Title : Analysis and effect of rainfall distribution for planning and management of rice and wheat cultivation under Bhairahawa Rupendehi condition Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikary, S.K., Editor ; Shrestha, K.B., Author ; G.B Manandhar, Author ; Sharma, P.S, Author ; S Tandukar, Author Publication Date: 2010 Pagination: 339-344 p. Abstract: Rainfall is the major dominating factor for the success or failure of agricultural crops as more than 65% of the total cultivable land in
Nepal is rainfed. In this pape, rainfall data (1977-2000) from National Wheat Research Program located at Bhairahawa, Rupandehi
is analyzed and recommendation is made for efficient utilization for planning and management of rice and wheat cultivation. The
average annual rainfall was found to be 1775 tnm. The monthly maximum average rainfall 584 mm was observed in the month of
July and the minimum average rainfall 5.69mm was found in November. The highest annual rainfall2351mm was marked in 1984
and lowest rainfall1302 mm in 1992. One day maximum rainfall298 mm was noted on 14th July in 1996. The deviation of the
average annual mean rainfall from the long term average rainfall was highest 32.38% in 1984 and it was lowest 1.02% in 1982. Out
of 24 years, 18 years were normal, 4 years were wet and numbers of dry years were 2. Average rainfall occurred in rice season was
89.69% of the total average rainfall (TAVR) where as wheat season bad only 4.3% of TAVR. The study clearly indicates the
importance of rainwater harvesting and its utilization for supplementary irrigation of rice I!Jld wheat crop in rainfed areas.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1032 Analysis and effect of rainfall distribution for planning and management of rice and wheat cultivation under Bhairahawa Rupendehi condition [printed text] / Adhikary, S.K., Editor ; Shrestha, K.B., Author ; G.B Manandhar, Author ; Sharma, P.S, Author ; S Tandukar, Author . - 2010 . - 339-344 p.

Title : Conservation agriculture: A system for sustainable food production Material Type: printed text Authors: G Sah, Author ; G.B Manandhar, Author ; Adhikary, S.K., Author ; J. Tripathi, Author Pagination: 65-72 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Conservation Agriculture (CA), defined as minimal soil disturbance (no-till) and permanent soil cover (mulch) combined with rotations, is more sustainable cultivation system for the future than those practiced these-days. Present tillage system is responsible for the degradation of natural resources and soils. CA can improve agriculture through improvement in water infiltration and reducing erosion, improving soil surface aggregates, reducing compaction through promotion of biological tillage, increasing surface soil organic matter and carbon content, moderating soil temperature, and suppressing weeds. CA also helps reduce cost of production, saves time, increase diversity, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Availability of suitable equipment is a major constraint to successful CA. National promotional program for this technology is needed in present Nepalese context.

Maximum yield in 1990/91 was 3085.2 kg/ha by the application of 5.o cm irrigation at CRI stage with insignificant difference with other treatments and maximum yield of 3144.1 kg/ha was obtained in 1991192 with irrigations of 2.5 cm at crown root initiation stage and 5.0 cm. al booting stage. However 2.5 cm irrigation was not applied at crown root initiation stage due to rainfall of about 5.8 cm……………………………………

Title : Evaluation of plastic-covered environment in cucumber cultivation for mid hill conditions of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: G.B Manandhar, Author ; Adhikary, S.K., Author ; K. B. Poudel, Author ; P. P. Khatiwada, Author ; Paudyal, K.P., Author ; R Rasaily, Author ; Shrestha, S., Author Pagination: 199-206 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Black plastic mulching, cucumber, magnetized water, house, UV-stabilized silpaulin Abstract: Plastic-covered environment was evaluated for three factors: a. plastic house (200 gauge normal, 90 and 120 gsm UV- stabilized Silpaulins); b. mulching (with and without black plastic) and c. irrigation (ordinary and magnetized water) on Bhaktapur Local variety of cucumber at Khumaltar during two planting seasons and years to find an economically viable technology for off-season cucumber cultivation in mid-hills. Overall effect of plastic house and mulching was found to increase the marketable cucumber yield by 5.8 and 3.7 kg, per plot (4 sq.m.) respectively………….
