Title : Effect of sulpher levels on onion (Allium cepa) bulb production in acid soil of malepatan Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikary, Bishnu H., Author ; Ghale, M.S., Author ; B BC Bhoj, Author ; C. Adhikary, Author ; D. B. Ranabhat, Author Pagination: 82-87p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Allium cepa, biomass, bulb production, sulpher levels Abstract: An experiment was conducted in acid soils (pH 5.2) of Agricultural Research Station, Malepatan during the year 1998/99 to 2000/01 to evaluate the response of sulpher levels on onion production. A randomized complete block design with three replications and six levels of sulpher (0, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 kg per hectare) were employed in the experiment. The results revealed that sulpher application was beneficial for plant height and bulb production of the onion crops. 40.94 g of onion bulb per plant and 39.18 cm plant height were produced when 40 kg of sulpher per hectare was applied. The yield of onion bulb was 8.9 t/ha, which was produced when 40 kg per hectare of sulpher was applied. This level found to be significantly different than the other levels of sulpher.

Title : Effects of Different Levels of Agricultural-Lime on Brinjal (Solanum Melongena L) Production in Acid Soils Material Type: printed text Authors: B. H. Adhikary, Author ; C. Adhikary, Author Pagination: 316-320 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: agricultural-lime, brinjal fruit production. soil pH, Solanum melongena Abstract: Field experiment Oil brinjal (Solanum melongena L var. Pokhara Lurki) was conducted in
acid soils (4.13- 4.23 pH) during the years 2001 and 2002 at Malepatan, Pokhara to
evaluate the effects of agricultural-lime Oil the production of brinjal fruits and its effect Oil
soil pH. The experiment was designed in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with
three replications. The plot size was 12 m2
• The fertilizer and manures were applied at the
rate of 100:75:75 N: PzO$: KzO kg/Ira and 25 tom per hectare of compost. Six levels of
agricultural-lime (0 tllra, 1 t, 2 t, 3 t, 5 t, and 10 tlha) were applied as the treatments in the
experiment. The results revealed that significant (P< 0.05) respollse of agricultural lime
was observed Oil fruit length and number of fruits per plant. The fruit circumference was
significantly (P<O.Ol) increased with tire incl'eased level of lime. The fruit yield production
due to different levels of lime was observed significantly contributed in both the years. The
mean yield results indicated a non-significant yield differences among 3t/lta (12.31 tlha),
5t/lra (12.1 t/ha) and JOt/Ira (13.06 t/lta), Soil test results revealed that mean soil pH value
before lime application was observed to be 4.13 pH, whereas the pH value after lime
application was obtained to be 5.34 pH which was almost 29% increased over that year
before lime application. On the basis of brinjal fruit yield alld quality, 3t/lra agricultural
lime is suggested for acid soil of Malepatan. If someone is interested to increase soil pH
without considering cost of agricultural lime, 51/Ira could be applied without affecting
brinjal yield.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=546 Effects of Different Levels of Agricultural-Lime on Brinjal (Solanum Melongena L) Production in Acid Soils [printed text] / B. H. Adhikary, Author ; C. Adhikary, Author . - [s.d.] . - 316-320 p.

Title : Growth and Production of Pineapple (Ananas Comosus L. Merr.) as Affected by Manure and Fertilizer Levels Material Type: printed text Authors: B. H. Adhikary, Author ; C. Adhikary, Author ; S. P. Dahal, Author ; D. B. Ranabhat, Author ; M. Ghale, Author Pagination: 75-79 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Ananas comosus, manure and fertilizer levels, fruit size Abstract: An experimellt on pineapple (Ananas comosus L Merr. ) was conducted at ARS, Malepatan in
acid soil condition ( 4.6-4.8 pH) during the years 1999 to 2003 to evaluate the response of
manure and fertilizers on the plant growth and pineapple production . The experiment was
laid out in a randomized complete block design and was replicated three times. Eigl!t different
levels of fertilizer (NPK) and compost were applied to evaluate their effects on the pineapple
production The results revealed that the manure and fertilizer levels influenced the growth
characters (plant height, leaf, crown and sucker numbers). Maximum suckers ( 1.69 /plant)
were produced wben the crop was supplied with 600: 400: 600 kg per hectare N, P20 5 and
K20 plus 20 ton per hectare of compost. Ma:'Cimum fruit length (10.59 em) and fruit
circumference (29.02 em) were observed at this level of manure and fertilizer application.
Maximum biomass (2.58 kg /plant) and fruit weight (513.33 g per plant) were produced when
the crop was fertilized with 20 ton per hectare of compost plus 600: 400: 600 kg N, P20 5, and
K20 per hectare and were found highly significantly different to other levels of fertilizer
application. The significant response of manure and fertilizers was observed on fruit weight
of pineapple. The minimum fruit weight of 5. 74 tlha which is equivalent toRs. 57,400 /ha, was
observed with the non-treated control crop, whereas the maximum fruit yieliof 11.41 t /ha
which is equivalent to Rs. 1,14, 100.0/ha (gross rerum) was obse1ved when the crop was
supplied with 20 ton per hectare of compost plus 600: 400: 600 kg N. P20 5 and K20 per
hectare where the cost of fertilizer and compost was calculated to be Rs. 75,538.0 /Ita and the
net retum was observed to be Rs 38,562.0 /ha, which was found to be higher than the nontreated
crop suggesting that fertilizer application alone at 200: 100: 200 kg N, P205 and
K20 per hectare could give the highest net- retum of Rs. 75,149.0 per hectare in acid soil
condition of Malepatan.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=466 Growth and Production of Pineapple (Ananas Comosus L. Merr.) as Affected by Manure and Fertilizer Levels [printed text] / B.

Title : Production potential of different pea (Pisum sativum L.) genotypes in acid soils of malepatan Material Type: printed text Authors: Ghale, M.S., Author ; B. H. Adhikary, Author ; B. B. BC, Author ; C. Adhikary, Author Pagination: 249-251 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Green pods, local and exotic pea varieties, production potential Abstract: Eight pea varieties, both local and exotic, were tested for their production potential in acid soils of Agricultural Research Station, Malepatan. The experiment was designed in the randomized complete block design with four replications. The crop was planted in eight-meter square plot. All recommended fertilizers and manures were applied as o basal dose. Two years mean yield indicated that Sikkim Local variety of pea produced the highest pod yield of 8.72 t/ha, which was higher by 179.4% as compared to Early Gaint (3.12 t/ha). lllam Local and Tikot Local produced 6.25 and 6.03t of green pods per hectare, respectively . NLP (3.56 t/ha) and PM-3 (4.77 t/ha) produced lowest pod yield at Malepatan condition.
