Title : Sowing time and nutrient management in cowpea under light textured acidic soil of Central Chitwan Valley, Rampur Material Type: printed text Authors: Shrestha, R., Author ; B. N. Adhikari, Author ; Shrestha, S., Author Pagination: 199-208 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cowpea grain yield nutrient management, sowing time, tropical climate. Abstract: Cowpea (vignaunguiculata l. walp), a short-day plant when sown in rainy season produced excessive vegetative growth and less grain, and usually high incidence of insect pests. introduction of short duration cowpea variety makes possible to grow cowpea in post rainy season under subtropical climate of central inner terai. as a legume, cowpea fixes its own nitrogen, however, there has not been any fertilizer recommendation for short duration cowpea variety in nepal. field experiments consisting of four sowing dates starting from first week of august at 10 days intervals, and three nutrient management: chemical fertilizers @ 20:40:20 n:p2:o5:k2o kg ha-1, farmyard manure 10 t ha-1 (fym), and half dose of chemical fertilizer + 5 t ha-1 fym were carried out in determinate cowpea var. surya to evaluate the optimum time of sowing and nutrient source under subtropical climate of rampur from 2008 to 2010…………………….

Title : Response of Cowpea Varieties to different seeding dates and fertilizer nutrient management Material Type: printed text Authors: M.K Sah, Editor ; P Shah ; Sah, M.P., Author Pagination: 272-276 p. Keywords: Cowpea ; seeding dates spring season farm yard manure response Abstract: Field experiments were conducted in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) during spring
seasons of 2010 and 2011 to study the response of cowpea varieties to different seeding
dates and fertility level at Regional Agriculture Research Station, Parwanipur. Twelve
treatments consisting of three sowing dates (10111 March, 25th March and lOth April), two
varieties (Prakash and Surya) and two fertility level ( 20:40:20 kg NPK/ha and FYM@ 5
tlha) were replicated thrice in a split- split plot design. Two years result indicated that 25 1
h
March sown crop yielded more than 1 01
h March and the yield was significantly higher over
lOth April sown cowpea. Irrespective of varieties and fertility level, date of seeding
significantly influenced plant height, pod length, number of pods/plant, number of
seeds/pod and I 00 seed weight of cowpea. However, Surya variety of cowpea was superior
over Prakash with respect to growth and yield attributes. Both varieties were more
irresponsive to farm yard manure than inorganic NPK fertilizers.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=953 Response of Cowpea Varieties to different seeding dates and fertilizer nutrient management [printed text] / M.K Sah, Editor ; P Shah ; Sah, M.P., Author . - [s.d.] . - 272-276 p.
