Abstract
The response of mukhi kachu (Colocasia esculenta L.) cultivars (Bilashi and local variety) to inorganic (Urea 140 kg ha-1, TSP = 95 kg ha-1, MP= 145 kg ha-1 and Urea 150 kg ha-1, TSP= 100 kg ha-1, MP= 150 kg ha-1) and organic (Cowdung 5,000 kg ha-1, Mustard oil cake 100 kg ha-1 and Poultry dropping 8000 kg ha-1) fertilizers was determined at the farm of Patuakhali Science and Technology University, Bangladesh. Different levels of organic and inorganic fertilizers showed significant effect on number of cormels, dry weight of cormels and yield of the crop. Organic fertilizers produced significantly higher yields of mukhi kachu over the inorganic fertilizers. The variety Bilashi produced the highest yield (25.66 t ha-1) with the application of mustard oil cake.
