      abstract = {A field experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field  laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh  to study the effect of integrated management of green  manures and nitrogen fertilizer on the growth of transplant  aman rice (cv.BRRIdhan32).The experiment comprised of three  green manures viz., Sesbania rostrata, Sesbania aculeata  and Crotalaria juncea and 5 nitrogen (N) levels viz., 0,  20, 40, 60 and 80 kg ha-i. Absolute control and recommended  dose of nitrogen (i.e., 80 kg N ha-1) and @ 20 t ha-1 of  well-decomposed cow dung were also included. Growth  attributes of transplant aman rice such as plant height,  leaf area index (LAI), leaf area duration (LAD), dry matter  production and grain yield due to green manures in  combination with 40 kg N ha-1 were statistically identical  to 80 kg N ha-1. On the other hand, cow dung at 20 t ha-1  was comparable with sole green manuies in these parameters  . Growth attributes showed higher values with the  incorporation of green manures in combination with higher  levels of nitrogen. The growth performance of rice due to  using of cow dung at 20 t ha-1 varied and it recorded lower  values than that of 80 kg N ha-i. Growth attributes of  transplant aman rice with green manures S. rostrata and S.  aculeata in combination with nitrogen were at par and C.  juncea recorded lower values. All green manuring crops in  combination with 40 kg N ha' produced the highest grain  yield in transplant aman rice.},
