Salinity affects crops depending on degree of salinity at the critical stages of growth, which reduces yield and in severe cases the total yield is lost. In this study, historic high tidal water level data in the study area shows a rising trend which indicates the increase of areal extent of tidal inundation in future. In addition, concentration of salinity shows an increasing trend over the years in the area. So there is a possibility of having consequence of increasing saline water concentration as well as areal extent of saline water with different levels in future. In this connection, the present study shows, the agricultural land use risk from salinity perspective due to sea level rise from 2015 to 2030 in Dhalua Union under Barguna Sadar Upazila. The study findings also show that, all water level stations are observing a rising trend which also influences on high tidal inundation extents in different years. Inundation extent will become more than doubled estimated to 9.64 sq. km to 20.58 sq.km from the year 2015 to 2030. In 2015, about 38% of total agricultural land will be inundated by peak high tidal inundation which will be also more than doubled in 2030. There is an inverse relationship exist between high tidal water level and salinity (Ec) level. Peak high tidal inundation with sea level rise induced salinity concentration will be decreased in future. The Dhalua union occupies a total 25.16 sq. km of agricultural land of which, in 2015, 17.52 %, 12.67 %, and 8.50 % agricultural land will be under moderate, high and very high risk categories respectively. In 2020, about 0.299 sq.km of agricultural land will be under low risk of salinity (441 – 680) which is absent for 2015 and on the other hand, no agricultural land will be found under very risk of salinity. Moderate risk of salinity area will be significantly increased amounted to 47.45 % of total agricultural land in 2020. In 2025, 75.31 % of total agricultural land will be under low risk of salinity. Almost 95 % of the inundated crop area will be exposed by very low risk of salinity and remaining will be under low risk of salinity in 2030. 1 CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Tidal effect in coastal region of Bangladesh is one of the noteworthy problems especially for farmer groups. On the other hand, for shrimp and salt cultivators saline water caused by tidal water intrusion is beneficial. But gradual increase of areal extent of saline water in coastal region will cause a serious alarming situation for agriculture.

  • Diversity of Crops and Land Use Pattern in Barisal Region
    Bangladesh Rice J. 21 (2) : 57-72, 2017 Diversity of Crops and Land Use Pattern in Barisal Region M Ibrahim1*, M A U Zaman2, A B M Mostafizur2 and S M Shahidullah2 ABSTRACT Development workers, researchers and extensionists always need a comprehensive understanding and a reliable database on existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity of a particular area for the planning of future research and development. With this view, a survey-work was implemented over all the upazilas of Barisal region during 2016. A pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire was used as tool to document the existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity of the area. In the current investigation, 103 cropping patterns were identified. The highest number of cropping patterns 40 was found in Burhanuddin upazila of Bhola district and the lowest eight was in Betagi and Taltali of Barguna. The most dominant cropping pattern single T. Aman occupied 13.40% of net cropped area (NCA) of the region with its distribution over 33 upazilas out of 42. The second largest area, 10.44% of NCA, was covered by Boro−Fallow− T. Aman, which was spread out over 32 upazilas. The lowest crop diversity index (CDI) was recorded 0.221 in Agailjhara of Barisal district followed by 0.598 in Bhandaria of Pirojpur. The highest value of CDI was observed 0.972 in Charfasson followed by 0.968 in Tazumuddin of Bhola. The range of cropping intensity values was observed 107-249%. The maximum value was for Bhola sadar and minimum for Agailjhara of Barisal. The overall CDI of Barisal region was calculated 0.968 and the grand mean for cropping intensity at regional level was 204%.
