Title : Economy and market of baby corn in Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: K.P Upadhyay, Author ; M.D Sharma, Author ; Shakya, S.M., Author ; G. O Ferrara, Author Pagination: 432-444 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Baby corn is relatively new and potentially income generating crop. In Nepal, very limited research works are accomplished on this new frontier so far. An experiment was conducted to determine the appropriate combination of baby corn and tomato cultivars in intercropping system, and to assess economics and market potentiality of baby corn. The field experiment was conducted at horticultural research farm of the Institute of Agriculture and Animal Sciences, Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal from February to July 2007. The market study was carried out in Kathmandu market during the experimental period. The experiment consisted of eight treatments laid out in two-factor randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications……………………

Title : Effect of Chemical Treatments and Storage on Quality of Potato Chips Material Type: printed text Authors: Gautam, I.P., Author ; M.D Sharma, Author ; Bhim B. Khatri, Author ; Thapa, R.B., Author ; Kanti Shrestha, Author Publication Date: 2012 Article on page: 41-47 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Genotypes, effect of storage on chips quality, potato, slice treatment Abstract: Experiments were conducted at National Potato Research Programme (NPRP),
Khumaltar (1350 m asl) during the year of 2011 to study the effect of slices
treatments with different chemicals before the preparation of chips and effect of
different storage methods and days for preparation of chips. Potato cultivars
Kufri Chipsona-2 and PRP 25861.1 were used for experimentation to assess the
effect of chemicals on chips and chips qualities before storage. Same cultivars
were used for different conditions and durations of storage to assess chips
quality. Undamaged and apparently healthy tubers of more than 60 gram weight
were stored in ordinary room temperature under dark (26.9 ±1.16 o C) and cold
store conditions at Balaju for 90 days. Temperature and relative humidity of
ordinary storage room was recorded daily during the storage period.
Observation was recorded on chips quality parameters like dry matter
percentage, specific gravity and reducing sugars and freshly prepared chips
qualities (colour, crispness, taste and over all acceptability). The results
indicated that slices washed and dipped for 15 minutes in fresh water was found
as effective as slice treatment with potassium meta bisulphate (slices dipped for
15 minutes in 0.25%) for preparation of fresh chips before storage. On the other
hand, cold stored potatoes for 30 days and on-wards were not suitable for
preparation of chips due to the browning of chips as a result of higher reducing
sugars. Chips prepared from 75 and 90 days stored potatoes under dark at
ambient temperature of genotype respectively Kufri Chipsona-2 and PRP
25861.1 had acceptable chips colour and qualities

Title : Effect of different organic manures and bio-fertilizers on yield of bush- type French Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes Material Type: printed text Authors: Pandey, Y.R., Author ; Gautam, D.M., Author ; Thapa, R.B., Author ; M.D Sharma, Author ; Paudyal, K.P., Author Pagination: 366-372 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: A study was conducted to find out the effect of different organic manures and bio-fertilizers on bush type French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) variety Arka Suvidha during autumn seasons of 2010 and 2011 at the Agriculture Research Station, Malepatan, Pokhara (848 masl) to assess the effects on yield and yield attributes. The treatments composed of different types of organic manures (Cattle manure, Vermin-compost, Bokashi and Poultry manure) and bio- fertilizer (Effective micro-organism and Rhizobium). The experiment was arranged in randomized complete block design with three replications. The temperature during the growth period ranged from 140C to 320 C. The results showed significant variations in different growth parameters and fresh pod yield. Application of poultry manure in combination with EM produced the highest number of branches (6.3), nodes (30.0) and plant height (29.2 cm) flower buds per inflorescence (5.3), longest (11.5 cm) and widest (10.5 mm) pods. Highest fresh pod yield (13.3 t/ha) was also produced by the application of poultry manure in combination with EM and was followed by cattle manure (11.3 t/ha). In general application of bio-fertilizers in combinations with organic fertilizers produced higher fresh pod yield.

Title : Effect of Different Sources of Nitrogen on Yield and Quality of Broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. Var. Italica) Varieties under Gaindakot, Nawalparashi, Nepal Condition Material Type: printed text Authors: S Lamichhane, Author ; M.D Sharma, Author ; S. S. Panta, Author Publication Date: 2015 Article on page: 9-15 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: The experiment was conducted at farmer's field of Gaindakot, Nawalparasi
during October 2012 to February 2013 to evaluate the influence of different
sources of nitrogen and varieties on yield and quality of broccoli. The
experiment was laid out in two- factorial RCBD with three replications. A total
of fifteen treatments with combination of five different sources of nitrogen and
three varieties were taken in each replication. The result showed that the variety
Premium Crop produced the highest (23.70 t/ha) terminal curd yield in
N50%Urea+N50%Vermi (20.30 t/ha) whereas Calabrese produced the highest (9.34
t/ha) auxiliary curd yield in N50%Urea+N50%Vermi (8.25 t/ha). Green Sprouting
produced the highest total yield (25.10 t/ha) in N50%Urea+N50%Vermi (28.55 t/ha).
Calabrese exhibited higher (13.27%) dry matter and the lowest (18.44%)
physiological weight loss of curd in N100FYM.. N50%Urea+N50%Vermi produced more
compact curd while N100%Vermi produced the most appreciable taste, color and
overall acceptability of curd. Premium Crop performed better regarding
compactness, color and acceptability of curd while Calabrese performed better
on taste. Thus, Calabrese along with N100%Vermi or N100%FYM would be suggested
for better quality regarding physiological weight loss and taste while Premium
crop along with N100%Vermi would be suggested for attractive color and overall
acceptability of curd.
