Study of Effective Micro-Organisms (Em) and Other Nutrients on Tomato and Potato Under Field Condition at Khumaltar / Sherchan, K. ; G. Malia ; A. Sharma
Title : Study of Effective Micro-Organisms (Em) and Other Nutrients on Tomato and Potato Under Field Condition at Khumaltar Material Type: printed text Authors: Sherchan, K., Author ; G. Malia, Author ; A. Sharma, Author Pagination: 386-390 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: effective microorganisms, nutrients, potato, tomato, Abstract: The use of Effective Microorganisms (EM) and other nutrient sources were studied in tomato
and potato under field condition at Khumaltar. The objective of this study was to assess the
effectiveness of EM and other nutriellt sources including chemical fertilizer on tomato and
potato. The treatmelll combinations were control, N: P: K, EM alone, EM + N: P: K, EM +
Half N: P: K, Compost, EM + Compost and Bokashi. The results indicated that the EM alone
does not seem to improve the crop yield. However, EM together with organic sources has the
highest effect to improve the potato and tomato yields. Highest tomato yield was obtained
from treatment with Compost with EM to an increment of 172% over the control. The
Colllrol gave the lowest yield. Similarly in potato, EM with compost gave 134% advantage
over the colltrol. Highest potato tuber yield was obtained by the treatmellt of EM with ~
NPK and~ Compost {17,153 Kg/ha) in the year 200012001 and by EM with ~ NPK and~
Compost (18,250 kglha) during 200112002. While comparing each treatment with and
without EM, Half NPK + Compost and Compost treatmellts showed positive response to
increase tuber yield. The study suggests that the EM clearly helps to decompose compost
bases faster than the traditional sources and makes nutrients available when sprayed or
incorporated illfo the soil. The beneficial effect of EM on improving yield is visible if it is
supplemented with other organic sources.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=581 Study of Effective Micro-Organisms (Em) and Other Nutrients on Tomato and Potato Under Field Condition at Khumaltar [printed text] / Sherchan, K., Author ; G.

Title : Use of Chemical Fertilizers on Potatoes in Sandy Loam Soil under Humid Sub-Tropical Condition of Chitwan Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikari, R.C., Author ; Sharma, Mohadatta, Author Publication Date: 2004 Article on page: 23-26 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Desiree, Kufri Sinduri, nutrients, potato, tuber yield Abstract: An experiment was conducted at Rampur, Chitwan to study the effects of N, P2O5 and K2O on
tuber yield, quality and leaf nutrient status of potato cv. Kufri Sinduri and Desiree. The highest
potato tuber yields (35.7 and 21.1 t ha -1) were obtained with 150:100:100 and 100:100:100 of
N:P2O5:K2O kg ha-1 respectively of Kufri Sinduri and Desiree. The optimum dose of N, P2O5 and
K2O was 100:50:50 kg ha-1 for both cultivars. Regression of N, P2O5 and K2O doses on Kufri
Sinduri and Desiree explained 78 and 31% variation, respectively, in the tuber yield. Leaf N alone
accounted for maximum variation (76% and 43% by linear in Kufri Sinduri and Desiree,
respectively). Leaf N, P and K, respectively 5.04, 0.29 and 3.97% dry matter was critical for potato
production under humid sub-tropical condition of Chitwan. Present findings suggest that Nitrogen,
Phosphorous and Potassium fertilizers management should be based on leaf analysis for balanced
application of mineral nutrients in potato crops.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=74

Title : City Waste Compost and Sustainability of Rice-Wheat Cropping System Material Type: printed text Authors: Krishna B. Karki, Author Publication Date: 2006 Article on page: 49-53 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Organic manure, plant nutrients, sustainability Abstract: An experiment was conducted on Rhodic Ustochrept soil in Central Hill of Nepal growing
wheat-mungbean-rice in rotation. Grain yields as affected by 28 t ha-1 a of town compost were
compared with the same amount of farmyard manure and N:P:K (120:60:40). NPK produced
significantly higher wheat grain (3897 t ha-1). Other yield results were at par with one another.
NPK produced lowest mungbean yield. After growing second crop fertility seems to be
exhausted thus rice yield indicated no notable residual fertilising effect. FYM and town compost
left noteworthy amounts of P, Ca, Mg and K even after rice harvest.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=46

Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal during 1999/2000. The experiment was laid out in a
split plot design with 4 replications. Plant height, number of stems, fresh
weight of stem and leaves were recorded at 15 days interval during crop
growth period and tuber yield at maturity stage. Kufri Sindhuri was taller
than Desiree at all the stages of plant growth. Increasing levels of NPK
increased the plant height by 15-42 percent. The levels of NPK imparted to a
significant effect on fresh weight of leaves and stems at each successive
stages of crop growth. Kufri Sindhuri responded nitrogen up to 150 kg ha-1
