Estimation of Yield of Wheat in Greater Dinajpur Region Using Modis Data
3rd International Conference on Water & Flood Management (ICWFM-2011) ESTIMATION OF YIELD OF WHEAT IN GREATER DINAJPUR REGION USING MODIS DATA A.K.M. Saiful Islam1* and Sujit Kumar Bala2 1 Associate Professor, IWFM, BUET, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh, Email: [email protected]. 2Associate Professor, IWFM, BUET, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh, Email: [email protected]. ABSTRACT The increasing demand of food management, monitoring of the crop growth and forecasting its yield well before harvest is very important. Early yield prediction together with monitoring of crop development and its growth are being identified with the help of satellite and remote sensing images. Studies using remote sensing data along with field level validation reported high correlation between vegetation indices and yield. In recent years, there has been a growing cultivation of cereal crops including wheat in the North West region of Bangladesh especially in the greater Dinajpur area. However, it is difficult to quantify the exact area of wheat cultivation using traditional ground based measurements. However, remote sensing can provide most real time information about the wheat coverage area and can estimate the probable yield. In this study, using the Normalized Differentiate Vegetation Index (NDVI) indicator developed from time series MODIS satellite images, the phonological growth of wheat has been monitored during the Rabi season (November to March) of 2007-2008 for the greater Dinajpur area of Bangladesh. A strong correlation between the wheat production and satellite represented wheat area was found (R2=0.71) which represents the effectiveness of the remote sensing tools for crop monitoring and production estimation. -

Pro-Poor Groundwater Development: the Case of the Barind Experiment In
WATER KNOWLEDGE NOTE Pro-Poor Groundwater Public Disclosure Authorized Development The Case of the Barind Experiment in Bangladesh Partha Sarathi Banerjee1 and Sanjiv De Silva2 Public Disclosure Authorized The Barind region, a water-stressed area in northwest Bangladesh, had an underdeveloped agricultural economy and high levels of poverty until two projects revitalized the area with enhanced groundwater irrigation. The Barind Integrated Area Development Project in 1985 and Barind Multipurpose Development Authority (BMDA) in 1992 used new water extraction technology and innovative management practices such as deep tubewells (DTWs) fitted with smart card–operated electric pumps to develop drought-resilient irrigation. Both projects have helped the Barind region reduce Public Disclosure Authorized poverty and achieve self-sufficiency in rice. However, there are concerns about declining groundwater levels in the Barind and nearby regions, resulting in a temporary halt in DTW expansion. Preliminary evidence presented in this case study suggests farmers served by shallow tubewells (STWs) may be losing access to groundwater in some parts of the Barind region, which can have significant development implications because these tubewells remain the predominant source of irrigation. This evidence provides grounds to question whether an irrigation model reliant on DTWs is sustainable and equitable in the long term. Further research is needed to better establish groundwater conditions and understand the Public Disclosure Authorized risk to STW users to inform future policy on DTW-driven agricultural development. © Sanjiv De Silva / IWMI The information in this case study was prepared as part of the South Asia Water Initiative (SAWI) technical assistance project Managing Groundwater for Drought Resilience in South Asia. -
Evaluation of the Aquifer System and Groundwater Quality of the North-Western Districts of Bangladesh for Development Potential
BRAG University Journal, Vol. XI, No.2, 2016,pp. 85-100 EVALUATION OF THE AQUIFER SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER QUALITY OF THE NORTH-WESTERN DISTRICTS OF BANGLADESH FOR DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL Kamrul Islam, M. Saidur Rahman, M. Hazrat Ali, A.F.M. Afzal Hossain Irrigation Management Division Institute of Water Modelling (IWM), Dhaka email author: kamrulislam _ [email protected] M. Jahangir Alam Barind Multipurpose Development Authority, Thakurgaon AnwarZahid Ground Water Hydrology, Bangladesh Water Development Board, Dhaka ABSTRACT Considering the comparatively low agricultural production in the area, assessment of the potential of increased agricultural production in Panchagarh, Thakurgaon, Dinajpur and Joypurhat districta was undertaken, through optimum utilization of available water resources. Physiographically, Thakurgaon, Dinajpur and Panchagarh areas are mostly under the Old Himalayan Piedmont Plain and Joypurhat and some areas of Dinajpur are under the Tista floodplain and Barind Tract. To explore the aquifer system in the area, a total of 15 new test drillings were cnoducted down to the maximum depth of 300 m and 50 observation wells were selected for observing the groundwater level trend. Groundwater samples were collected from 20 locations for analysis and interpretation of important physicochemical parameters. The important constitoenta that influence the water quality for inigation were calculated using standard equations. From the spatial distribution of the borelogs from northwest to southeast reveals that down to the investigated depth of 300m the aquifer system is hydraulically connected regionally though one or more aquitards are encountered at local level. The maximum depth to groundwater table below ground surface is between 4.0 to 12.0 m doring dry month of April. -

Gender-Related Development Index for 64 Districts of Bangladesh
CPD-UNFPA Paper 19 Gender-Related Development Index For 64 Districts Of Bangladesh Introduction With gender equality being the subject of the concern among the policy makers of developing countries, the integration of women into the development process and therefore their participation in economic activities along with men, have been gaining importance in many national development plans. Development planners initially assumed that overall economic development and the process of modernisation in the Third World would bring about an improvement in the status of women by benefiting both men and women equally (Lewina, 1999). However it has been recently recognised, mainly because of global awareness created during the UN decade of women, (1975-85) that women’s contribution to development is essential to the success of national development. In spite of this increasing awareness, appreciation of the economic and social values of women’s role in a country’s development falls far short of what is due. Despite extraordinary transformations in gender roles and relationships, there exist large differences in sex roles and circumstances. Overall women have made little gains in economic well being. It has been argued that the structural adjustment programmes of the World Bank and the IMF are creating problems for women by imposing greater burdens on them through the abolition of price controls and food subsidies, public service cutbacks and increased male unemployment. As a result the “feminisation of poverty” has become prominent in recent years (Lewina, 1999). The lack of gender awareness in policy formulation has contributed to the failure of development programmes. Given the importance of sustainable development it is therefore imperative that raising gender awareness becomes part of development programs in general. -
