THIOUREA APPLICATION FREQUENCY ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF GARLIC CHIVES (Allium tuberosum)

A field experiment was accomplished in the Horticulture farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from Jun 2019 – mid August 2019 to study the efficacy of Thiourea application on Garlic chives production. Thiourea applications, viz., No application (T_U0), once application-1000ppm (T_U1) and Twice application-1000ppm (TU2) were used in this experiment arranged Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. Data on different growth and yield attributes parameters were taken in which all the treatment showed significant variations. Maximum yield/plant (15.0 g, 17.7 g and 19.3 g), yield/plot (428.0 g, 531.3 g and 579.7 g) and yield/ha (13.86 t) found in twice application of thiourea treatment (T_U2). In view of overall performances, twice application (T_U2) of thiourea has potentiality for Garlic chives production.
