Guava is a popular, export-promising, fast-growing fruit crop in Bangladesh that encompasses an important demand within the local market. We conducted a study of four types of guavas, specifically Thai guava, Strawberry guava, Kazi guava, and Deshi guava, by observing various parameters. The aim of this investigation to explore the physiochemical characteristics of the guava varieties procured from the local market of Noakhali district of Bangladesh. Physical characteristics such as weight, size, length, diameter, shape, and color were determined, as well as the nutritional status of guava varieties, including their non-reducing,reducing sugar , total sugar contents, vitamin C content, and the relationship between total sugar and vitamin C content, was assessed. According to the results, Kazi guava showed the highest fruit weight (220 gm), length (5.96 cm), and breadth (6.6 cm) compared to the other guava varieties available on the market. All the guava varieties had a similar color (green to pale green), while strawberry guava was red in color. Statistically significant variations were found among the chemical characteristics such as total sugar, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar, total sugar, reducing sugar and the vitamin C content of various varieties. The highest value of reducing sugar (6.19%), non-reducing sugar (2.02%), and total sugar (8.55%) was found in Thai guava. Vitamin-C content was highest in Deshi guava (74.73 mg/100gm), whereas Kazi guava had the lowest value (61.20 mg/100 gm) of vitamin C content. However, this research explored that Thai guava had comparatively higher nutrition than others, but physical parameters were found to be best in the Kazi guava variety.

The covid-19 Pandemic has contributed significantly to food crises in Sub-Saharan Africa, Nigeria inclusive. While vaccines have been successfully developed to ameliorate the impact of covid-19 infection, the level and drivers of compliance among farmers have not been adequately documented. This study examined the level of compliance as well as the drivers of compliance to covid-19 vaccination among farmers in Ilorin East Local Government Area of Kwara State, Nigeria. We conducted a farm survey among 120 households drawn through a 3-staged sampling technique. The cross-sectional data obtained were analyzed with descriptive statistics and a logistic regression model. The results of the data analysis show that 87.5 % of the farmers have been vaccinated. 62.5% of the farmers reported that their farming activities were affected adversely by the pandemic. 42.5% of the affected farmers claimed that the effect of covid on their farming activities actually manifested in form of pest infestation. The majority (77.5%) of the affected farmers reported that they recorded financial losses with 71.1% of them recording severe wastages in their farm produce due to delayed harvesting. Household size and years of schooling were the significant determinants of Covid-19 vaccination compliance in the study area. It was thus recommended that efforts should be geared towards educating the rural populace to achieve 100% vaccination for sound health and higher productivity among farmers.

An experiment was conducted to ascertain the impact of weeding and the number of seedlings per hill-1on the performance of aus rice (cv. BR16). The treatments consisted of three weeding methods and four levels of seedlings hill-1in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The number of weeding had an impact on weed dry weight, according to the results. Compared to not weeding, one and two-hand weeding decreased the dry weight of weeds. The degree of shrinkage was greater while weeding with two hands. The number of seedlings hill-1had a substantial impact on yield and all plant morphological parameters, according to data on yield and yield-contributing characteristics of aus rice. With criteria like total tillers hill-1, effective tillers hill-1, grains panicle-1, the weight of 1000 grains, grain yield (5.02 t ha-1), biological yield, and harvest index, four seedlings hill-1achieved the maximum yield. In 8 seedling hill-1, the lowest grain yield (2.58 t ha-1) was discovered. Except for non-effective tillers hill-1and panicle length, all yield-contributing features were strongly impacted by the amount of weeding. Two-hand weeding resulted in the best grain production (5.04 t ha-1) and one weeding produced the lowest yield (3.46 t ha-1). Except for plant height, ineffective tillers hill-1, unfilled grains panicle-1, and weight of 1000 grains, the interaction impact of the number of seedlings hill-1and weeding was found to be significant for the yield-contributing features. With two hands weeding at 20 and 40 DAS, the maximum grain production (5.79 t ha-1) was recorded from 4 seedling hills-1.

