Potato is an important cash crop of Nepal.Research was conducted from January to May, 2018 in Jhapa, Bara and Kailali districts for economic assessment potato production terai region Nepal.Pre-tested interview schedule used collect the primary information; moreover, one Focal Group Discussion two Key Informant Interviews were performed.Furthermore, relevant literatures reviewed secondary information.The simple random method sampling within clusters that identified consultation with District...
Sustainable intensification of agriculture is a good approach for reducing the yield gap without exacerbating current condition environmental components, which big challenge in modern world. This review provides summary role and approaches sustainable offer ways to increase crop production create long-term sustainability production. The demand food has continued rise as result world's rapidly increasing population. In order crop/food production, agricultural systems should be intensified by...
This study analyses the gaps and issues in production distribution system of maize seed Nepal. A total 682 households were surveyed 2017 by employing multistage random sampling with probability proportionate to size representing different (tarai hill) agro-ecological zones. Twelve focus group discussions (FGDs) four key informant interviews (KII) also carried out. Results showed that old varieties like Rampur Composite Manakamana-3 are still popular farmers' fields. The cost was about 48%...
Grain legumes play an important role in Nepalese agriculture contributing towards food and nutritional security, nitrogen economy, crop intensification, diversification sustainable farming systems rank fourth terms of area fifth agricultural production. Legumes Research program (GLRP) Nepal collaboration with CGIAR centers works for genetic improvement lentil, chickpea, pigeonpea, soybean, mungbean, blackgram, cowpea, resulting development 35 improved varieties a dozen production...
This study used farm level data to analyze the adoption of improved wheat varieties in Nepal.The seven districts each having highest area coverage their respective provinces was selected.Pre-tested interview schedule collect primary information.The relevant literatures were reviewed for secondary simple random method sampling and 651 samples taken.Descriptive statistics, probit regression indexing applied.This showed that 94.1% covered by varieties, while 3.3% local 2.6% Indian varieties.In...
Invasive alien plant species (IAPS) are a significant threat to agriculture, resulting in crop loss and increased production cost.Because of their detrimental effects on floral faunal organisms ecosystems, they pose biodiversity.There 219 flowering plants native Nepal, 26 which have been reported be invasive with negative environmental impacts, including agricultural production.Four them (Lantana camara L., Mikania micrantha Kunth, Chromolaena odorata (L.) King & Robb.and Eichhornia...
Maize stalk rot complex is becoming a serious threat for maize growing areas of Nepal. A field monitoring was done during crop season (August, 2016) covering 10 farmers each Surkhet, Banke, Dang, Chitwan and Nawalparasi districts. showed highly susceptible reaction to the disease at western belts Dang marked in districts while effect mild Banke Surkhet district. Most plant diseases managed successfully through application bio-control agents, host resistance, chemicals other different...
Background: Menstrual hygiene is very important aspect for adolescent girls and proper menstrual has not been sufficiently addressed in developing countries including Nepal. This study aimed to assess the knowledge on menstruation menstrual practices among girls.
 Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional was conducted studying selected schools of Chitwan district. A total 193 who had flow experience at least three consecutive cycles were as sample using sampling technique. Data analyzed...
Experiments on soybean (Glycine max L. Meril) were carried out aiming to control anthracnose (pod blight) caused by fungus, Colletotrichum truncatum with five treatments represented different fungicidal sprays against receiving no spray three replicates of each under field conditions during two consecutive years from 2012 2013. In 2012, the higher Percent Disease Control (PDC) and Yield Increase (PYI) estimated in plot treated SAAF (Carbendazim 12% + Mancozeb 63%) followed fungicides. The...
Finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) is a gluten-free cereal crop widely grown in Africa and Asia, recognized for its rich bioactive compounds health benefits. It contains high levels of polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins with potent antioxidant properties, which help neutralize free radicals reduce oxidative damage. These also have anti-inflammatory effects, potentially lowering the risk chronic diseases like cancer cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, finger valuable source essential...
Nowadays the world of scholarly publishing is in serious trouble because increasing number predatory publishing. Besides, citation articles from journals also unethical that undermines quality research papers. Because ignorance and/or compulsion getting published a limited time, scholars Universities and young researchers become victim to or hijacked journals. The purpose this paper create awareness among authors, especially novice ones, about publication. Research institutions should...
The stem borer (Chilo partellus Swinhoe) is one of the most destructive pests maize crop. Research experimentations were carried out on to control using conventional pesticides under field condition during summer season two consecutive years from 2015 2016 at Rampur, Chitwan. All used had significant effect (P≤0.05) percent damage and crop yield over control. In 2015, lower (5.3%) with higher (4.52 t ha-1) lowest insect score (1.00) was observed in plot sprayed spinosad 45% EC 0.5 ml L-1...
Maize hybrids can increase production, bridge the yield gap, and boost up domestic production in Nepal. Three-way cross hybrid introduces an alternative to produce low cost seed for resource poor farmers. A study was performed identify promising yellow white maize developed by International Centre Wheat Improvement (CIMMYT), Mexico Rampur, Nineteen three-way with two checks seventeen one check were tested field experiments on 2017 2018. Treatments replicated twice α-lattice design each...
Predatory journals pose a global threat to science. Young scientists and scholars are easy victims of the predatory publications. publications reduce accuracy, reliability, validity scientific works published. The worthless, just waste time, resources, money, efforts. undermine value legitimate In order discourage publications, educational research institutions should set rules for publication in that must be indexed web science, Journal Citation Reports (JCR, Clarivate Analytics, formerly...
Maize is the second most important cereal crop of Nepal. Its growth and production severely affected by Turcicum leaf blight caused Exserohilum turcicum at pre-harvest stage. A total 6 botanicals, 4 chemical fungicides 1 bio-control agent were evaluated for efficacy against under in vitro conditions following poisoned food technique National Research Program, Rampur, The experiment was carried out a completely randomized design with 5 replications. All tested exhibited fungicidal action...
