ABSTRACT
An experiment was carried out to develop fertilizer recommendation on the yield of chilli at multi-Location testing site, Malancha, Melandah, Jamalpur during October, 2015 to February, 2017. Local variety (Balijorimorich) was used in the study. Five treatments were included in the study these were, T₁ = Recommended dose of chemical fertilizers (RD), T₂ = Soil test-based fertilizer dose (STB), T₃ = 125% STB based fertilizer dose, T₄ = IPNS based fertilizer dose + 5 t CD/ha, T₅ = Farmers’ practice. Results in both years indicated that IPNS based fertilizer dose + 5 t CD/ha significantly influenced chilli production. The highest dry yield of chilli in both the years (4.51 & 4.45 t ha^-1, respectively) was recorded from IPNS based fertilizer dose + 5 t CD/ha and the lowest dry yield (2.67 & 2.68 t ha^-1, respectively) was obtained from farmers’ practice.
