Abstract Fungicide application is an effective management option to control late blight of potato (caused by Phytophthora infestans ). Field experiments were conducted evaluate the efficacy recently introduced and previously used fungicides on yields in western plains Nepal 2015 2016 crop seasons. Fungicides a non‐treated (NTC) replicated three times randomized block design planted with susceptible cultivar Cardinal. Chlorothalonil, copper oxychloride, dimethomorph, fenamidone + mancozeb,...
Background . Fresh vegetables such as tomato should have low microbial population for safe consumption and long storage life. The aerobic bacterial count (ABC) coliform (CBC), yeast, mold are the most widely used indicators in fresh which be lower than 4 log CFU g −1 consumption. stages of supply chain, postharvest handling methods, crop varieties had significant effects on population. ABC, CBC, were significantly highest (<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
Field experiment was conducted at the research farm of Regional Agriculture Research Station (RARS), Khajura to evaluate influence integrated nutrient management options that could enhance properties soil and yield potato under different climatic conditions Khajura. The started in November 2016 randomized complete block design with seven treatments nutrients using Farm yard manure (FYM), Poultry (PM) Vermicompost (VC). Available N, P K status increased gradually due application inorganic...
