Title : Evaluation Of Exotic Temperate Pasture Species At Ars, Dhunche And Sub Station Chandanbari In Rasuw A District Material Type: printed text Authors: KK Shrestha, Author ; NP Bhattarai, Author Pagination: 97-103 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Twenty different exotic temperate pasture species and cultivars were tested at ARS Dhunche 1950 mas! and
Sub station Chandanbari 3250 mas! during 2001-2004. Highly significant different (P<O.OO 1) was found on
dry matter fodder production among different forage pasture species and locations. Among twenty,
seventeen pasture species and cultivars established better and produced fodders at Dhunche. Highland bent
grass produced maximum fodder 43.2 GM and 13.9 DM/ha followed by Chewing fescue Tiffany (39.6 GM
and 12.1 DM/ha) and Tall fescue Demeter (35.0 GM and 10.7 DM/ha). Birdsfoot trefoil Leo produced
maximum fodder ( 40.8 mt/ha GM and 8.6 DM/ha) in case of pasture legume species. At Chandanbari
maximum fodder production was found from Orchard grass Potomac 39.5 GM and 8.6 DM/ha) followed by
Cocksfoot Porto (28.3 GM and 6.2 DM/ha), Highland bent grass (26.7 GM and 6.9 DM/ha) and Rye grass
Kangaroo gold 22.6 GM and 4.1 DM/ha). Fourteen species and cultivars established better and produced
fodder at Chandanbari. The germination performance of introduced forage species and cultivars was better
at Chandanbari compare to Dhunche. Although more number of pasture species and cultivars found very
good germination the performance of establishment and persistent fodder production at Dhunche was found
better than Chandanbari. Four cuttings were taken at Dhunche and two cuttings were taken at Chandanbari.
The seed production was found significant different among pasture species (P<0.05) and locations
(P<0.006). Seeds were collected from fourteen species at Dhunche and Chandanbari. Chewing fescue
Tiffany produced maximum seeds (780 kg/ha) at Dhunche and Tall fescue cultivars were also found good
seed producers average (447 kg/ha). The average seed production of Tall fescue cultivars and Chewing
fescue was 160 kg/ha at Chandanbari.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=283 Evaluation Of Exotic Temperate Pasture Species At Ars, Dhunche And Sub Station Chandanbari In Rasuw A District [printed text] / KK Shrestha, Author ; NP Bhattarai, Author . - [s.d.] . - 97-103 p.

Title : Study On Effect Of Cuttings On Seed Production Of Five Promising Oat Cultivars At Ars, Rasuwa,Dhunche Material Type: printed text Authors: KK Shrestha, Author ; NP Bhattarai, Author ; AK Rajbhandari, Author Pagination: 104-114 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Kamdhenu, Omihi, CDA- I 00 I, Awapuni and 83 INC I 9G3 are promising oat cultivars for more fodder and
seed production at station. Three cutting management practices (0, I & II cut) were studied for their
potential performance on seed production during 2060 to 2063 in this study. Significant different was not
found among five oat cultivars but highly significant different (P<O.OO I) was found among cutting
management practices and years for seed production. More seed production (3.5 mt/ha) was found on zero
cut management followed by one cut (2.7 mt/ha) and two cut (2.2 mtlha) management practices respectively.
Irrespective of cutting management Awapuni produced the maximum seed (3.4 mtlha) and the lowest seed
was produced from Omihi (2.5 mt/ha). The differences on plant height was found highly significant
{P<O.OO 1) among different five oat cultivars, cutting management and years. Awapuni was found the tallest
plant (71.5 em) and the smallest was 83INC 19G3 (52.8 em) Irrespective of oat cultivars zero cut plants
attained maximum plant height (71.97 em) followed by one cut (59.52 em) and two cut management (48.21
em) practices. The crop maturity day was also found highly significant different (P<O.OO I) among different
oat cultivars, cutting management and years for harvesting the seeds. The mean days of harvesting (DOH) of
Awapuni was the earliest (220 D) followed by Kamdhenu (226 D), CDAIOOI (230 D), Omihi (232 D) and
83INC 1903 (234 D) irrespective on cutting management practice. An overall zero cut plants matured early
22 I (DOH) which was 7 and 15 days earlier than I and II cut management practices. The performance of
most agronomic characters on third year was better compare to first and second year.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=284 Study On Effect Of Cuttings On Seed Production Of Five Promising Oat Cultivars At Ars, Rasuwa,Dhunche [printed text] / KK Shrestha, Author ; NP Bhattarai, Author ; AK Rajbhandari, Author . - [s.d.] . - 104-114 p.
