Title : Preparation of VDC level land use, soil and land capability maps of Chaumala VDC,Kailali Material Type: printed text Authors: D.R Chalise, Author ; A Joshi, Author ; Chet R.B, Author ; B Twanabasu, Author ; N Rawal, Author ; S Amgai, Author Pagination: 345-357 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Available potassium, land capability, use, soil pH and total nitrogen. Abstract: A research was conducted to characterize soils of different land uses to prepare VDC level land use map, soil and land capability maps in August, 2014 in Chaumala VDC of Kailali district. A total of 87 soil pits from different land uses were studied and soil samples from surface soils (0-20 cm soil depth) were analysed for different physico-chemical . Altogether seven land uses were found in the project VDC viz. agriculture, residential, commercial, industrial, forest, public services and others category with forest covering 66.53% and commercial area covering only 0.12% of total land use soil area. pH ranged from 6.2 (slightly acidic) to 7.8 (moderately alkaline). Total nitrogen ranged from 0.02% (very low) to 0.35% (low), whereas available phosphorus from 36 kg ha-1 (medium) to 751 kg ha-1 (very high). Available potassium was low (81 kg ha-1) to medium (349 kg ha-1). A total of thirteen land capability classes were observed in the project area with IAu/1 covering 26% and IIAu/1R covering only 0.07% of the area.

[article]
Title : Soil Fertility Status of Bari and Khet Land in a Small Watershed of Middle Hill Region of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Regmi, Basudev, Author ; Michael A. Zoebisch, Author Publication Date: 2004 Article on page: 38-44 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Nutrient land use, nutrient management, plant nutrients, soil fertility Abstract: Soil fertility is a critical issue to the farmers, particularly where population pressure is high
and agriculture is the main source of income. A study to identify soil-fertility status of land use
systems ie Bari (upland) and Khet (irrigated lowland), which are the two district and dominant
agricultural land use systems in the Hills of Nepal was carried out in Lohorne Watershed, Dailekh
District of Nepal. Soil fertility status of nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P), potassium (K) and
organic matter (OM) is better in Bari than in Khet land. The pH was found to be slightly low, more
acidic in Khet than in Bari land. Root depth and bulk density of Khet land were higher than that of
Bari land. Higher application rate of farmyard manure (FYM) in Bari land and less crop intensity
resulted Bari land more fertile than Khet land.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=77

Title : Soil nutrition distribution in Eastern Tarai of Nepal:A case study of Jhorahat VDC of Morang District Material Type: printed text Authors: R.P Tandan, Author ; R Rai, Author ; L Basnet, Author ; Karki K.B, Author Pagination: 358-367 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: GIS, Jhorahat VDC, land use, soil classification, fertility. Abstract: Food deficit, declining productivity of land and environmental degradation are directly related with the soil nutrition and its properties. In this context, the role of soil properties is considered as basis for sustainable land resource management and planning. The National Land Use Project (NLUP) is preparing land resource map at VDC level and The UN HABITAT is lunched Participatory Land Use Project (PLUP) as pilot resource mapping to prepare quality of land resource mapping with cost effective and effective implementation of resource mapping result. Jhorahat VDC lies in the eastern part of Morang District and occupies 982 ha area…………………………
