Outreach research activities in various crops (Rice, wheat and potato) were conducted at
Raghunathpur, Dhanusha and Ekarahiya, Mahottari during 2002 and 2003. The result
differed agro-ecologically in difforent sites in different years. Out of six rice genotypes tested
in normal season. highest mean grain yield (4.9 tlha) was produced by BPI 3-2, BR 4684-13-
1-1-6-3 (4.7 t/ha) and IR 52115-103-3-1-1 (4.5 t/ha). Significant higher grain yield was
obtained in BR 425-189-1-1-2-1 (3. 7 t/ha) and B 6149F -MR-7 (3.6 tlha) in rainfed lowland
areas. Among fine and aromatic rice, all tested lines except GAN-WAN-XIAN-22 recorded
significantly higher grain yield than the local check variety. None of the tested genotypes in
wheat CFFT were superior to check variety ( Bhrilcuti ) at Raghunathpur but in case of
Ekarahiya, all tested wheat genotypes except BL1968 were performed equally well. Likewise,
highest grain yield of 2. 4 t/ha was obtained in Bhrilcuti that was at par with BL 2047 (2.27
t/ha ).Butachlor was noticed effective in controlling of weed in rice. But in case of wheat,
maximum grain yield of 3.5 tlha was obtained with the use of Isoproturan applied@ 1.5
Kg/ha. In FFT on potato, the highest mean tuber yield of 25.5 t/ha was recorded in TPS 67
that was statistically at par with NSf (23.8 tlha) and C 40 (21.5 t/ha).
