Title : On-Farm Evaluation of Potato Yarieties in Chapagaon, Lalitpur Material Type: printed text Authors: Khadka, R., Author ; Y. N. Ghimire, Author Pagination: 174-178 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: evaluation, potato, on-farm varieties Abstract: In order to identify the suitable varieties of potatoes for Kathmandu valley, four sets of potato
varietal trial with ten promising lines, D!!siree, 388572.11(, LT-5, 389708.3, CEZ 69-1, Kufri
Jyoti. Cruza- 118, 388580.6D, 388578.2D and Cardinal as a check variety were tested in RicePofDio
systems for two consecutive· years, 1999100 and 2000/0 I in Chapagaun of l.alitpur district.
Fertilizers were applied@ 100:100:60 NPK kg/ha along with farmers' dose of FYM (20 tlha) as
a basal application during planting. Potato was p/a~~ted in RCBD with four replications (farms)
with a planting distance of 60 X 25 em Among the tested lines, Cru1:1l- 118 produced the highest
tuber yield (31.2 tlha)followed by CEZ 69-1 (25.83 tlha). Cru1:1l118 produced 58% higher yield
over the farmers' variety ( 19.65tlha). Even then fanners did not prefer this variety because of its
white tuber color, delay maturity, low market price and inferior taste. Considering all the
parameters farmers liked CEZ 69-1, which yielded 31% higher compared to cardinal and because
of its red round tuber shape, good taste, and high market price. This variety surpassed the
standard check Kufri Jyoti (23.54 tlha) in tenns of tuber yield. Harvested tubers of CEZ 69-1 were
saved for seed by the cooperator. farmers. These days, they are growing this variety both in
lowland as well as upla11d conditions, and serving as the seed source of the variety for other
neighboring farmers. This variety should be kept under varietal releasing scheme for Kathmandu
and similar conditions.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=486 On-Farm Evaluation of Potato Yarieties in Chapagaon, Lalitpur [printed text] / Khadka, R., Author ; Y. N. Ghimire, Author . - [s.d.] . - 174-178 p.

Title : ON-FARM VARIATION AND HOUSEHOLD DIVERSITY OF PIGEON PEA LANDRACES IN KACHORWA, NEPAL Material Type: printed text Authors: Joshi, Bal K., Author ; P. Shrestha, Author ; M.P. Upadhyaya, Author Publication Date: 2007 Article on page: 23-28 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Household diversity index, on-farm variation, pigeon pea, quant-qualitativetraits Abstract: Farmers value the diversity because of diverse environments both in production and
consumption. On-farm morphological variation on pigeon peas (2n = 2x= 22 or 4x, 6x?) was
studied at Kachorwa, Bara, Nepal to assess the household categories that have maintained
diversity. Household diversity Index (HDI) of 10 different farmer categories was estimated
based on Shanon-Weaver method. Eighteen quantitative and qualitative (quant-qualitative)
traits were used for on-farm variation and HDI studies. On farm ANOVA was generated on
eight quantitative traits. Highest diversity (HDI, 0.265) was maintained by farmer of
medium wealth category who grows pigeon pea in upland bund. Pigeon pea grown in khet
(low land) bund with Pajawa landrace expressed least diversity (HDI, 0.079). Pigeon pea
growing in monoculture was more diverse (HDI, 0.224) for 18 traits than in other production
environments. Maximum variation was observed in growth habit followed by seed color
pattern. The highest grain yield among the Chanki growers was produced by the farmer of
medium wealth category growing pigeon pea in upland bund. Significance variation among
farmers in quantitative traits indicates the intra varietal diversity in pigeon pea. Diversity
varied with respect to wealth category and production environments. Farmer who has
maximum diversity on pigeon pea could able to receive the higher grain yield. Result related
to where and who maintain the diversity may be useful for development of on-farm
conservation strategy. Possibility of developing good varieties exits using Pajawa and
Chanki landraces.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=23
