IAEA Research Fellow: I have successfully completed the IAEA Research Fellowship training program on “ Study the effects of crop residue application on soil organic matter dynamics” in the laboratory of Soil Biology and Soil Fertility, University of Leuven, Belgium, during 01^st October to 20^th December’ 2002.

D. From June’ 1992 – September’ 2002:

1. CIDA aided research program(1992–1994): Engaged myself as an associated investigator of the CIDA aided research project titled, “ Potassium studies in Bangladesh soil”. In this project I have conducted the followings:

i) Soil profile Study: Throughout the Bangladesh, we have studied the some Soil Series (With importance of K-bearing minerals), collected the soil samples from different layer of importance, performed the in-situ and laboratory analysis of the collected samples.

ii) Mineralogical study of the different soil fractions sand, silt and clay. With the help of X-ray Diffractometer.

2. FAO/IAEA Coordinated program( 1994-1998) : Engaged myself as an research investigator of the FAO/IAEA Coordinated Research project No. BGD/8040 titled, “Isotope aided studies on nitrate movement in irrigated wheat” during 1994 – 1998.

3. FAO/IAEA Coordinated Research program(1996-2000) : I engaged myself as an associate investigator of the FAO/IAEA Coordinated Research project No. BGD/8895 titled, “ The Use of Isotope Technique on the Management of Soil organic Matter and Nutrient Turnover for Increased, Sustainable Agriculture Production and Environmental Preservation” during 1996-2000.

4. BAAS Award Received: Received the “BAAS Award” from the Honorable President of the Republic of Bangladesh for best scientific paper presentation in section – 1 ( below 35 years age group) during 1998.

5. Bio-fertilizer program(2000 – 2001): I have conducted several field experiments and field demonstrations at BINA Sub-station Magura, to investigate the bio-fertilizer

(Rhizobium inoculum) effects on different legume crops (Lentil, Soybean, Mung bean, Ground nut and Cow pea) and soil during 2000 - 2001.

6. Participation in the final RCM of FAO/IAEA program: I have participated in the final Research coordination Meeting of FAO/IAEA research project No. BGD-8895, held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 26-30 March 2001 and presented the final research report.
