Modified Cellar Store: an Efficient and Economically Sustainable Means for Storage of Mandarin in Nepal / Paudel, K.B. ; Regmi, H.N.
Title : Modified Cellar Store: an Efficient and Economically Sustainable Means for Storage of Mandarin in Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Paudel, K.B., Author ; Regmi, H.N., Author Pagination: 134-140 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Mandarin, modified cellar store, garlic extract, shelf life Abstract: The cellar store technology was introduced during 1977-78. However, the full potential of
this technology has yet to be utilized. The modified cellar store having precooling chamber
had been designed by the use of local material. Therefore minimize the cost of construction
and increase efficiency of cellar store, construction ti01711S and design had been assessed,
recommended and disseminated. Studies conducted during 2058 and 2059 (B.S) at Regional
Agriculture Research Stations (RARS), Lumle in split-split RCBD replicated thrice having
factorial arrangemellfs of factor-A (stalk level: the fruit with stalk and withollt stalk); factor-B
(the fruit color, fruits 50 %and 100 %orange peal color) and the factor-C(the treatmellfs)
and verified within its Research command Area. (RCA) at Mazum, Palpa revealed that the
mandarinfmits can be stored up to 120 days in modified cellar store, having maximum loss
of 23 % in weight and 15 % in number. The shelf life of mandarin orange has been found
effected by factor-A. factor-B and factor-C in fmit year. However, the effect factor A was
insignificant in 2nd year where as the effect of factor-B and factor-C were highly significallf
in both the years. The shelf life of mandarin orange could be increased by maintaining the
orchard sanitation. Also rite blue mould could be managed by the use of garlic extract
solution during storage.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=480 Modified Cellar Store: an Efficient and Economically Sustainable Means for Storage of Mandarin in Nepal [printed text] / Paudel, K.B., Author ; Regmi, H.N., Author . - [s.d.] . - 134-140 p.

Title : Farmers' Acceptance Situation of Diffused Light Storage Technology for Seed Potatoes in the Hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Dhital, B.K., Author Pagination: 221-230 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Diffused light storage, potato store, seed potatoes, storage technology Abstract: A field survey was conducted in September and November 1997 and May 1998 in the Eastem,
Central and We stem hills of Nepal respectively to study the adoption situation of diffused light
storage ( DLS) of seed potatoes and famzers' experiences regarding the DLS technology. The
survey was concentrated in the areas where the DLS was demonstrated previously focusing
011 two dimensions, i.e. (i) adoption of DLS technology by individual farmers or groups of
farmers where a demonstration was made and (ii) the diffusion of the technology around from
its demonstration site. Adoption of DLS technology was clearly a very slow process and took a
long time from initial awareness to the final decision making stage. Overall, tlte adoption of
technology was minimal. Out of 16 Community Seed Potato Stores (CSPS) surveyed, none of
tltem were found successful. The DLS as technology however was adopted mainly in three
sites and 28% of the illlerviewed farmers (79 out of 278) had adopted the technology fully or
partially. Adoption was concentrated near the demonstration sites and it was unlikely to find
the adoption of the technology in areas where it has not been demonstrated. Most adopters did
not make special stntctures for this purpose but used space available in cattle sheds and
farmhoitses instead This paper summarizes the reasons for adoption and non-adoption of the
technology under various environments and discusses its implications for the further
promotion of the technology in Nepal.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=500 Farmers' Acceptance Situation of Diffused Light Storage Technology for Seed Potatoes in the Hills of Nepal [printed text] / Dhital, B.K., Author . - [s.d.] . - 221-230 p.
