The experiment was conducted at farming system research site, Palima, Tangail on farmers' field during the period from April to July 1986, with six capsularis varieties namely D-154, CVL-1, CVE-3, Atompat-38, Mutant C-36 and one local variety and two olitorius varieties, Fulguni Tosa (0-9897) and a mutant (0M-1) was introduced by BJRI from outside. All these varieties were sown in the sowing time of capsularis to find out the possibility of growing olitorius variety in sowing time of capsularis as well as to study root initiation aspect under flooded condition in low lying areas. Different varieties under test have not shown any significant difference in their varietal characters except in plant height and yield. Significantly higher plant height was obtained from Fulguni-Tosa and OM-1 (266 and 258 cm respectively) over other capsularis varieties. Fulguni Tosa, (OM-1) and Atompat-38 produced the highest yield of fibre and stick; Fulguni-Tosa produced the highest fibre yield (2.06 t/ha). The highest net benefit (Tk 4273/ha) and benefit cost ratio (1.66) were obtained from Fulguni-Tosa followed by the Mutant (OM-1). Root initiation started after inundation by flood water, at 4th day in Fulguni-Tosa followed by other varieties whereas in Atompat-38 rest development started 15 days after flood water inundated the land.
