摘要：The study was conducted at the farm of Banghobondhu Shekh Mogibur Rahman Agriculture University, Gazipur during the period of November to December, 2010 to enhance the production of red amaranth ( Amaranthus tricolor cv: BARI lal shak 1) through the improvement of growth and yield of red amaranth by optimizing the appropriate levels of nitrogen fertilizer. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) comprising six treatments with four replication each. The treatment combinations were T 0 (0 kg N ha -1 ), T 1 (50 kg N ha -1 ), T 2 (75 kg N ha -1 ), T 3 (100 kg N ha -1 ), T 4 (125 kg N ha -1 ) and T 5 (150 kg N ha -1 ), respectively. Amounts of N, P, K and S applied from urea, TSP, MOP and gypsum were 68, 23, 17 and 4 kg ha -1 , respectively. Data on plant height, leaf number, root-shoot growth and dry weight along with yield and BCR (benefit cost ratio) indicated that urea applied at the rate of 150 kg N ha -1 had a significant (p<0.01) effect on the short term growth and yield of red amaranth.
