75 WG (0.40 Kg/ha) and Trooper 75 WP (0.50 Kg/ha) at the lowest (3%) disease incidence resulted in a remarkable 68.97% increase in yield for BRRI dhan29 in Bheramara. Conversely, spraying of Amistar Top 325 SC (0.56 l/ha) did not lead to increase yield. In Miniket cultivar at Bheramara, Nativo 75 WG (0.45 Kg/ha) and Amistar Top 325 SC (0.37 l/ha) resulted in a lower yield of 2.99 t/ha due to application at a higher (50%) disease incidence. Furthermore, a yield increase of 69.67% was observed with the application of Nativo 75 WG (0.34 kg/ha) in the Miniket cultivar at Kushtia Sadar. The highest gross return, gross margin, net return, and benefit-cost ratio were recorded in Bheramara, amounting to Tk 1,24,084/ha, Tk 46,037/ha, Tk 5,797/ha, and 1.05, respectively. Notably, BRRI dhan29 exhibited the maximum gross return and yield of Tk 1,32,435/ha and 6.14 t/ha, respectively, whereas BRRI dhan28 demonstrated the lowest gross return and net return of Tk 1,09,737/ha and (-) Tk 8,321/ha, respectively, due to higher blast disease incidence. Labor costs constituted the largest share (34.10%) of the total rice production expenses. Despite BRRI dhan28 exhibiting lower net and gross returns per hectare due to higher blast disease incidence, the highest yields in BRRI dhan29 were attributed to its comparatively lower disease infection rate among the three varieties. Evidently, the cultivation of the Miniket cultivar resulted in higher net returns due to its superior market price and quality, especially when disease incidence was lower compared to BRRI dhan28. This emphasizes the importance of blast management strategies and the use of resistant varieties with high yield potential and market value in ensuring sustainable productivity and profitability in Boro rice production.

Identifying the development of traditional Baul inclinations and their underlying reasons was the aim of this investigation. The major goal of this study was to determine how historic trends in Baul had changed. Baul’s trends refer to a particular cult that originates from the diverse folk beliefs and ideas of a particular group of people who are considered the ambassadors of folk religious activities, beliefs, and thoughts. This Baul group has some original and traditional trends. With the passage of time, the Bauls have begun to mix with the non-Bauls and lead lives like them, and their traditional trends are changing for some specific reasons. Therefore, this study has attempted to focus on the changes in Baul’s traditional trends in relation to their basic and original trends through empirical data collected through interviews and survey activities with a view to finding out what the causes are behind all such changes. This study was conducted at Kushtia district from October 2022 to March 2023. For the investigation of this present study, 40 Bauls were randomly selected from Lalon Akhra of Kushtia district. A number of pieces of literature related to this study have been reviewed to corroborate and support the primary data of this study. The data have been analyzed using descriptive and contextual methods. The findings of this study reflect that the Bauls are influenced by modernism, technology, media, and greed. The traditional trends of the Bauls are changing because of these influencing factors. This study has presented good findings on the causes of changes in Baul’s traditional trends. Thus, this study provides insightful information regarding the changes in Baul’s traditional trends.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to evaluate the nutritional status of patients with end-stage kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. Design/methodology/approach End-stage renal failure outpatients on hemodialysis were selected using simple random sampling technique from the dialysis unit of Sono Hospital Limited, Kushtia, Bangladesh. The nutritional status of 142 participant, of age 18-65 years, was screened. A direct method of nutritional assessment including anthropometric measurement, biochemical measurement, clinical assessment and dietary method was conducted. A logistic regression was applied to estimate the prevalence of malnutrition in hemodialysis patients. Findings In total 69.0 per cent participants were men and 31.0 per cent were women, whereas about 65.5 and 16.9 per cent patients of this study had a BMI of less than 23 kg/m2 and 18.5 kg/m2 (p < 0.05) where malnutrition was significantly prevalent. Mean ± SD hemoglobin level of both men and women participants was below the normal level which might increase the risk of malnutrition (p < 0.05). Of the total number of participants, 97.2 per cent were anemic, 66.9 per cent had anorexia, 63.4 per cent complained of nausea, 58.5 per cent complained of vomiting and 26.1 per cent complained of diarrhea, factors that can increase the risk of malnutrition in hemodialysis patients (p < 0.05). The creatinine and urea levels were higher in both men and women participants (p < 0.05). Results show significant difference in albumin levels among men and women (p < 0.05). The bicarbonate level was lower in both men and women, and the participants were suffering from metabolic acidosis (p < 0.05). About 87.3 per cent participants were taking inadequate amounts of protein which was a significant risk factor of malnutrition in hemodialysis patients (p < 0.01). Originality/value The result shows that renal failure is prevalent more in men than in women. The majority of patients on hemodialysis were at a risk of malnutrition including being underweight. Most of the patients were anemic. Malnutrition is related to low nutrient intake.

