Title Advances in Pulses Research in Bangladesh Proceedings of the Second National Workshop on Pulses 6-8 Jun 1989 Joydebpur, Bangladesh
 
Subject Agriculture-Farming, Production, Technology, Economics
 
Description Fifty scientists actively engaged in pulses improvement in Bangladesh participated in the second National Workshop on Pulses which was held at the completion of the BARl-lDRC Pulses Project. The representatives of the Pulses Programs from India, Nepal, and Myanmar and scientists from ICRISAT Center (India) also participated. Papers reviewed pulses research done in the eighties on breeding, crop management, crop protection, seed prodution and consumer quality, and regional pulses research links. The workshop recommended expansion of the Pulses Improvement Program In Bangladesh. It was agreed that more genetic variability should be obtained for making rapid progress. The workshop suggested that increased efforts be made to breed for early maturing, disease and pest resistant cultivars and for development of cultural practices for obtaining high stable yields of pulses. The recommendations form a valuable guideline for future research and development of these crops in Bangladesh and other similar regions.
