Drought tolerant mungbean can be grown in rainfed condition in summer which can increase pulse production in Bangladesh. It can be grown in between rabi (winter)crop and T.aman rice when most of the land remained fallow. Moreover, incorporation of mungbean residue can maintain soil helth. Incorporation of mungbean residue showed positive balance of organic matter (OC), N, P, K, S and Zn in soil (Ph.D Thisis of Dr. M.A.K Mian).
