  • An Economic Evaluation of Okra and Ash Gourd Vegetables in Gazipur and Chittagong Districts of Bangladesh
    AN ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF OKRA AND ASH GOURD VEGETABLES IN GAZIPUR AND CHITTAGONG DISTRICTS OF BANGLADESH Major Professor: Dr. Joynal Abedin Name of the author: MD. Jahangir Kabir Reg. No.: 98-05-752 Year: 1999 Abstract This study was conducted in two villages, namely, Pajulia and Jobra under Gazipur sadar and Hat Hazari thana in Gazipur and Chittagong district, respectively. The specific objective of the study was to empirically measure the profitability of okra and ash gourd vegetables and compare the profitability of IPSA developed okra and other okra and to examine their productivity and resource use efficiency. Primary data were collected from 60 vegetables growers from selected villages during 1999. Tabular and some functional input-output analyses were done in this study. It was found that per hectare gross costs of production of okra stood at Tk.49379, and Tk.48306 while per hectare gross return, net return above gross costs and net return above cash costs were Tk.97100, and Tk. 10910, Tk.47721 and Tk.60794, Tk.68821, and Tk.81819 in Gazipur and Hat Hathazari, respectively. Similarly per hectare gross costs of production of ash gourd stood at Tk.52140, and Tk.50317 while per hectare gross return, net return above gross costs and net return above cash costs were Tk.79600, and Tk.83600, Tk.27460 and Tk.33283, Tk.44788 and Tk.51553, in Gazipur and Hat Hazari, respectively. The per hectare gross costs of production of IPSA okra stood at Tk.31809, while per hectare gross return, net return above gross costs and net return above cash costs were Tk.

December, 2007 All rights reserved www.bioline.org.br/ja Vol. 11(4) 105 - 112 Arsenic Incorporation into Garden Vegetables Irrigated with Contaminated Water RAHMAN I.M.M. * AND HASAN M.T. Applied Research Laboratory, Department of Chemistry, University of Chittagong, Chittagong-4331, Bangladesh *Corresponding Author. Tel.: +88-031-635631. Fax: +88-031-726310. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Daily vegetable requirement are mostly fulfilled in Bangladesh through homestead garden production which are usually irrigated with arsenic-rich underground water. Garden vegetables grown in arsenic-tainted soil may uptake and accumulate significant amount of arsenic in their tissue. Mean, minimum and maximum arsenic content in some common garden vegetables, e.g. bean, bitter gourd, bottle gourd, brinjal, chilli, green papaya, mint, okra, palwal, potato, red amaranth, string bean and sweet gourd, from an arsenic- prone locality of Bangladesh have been assessed. The contribution of vegetable-arsenic in the daily diet was estimated. Correlation with the groundwater arsenic status and statistical significance of variations has been discussed. @ JASEM The natural contamination of shallow hand extracted from the shallow tubewells, were tubewells in Bangladesh with arsenic has caused collected in pre-washed polyethylene bottles. widespread human exposure to this toxic element 0.01% HNO3 per litre of water was added as through drinking water (Karim, 2000, Paul et al., preservative and kept at 4°C before analysis. Ag- 2000). Beside direct consumption for drinking, DDTC-Hexamethylenetetramine-Chloroform arsenic contaminated water is also used for method, having detection limit 0.20 µg/mL of irrigation and cooking purposes.

  • Estimating Urban Flood Hazard Zones Using Swmm in Chittagong City
    Tech. J. River Res. Inst. 13(1): 87-101, 2016 (October), ISSN: 1606-9277 ESTIMATING URBAN FLOOD HAZARD ZONES USING SWMM IN CHITTAGONG CITY Aysha Akter1 and Ahad Hasan Tanim2 Abstract Identifying urban flood-prone areas with their relative hazard scale is the fundamental work of urban flood management. This may introduce using a probabilistic methodology by flood hazard zoning of potential urban flood hazard area. Based on statistical analysis of US EPA Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) with a threshold value of maximum depth of each node of link network number of overflow events in a specified time period can be obtained. Further using Kernel hazard density the spatial analysis in ArcGIS can be used to obtain a GIS compatible maps for the hazard zoning of the potentially flood prone areas. In this study Chittagong city, the second largest city of Bangladesh has been taken as a case study and the wettest year 2014 was selected for model simulation. The validated model outcome reasonably identified the flood prone vulnerable zones which is comparable to the outcome of recent field studies. Thus, it is expected that the acquired flood hazard mapping will play major role once this is observed using details field data. Finally, this would provide flood risk information to the decision makers and flood protection works to prioritize the relatively more flood hazard zone for management purpose. Introduction Chittagong city area has experienced the highest number of flood incidence in last decades. Social environment, local economy and ecology have been hampered and degraded due to prolonged urban flooding.

  • Land Politics in Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh: Dynamics of Property, Identity and Authority
    Land Politics in Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh: Dynamics of Property, Identity and Authority Fariba Alamgir A thesis submitted to the School of International Development, University of East Anglia, and to the Department of Food and Resource Economics, University of Copenhagen, in partial fullfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September 2017 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. i Abstract Studies have revealed intense competition over land in Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) of Bangladesh. This study examines land dispute processes within and between hill people (Chakma Community) and Bengali settlers (who migrated through government initiated settlement program in 1979) in CHT. By understanding property, identity and authority as relational; my study explores mutually constitutive processes between property and authority relations, and between property and identity relations. It investigates how property in land is claimed and defined in the context of dynamic authority relation in land control, multiple categorisations and identity claims in CHT. By carrying out a historical analysis of state-making, I argue that CHT remains a frontier because of- the distinctive legal and administrative systems, ambivalence in property system, ongoing processes of reconfiguration of institutional arrangements in land control and state’s territorial strategies to control its population and space. The study employs an ethnographic approach and data are collected by engaging with disputants, institutional actors, academics, members of political organizations and civil society.

  • Diversity of Cropping Systems in Chittagong Region
    Bangladesh Rice J. 21 (2) : 109-122, 2017 Diversity of Cropping Systems in Chittagong Region S M Shahidullah1*, M Nasim1, M K Quais1 and A Saha1 ABSTRACT The study was conducted over all 42 upazilas of Chittagong region during 2016 using pre-tested semi- structured questionnaire with a view to document the existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity in the region. The most dominant cropping pattern Boro−Fallow−T. Aman occupied about 23% of net cropped area (NCA) of the region with its distribution over 38 upazilas out 42. The second largest area, 19% of NCA, was covered by single T. Aman, which was spread out over 32 upazilas. A total of 93 cropping patterns were identified in the whole region under the present investigation. The highest number of cropping patterns was 28 in Naokhali sadar and the lowest was 4 in Begumganj of the same district. The lowest crop diversity index (CDI) was observed 0.135 in Chatkhil followed by 0.269 in Begumganj. The highest value of CDI was observed in Banshkhali, Chittagong and Noakhali sadar (around 0.95). The range of cropping intensity values was recorded 103−283%. The maximum value was for Kamalnagar upazila of Lakshmipur district and minimum for Chatkhil upazila of Noakhali district. As a whole the CDI of Chittagong region was 0.952 and the average cropping intensity at the regional level was 191%. Key words: Crop diversity index, land use, cropping system, soybean, and soil salinity INTRODUCTION household enterprises and the physical, biological, technological and socioeconomic The Chittagong region consists of five districts factors or environments.
