Abstract: |
Maize is the staple crop of mid and high hills of Nepal. Farmers are in continuous search for stable and high yielding genotypes that can perform well under ra.infed condition. In order to identify suitable maize genotype addressing the fanners demand, series of field researches like intermediate yield trial (TYT), coordinated varietal trial (CVT) and coordinated farmers field frial (CFFT) were conducted at the research field of HCRP and the farmers' field of Dolakha and Ramechhap during the rainy season of 20 11 and 2012. The testing materials were made available from NMRP, Rampur. The design was laid out in RCBD with three replications. Twelve genotypes in IYT and CVT each and 6 genotypes in CFFT were tested. The result from IYT, CVT and FFT showed significant variation among genotypes for grain yield and associated traits. In IYT genotypes 07SADVI, TLBRS07F14 and ZM-401 were found superior. In CVT, genotypes Rampur S03F04 and Rampur S03F08 were found promising. Genotypes P501SRCOIP502SRCO, Across9942/Across9944, and BGBYPOP were found· superior in the farmers' field experiment and could be recommended for mid hill regions of Dolakha and similar environments. Similarly, hybrids RML-4/RML-17 and RML-32/RML-17 were found encouraging. |