The Royal Bengal Tiger (Pantheratigristigris) is the national animal of Bangladesh in addition to India. These most majestic mammalian cats are found in Sundarban mainly. It is a globally endangered and nationally critically endangered species that are conserved by Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). The current study was carried out to establish the status is of tigers within the Bangladesh National Zoo. There are 9 tigers, including 5 males and four females, in the studytenure. The beef was supplied every day except Sunday at 8.47±2.36 kg beef and 0.35±0.14 kg liver per animal per day, whereas only 1.56±0.53 kg of broilerwas allowed on Sunday. The zoo experienced born of several cubs in the last 10 years and 75% of them aremale. However, unfortunately, some of the cubs were died due to cold stress, inbreeding, trypanosomiasis and renal failure. The zoo is a lovely place for breeding and conservationof endangered animals. But many problems are faced due to the lack of proper breeding policy. Housing and other management facilities were recorded well but not internationally standardized. Finally, it can be concluded that Bangladesh National Zoo is a good place for tiger conservation beyond some limitations.

Thakurgaon districts during the period from April to June 2020 for morphometric detection of mango fruit fly collected from different mango growing regions of Bangladesh. Five locations of each Dinajpur and Thakurgaon district were selected and surveyed for collection of mango fruit fly. The samples were used in detecting the morphometric similarities/dissimilarities at the Entomology Laboratory of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University. The locations for collection of the samples in Dinajpur district were Biral, Bochagonj, Kaharole, Fulbari and Khanshama and in Thakurgaon were Sadar, Pirganj, Ranisankail, Baliadangi and Haripur. Data were collected on wing, head, thorax and abdomen of fruit flies and further study was ensured. The fruit fly samples were collected using pheromone trap (methyl-eugenol) at mango orchards. Four different species were morphometrically identified using stereomicroscope. Oriental fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis), melon fruit fly (Zeugodacus cucurbitae), pumpkin fruit fly (Zeugodacus tau), and peach fruit fly (Bactrocerazonata) were the four species of fruit flies that were identified. Total 85.41% of oriental fruit flies were found in pheromone trap which was the highest in number among the collected species. However, 2.44 % of peach fruit fly were identified which was the lowest number of fruit fly. Moreover, 8.81% and 3.34% percent of melon fruit fly and pumpkin fruit fly were collected from pheromone trap respectively. Therefore, number of oriental fruit flies were highest compared to others. The highest infestations were observed at Dinajpur district compared to Thakurgaon district in mango orchard. Dinajpur district’s oriental fruit fly was larger compared to Thakurgaon district’s oriental fruit flies

The selection of appropriate plant spacing may contribute to the yield potential of a rice cultivar. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of spacing on ‘Superamandhan’ at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh from July to December. Twentyhill spacings viz. 25cm × 15cm (S1), 25 cm × 20 cm (S2), 25cm × 25 cm (S3), 30 cm × 20 cm (S4), 30 cm × 25 cm (S5), 30 cm × 30 cm (S6), 40 cm × 20cm (S7), 40 cm × 30 cm (S8), 40 cm × 40 cm (S9), 50 cm × 20 cm (S10), 50 cm × 30 cm (S11), 50 cm ×40 cm (S12), 50 cm × 50 cm (S13), 60 cm × 60 cm (S14), 60 cm × 50 cm (S15), 60 cm × 40 cm (S16), 60 cm × 30 cm (S17), 70 cm × 50 cm (S18), 70 cm × 40 cm (S19) and 70 cm × 30 cm (S20) were included as experimental treatment. The experimental design was randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. This study showed that spacing had a significant influence on the growth, yield, and yield contributing characters of Superamandhan. The highest yield (4.33 t ha-1) of T. amanrice was found at 30 cm × 25cm (S5) spacing. So, it may conclude that ‘Superamandhan’ grown under 30 cm × 25 cm spacing appeared to be the best for obtaining the highest grain yield
