Title : ASSESSMENT OF LOSSES DUE TO FINGER BLAST IN FINGER MILLET Material Type: printed text Authors: BK Batsa, Author ; G. Sunar, Author ; D. Adhikari, Author Pagination: 121-128 p. Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: Plants and Crops:Field Crops and Crop Production Abstract: Field experiments were conducted in 1998 and 1999 to determine the losses in grain yield due to finger blast caused by Pyricularia grisea in different growth stages of fingermillet CV GE 5001. The trials were planted during 2"d week of July and heading took place on 90 d after seeding in both years. Crop stage at which finiger infection took place on 10, 17, 24, 31 and 38 d after heading were considered as 5 treatments replicated 6 times in a randomized block design. Yield and yield components were significantlyinfluenced byfi nger blast 11-·hen infectiont ook place in different stages/days after heading (DAH). The treatments which involved finger infection at early flowering stage (1 0 DAH) had highest decrease in finger length, grain number, grain yield and test weight (14. 4, 56.2, 74.6 and 45.4%) respectively as compared to finger infection on 38 DAH Thetreatments in which disease· appeared on 17, 24 & 31 DAH had similar effects on. the yield attributes under investigation. When finger were infected at later stages of grainfilling i.e. 31 & 38 DAH, similar effects but decrease in the reduction of grain yield and yield components were observed. There existed a· strong linear relationship (R2=0. 99,0.93, 0.99 & 0.98) betweenfiniger·length, grain number, grain yield and test weight and finger age at infection. As the age of fingers increased · reduction in yield & yield attributes due to finger blast decreased. The results suggest that finger infection at later ·stages of grain development (31 & 38 DAH) will not have much effect on finger length, grain number, grain yield and test weight.

Title : Effect of long-term organic-inorganic fertilization on rice yield and soil properties under rice-wheat system Material Type: printed text Authors: Sah, M.P., Editor ; D. Adhikari, Author Publication Date: 2010 Pagination: 366-368 p. Keywords: long-term ; soil fertility organic inorganic rice yield Abstract: A long-tenn soil fertility experiment in rice-wheat system was started in 1980 on slightly acidic loam soils of Regional Agricultural
Research Station, Parwanipur to study the effects of different combinations of organic and inorganic sources of nutrients on crop
yield and soil properties. The experiment comprised twelve different treatment combinations of inorganic N, p and K, and farm yard
manure (FYM) and wheat chopped straw (WCS) in a randomized complete block design. Recent yield data indicated the use of 10 t
FYM along with 50 kg of inorganic N ha-1 produced consistently highest rice yield from 2004 to 2006. The combined use of
inorganic N, P and K application was more pronounced with advancement of years, but failed to produce significantly higher grain
yield over minus P K, minus P and minus K treatments. A sharp decline rice yields was noted in minus P treatment during year
2006. The soil analysis data showed an increase in soil organic carbon, available phosphorus and total nitrogen in FYM and WCS
amended plots. Soil acidity was not increased over except in the plots treated with inorganic N only.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1037 Effect of long-term organic-inorganic fertilization on rice yield and soil properties under rice-wheat system [printed text] / Sah, M.P., Editor ; D.

Title : Organic agriculture in coping climate change- A review of emerging evidences Material Type: printed text Authors: Aryal, K.P., Author ; D. Adhikari, Author ; D. S. Shrestha, Author Pagination: 345-358 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: This review paper attempts to bring together the contribution of organic agriculture to climate change. The paper also focuses on the utilization of local knowledge and traditional skills to adapt to the key consequences of climate change and further raising the issue for future development and research requirements. The research results from various parts of the globe on organic farming and its adaptation and mitigation potential against climate change transitions have been presented. The potential of organic farming, especially on adaptation and mitigation strategy for climate change has been discussed. It has been argued that organic farming has potential to reduce the green house gases, but there is a need for more researches to better understand the organic agriculture approach in climate change management and implementing strategies that addresses the emerging risks associated with climate change.
