To ensure the sustainability of the outcome, an associated technical assistance is proposed to assist the government in updating its master plan for roads and improving its planning capacity. Project Rationale and Bangladesh reached lower middle-income status in July 2015. With its young and rapidly growing Linkage to Country/Regional population, Bangladesh has the potential to become a major exporter of labor-intensive products. Its Strategy location between South and Southeast Asia provides the country good prospects of becoming a regional trading hub. But the country's transport infrastructure is inadequate, which raises costs, reduces competitiveness, and impedes intra-regional trade.

    Bangladeshi College Students' Use of Icts for Health Information

    Waldman et al. Globalization and Health (2018) 14:31 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12992-018-0349-6 RESEARCH Open Access ‘We have the internet in our hands’: Bangladeshi college students’ use of ICTs for health information Linda Waldman1* , Tanvir Ahmed1,2, Nigel Scott3, Shahinoor Akter2,4, Hilary Standing1 and Sabrina Rasheed2 Abstract Background: Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) which enable people to access, use and promote health information through digital technology, promise important health systems innovations which can challenge gatekeepers’ control of information, through processes of disintermediation. College students, in pursuit of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) information, are particularly affected by gatekeeping as strong social and cultural norms restrict their access to information and services. This paper examines mobile phone usage for obtaining health information in Mirzapur, Bangladesh. It contrasts college students’ usage with that of the general population, asks whether students are using digital technologies for health information in innovative ways, and examines how gender affects this. Methods: This study relies on two surveys: a 2013–2014 General Survey that randomly sampled 854 households drawn from the general population and a 2015 Student Survey that randomly sampled 436 students from two Mirzapur colleges. Select focus group discussions and in-depth interviews were undertaken with students. Icddr,b’s Ethical Review Board granted ethical clearance. Results: The data show that Mirzapur’s college students are economically relatively well positioned, more likely to own mobile and smart phones, and more aware of the internet than the general population. They are interested in health information and use phones and computers to access information.

  • Cropping Pattern, Intensity and Diversity in Dhaka Region

    Cropping Pattern, Intensity and Diversity in Dhaka Region

    Bangladesh Rice J. 21 (2) : 123-141, 2017 Cropping Pattern, Intensity and Diversity in Dhaka Region N Parvin1*, A Khatun1, M K Quais1 and M Nasim1 ABSTRACT Sustainable crop production in Bangladesh through improvement of cropping intensity and crop diversity in rice based cropping system is regarded as increasingly important in national issues. Planning of agricultural development largely depends on the authentic, reliable and comprehensive statistics of the existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity of a particular area, which will provide guideline to our policy makers, researchers, extensionists and development workers. The study was conducted over all 46 upazilas of Dhaka agricultural region in 2015 using pretested semi-structured questionnaire with a view to document the existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity in the region. From the present study, it was observed that about 48.27% net cropped area (NCA) is covered by exclusive rice cropping systems whereas deep water rice occupied about 16.57% of the regional NCA. The most dominant cropping pattern Boro−Fallow−T. Aman alone occupied about 22.59% of net cropped area (NCA) with its distribution over 32 upazilas out of 46. The second largest area was covered by single Boro cropping pattern, which was spread over 44 upazilas. Total number of cropping patterns was observed 164. The highest number of cropping pattern was identified 35 in Tangail sadar and Dhamrai upazila of Dhaka district and the lowest was seven in Bandar of Narayanganj and Palash of Narsingdi district. The lowest crop diversity index (CDI) was reported as 0.70 in Dhamrai followed by 0.72 in Monohardi of Narsingdi.

  • Socio-Economic Conditions of the Pond Owners of Demra, Dhaka

    Socio-Economic Conditions of the Pond Owners of Demra, Dhaka

    Bangladesh]. Fish. Res., 4(2), 2000: 203-207 Scientific Note Socio-economic conditions of the pond owners of Demra, Dhaka M. A. Quddus*, M.S. Rahman1 and M. Moniruzzaman2 Department ofAgricultural Statistics, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh 2202, Bangladesh 1Department of Fisheries Management, BA U, Mymensingh 2Senior Officer, Sonali Bank, Dhaka * Corresponding address Abstract On the basis of fish culture status 96 ponds of the study area were classified into 4 categories like wild stock (27%), extensive culture (24%), improved extensive culture (33%) and semi-intensive culture (16%). Percentage of small, medium and large ponds were 38, 44, and 18 respectively whereas education levels below SSC, below Bachelor and above were 43, 38 and 19 respectively and single owners belonged to 54% of the ponds. Per hectare yields of extensive, improved extensive and semi-intensive categories of culture were 1.3, 2.12 and 4.0 metric tons respectively and their net return were 46, 63 and 92 thousand taka respectively. Considering the problems of fish culture, multiple ownership was found to be the most important one. Key words: Socio-economic, Pond fishery Fish and fishery resources play a vital role in improving socioeconomic conditions, combating malnutrition, earning foreign currency and creating employment opportunities in Bangladesh. There are 5,277,571 hectare water bodies of which 915,506 hectare ponds which are suitable for fish culture, but most of them remain unused (BBS 1997). If the existing ponds are brought under fish culture by exact planning, proper management and re-excavation, the present fish production level can easily be increased 2 to 3 times to reach the recommended quantity of fish for the people of Bangladesh.