An experiment was carried out at farmer’s field of Kushtia district under High Ganges River Floodplain Soil (AEZ-11) during Rabi seasons of 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16. The objectives of the study were to evaluate the effect of boron on the yield of hybrid maize (cv. BARI Hybrid Bhutta-9) and to find out the optimum dose of boron for higher yield and economic return. There were 6 treatments comprising 6 levels (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 kg B ha-1) of boron along with a blanket dose of N256 P65 K45 S27 Zn3 kg ha-1 and cowdung 5 tha-1. Boron fertility of the initial soil was in medium level (0.33 μg g-1). The experiment was conducted in RCB design with three compact replications. Results of three years study revealed that hybrid maize responded significantly to added boron for the first two years but for the third year the effect was statistically non significant. The highest grain yield was obtained with 2.5 kg B ha-1, which was marginally significant with boron control but statistically identical to rest of the boron levels. Although, the yield increased linearly up to 2.5 kg ha-1 but the effect was relatively better fitted with quadratic response function (R2 = 0.943). The mean highest grain yield found to be 8.55 t ha-1 for 2.5 kg B ha-1 against 8.20 t ha-1 from 0.5 kg B ha-1 and 7.84 t ha-1 from boron control. Considering the boron fertilty of soil, response of maize to boron and economic return, the optimum dose of boron may be 0.5 kg ha-1 for the cultivation of hybrid maize for medium level boron fertile soil under AEZ-11 of Kushtia district or alike.Bangladesh J.

Background: The urbanization and urban growth is going through very rapid in Bangladesh. This growth is being fuelled by rising incomes due to rapid expansion of commerce and industry. The rapid and incessant growth of urbanization on Kushtia district is creating continuous pressure on urban health care services. Urban poor people are also a vital factor for promoting urban primary health care services delivery project (UPHCSDP) to provide health care facilities.Methods: A cross sectional survey was carried out among 576 patients in 3 selected urban primary health care centres in Kushtia Municipality with a major concentration of people residing in urban areas. Data were collected using questionnaires regarding type of care or treatment patients demanded and type of care they received from the clinic.Results: Study results showed that total of 46.5% of the subjects demanded maternal and obstetric health services and 8.6% demanded child health diagnosis and care. It was found that a total of 22.0% of the subjects received physical diagnosis from the centres. About 7.1% clients received advice or suggestions and 8.0% received normal delivery service from the centres.Conclusions: The result shows that these clinics provide a lot of health care services to the clients especially on maternal and child health care delivery system. These services are provided to the patient with less or free of cost. Study exhibited that the overall health care services of health care centres are good. The clients come to these centres for the good quality of treatment.

Bipolaris sorokiniana (Sacc.) Shoemaker is a phytopathogenic fungus, causal agent of leaf blight disease of wheat. This fungus is difficult to control because of its immense cultural, morphological, physiological, pathogenic and genetic variability. The aim of this investigation was to study the cultural variability of the selected isolates of B. sorokiniana by means of mycelial compatibility. One hundred fifty isolates of B. sorokiniana from eight districts (Dhaka, Gazipur, Dinajpur, Joypurhat, Pabna, Sirajgonj, Kushtia and Chuadanga) of Bangladesh were studied and cultural variation was characterized on the basis of colony color and texture on PDA medium. They were - Black-Mat (B-M), Black-Fluffy (B-F), Ash-Mat (A-M), Brownish Ash-Fluffy (Br. A-F), Blackish Ash-Mat (Bl.AM), Whitish Ash-Mat (W. A-M), Greenish Ash-Fluffy (G. A-F) and Pinkish White-Mat (P.W-M). To compare and understand cultural variability, mycelial compatibility test was done among the cultural groups. Results revealed that selected isolates of different cultural groups showed incompatible reaction. Incompatibility was also noticed between the isolates of same district and different districts.

