Abstract

For maintaining sustainable agriculture and production of maximum crop yield it is required to add the proper amount of fertilizer on time through observation, investigation and elevation of the interrelationship of the farmer's knowledge and attitude toward fertilizer application. The use of fertilizer is affected by farmers’ knowledge and attitude as they are interrelated. In order to influence the future fertilizer decision of farmers several factors and effects are analysed in this study. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the interrelationship of farmer’s knowledge and attitude regarding fertilizer application in Boro rice production as it is the most contributing crop in Sunamganj district of Bangladesh. Fertilizer performs major role in Boro Rice production. In haor areas farmer chiefly cultivate Boro rice. Proper knowledge and improved attitude have significant contribution to increase Boro Rice production. This review highlights the various factors that increase knowledge and attitude toward fertilizer application which lead to improved social and economic condition of farmers. Finally, the review concludes with recommendation for policy makers, civil society organization, extension agents and researcher.
