Title : Analysis and effect of rainfall distribution for planning and management of rice and wheat cultivation under Bhairahawa Rupendehi condition Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikary, S.K., Editor ; Shrestha, K.B., Author ; G.B Manandhar, Author ; Sharma, P.S, Author ; S Tandukar, Author Publication Date: 2010 Pagination: 339-344 p. Abstract: Rainfall is the major dominating factor for the success or failure of agricultural crops as more than 65% of the total cultivable land in
Nepal is rainfed. In this pape, rainfall data (1977-2000) from National Wheat Research Program located at Bhairahawa, Rupandehi
is analyzed and recommendation is made for efficient utilization for planning and management of rice and wheat cultivation. The
average annual rainfall was found to be 1775 tnm. The monthly maximum average rainfall 584 mm was observed in the month of
July and the minimum average rainfall 5.69mm was found in November. The highest annual rainfall2351mm was marked in 1984
and lowest rainfall1302 mm in 1992. One day maximum rainfall298 mm was noted on 14th July in 1996. The deviation of the
average annual mean rainfall from the long term average rainfall was highest 32.38% in 1984 and it was lowest 1.02% in 1982. Out
of 24 years, 18 years were normal, 4 years were wet and numbers of dry years were 2. Average rainfall occurred in rice season was
89.69% of the total average rainfall (TAVR) where as wheat season bad only 4.3% of TAVR. The study clearly indicates the
importance of rainwater harvesting and its utilization for supplementary irrigation of rice I!Jld wheat crop in rainfed areas.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1032 Analysis and effect of rainfall distribution for planning and management of rice and wheat cultivation under Bhairahawa Rupendehi condition [printed text] / Adhikary, S.K., Editor ; Shrestha, K.B., Author ; G.B Manandhar, Author ; Sharma, P.S, Author ; S Tandukar, Author . - 2010 . - 339-344 p.

Title : Rainwater harvesting farm reservoir for supplementary irrigation of rice and wheat crop Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikary, S.K., Editor ; Shrestha, K.B., Author ; G.B Manandhar, Author ; Sharma, P.S, Author ; Sah, S.N., Author ; S.N Jha, Author Publication Date: 2010 Pagination: 329-334 p. Abstract: A farm reservoir having size 27.00 meter 18.00 meter with maximum depth limited to 2 meter at Regional Agricultural
Research Station, Khajura, Banke, Nepalgunj was dug during 2001 . Prior to its construction, the site was identified from a
team of experts including NARC scientists, Indian consultant and expatriate from Bangladesh. The maximum capacity of
pond to collect rainwater is limited to 9, 72, 000 liters. The weekly observations were taken for retained rainwater depth from
June 9, 2004 to May 21, 2006.
It was recorded that maximum retained water depths were 138 em during July and 195 em during September in 2004 and 2005
respectively. Even during dry periods in April, the reservoir was not completely dry and depth of retained water was 15 em.
The rainwater was collected through the conveyance arrangement from the catchment area of about 7.5 ha. The texture of soil
in the reservoir was sandy silt containing 65. 7% sand, silt 24.03% and clay 10.23%. The on farm reservoir was initially
designed to provide supplementary irrigation especially for the wheat crop. Other crops such as rice and vegetables crops
could also be irrigated. From this study, it can be concluded that the site is very suitable and has very good potential for
rainwater harvesting as no other sealing materials were used in th~ reservoir to conserve water. It is proposed that further
studies should be carried out by replicating the reservoirs in farmer's field having similar soil strata, which don't need any
sealing materials for conserving watc;r.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1030 Rainwater harvesting farm reservoir for supplementary irrigation of rice and wheat crop [printed text] / Adhikary, S.K., Editor ; Shrestha, K.B., Author ; G.B Manandhar, Author ; Sharma, P.S, Author ; Sah, S.N., Author ; S.N Jha, Author . - 2010 . - 329-334 p.

Title : Study of the performance of different tillage implements for zero tillage cultivation. Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikary, S.K., Author ; O Budhathoki, Author ; Sharma, P.S, Author Pagination: 270-272 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: A field experiment was carried out at Bhairahawa Agriculture Farm during 1989/90 to study the performance of different tillage implementation for zero tillage wheat cultivation. Maximum grain yield (1.905 MT/ha) was recorded using tractor drawn seeder where as minimum grain yield (1.410 MT/ha) was obtained using animal drawn seeder. However the grain yield and other yield attributes except straw yield data were non significant.