The study was conducted in five major BINA developed Aus rice growing areas of Bangladesh, namely Mymensingh, Rangpur, Kushtia, Chapai Nawabganj and Magura district. The study focused on the profitability and productivity of Binadhan-21; and the major constraints to Binadhan-21 production. Simple random sampling technique was followed for this study. A total of 100 farmers were randomly selected as sample size in the study areas, 20 from each district. Data were collected from Aus rice growers through interview schedule. Collected data were edited, summarized, tabulated and analyzed to fulfill the objectives. Some descriptive statistics were used. Binadhan-21 production is highly profitable in the study area. The average yield was 4.86 t ha-1 in Aus season and undiscounted BCR was 1.93. Therefore, Binadhan-21 farmers received high return on its investment. The farmers in the study areas encountered some constraints to Binadhan-21 production. The first ranked was unavailability of seeds in all areas. Other constraints were lack of training (70.83%), crop lost by bird and animal (56.61%), and natural calamities (19.30%). Bangladesh J. Nuclear Agric, 37(1): 111-116, 2023

The study was undertaken to know the profitability of sugarcane production as monoculture and as intercrop. Data were collected from 70 sugarcane growers of Daulatpur Upazilla under Kushtia District. Data were collected during the period from February to July 2003. The study reveals that the sugarcane plus potato combination produced the highest net return followed by sugarcane plus maize, sugarcane plus lentil and sole sugarcane production. Family labour cost, cost of urea, number of fertilizing, sowning/planting time of intercrop, cost of sett were the important factors which influence the profitability of sugarcane production both as intercrop and as nonoculture. High prices of inputs, lack of scientific knowledge, and dishonesty of officials are the major problems in sugarcane production. In order to promote intercropping in a large scale with sugarcane, government and other related organizations must encourage farmers to produce sugarcane as intercrop in order to earn higher net return.

Based on Base Transceiver Station (BTS) and Mobile Station (MS) radiation, the residence of Kushtia district in Bangladesh is usually concerned with the potential health effects. Inhabitants, living in this part of Bangladesh are using communication, internet browsing, and other related uses with the help of mobile cellular communication system. The subscriber needed improving radio coverage, excellent communication networks, and quicker speed for internet browsing with the recent developments in mobile cellular communication technologies. To meet this demand, service providers of mobile cellular companies set up several BTS, which emit harmful radiation that has extremely detrimental impact on the human body. Through this paper, the effects of electromagnetic radiation of MS as well as BTS on the human body have been analyzed and Electromagnetic Field (EMF) radiation levels of MSs along with BTSs located in this region have been measured. These measurements have been compared with the measured value provided by the World Health Organization (WHO) and International Commission of Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). Finally, a cross-sectional analysis was carried out to evaluate the understanding and self-reported health risks of Electromagnetic waves (EMW) radiation emittedfrom the MS as well as BTS among the inhabitants of this region who are living near and a little away from BTS.

Annotation:

Encouraging women to adopt a position of their choice during birth has long been among the calls of scholars and activists challenging medicalised models of childbirth rooted in patriarchy to allow women to own their birthing experiences rather than accept the passivity of a lithotomy position. The encouragement of women to adopt a position of their choosing is now integrated within global health policy. Based on fieldwork conducted in Dhaka and Kushtia district, Bangladesh, this article examines the promotion of non-supine birth positions promoted through international development entities in Bangladesh. It argues that despite its emancipatory appeal, when subsumed by international development logics, the birth position operates as a site of political contestation in which women are rendered peripheral within a broader constellation of development imaginaries and ends. Within this constellation, the birth position is circumscribed as a technical intervention amenable to metricisation. Rather than a ‘return’ to more ‘natural’ forms of birth, ‘non-supine’ birth positions when instrumentalised in this context, are broadly conceived of as ‘foreign’, and serve to expand the medicalisation of childbirth.

