Title : An Empirical Analysis of Resource Productivity of Wheat in Eastern Terai Region of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Bhujel, R.B., Author ; Ram N, Jha, Author ; Bindeshwar Yadav, Author Publication Date: 2009 Article on page: 89-97 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Gross margin, productivity, resource conservation technology Abstract: Different types of resource conservation technology (RCT) in wheat
cultivation have been recently introduced and use of seed cum fertilizer zero
till drill machine is one of them which was used in eastern terai region in
wheat season of 2006/2007. A survey was carried out to study the
productivity of wheat and compare the production between traditional and
RCT method of cultivation. Altogether 31 farmers were interviewed with
semi-structured questionnaires. Model used to estimate the productivity for
both the methods was significant (p cent variation due to independent variables under study in wheat production
of traditional and RCT method, respectively. Farmers used 160 kg seed/ha in
traditional method while in RCT method it was 122 kg/ha. Similarly, they
applied 148 and 137 kg nutrients as a total of nitrogen, phosphorus and
potash in traditional and RCT method, respectively. Average production of
wheat grain in traditional and RCT method was 2456 and 2714 kg/ha giving
average gross margin of Rs 16750.00 and Rs 23301.00/ha, respectively. This
revealed 10 per cent reduction in total costs and 29 per cent increase in return
by RCT method.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=13

Title : Soil Organic carbon stocks estimation and mapping by using geographic information systems in Rautahat District Material Type: printed text Authors: K Sah, Author ; S Lamichhane, Author ; B Silwal, Author Pagination: 368-373 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Crop productivity, field survey, GIS, mapping organic carbon, soil fertility. Abstract: Agriculture is the backbone of Nepal and more than 60% people are involved in agriculture for their livelihood. Soil organic carbon (SOC) is depleting day by day from the agricultural lands due to human activities and soil erosion. SOC is the prime component of soil which governs the soil fertility, soil health, crop productivity and climate change. Conventional methods of determining SOC by farmers interviews and eye estimation is time consuming and less authentic. The application of geographic information systems (GIS) and field survey for SOC estimation and mapping is more accurate and less time consuming…………………….

Title : Efficacy of nitrogen and phosphorus on rice under rice-tomato cropping system at Central Terai Region, Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Shrestha, S., Author ; S Devkota, Author ; B. H. Adhikary, Author ; S Khan, Author Pagination: 163-165 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Crop productivity, grain yield, rice-wheat system sustainable rice production. Abstract: Field experiments were conducted during the rice seasons for two consecutive years (2070 and 2071) in ARS, Belachapi to evaluate the optimal level of nutrient for better and sustainable rice grain production under Rice-Tomato cropping system. Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used with twelve treatments of four N levels (0, 80, 120 and160 kg ha-1) and three level of P (0, 40 and 80 kg ha-1). The plot size was 12 sq. m. and rice variety Hardinath-1 was for the study. The highest rice grain yield (4854 kg ha-1), plant height (108.23 cm) was recorded in 160:80:40: N: P2O5: K2O kg ha-1. Statistically, both grain and straw yield were significantly higher as compared to other treatments………………………
