“…Jute (Corchorus capsularis L. and C. olitorius L.) is the main cash crop of Bangladesh and it has a great influence on socio-economic life of jute farmers in Bangladesh. Bangladesh supplies about 70% jute and related product to the global market [1]. As a single producer and exporter, Bangladesh possesses second position among Jute exporting countries.…”

The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of seed-borne fungal pathogens of jute and their control with plant extract. The experiment was carried out in seed pathology centre, Bangladesh Agricultural University to obtain relevant information about the health of jute seeds and find out the efficacy of extracts as seed-treater. Two varieties viz., Deshipat (Corchorus capsularis) and Tossapat (Corchorus olitorius) were selected for this study and jute seeds were collected from two different locations of Bangladesh. The major predominant identified fungi were Colletotrichum corchori, Macrophomina phaseolina, Fusarium spp., and Botryodiplodia theobromae. Least seed-borne fungi were found in the variety of Tossapat. Low germination of seeds was found related to high prevalence of seed-borne fungal infections. Highest seed-borne infection was obtained in the variety of Deshipat. In this study, we evaluated some major plant extracts such as garlic clove (Allium sativum), neem leaves (Azadirachta indica), allamanda leaves (Allamanda cathartica L.) and marigold leaves (Tagetes spp.) for observing the action of these plant extracts on seed borne fungi of Jute. The study revealed that the extract of Garlic (Allium sativum), and Biskatali (Polygonum hydropiper) increased the germination of seeds and garlic (Allium sativum) extract was also found to be most effective in controlling the seed-borne infection among all the treatments. Although the inhibiting capacity of the extracts of Allamanda (Allamanda cathartica L.) and Biskatali (Polygonum hydropiper) was found to be similar and Biskatali extract was found to have the second position among all the treated plant extracts in inhibiting the growth of isolated fungal pathogens.

“…There are also some works reported on the potato in Bangladesh (Elias et al [14]; Elias et al [15]; Hakim [16]; Rashid [17]; Arif [18]; Akhter et al [19] and Mukul et al [20]). Previous studies about different agricultural crops in Bangladesh (Hossain and Abdulla [21]; Hossain and Abdulla [22]; Hossain and Abdulla [23]; Abdulla and Hossain [24]; Hossain and Abdulla [25]; Hossain and Abdulla [26]; Hossain and Abdulla [27]; Hossain et al [28]) used ARIMA model to analyze and forecast the production of different agricultural crops like jute, tea, wheat, tomatoes etc.…”

Abstract. Bangladesh is recognized as a rice-eating nation; nevertheless, large quantities of potatoes are produced and consumed each year. In Bangladesh, potato has gradually gained popularity. Potato is used as food crop as well as vegetable by both the poor and rich people. Recently, the government has been trying to diversify food habits and encourage potato consumption to reduce pressure on rice. In this regard, potato can play an important role as an alternative and a multipurpose food crop of Bangladesh. This study considered the published secondary data of yearly potato production in Bangladesh over the period 1971 to 2013. The best selected Box-Jenkins ARIMA model for forecasting the potato production for whole Bangladesh is ARIMA(0,2,1). The comparison between the original series and forecasted series shows that the fitted model behaved statistically well and is suitable to forecast the potato productions in Bangladesh.

In the present era, a number of researchers are using either industrial or agricultural priceless products as a basic source of raw materials for the construction industry. These waste products are economical and helpful in producing a sustainable environment and reducing environmental pollution, which is called handling waste products. However, this research work was conducted on concrete containing 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1% of jute fiber as reinforcement material and 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% of wheat straw ash (WSA) as replacement for fine aggregates. Moreover, the separate and combined effect of jute fiber and WSA as a replacement for sand ingredient in concrete is to determine the fresh and hardened properties of concrete. In this research, a number of concrete samples were prepared with 1 : 1.5 : 3 mix proportion at 0.54 water-cement ratio and cured at 28 days. The experimental outcomes displayed that the compressive, splitting tensile, and flexural strengths improved by 32.88 MPa, 3.80 MPa, and 5.30 MPa at 0.50% of jute fiber along with 30% of WSA at 28 days consistently. Similarly, the modulus of elasticity was developed while the dosages of jute fiber and WSA increased together in concrete. Moreover, the permeability and workability of concrete were reduced while utilized jute fiber and WSA increased together in concrete.