Drying is one of the common and ancient methods of fish preservation and is generally done in a wide range of open space. This study attempt to evaluate fish drying method at high-rise urban households with three small indigenous fishes namely Mola (Amblypharyngodon mola), Chapila (Gudusia chapra) and Lal Khailsha (Trichogaster lalius). Fishes were dried at high-rise indoor veranda and outdoor rooftop conditions. The dry weight of Mola, Chapila and Lal Khailsha fishes were 70%, 69.5% and 72% in indoor condition and 71.1%, 70.5% and 73% in outdoor condition. The differences of drying capacity between the indoor and outdoor dried fishes were none (p<0.05), thus, the both drying methods are feasible for the urban lifestyle. In dry state, the moisture level in Mola, Chapila and Lal Khailsha were 6.45%, 7.89% and 7.82% whereas, the protein level were 66.51%, 72.26% and 62.02% respectively. The ash value found in the respective fishes was 10.05%, 12.18% and 16.07% and the amount of total fat was 11.14%, 11.28% and 12.32% respectively. The protein and moisture values showed an inverse relationship between the indoor and outdoor condition. The preference analysis of dried fish was found to be highly (100%) accepted among the dry fish-eating consumers from Chittagong, Lakhimpur, Mymensingh, Rangpur, Bandarban, Pabna and Sylhet districts. On the contrary, in case of the consumers of Barisal and Chandpur districts, the level of acceptance was none (0%), whereas the consumers of Kushtia district have accepted the dry fish moderately (60%).

Malnutrition is a common problem in patients with end stage kidney disease (ESKD) undergoing hemodialysis that increases morbidity and mortality rate in Bangladesh. The main objective of this cross sectional study was carried out to compare the nutritional status between urban patients with rural patients undergoing hemodialysis. End-stage renal-failure outpatients who underwent hemodialysis were recruited from Sono Hospital Limited, Kushtia, Bangladesh. Direct method of nutritional assessment including anthropometric measurement, biochemical measurement, clinical assessment and dietary method was carried out. Socio economic data were also collected. The result reveals that 69.0% of the total participants were male and 31.0% were female. The mean age of male was 46.10±13.23 years and that of female was 43.11±16.47 years. Among 142 cases 50.0% were from urban area and 50.0% were from rural area. 53.5% of the total participants were economically satisfied and 46.5% were non-satisfied. 76.3% of high socioeconomic group consisted of urban area and 23.7% consisted of rural area. Again 19.7% of low socioeconomic group consisted of urban area and 80.3% consisted of rural area. According to WHO classification for BMI 15.5% had BMI below 18.5kg/m2 in urban and 18.3% had BMI below 18.5kg/m2 in rural area. Of the total participants 97.2% were anemic, 66.9% had anorexia, 69.7% had depression, 63.4% had nausea, 58.5% had vomiting, 30.3% had heartburn, 47.2% had constipation, 38.0% had dizziness, 19.7% had chest pain, 5.6% had dysphagia, 34.5% had fatigue, 48.6% had headache, 26.1% had diarrhea, 50.7% had pruritus and 13.4% had shortness of breath. Mean±SD hemoglobin level of urban participants was 8.37±1.46 and that of rural participants was 8.12±1.85. The result shows that malnutrition was more prevalent among rural hemodialysis patients than that of urban. The cause of malnutrition was related to low socioeconomic condition and inadequate nutrient intake.Asian J. Med. Biol. Res. December 2016, 2(4): 603-610

An experiment was conducted in the Plant Pathology Laboratory, Regional Agricultural Research Station, BARI, Jashore using 126 lentil seed samples collected from farmer’s store of different lentil growing areas of Bangladesh to determine physical status and fungal association with lentil seeds. The collected seeds contained different varieties and locations. The seeds were grouped into four grades according to physical status. Among the varieties the maximum apparently healthy seed i. e. grade-1 was found in BARI Masur-7 (90.92 %) and the minimum was in local (59.34 %) varieties. In respect of location the maximum grade-1 seed was recorded from Madaripur (90.75 %) and minimum in Kushtia (47.67 %) district. Germination percentage was the highest in BARI Masur-7 (94.00 %) and the lowest in BARI Masur-3 (75.42 %) variety. Among districts, the highest germination was found in seeds of Meherpur (89.83 %) and the lowest in Narail (62.97 %). A linear positive relation was found between percent germination and apparently healthy seed in case of both varieties and locations. Six fungal genera were associated with lentil seed samples viz. Fusarium sp., Alternaria sp., Stemphylium sp., Curvularia sp., Penicillium sp. and Aspergillus spp. Aspergillus niger caused highest infection (17.58 %) followed by Fusarium oxysporum, Alternaria tennuis, Stemphylium botryosum, Curvularia lunata, Penecillium sp., Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus paraciticus and Aspergillus candidus and the lowest (4.67 %) by Aspergillus ocraceous.

