Title : Determination of optimum dose of organic and inorganic manure for maximum produciton of bean(Phaseolous vulgaris(at Jumla) Material Type: printed text Authors: L.L Shrestha, Editor ; RB Bhujel, Editor ; CB Rana, Editor ; P.M Mahat, Editor Pagination: 6-8 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Bean ; Indigenous Jumla Pooled analysis Significant Abstract: Bean is an indigenous and one of the important crops of Jumla and Karnali region as a
whole. Fanners in Jumla grow bean mostly in uplands and other marginal lands. However,
the area of bean has been extending towards low land after wheat cultivation. Fanners
rarely use manures and fertilizers in bean crop. Therefore, in order to determine the
optimum level of nitrogen, phosphorus, potash & farm yard manure (FYM) to obtain
maximum production of bean; experiment during 067/068 and 068/069 was carried out at
Agriculture Research Station (ARS), Vijayanagar, Jumla. Experiments were laid out in
randomized complete block design in three replications with six treatments (N: P: K kglha

140:75:55+6mt. T5= 30mt.FYM, and T6=0:0:0:+0 (Control). During 067/068, Plant
height, number of pods/plant and yield were found significant (p<O.Ol) while other
parameters like 50% flowering days, 90% maturity days, pod length, no. of grains/pod, no.
of plants/m2
, and 100 grain weight were found non-significant. Similarly, during
2068/2069, plant height and no. of pods/plant were found significant at p<O.O 1 and 0.05 per
cent level. All other parameters were observed as non-significant. During 067/68 the
highest mean grain yield of 1567.33kg/ha was obtained from TS (30mt.FYM/ha)) followed
by T4 (140:75:55 kg N: P: K/ha+6mt FYM/ha) recording an average yield of 1362.67 kglha
and T2 (120:65:45 kg N:P:K kg/ha + 6mt FYM/ha) and the lowest yield 539.33kg/ha was
obtained from control treatment. Similarly, during 068/069 the highest mean grain yield of
1862.33kg/ha was obtained from T4 (140:75:55 N: P: K kglha+6mt.FYM/ha) followed by
T2 (120:65:45 N:P:K kglha+6mt. FYM/ha) which recorded an average yield of
1458.67kglha. The lowest yield of 80 I .OOkglha was produced in control treatment. The two
years pooled analysis revealed the highest mean grain yield of 1612.50kg/ha from T4
(140:75 :55 N: P: K kg/ha+6mt. FYM/ha) followed by the mean grain yield of 1458.83kg/ha
in T5 (30mt.FYM/ha.) treatment. Similarly, the effect of year was observed significant
(p<O.OS) while effect oftreatments in two years and interaction between year and treatment
was found non-significant. Since it is only two years data, the trial needs to be pursued year
by year for better result.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=925 Determination of optimum dose of organic and inorganic manure for maximum produciton of bean(Phaseolous vulgaris(at Jumla) [printed text] / L.L Shrestha, Editor ; RB Bhujel, Editor ; CB Rana, Editor ; P.M Mahat, Editor . - [s.d.] . - 6-8 p.

(Full paper 10 p). Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Grain yield; hybrid maize; plant densities; nitrogen rates and significant effect Abstract: Hybrid maize (RML-4/NML-2) was evaluated for its grain production by the application of different levels of nitrogen (60, 120 and 180 kg N ha-1) at varying plant densities (55555, 66666 and 83383 plants/ha) along with 60 kg P2O5 and 40 kg K2O ha-1 in the acidic soil (pH 5.3) of National Maize Research Program, Rampur, Chitwan during the years of 2008/09 and 2009/10. Factorial randomized complete block design(RCBD) with three replications was employed in the experiment. The crop was planted at the plot size of 18 m2 (3.6 × 5 m). The crop was planted in the month of September and harvested in February. The result indicated a sharp response of nitrogen application to this crop whereas the effect of density was observed to be non-significant. Two years mean yield results showed that highest grain yield (11.10 t ha-1) was recorded when the crop was supplied with 180 kg nitrogen and with 83383 plants ha-1 followed by the crop supplied with 120 kg N ha-1 and 66,666 plant population (10.69 t ha-1). It is inferred that application of high dose of N (180 kg N ha-1) could help increase hybrid maize grain production in acidic soils.

Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Grain and stover yield; maize inbred; nitrogen levels; plant density significant effect. Abstract: Attempts have been made to summarise and highlight research findings on the seed production of maize inbred through the use of different levels of nitrogen to the crop planted at varying densities. Series of experiments on NML-1 inbred were conducted in acidic soil (5.1 pH) during the year 2003 and 2004 at the farmland of NMRP, Rampur to evaluate the effect of nitrogen and plant densities on the grain production of maize inbred. A factorial RCBD with three replications was employed in the experiment for the two consecutive years. Nitrogen at 60, 120 and 180 kg N /ha was applied and plant densities at 55,555; 66,666 and 83,383 plants/ ha were maintained in the experiment. Crop growth and yield parameters were analyzed statistically. The results revealed that crop growth (plant and ear height) was observed to be non-significant by the effect of the crop density; however the effect of density and nitrogen on stover production was observed to be significantly affected. The highest stover yield (7.7 t / ha) was produced by the crop planted at the density of 66,666 plants/ha when the crop was supplied with 180 kg nitrogen /ha. The highest number of kernels per kernel row (24.3 kernels / row) was observed at this level of N and plant densities. The effect of nitrogen and density on thousand grain weight was also found to be significant. Two-years mean result revealed that highest seed yield (2.85 t/ha) was obtained when the crop was supplied with 180 kg nitrogen /ha and plant densities at 66,666 plants ha. Increased seed yield of NML-1 inbred could be obtained with increasing rate of nitrogen application upto the density of 83,383 plants/ ha.

Title : Effects of micronutrients on growth and productivity of maize in acidic soil Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikary, Bishnu H., Author ; Shrestha, J., Author ; B.R. Baral, Author Publication Date: 2010 General note: In: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences. Vol., 1 (1), 8-15, 2010 Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Combined analysis; correlation; grain yield; significant effect; Zea mays L. Abstract: Micronutrients are trace elements which are needed by the maize crop in small amounts and play an active role in the plant metabolic functions in shortage of which show deficiency symptoms and crop yields are reduced, they are therefore to be added into the soil before crop planting or applied directly to the crop to increase maize productivity. In order to evaluate the effects of micronutrients (B, Zn, Mo, S and Mn) on the grain production of maize (var. Rampur Composite), series of field experiments were conducted during the winter season of three consecutive years (2007 to 2009) in the acidic soil condition (5.1 pH) at National maize Research Programme (NMRP), Rampur. Plant growth and yield parameters were studied. Results of the experiments revealed that the treatments had significant effect on studied parameters. Three years yield data following combined analysis indicated a sharp response of treatments on grain production and was observed to be highly significant, however, the response on the maize grain production among the micronutrient treated plots was observed small (5.43- 5.99 t/ha of grains) except with the crop that lacked sulphur nutrient (4.71 t/ha). The highest grain yield (5.99 t/ha) was recorded with the crop which was supplied with all micronutrients (B, Zn, S, Mn and Mo applied in combination with NPK fertilizers at 120:60 40 kg /ha which produced almost 171 % higher grain yield than those with control plot (2.21 t/ha) and 1.48 t/ha of additional grains over NPK treated crop. It is suggested to apply micronutrients along with recommended dose of fertilizers in the acidic soils of Chitwan.

Nutrients not only from chemical fertilizers increases crop yield but also with organic fertilizers. To evaluate the efficacy of organic fertilizers, received from NICO ORGO Company India, an experiment was conducted at NMRP farmland at Hariyali-Tandi on the acidic soil during the year 2011 winter season. Different agro-organic–fertilizers along with other chemical fertilizers and manures were used in the experiment. The experiment was designed with RCBD and replicated three times. Manakamana-3 was the variety planted in the experiment in the month of September at a spacing of 75 cm × 25 cm at the plot size of 22.5 sq. m. and was harvested in second week of February, 2012. Maize growth and yield parameters were taken into the study. The results showed significant effect of Organic-Fertilizers in plant height, stover and grain yield production. The highest grain weight (2.94 t ha-1) was recorded when the crop was supplied with 120: 60: 40 kg N, P2O5 and K2O ha-1 followed by Orgo Blend fertilizers at 617.5 kg ha-1 which was almost 121 % higher than those produced by non-treated crops. It seems that the highest net return of Rs 29,233.0 could be obtained when the crop is supplied only with NPK fertilizers (120: 60: 40 kg ha-1) followed by the crop supplied with Orgo Neem at 150 kg ha-1 which gave the net return of Rs 27555.0 ha-1.This paper discuss and highlights the results of Organic-fertilizer application on maize productivity in detail.
