Title : Preliminary Screening of Advanced Potato Clones against Moisture Stress in Khumaltar, Lalitpur Material Type: printed text Authors: Bhim K. Khatri, Author ; Duryodhan Chaudhary, Author ; Buddhi P. Sharma,, Author ; Shrestha, S., Author Publication Date: 2015 Article on page: 45-49 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Potato clones, variety section, moisture stress, rain-fed conditions. Abstract: A preliminary study on potato cultivars was undertaken at Hattiban Research
Farm Khumaltar, Lalitpur (1340 masl) during the years 2008/09 and 2009/10
to compare the responses of different advanced potato cultivars for their
tolerance against moisture stresses. Completely rain-fed, rice-straw mulching
and frequently irrigated conditions were considered as the moisture treatments
in the trial. Among the assessed clones, CIP 394003.161, CIP 392243.17, CIP
391058.35 CIP 392242.25, Khumal Seto-1, CIP 378711.7, Ca x 27/40-7, CIP

Chipsona-2, NPI-106 and Ca x LBr 40.6 were found performing better than the
check variety Kufri Jyoti in completely rain-fed conditions. In frequently
irrigated treatment, clones CIP 391011.47, Ca x LBr 40.6, CIP 378711.7 and
LBr 40 were superior, whereas in the mulching treatment, clone LBr 40
performed the best followed by 394003.161, Ca x LBr 40.6, CIP 391011.47,
Kufri Jyoti, CIP 392250.56, Primicia, CIP 391598.75, CIP 392236.6, Khumal
Seto -1, CIP 389746.2, 27/40, Des x LBr 43.18, CIP 800947 and 391058.35
respectively in assessed phenotypic, yield and its attributes compared to Kufri
Jyoti and Desiree. This result clearly indicated that the overall performance of
the clone was more under genetic control rather than the environment factors.
Based on the preliminary results, the best performing clones will be further
assessed in multi-locational varietal trials of National Potato Research
programme in the future.

Title : Testing and evaluation of Mini SRR Dryer in Nepal for rice crop Material Type: printed text Authors: G.B Manandhar, Author ; Rabi Rasaily, Author ; Shrestha, G.L., Author ; R.R Bakker, Author Pagination: 19-27 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Drying air temperature, drying cost, rate, moisture content, payback period Abstract: Mini SRR rice seed dryer received from IRRI consisted of a cylindrical bin, an electric blower (2.5”, 320 watt) with a cylindrical support, a rice husk stove and a metallic pipe. Eight tests were conducted during rainy weeks of Ju ly ,2002 three at Kavre Palanchowk, four at Dhanusha and one at Parsa district Grain loaded varied from 145 to 175 kg with moisture content (MC) from 17.8 to 23.5%. Overall drying rate with rice husk as source of heat was found to be 0.45% MC/hour, which is much higher, compared to results of Vietnamese SRR-1 dryer with electricity as heat source. Extrapolation to 13% final MC by simple linear regression showed an association with one another in a linear way (r = 0.83). With 250 kg loading, drying cost for one ton rice was found to be Rs476 for IRRI dryer but in replicated dryer without heat insulation on metal pipe, it was found to be Rs874 due to lower blower RPM. However, computations show that even cost of replicated dryer would be paid back within 10 years with 35 days of operation per year. It showed the possibility of commercializing t he dryer for the small farmers either for seed or for food grain purpose. Maximum thermal efficiency of 22.4% was obtained at 0.6 kg rice husk/hour and 44.7°C drying air temperature (DAT). With DAT from 44.7°C to 49.0°C at Kavre germination rate of paddy varied from 77-88%. The study, also aimed a t enhancing the coverage of early rice in the country, has shown encouraging result.

Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Seed Quality, Grain Protectants, Moisture Content, Germination, Insect Infestation Abstract: An experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Nepalgunj in the years 2007 and 2009 with a view to find out the effectiveness of some locally available non-chemical grain protectants for lentil seed storage. The experiment consisted of eleven treatments with three replications in Completely Randomized Design. The treatments were: Lentil + sawdust 1:l (v/v); lentil + ash 2: l (v/v); lentil + ash 4: 1 (v/v) lentil + fine sand 2: l (v/v); lentil + fine sand 4: l (v/v); Groundnut oil @ 5 ml/kg seed; Sesame oil @ 5 ml/kg seed; Dried neem leaves powder @ 100 g/kg seed; Dried neem leaves powder @ 50 g/kg seed; Household lime @ 10 g/kg seed and Control (lentil seeds only)...........