The study has been carried out to measure the activity concentration of natural and anthropogenic radionuclides in fifteen(15) soil samples of Natore, Kushtia and Pabna district, which are around the 30 km peripheral area of Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant, by gamma ray spectrometry system using a High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector. It is found that the activity concentration of 226Ra, in the collected sample was from 3.52 Bq/kg to 28.5 Bq/kg with the average value of 12.42 Bq/kg. For 232Th, the range was from 4.18 Bq/kg to 34.5 Bq/kg with the average value of 12.6 Bq/kg. Finally, the activity concentration of 40K, in the collected sample was in the range of 84 Bq/kg to 345 Bq/kg, and the average value was 198.9 Bq/kg. The absorbed dose rate (D) was found to be in the range of 4.59 nGy/h to 40.93 nGy/h with the mean value 21.3 nGy/h. The annual effective dose (E) was in the range of 0.006 mSv/yr to 0.152 mSv/yr with an average of 0.033 mSv/yr. The radium equivalent activity was in the range from 10.02 Bq/kg to 89 Bq/kg with an average of 44.99 Bq/kg. The external hazard index (Hex) was found to be in the range of 0.027 to 0.242 with the mean value of 0.121 and the internal hazard index (Hin) was found to be in the range of 0.044 to 0.302 with the mean value of 0.156. All the values are much below the recommended limit by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR), 35 Bq/kg for 226Ra, 30 Bq/kg for 232Th and 400 Bq/kg for 40K. According to international and national regulation, the annual dose to members of the public, 1 mSvy-1 and Hex & Hin must be lower than unity. Moreover, no artificial radioactivity was found in the soil samples of this study area. This research concludes that the found values are within the permissible limits as required by the Nuclear Safety and Radiation Control(NSRC) Rules-1997 of Bangladesh and International Atomic Energy Agency(IAEA) Safety Standards- General Safety Requirements (GSR): Part-3.

An increasing number of studies provide evidence on the serious negative consequences of tobacco farming on economic livelihoods, human health and the environment. There is, however, only limited research on tobacco farming in Bangladesh, a significant producer of tobacco leaf. It is not yet well understood why many farmers choose to grow tobacco considering the challenging context. Accordingly, this study examines the factors that influence farmers’ decisions to grow tobacco in Bangladesh. Socio-demographic and economic information was collected from 220 tobacco farmers and 117 non-tobacco farmers from the major tobacco-growing district of Kushtia, for a total sample of 337. These farmers were recruited from two sub-districts (or upazilla—Daulatpur and Mirpur) using a stratified random sampling. A two-level logistic regression model was applied for the identification of the variables that condition farmers’ decisions to cultivate tobacco leaf. Almost two-thirds of the sampled farmers (65.3%) chose to farm tobacco. The results demonstrate that the following variables shape most farmers’ decisions to cultivate tobacco: older age, less education, tobacco firms’ short-term financial support of growing tobacco, greater ease of selling tobacco products at market, better access to credit (also provided by the tobacco companies), and farmer’s perception about higher profits from tobacco cultivation compared to other crops. This study strongly suggests that the government and others working on tobacco control should consider engaging in initiatives to increase farmers’ education, perhaps particularly for older farmers, and provide meaningful financial support in part by helping to increase access to credit and ensuring a better market facility to sell their other healthier agricultural crops, goods and services.

Charland that are emerged as islands within the river channel or as attached land to the riverbanks as a result of erosion and accretion. In crop production systems, screening of adaptable crop varieties for charland is necessary to address the climate change issues. Hence, five separate experiments were conducted at charland of the Padma River in Kushtia district during November 2012 to May 2013 to select suitable varieties of lentil, hybrid maize, soybean, potato and mustard for increasing crop productivity. The experiment comprised of four lentil varieties viz. BARI Masur-4, BARI Masur-5, BARI Masur-6 and a local cultivar; four hybrid maize varieties namely BARI Hybrid maize-5, BARI Hybrid maize-7, BARI Hybrid maize-9 and Pacific-11; three soybean varieties like BARI Soybean-5, BARI Soybean-6 and Shohag; four potato varieties viz., BARI Alu-7, BARI Alu-8, BARI Alu-31 and Belgium; and five mustard varieties viz., BARI Sarisha-11, BARI Sarisha-13, BARI Sarisha-14, BARI Sarisha-15 and BARI Sarisha-16 were evaluated separately in five trials for their adaptation in charland. Among the studied crops, lentil var. BARI Masur-6, maize var. BARI Hybrid maize-9, soybean var. BARI Soybean-6, potato var. BARI Alu-7 and mustard var. BARI Sarisha-11performed better in the charland under climate change situation in Bangladesh.Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 40(4): 629-640, December 2015

