Effect of planting time on jute seed yield / N.R Acharya    

Public ISBD in Agricultural Research for Development: Proceedings of fourth SAS-N Convention, 4-6 April 2012, Lalitpur / Hira K. Manandhar     Title : Effect of planting time on jute seed yield Material Type: printed text Authors: N.R Acharya, Author ; Chaudhary, B.P., Author ; Gupta, B.K., Author Pagination: 111-112 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: A study was conducted at Jute Research Program, Itahari during 2009/10 to find out the most suitable and profitable date of sowing of jute. Three jute varieties: Itahari 1, Itahari 2 and JRO 524 were planted on six dates: May 29, June 16, June 30, July 18, July 31, August 15 of 2010 in randomized complete block design in three replications. The study revealed that highest seed yield of 900 kg/ha, 700 kg/ha and 933 kg/ha were recorded on May 29 by the varieties: Itahari 1, Itahari 2 and JRO 524, respectively………………… Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1617 in Agricultural Research for Development: Proceedings of fourth SAS-N Convention, 4-6 April 2012, Lalitpur / Hira K.

Jute seed production in mixed cropping / N.R Acharya    

Public ISBD in Agricultural Research for Development: Proceedings of fourth SAS-N Convention, 4-6 April 2012, Lalitpur / Hira K. Manandhar     Title : Jute seed production in mixed cropping Material Type: printed text Authors: N.R Acharya, Author ; Chaudhary, B.P., Author ; Gupta, B.K., Author Pagination: 109-110 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Jute (Corchorus spp.) is mainly grown in eastern terai of Nepal. The area, production and productivity of jute are more or less stagnant for last several years. The sole cropping of jute now considered as almost non-profitable and non-competable enterprise with other crops and only done in small scale for household consumption. So a study was conducted at Jute Research Program, Itahari during 2009/10 in randomized complete block design with seven treatments in three replications to know the most economical cropping system………………… Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1616 in Agricultural Research for Development: Proceedings of fourth SAS-N Convention, 4-6 April 2012, Lalitpur / Hira K.

Management of stem rot disease of jute in the Eastern Terai Region of Nepal / N.R Acharya    

Public ISBD in Agricultural Research for Development: Proceedings of fourth SAS-N Convention, 4-6 April 2012, Lalitpur / Hira K. Manandhar     Title : Management of stem rot disease of jute in the Eastern Terai Region of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: N.R Acharya, Author ; Prasad, R.C., Author Pagination: 118-120 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Jute (Corchorus spp.) is a traditional commercial crop of eastern terai region of Nepal. The existing varieties have low adaptability to changing agro-ecological conditions of the marginal lands and more susceptible to several pest and diseases. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design and replicated three times during 2009/10 including nine treatments for seed yield and seven treatments for fiber purpose. The promising genotype JRO 524 was used. It is revealed from the experiment that the highest seed yield 731 kg/ha recorded in the treatment application of Trichoderma viride @104/ml at 7, 14 and 21 days after seeding (DAS) followed by 7 DAS (666 kg/ha). The correlation between stem rot and seed yield, stem rot and pod per plant and pod per plant and seed yield was measured. Spraying of Bavistin @ 2 g/l water at 60, 70 and 80 DAS produced the highest fiber yield (3.19 mt/ha) and also controlled stem rot disease to some extent. It is also found that there was strong correlation (0.801**) between plant height and dry ribbon weight.

Varietal improvement of jute (Corchorus olitorius and Corchorus capsularis) / N.R Acharya    

Public ISBD in Agricultural Research for Development: Proceedings of fourth SAS-N Convention, 4-6 April 2012, Lalitpur / Hira K. Manandhar     Title : Varietal improvement of jute (Corchorus olitorius and Corchorus capsularis) Material Type: printed text Authors: N.R Acharya, Author ; Chaudhary, B.P., Author ; Thapa, Y.R., Author Pagination: 113-117 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Jute (Corchorus spp.) is a major commercial crop grown in eastern terai of Nepal. Jute Research Program has released two varieties namely Itahari 1 (C. capsularis) and Itahari 2 (C. olitorius) in the year 1999. C. olitorius and C. capsularis are the two important commercial species grown in this region. The existing varieties have narrow genetic bases with low yield potentiality, low adaptability to changing macro agro-ecological conditions of the marginal lands and unsuited to current cropping patterns……………………...
