Title : Assessment of factors responsible for yield decline in Toria Material Type: printed text Authors: T.B Ghimire, Author Pagination: 41-46 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Fertilizer, pollinator, toria, yield decline Abstract: In order to assess the factors responsible for yield decline in Iorio (Brassica rapa syn. Brassica campestris var. toria), field survey was carried out at Bardiya and Dang in 1999 and Chitwan and Bora in 2000 and field trials were conducted at National Oilseed Research Program (NORP), Nawalpur Sarlahi during 1997/98-199912000. Seed yield decline in toria has been realized and felt throughout the torin growing areas of the kingdom. Low or no use of fertilizer and manures, declining inherent soil fertility, non-adoption of plant protection measures, use of local cultivars, lack of irrigation facility and weeds were identified as the major factors responsible for toria yield decline at farmers' field. Pollinators (honey bees) and chemical fertilizers (NPK) were the two main constraints responsible for toria yield decline at National Oilseed Research Program Nawalpur, Sarlahi, which reduced the seed yield by 46.53% and 29.48% respectively. Full package of practice increased the toria seed yield and net return by 95.48 and 27%, respectively compared to farmer’s practices. Honeybees were helpful in seed setting and oil production in toria.

Title : Performance of winter oilseed in the river basin areas of Surkhet District Material Type: printed text Authors: B.B Pokhrel, Author ; J.P Dhakal, Author ; S.R Sharma, Author ; RR Chaudhary, Author Pagination: 138-141 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Toria, Genotypes, Seed Yield, Maturity Abstract: Among the oilseed crops, Toria is grown by majority of the farmers of the mid and far western region . Agriculture Research Station, Dasarathpur Surkhet conducted varietal experiments on Toria during two winter seasons of 2008 and 2009. Twelve CVT genotypes received from National Oilseed Research Program (NORP), Nawalpur Sarlahi, were tested in RCB design with three replications to identify the suitable genotypes. Among the tested genotypes from CVT, ACT-2001-24 produced the highest grain yield (791 kg/ha). Rest of the genotypes were found low yielder than the standard check Preeti (751 kg/ha). All of the genotypes were similar in maturity and there was no significant difference. Similarly, four promising genotypes viz. Morang Tori, ACC#9 l 09, ACC#9 I 18, and Unnati were tested in the five farmers' field of different VDCs of Surkhet district. Morang Tori produced significantly higher yield (830 kg/ha) than the remaining three varieties. There was no significant difference among four tested genotypes in maturity period.
