Title : Effect of Planting Date on Garlic (Allium Sativwn L.) Bulb Yield in the River Basin Areas of Western Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Subedi, G.D., Author ; K. B. Bhandari, Author Pagination: 359=361 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: bulb yield, garlic, river-basin, western Nepal Abstract: A field experimellt was conducted at Agricultural Research Station, Surkhet (580 m as/) in
four consecutive years ( 1996/1997 to 1999/2000) to find out the appropriate planting date
of garlic suitable for foot hills and river basin areas of mid western development region of
Nepal. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with four
replications. Melpani local cultivar was planted in ten different dates starting from 18'1
'
September to 3f11
' January at 15 days intervals. Plot size of 1.5 111 x 1.2 m was mailllained
and 120 cloves per plot were pla111ed with spacing of 15 em x 10 em. N. P20 5 and K20 were
applied at the rate of 80:30:50 kg/ha supplemented with 20 mtlha compost. Garlic cloves
planted on 1 tf1

(6.9 Mtlha) followed by zod November (6.6 Mtlha) and the lowest bulb yield was recorded
from 3f11

Languages : English (eng) Keywords: family, seedling tuber, true potato seed, tuber yield. Abstract: Seven hybrid true potato seed (TPS) families received from the International Potato Center,
Lima, Peru were evaluated and compared with HPS 11167 and HPS 7167 during 2001 to 2003
to see the performance of hybrid TPS families for seedling tuber p_roduction in di.fferellt agroecological
zones of Nepal. The families were tested in randomized complete block design
(RCBD) with four replications. Tuber yield produced by MF II x IPS 67 (5.12 kg/m2
) and
Atzimba x TPS 67 (3.15 kg!nl) at Khumaltar and Lumle, respectively were respectively
higher than other tested families. In Pakhribas, Surkhet and Taralu:;ra maximum tuber

), Serranax TPS 13 (2.24 kg!nl) and
HPS 11167 (6.20 kglm2

Khumaltar (496.47/nh Lumle (400.85/m2

in Surkhet and Tarahara, maximum tuber number were recorded in Serrana x TPS 13
(352.05/m2

families were statistically significant, Maximum average tuber weights were recorded in LT 8
x TPS 13 in all the locations. None of the families were resistant/tolerance to late blight
(Phytophhora infestans) disease at Lumle. Based on overall performance, TPS families MF II

Title : Study on Off-Season Onion Production in River-Basin Environment of Mid and Far-Western Regions of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: B. B. Rokaya, Author ; K. B. Bhandari, Author Pagination: 367-372 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: mid western region, onion varieties , off season, sets Abstract: A study was carried out to verify the off season onion bulb production technology through
set to raise the income and economic status of the onion growing farmers, during the year
2000/0I and 200I/02, at both on-station and onjanns conditions. Four cultivars of the
normal season onion were tested with 6 replications, in Randomized Complete Block Design.
For both on-station and onjarm experimellts onion sets were produced at ARS, Surkhet.
Among the tested cultivars Pusa Red was found good yielder for set production and matured
at about I40 DAS. Whereas Nasik Red-53 was found about two weeks earlier among other
tested cultivars. In case of offseason onion bulb production, Nasik La/ has performed the
best and produced the highest bulb yields (7864 Kglha), in the year 2000101, whereas Nasik
Red-53 produced the highest bulb yield (5.8I4 Kglha) in the year 200I/02. In case of onfarm
experiment. first year onjarm result showed that Nasik La/ was rite best yielder ( 12238
Kg/ha) among the tested varieties, followed by Nasik Red-53 ( II829 Kg/ha). In the second
year (2001102) onjarm result showed that in all the locations of Surkltet, Dailekh and Doti
Districts. Nasik Red-53 was the best yielder among all the tested cultivars. Therefore the
above study of off-season onion bulb production through sets has identified Nasik Red-53 as
the suitable variety for bulb as·well as for fresh vegetable. Adoption of this identified variety
will be a new income generative farm enterprise because of the high price for bulb as well as
fresh leafy vegetable during the lean period.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=577 Study on Off-Season Onion Production in River-Basin Environment of Mid and Far-Western Regions of Nepal [printed text] / B. B. Rokaya, Author ; K. B. Bhandari, Author . - [s.d.] . - 367-372 p.
