Languages : English (eng) Keywords: finger millet ; genotypes mid hill varietal trial Abstract: A large number of finger millet (Eleusine coracana Gaertn) genotypes were tested in Varietal
Trial during the normal growlng seasons of 20 10 and 2011 with an objective of identifying
su itable high yielding genotypes of finger millet for the mid bill environment of mid-western
regions of Nepal. A total of 9 genotypes including farmers local were evaluated in varietal
trial in two consecutive years of2011 and 2012 res pectively. Genotypes GE 0116 (3137.41
kg/ba), GE 5001 (271 0.25 kg/ha), Kabre Kodo-1 (2650.30 kg!ha) and K.LE-192 (2632 .20
kg/ha) were superior in grain yield. The combined data revealed that days to maturity, plant
height, bearing heads/m2 and grain yield significantly differed among the tested genotypes.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=882 Evaluation of finger millet genotypes in mid-western hill fo Nepal [printed text] / Anil Pokhrel ; Om Bahadur Oli, Author ; Sashi Ram Sharma, Author . - [s.d.] . - 160-162 p.

Title : Identification and dissemination of high yielding varieties of quality protein maize in the river basin areas of mid western hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Anil Pokhrel ; Keshav Raj Pokhrel ; Gam Bahadur Pun ; Nain Singh Chhetri ; Jhalak Prasad Dhakal ; Tara bahadur Ghimire, Author ; Chitra Bahadur Kunwar, Author Pagination: 28-32 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Maize ; QPM CVT CFFT Abstract: Maize (Zea mays L.) is the important cereal crop in Nepal and the main stable food crop for
the hill people. Quality Protein Maize (QPM) is maize with high nutritive value of endosperm
protein with twice the content of limiting amino acids lysine and tryptophan compared to
normal maize. Replacing the normal maize by QPM is the most effective and attractive
measure to meet protein needs and rise human nutritional status of the hill people.
Considering these facts a series of experiments, Coordinated Varietal Trial (CVT) and
Coordinated Farmers Field Trial (CFFT) at station and its outreach sites (Ramghat, Maintada
and Gumi) of ARS, Surkhet were conducted during the normal growing seasons of 20 ll and
2012 with the objectives of identification and dissemination of high yielding QPM varieties in
the river basin areas of mid-western hill of Nepal. A total of 13 and 5 QPM genotypes with
farmer's variety were evaluated in CVT and CFFT in two consecutive years of20 11 and 2012
respectively. Out of 14 genotypes tested under CVT, genotypes: S03 TL YQ-AB-02 (3295
kg/ha), Poshilo Makai-1 (3209 kg/ha) and Rampur S03-FQ02 (2998 kglha) were superior for
grain yield and husk cover but were non-significant with farmers variety (3233 kg/ha).
Similarly in CFFT, out of 5 QPM genotypes tested, genotypes: 303-TLYQ-AB-01 (3277
kg/ha) and S03-TL YQ-AB-02 (3071 kg/ha) were superior in grain yield but were found nonsignificant

Title : Maximizing upland rice yield through varietal and agronomic interventions in mid hill of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Sashi Ram Sharma ; Bikash Ghimire, Author ; Om Bahadur Oli, Author ; Anil Pokhrel, Author Pagination: 214-218 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: upland rice ; variety mixed crop nutrient Abstract: Subsistence farmers mainly grow rice in upl ands condition and the area under this system is
about 8% of the total rice area in Nepal. This crop has a high socio-economic importance in
sloppy up lands of mid hills particularly in mid and far western regions of Nepal. There is great
potentiality to increase the productivity of upland rice through development and extension of
suitable variety along with appropriate improved agronomic management practices. Therefore,
different vari etal and agronomic management studies were done in two consecutive years of
2011 and l 012 at Agricu lture Research Station, Dailekh to identify high yielding varieties and
appropriate improved agronomic managements. Each of the trail was conducted in three
replicated randomized compete block design. Signifi cant grain yield variation was recorded
among the varieties evaluated on-station and on-farm. Pakhogunde produced highest grain

farmer's field Ghaiya-2 (2944 kg/ha), Pakhojoro (2778 kg/ha), Pakhogunde and Dhanpahelo

Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Rice ; variety seeding date plant geometry Abstract: Rice production would be major concem in recent years due to changing climatic conditions.
With the objective of identifying best seeding date with best variety and plant geometry for rice
cultivation in Mid Westem Hill, Nepal to address climate change, an experiment was conducted
in two years (20 11-20 12) at Agriculture Research Station, Dailekh. Three rice varieties namely
Khumal-1 0, NR-1 0585-B-B-4-3-2 and NR-1 0591-B-B-4-3-3 were seeded in four dates from
May-27 to Jully-11 in fifteen days interval and then transplanted 25 days old seedlings from
June-24 to August-7 with three plant geometries of 20cmx l5cm, 20cmx20cm and 20cm><25cm.
The design was split split-plot design with three replications. The results showed that interaction
effect of date of seeding, variety and plant geometry on grain yield of rice highly significant.
NR-10585-B-B-4-3-2 (8.8 t ha- 1
) and Khumal-10 (7.5 t ha- 1
) produced highest yield when
seeded on May-27 and then after yield significantly reduced. The seeding date was highly
significant for grain yield (7.8 t ha- 1
- 1.6 t ha- 1
) . The interaction effect of date of seeding and
plant geometry was observed highly significant for grain yield where the plant geometry
20cmx 15cm produced highest grain yield (8.0 t ha- 1
) when seeded on May-27 and transplanted
on Jw1e-24. It can be concluded that the rice variety NR-1 0585-B-B-4-3-2 produced highest
grain yield (8.9 t ha- 1
