  • Resource Productivity in the Irrigated
    ISSN 0258-7122 (Print), 2408-8293 (Online) Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 42(2): 387-392, June 2017 Short Communication GROWTH RATES OF FRUITS CULTIVATION IN HILLY AREAS OF BANGLADESH M. A. HOSSAIN1, M. KHATUN2, M. A. MATIN3 AND M. F. DEWAN4 Keywords: Hill regions, fruits, area, production, productivity, trend and growth rate. The fruits have vital role in making human diet balanced. Standard of living of people generally judged by per capita production and consumption of fruits (Bairwa et al., 2012). Bangladesh is producing a variety of fruits owing to its various agro-climatic conditions. Perennial crops like trees normally remain as grossly under exploited potential resources in hill agriculture. Fruits are usually grown by the hilly farmers and these crops give them few opportunities. Fruits play a unique role in developing countries like Bangladesh, both economic and social sphere for improving income and nutritional status, particularly for hilly people. Besides nutritional advantages, there are other competing reasons for which fruit production in hilly areas deserves preference. These include: (i) due to agro climatic features, horticulture is the only vocation through which higher income per unit of land can be generated. (ii) fruit farming helps in proper utilization of areas (iii) fruit cultivation allows optimum utilization of the gift of nature in making it possible to upgrade inferior fruit trees into superior ones by top working and by adopting other techniques of vegetative propagation (iv) given suitable combination, fruit farming can even be taken as a complementary occupation in hills to a set of other business propositions (Wasim, 2011). Siddiqu (2001) reported that very good quality litchi grows in the Chittagong district in hill area.

    THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad Reg no. 111 Session: 2011-2012 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository DEDICATION To my parents and sister Dhaka University Institutional Repository Abstract As homicide is one of the most comparable and accurate indicators for measuring violence, the aim of this study is to improve understanding of criminal violence by providing a wealth of information about where homicide occurs and what is the current nature and trend, what are the socio-demographic characteristics of homicide offender and its victim, about who is most at risk, why they are at risk, what are the relationship between victim and offender and exactly how their lives are taken from them. Additionally, homicide patterns over time shed light on regional differences, especially when looking at long-term trends. The connection between violence, security and development, within the broader context of the rule of law, is an important factor to be considered. Since its impact goes beyond the loss of human life and can create a climate of fear and uncertainty, intentional homicide (and violent crime) is a threat to the population. Homicide data can therefore play an important role in monitoring security and justice.
