Title : Boer Goat (Capra hircus): An alternative breed to increase meat production in Nepal: A Review Material Type: printed text Authors: Panday, S.B., Author Pagination: 311-319 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Boer goat, breeds, crossbreds, kidding rate, live weight gains Abstract: There are about 8.47 million goats in Nepal (MoAC 2009). Most of these goats are local and very adaptive to the different ecological zones of Nepal (Subtropical (Terai goats), mid hills (Khari Goats), Mountains (Sinhal) and Temperate (Changra). There may be about 18 percent crosses between these locals and exotic breeds such as Jamunapari, Barbari, and Kiko. Although the number of the goat population is big, their performances in terms of daily live weight gains were very low (40 to 66 g) as compared with the daily live weight gains of Boer Goats (136 to 250 g) and daily live weight gains of Boer goat crossbreds (100 to 200 g)……………………

[article]
Title : Effect of Harvesting Method and Calcium on Post Harvest Physiology of Tomato Material Type: printed text Authors: Bhattarai, D.R., Author ; Durga M. Gautam, Author Publication Date: 2006 Article on page: 37-41 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Calcium chloride, physiological weight loss, shell life, tomato Abstract: An experiment was conducted in Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science, Rampur, Chitwan
during 2003 to find out the effect of harvesting method and calcium chloride treatment on postharvest
physiology of tomato. Tomato (Hybrid Gootya) fruits with stalk and without stalk were
harvested at breaker stage and dipped in distilled water and different concentrations of calcium
chloride viz. 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75% and 1% for fifteen minutes. Fruit were then air-dried and
stored at ambient condition (24 ± 30 C and 70 ± 5 % RH). Among the tested treatments the least
cumulative physiological weight loss (12.14%) was exhibited by 1% calcium chloride. The shelf
life of tomato fruits was significantly affected by harvesting method and calcium treatment.
Tomato fruit harvested with stalk had higher shelf-life (15 days) as compared to those harvested
without stalk (12.93 days) irrespective to calcium chloride application. The maximum shelf life
was noticed in 1% calcium chloride treated fruits (16.50 days) followed by 0.75% calcium
chloride treated fruits (16.17 days).Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=44

Title : Study on Post Harvest Shelf Life of Fresh Chilli and Drying .Structure Improvement for Red Ripe Chilli Material Type: printed text Authors: Ram Bahadur KC, Author ; Moha Datta Sharma, Author Pagination: 292-295 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Chilli, drying, red ripe, shelf life, weight loss Abstract: Two post harvest studies were carried ·out on chill~ at Regional Agricultural Research
Station, Khajura during winter season 2006 to know the shelf life and identify
appropriate structure of drying for red ripe chilli. In shelf life study higher percent
weight toss trend (16.56, 30.31, 44.98 and 70.96) was observed in cultivar Pusa
Jwala followed by NS 1701 (13.96, 23.08, 33.78, 49.40 & 62.29) after every three
days of interval while the lowest percent weight loss trend was recorded in cultivar
Khairapur Mota (12.86, 20.78, 32.47, 46.66 & 59.12). Cultivar Pusa Jwala reached
early in un-marketable stage by shrinkage and blackish peduncle within 12 days
where as other two cultivar NS 1701 and Khairapur Mota had relatively long shelf life
15 and 18 days, respectively. Significantly higher percent weight loss (37.42, 59.34 &
76.33) was recorded in structure with black cotton sheeted Nang/a covered by
transparent thin poly sheet within nine days. Same level of weight loss was recorded
in black sheeted Nang/a and Nang/a as such after 12 days only. Result indicated that
the maximum shelf life was noted in cultivar Khairapur Mota followed by NS 1701
under ambient room condition. Black cotton sheeted Nang/a covered by transparent
thin polyethylene sheet structure was found the most effective for rapid drying of red
ripe chilli.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=263 Study on Post Harvest Shelf Life of Fresh Chilli and Drying .Structure Improvement for Red Ripe Chilli [printed text] / Ram Bahadur KC, Author ; Moha Datta Sharma, Author . - [s.d.] . - 292-295 p.

[article]
Title : Use of Rice Straw and Black Gram Straw in Fodder Based Goat's Diets in the Hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Chet R. Upreti, Author ; Kuwar, Bahadur Singh, Author ; Panday, S.B., Author Publication Date: 2007 Article on page: 82-87 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Average daily weight gain, black gram straw, fodder tree foliage, rice straw,stall-feeding Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the possible use of crop residue such as rice straw
and black gram straw (Kushauro) in hill goats’ diet. Twenty male and female goats of age 6-
9 months were divided into 4 dietary groups. Animal of first diet groups (D1) were fed with
fodder leaves (Khanyu) only, second diet group (D2) with 20% rice straw + fodder tree
foliage, third diet group (D3) with 20% rice straw + fodder tree foliage + concentrate @ 1%
of body weight, and fourth diet group (D4) fodder tree foliage + 15% rice straw + 5% black
gram straw + concentrate @ 1% of body weight meet to the daily requirement. These rations
were fed to animals of individual diet group for 150 days. Daily feed intake, daily weight
change was recorded. Body weight was taken at the beginning of the experiment, at the end
of experiment and 15 days interval. The result showed that there was significant difference
(P was observed in D3 (19.6±4.33), followed by D2 (12.67±1.38 g/d) and D4 (11.73±1.78 g/d).
The lowest ADG was found in D1 (10.8±1.87 g/d). The result indicated that 20% rice straw
can be used in goat diet with supplementary diet of concentrate @ 1% of body weight, and
foliage of Khanyu as a basal diet. Feeding only fodder tree foliage is not suitable to get
higher ADG in stall-feeding management.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=32
