Study was conducted to determine the effects of various land configurations on dry matter production, distribution and growth of garlic. Ridge planting method significantly influenced total dry matter (TDM) production and its distribution into root, stem and leaf. It had higher total, stem, root and leaf dry matter, leaf area index (LAI) and crop growth rate (CGR) over furrow and flat methods of planting. Varietal difference in dry matter partitioning and growth of garlic was revealed in this study. The cv. Faridpur that had highest clove weight produced higher total, stem, root and leaf dry matter, LAI and CGR over the other two cultivars.
