Bangladhonia (Eryngium foetdum L.) is a highly priced aromatic and
medicinal culinary herb increasingly cultivated world wide. Seed -
its production, rapid viability degradation and low germination
rate limits its dissemination and cultivation. Experiments were
conducted by the author at the Horticulture Field Laboratory of
BSMRAU, Bangladesh to study morphology, fresh herb and seed
production potentiality, seed storage and viability improvement.
The dissertation includes method of Eryngium cultivation,
morphological study, fresh herb and seed production, seed storage,
viability and germination enhancement using growth regulators with
different plant spacing. The highest seed yield (136.3kg/ha), gross
return(BD Tk. 0.75 million/ha) and BCR (4.76) was recorded in 10x10
cm plant spacing. Seed treated with growth regulator solution (GA3
500ppm + Kinetin 50ppm) gave the maximum germination (31.23%),
fresh yield (55.90 t/ha), gross return (BD Tk. 1.37 million/ha),
gross margin (BD Tk. 1.18 million/ha) and BCR (8.52) with 20 kg
seed/ha in broadcasting sowing system. Low temperature (4-5 deg.C)
storage with air tight sealed polyethylene bag packaging was found
better for storage of seeds.
