Mango Diversity, Their Characterization and Conservation in Nepal / Budathoki, K ; Regmi, H.N. ; P. R. Bhurtyal ; N G Pradhan
Title : Mango Diversity, Their Characterization and Conservation in Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Budathoki, K, Author ; Regmi, H.N., Author ; P. R. Bhurtyal, Author ; N G Pradhan, Author Pagination: 110-115 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: characterization, diversification, mango, quality Abstract: £co-geographic survey to identify the highest diversity areas of mango genotype was
conducted during 2000 to 2003 in terai and hill Districts of Nepal. The study o included the
characterization, evaluation and assessment of fruit quality of the genotypes identified in
diversity areas. The resrdts of studies carried out for three years show that Siraha and
Saptari are very rich in mango /and races, which are to. date, are unexplored and umttilized.
These genotypes are extremely useful for future breeding programme to increase production
productivity and quality of fruits. Fifteen local mango diversity sites for terai mango and
seven diversity sites for local hill mango are identified. Ninety-one terai mango genotypes,
thirty-nine hill mango genotypes from diversity villages are characterized. Similarly, sixty
elite terai mango genotypes, are evaluated, propagated and planted at Regional Agricultural
Research Station (RARS), Tarahara as an ex situ conservation site. Some of the local
landraces of mango such as Titulo Kali, Sona, Sindlture etc. have been found with high
commercial value and they could immediately be recommended for commercial ctiltivation.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=475 Mango Diversity, Their Characterization and Conservation in Nepal [printed text] / Budathoki, K, Author ; Regmi, H.N., Author ; P.

Title : Potential options for sustainable land management and intensified agriculture Material Type: printed text Authors: R.M Bajracharya, Author ; K. Atreya, Author ; N Raut, Author ; BM Dahal, Author ; H.L Shrestha, Author ; N.R Dahal, Author ; D.K Gautam, Author ; P Karmacharya, Author Pagination: 111-127 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Agro-forestry, biochar, carbon sequestration, crop diversification, soil quality. Abstract: The soil and land resources play a vital role in the local livelihoods of rural communities as well as in the national economy. With much of the arable land already under cultivation and the ever-increasing demands for food and fiber, agriculture has already moved towards intensification. Yet, producing greater numbers of crops and quantities of food, fibre and other materials on the same parcel of land often leads to soil fertility and productivity decline with overall degradation of soil quality. Therefore, ways and means to intensify agriculture to eN hance productivity without degrading the soil and land resource base have become imperative. To this end, agro-forestry, agro-slivi-pastoral systems, and the adoption of a variety of crop, soil and water management and conservation practices offer potential to deliver multiple benefits without sacrificing the very resource upon which the human population depends………………………..