The study was undertaken to assess the input used pattern and profitability of maize in selected intensive maize-growing areas of Bangladesh from February to July 2019. The present study was conducted in four districts viz. Chuadanga, Jhenaidah, Meherpur and Kushtia were located at AEZ-11, an intensive maize-growing area. In this study, 160 farmers were selected, of which 40 from each district were randomly selected for data collection. The average farm size was 0.64 ha, whereas the maize cultivated area was 0.34 ha. It was observed that maize was cultivated from November to December in the study area. The average per hectare seed required was 20 kg ha-1 and the fertilizer requirement was 1532 kg ha-1. The average labor required was 275 man-days in a season due to less use of technology. Total production cost was Tk. 162047 ha-1, in which variable cost was Tk. 101066 ha-1 (62%) and the fixed cost was Tk. 60980 ha-1 (38%). The price of the main maize grain at Farmgate was Tk. 18 kg-1. The gross margin was Tk.1 91962 ha-1 and the net margin was Tk. 40515 ha-1 average. The benefit-cost ratio on a cash-cost basis was 1.90 and on a total-cost basis was 1.18, meaning maize cultivation was profitable. Land preparation, seed, organic manure, TSP, Urea, MoP, DAP, Gypsum, Zinc and Boron had a positive influence on maize production. The high price of fertilizer and seed was the main problem farmers faced and due to high demand, there were no marketing problems. Though it had some problems, maize cultivation overall was a profitable crop. Int. J. Agril. Res. Innov. Tech. 13(2): 70-78, Dec 2023

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the response of tobacco yield under different irrigation practices and tobacco varieties during November 2012 to April 2013 (Rabi season) at Paharpur village of Kushtia district. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Four treatments were T0 (control, no irrigation), T1 (traditional practice; 13 cm irrigation water applied), T2 (10 cm irrigation water applied) and T3 (5 cm irrigation water applied). Three tobacco varieties were used for the experiment viz. V1 (NC 95), V2 (K 326) and V3 (CS 447). All necessary data on yield and yield contributing characters including irrigation were collected from experimental plots. Irrigation treatments showed significant effects on yield and yield contributing characters of tobacco. Results revealed that the highest cured leaf yield (3.83 t ha-1) was obtained in treatment T2 followed by T3 (3.46 t ha-1) and T1 (3.07 t ha-1). The highest and lowest yield were obtained as 5.05 t ha-1 and 2.85 t ha-1 for the interactions T2V2 and T1V1, respectively. Highest water productivity (63.92 kg/ha/cm) was found in treatment T3. Among three tobacco varieties, V2 (K 326) gave highest yield followed by V3 (CS 447) and V1 (NC 95) as 3.17, 2.38 and 2.22 t ha-1, respectively. Therefore, application of 10 cm irrigation water on the variety K 326 can be the promising practice for cultivation of tobacco. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbau.v12i1.21408 J. Bangladesh Agril.

Background: Consultant Couple Interactive (CCI) session is an interactive session held weekly between service provider and the infertile couple. Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of CCI sessions on fertility outcome. Methodology: This mixed method study was conducted from May 2009 to August 2012. The samples were collected from a primary care center at Bheramara upazila of district of Kushtia on couples attending during that period. The qualitative part was performed on couples by asking open-ended questions as well as the focus group discussion (FGD). For quantitative part, a preformed data collection sheet (questionnaire) was used to collect data through face to face interview. Results: A total number of 275 couples were studied. For qualitative study, 55(20%) couples were selected, of them 41 participated. In a single focused group up to 6 (12 persons) couples were included. Among the 41 couples, 61% had primary and in 39% had secondary infertility. All the respondents were exposed to CCI sessions but 186 (67.6%) were treated with only with CCI. Out of the remaining 53 (19.3%), needed ovulation inducing oral drugs, 5 (1.8%) were treated with metformin and the others required medical and surgical treatments in different combination according to need. Out of 275 respondents, 112 (40.7%) conceived and among the conceived group, 72 (64.3%) conceived only following CCI. From the seven FGDs, it was revealed that most of the couples followed the advices provided during CCI session, majority were able to improve the relationship among partners and two third of the respondents could relieve 75% of environmental pressure exerted on them. Conclusion: The consultant couple interactive session has significant effect on fertility outcome among infertile couples. Bioresearch Commu. 8(2): 1143-1148, 2022 (July)
