Title : Development of ipm package for vegetable crops specially tomato in Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Gyawali, B.K., Author ; Colavito, Luke A., Author ; G Thapa, Author Pagination: 410-412 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Attempts were made to identify pest problems of tomato from seedlings to harvesting stage of tomato, and to develop IPM package. Different formulations of bio-fertilizers and bio- pesticides were evaluated. Combined effect of bio-fertilizers and bio-pesticides on fresh yield of tomato var. Srijana was significantly high as compared to rest of the treatments. Some of the practices adopted include mulching, selection of resistant variety (against wilt) as a scion and grafting resistant rootstock (against root knot nematode), seed treatment with microbial consortium, raise seedlings in poly bags, use of solarized soil, bio-fertilizers, bio-pesticides- amended farm yard manure. Regular monitoring and scouting of major pests were carried out using pheromones and traps for need-based control decision using economic threshold level (ETL).

Title : Efficient on farm water use: Micro irrigation and value-chains Material Type: printed text Authors: Colavito, Luke A., Editor Pagination: 437-438 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Value-chain from equiptnent manufacture to output marketing and water source. Development approach
was adopted by Nepal SIMI for the benefit of smallholders and disadvantaged groups of fanners.
Similarly efficient water use for irrigation and domestic use with cost effective proven micro-irrigation
technologies and water storage and distribution technologies has increased the income of farmers
