  • Taxonomy of the Leafy Vegetables in Bangladesh
    Bangladesh J. Plant Taxon. 20(1): 95-123, 2013 (June) © 2013 Bangladesh Association of Plant Taxonomists TAXONOMY OF THE LEAFY VEGETABLES IN BANGLADESH 1 MAKSUDA KHATUN, MD. ABUL HASSAN, SHAIKH NAZRUL ISLAM 2 AND M. OLIUR RAHMAN Department of Botany, University of Dhaka, Dhaka 1000, Bangladesh Keywords: Leafy vegetables; New reports; Taxonomy; Bangladesh. Abstract Thirty four exploration trips made throughout Bangladesh from 2000 to 2012 resulted in identification of 186 taxa used as leafy vegetables in the country, of which 173 taxa belong to angiosperms and 13 taxa to pteridophytes. Among the angiosperms, Magnoliopsida is represented by 153 taxa under 114 genera and 43 families, whereas Liliopsida is represented by 20 species under 15 genera and 8 families. Pteridophytes are symbolized by 13 species belonging to 10 genera and 10 families. Under each taxon updated nomenclature, vernacular names, habit, representative specimen and area of major consumption of the plant as a leafy vegetable have been provided. Out of 186 leafy vegetables identified in Bangladesh, 140 taxa are wild and 46 are cultivated. Among the cultivated ones 16 species are cultivated only as leafy vegetables and 30 are cultivated for other purposes but also used as leafy vegetables. A total of 61 species have been newly documented as leafy vegetables for Bangladesh. Introduction Leafy vegetables are referred to leaves of any plants used as vegetables, sometimes accompanied by tender petioles and shoots. They constitute a major portion of our diet and play an important part in alleviating malnutrition. FAO (2012) has estimated that about 870 million people are chronically undernourished in the period 2010-12 representing 12.5% of the global population, or one in eight people.

    Society & Change Vol. XIII, No.4, October-December 2019 ISSN: 1997-1052 (Print), 227-202X (Online) Comparative Study of High School Dropout Students in Bangladesh: Evidence from Brahmanbaria and Habiganj Districts Mohammed Amran Hossain* Mst. Farzana Akter** Abstract Dropout becomes a global issue as millions of students around the world drop out of school every year while education is one of the basic needs of human. The Sustainable Development Goals includes one to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education so that students can complete their primary and secondary education in every country. Some countries make primary and secondary education free and compulsory to make sure cent percent enrollment. But dropout rate is not decreasing in that way which we want. This study is intended to show the scenario of dropout and influential reasons behind it in Habiganj district of Bangladesh and compare the status with Brahmanbaria district. The study revealed that most of the students drop out of school because of poverty (37.60%) followed by negligence of parents (19%) and then early marriage (13.30%). We discovered that almost half of dropout students had poor performance in school and most of the students left school because of negligence of parents, self-negligence, family problem, mental illness etc. The dropout status of Habiganj and Brahmanbaria is almost similar but early marriage influenced more in Brahmanbaria than Habiganj. Government must take necessary steps regarding poverty alleviation, reducing early marriage, making school a better place of learning etc. so that students want to go to school and feel better for learning. Keywords: Dropout students, Poverty, Early marriage, High School, Bangladesh Introduction Education is one of the basic needs of human and it is necessary for social or economic development of a country.
