Assessment of the profitability and productivity of Jute-T Aman-Maize cropping pattern at char land in Jamalpur district of Bangladesh

People living in the char land area are considered most disadvantaged group of people Bangladesh. Considering situation, a study was conducted to evaluate feasibility increasing income dwellers by following profitable cropping pattern. The treatments were CP1 (Farmers’ practice pattern): Grass pea (BARI Khesari- 1)-Jute (var. JRO 524)-T. Aman Swarna) and CP2 (Altered Maize Hybrid 981)-Jute Binadhan-11). A randomized complete block design with six dispersed replications followed this experiment. It observed that altered pattern (CP2) produced higher rice equivalent yield (avg. 25.47 t ha-1), production efficiency (78.61 kgha-1 day-1) gross margin US$ 3056.58 ha-1 than those farmer’s (CP1) (12.97 (40.40 day- 1) (Tk. 79,950 ha-1). Gross increased 206% compared existing pattern, revealing rabi crop based including flood damage escaping varieties {Maize Binadhan-11)} is appropriate for getting productivity profitability poor Jamalpur district SAARC J.
