Title : Effect Of Common Carp (Cyprinus Carpio) Stocking Size And Density On Production Of Rice And Fish Under Rice-Fish Farming Material Type: printed text Authors: T. B. Gurung, Author ; H. P. Dhakal, Author ; Wagle, S.K., Author Pagination: 56-64 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Evaluation of rice and fish yield at three stocking density of common cmp Cyprinus carpio
(4000, 5000 and 6000 Nos/ha) in combination of two stocking size (5-10 g and 10-20 g) along
with Sabitri rice was tested in farm er's field at Syanja and Tanahun. In general, 4-5% of rice
field was occupied to dug "trench" as refuse for fish during emergencies. During this study,
water temperature ranged from 27:±2 to 39:±2 °C. . In general, fish showed rapid growth until
first month after stocking then did not changed substantially till harvest in most treatments.
Tiller number in control was less than treatments regardless of stocking number and size of
fish. Rice yield was slightly higher in treatments than in control ranging .fi'om 4. 7-5.8 Mt.lha,
though rice was not planted in trench dug only in treatments. Indeed, rice yield seems to be
compensated due to increased number of tillers in treatments. This might also due to pest and
weed control and rapid nutrient recycling by fish stocked in treatments.
This study demonstrate that production of rice do not decrease with use of rice field as fish
trench. However, rice-fish integration could optimize additional income to farmers through fish
production, which ranged .fi'om 180-395 kglha depending upon stocking density and size of
fingerlings. In treatments fish yield increased with stocking density. Highest fish yield
occurred in treatment with combination of large size (LS: 20g) and highest stocking (HS: 6000

in Integrated management of bacterial wilt of potato: lesson from the hill of Nepal: proceedings of a national workshop / Pradhanang, P.M.
Title : Management of bacterial wilt of potato through community participatory approach in the western hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Pradhanang, P.M. ; Dhital, B.K., Author ; Ghimire, S.R., Author ; T. B. Gurung, Author Publisher: Pokhara : Lumle Agriculture Research Centre Publication Date: 1996 Pagination: 60-69 .p Keywords: Potatoes; Wilts; Plant diseases Abstract: Bacterial wilt (Pseudomonas solanacearum) is one of the most destructive diseases of potato in the high hills. This disease is difficult to manage due to a lack of resistant varieties and the conducive environment in the high hills for long term survival of the pathogen in soil. Lack of awareness of the disease and its management amongst the farmers has further complicated the problem. An effort has been made by Lumle Agricultural Research Centre to manage the disease in traditional upland potato growing areas of the Western hills with community participatory approach. Key components comprise elimination of infected planting material from the villages, seed multiplication in isolated disease free areas, adoption of three-year rotation with non host crops, eradication of volunteer potato plants and farmers' education on crop hygiene and disease management. These were implemented through farmer committees. Experiences show that the approach adopted was technically feasible to manage the disease if the regulations envisaged were followed by all community members. As the reintroduction of the disease due to inter-village exchange of potatoes is the biggest threat to the programme, a strong and effective bacterial wilt awareness campaign in a wider area is urgently needed. Alternative income generating activities such as off-season vegetable production and upland rice cultivation encouraged community cooperation on the programme. Some problems encountered in implementing the programme, potential solutions and areas for further investigation are discussed in the paper.
