Title : ON-FARM VARIATION AND HOUSEHOLD DIVERSITY OF PIGEON PEA LANDRACES IN KACHORWA, NEPAL Material Type: printed text Authors: Joshi, Bal K., Author ; P. Shrestha, Author ; M.P. Upadhyaya, Author Publication Date: 2007 Article on page: 23-28 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Household diversity index, on-farm variation, pigeon pea, quant-qualitativetraits Abstract: Farmers value the diversity because of diverse environments both in production and
consumption. On-farm morphological variation on pigeon peas (2n = 2x= 22 or 4x, 6x?) was
studied at Kachorwa, Bara, Nepal to assess the household categories that have maintained
diversity. Household diversity Index (HDI) of 10 different farmer categories was estimated
based on Shanon-Weaver method. Eighteen quantitative and qualitative (quant-qualitative)
traits were used for on-farm variation and HDI studies. On farm ANOVA was generated on
eight quantitative traits. Highest diversity (HDI, 0.265) was maintained by farmer of
medium wealth category who grows pigeon pea in upland bund. Pigeon pea grown in khet
(low land) bund with Pajawa landrace expressed least diversity (HDI, 0.079). Pigeon pea
growing in monoculture was more diverse (HDI, 0.224) for 18 traits than in other production
environments. Maximum variation was observed in growth habit followed by seed color
pattern. The highest grain yield among the Chanki growers was produced by the farmer of
medium wealth category growing pigeon pea in upland bund. Significance variation among
farmers in quantitative traits indicates the intra varietal diversity in pigeon pea. Diversity
varied with respect to wealth category and production environments. Farmer who has
maximum diversity on pigeon pea could able to receive the higher grain yield. Result related
to where and who maintain the diversity may be useful for development of on-farm
conservation strategy. Possibility of developing good varieties exits using Pajawa and
Chanki landraces.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=23

Title : Study of high altitude pasture in east Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: P. Shrestha, Editor ; Shrestha, N.P., Author Publisher: Lalitpur : NASA Publication Date: 1992 Pagination: 43-51 p. General note: AN: 3051 Keywords: Animal production; Extension activities; Pastures; animals;Oat (Avena sativa L.) & legumes, Nitrogen fertilizer, Rainfed condition, Green yield. Class number: NR-4416 Abstract: Natural grazing is a major source of forage for farmers in the mid and high hills. However, no systematicstudy on natural pasture has been carried out in Nepal. The information available so far is based on the assumption made by rule of thumb. A study was therefore undertaken near Gupha Pokhari and Khamlalung at altitudebetween 1500m and 2900m in the hills of eastern Nepal. The duration the herds spent on the pastures averaged 11.3 h/d in July and fell to 5.9 h/ d in November. However, actual time spent on grazing averaged 7 h/ d in June and fell to 4.6 h/d in March. The average bite rates of adult animals were 50/min for cattle and buffaloes, 48/ min for goats, 47/min for sheep and 52/min for Chauries. Adult cattle, buffaloes and Chauries have bite areas of 8-13 sq.cm. whereas sheep and goats have bite areas of 1.6 sq.cm. The quantity of herbage ingested has been estimated to be 1.2 g/bite for adult cattle and buffaloes. It is lower in the winter (0.9 g) than in the summer (1.9 g), but the dry matter content of the herbage is much higher inwinter (80%) than in the summer (25%). It is estimated that annual production of herbage is about 13000 kg/ha(fresh weight) or 3600 kg/ha drymatter. Herbage intake is about 22 kg/d for adult buffalo and cattle. Levels of crude protein indicate that the nutritive value of herbage is very high at the beginning of the monsoon but falls during the winter. The carrying capacity of the pasture is estimated to be 1.3 livestock unit (LSU) per hectare whereas, stocking area is 6.7 LSU/hac.
