Abstract: |
An experiment was carried out at IAAS, horticulture farm to determine the effect of sowing dates in economic return from okra varieties in spring sum'!ler in inner-terai region of Ghitwan Nepal. Five. varieties of okra namely; Anokhi (Ft), Parvani Kranti, Arka Anamika, Shagt.in and K-51 were planted at four different dates(~ March- 1ff' April) at 15 days interval with three replications in split plot design. A case study was also carried out in Gunjanagar VDG of Ghitwan district to compare the cultivation costs of research plot and on farm okra production. The highest net return (Rs 238,495.0/ha) .was obtained from~ March sowing. However, the highest cultivation cost (Rs 98,920:0Jha) required for the crop sown on 1 th March. The highest net return (Rs 273,387. 0/ha) was obtained from Anokhi from ~ March sowing and the lowest net return was obtained from Parvani Kmati (Rs 80,428.0) from 1st April sowing. The highest BIG ratio (2.81) was obtained from Arka Anamika from ~ March sowing. During .case study, 4 different sowing times were identified as major sowing times (1st week of February, 1st week of March, ~ week of March & ~ week of July). The net return was higher (Rs 255, 400.0/ha) from 1st week of February sowing. The highest BIG ratio (2.91)- was observed in the crop sown in 1st week of March due to comparatively higher productivity and lower cultivation cost as compared to 1st week of February. |
