| Abstract: |
Rice is the most important cereal crop in Nepal for ensuring food security and enhancing economic growth. The crop is grown in diverse agroecological zones ranging from lowland Terai of 60 mast to 3000 masl of Jumla district (NARC 1997).Based on rainfall pattern and altitudes, Upadhyay (1996) classified eleven rice production and recommendation domains at macro level. At present, the development of varieties and production technologies is based on major rice production domains as described by Chaudhary (2002). At micro level, there is wide diversity in fanncrs' resources endowments, production objectives, agroecological conditions and socio cultural settings for rice production even within the Terai (Gauchan ct al 1997, Gauchan 2001). In addition, fanners used to grow more than 2000 rice landraces before introduction of tnodcm varieties (Joshi 2000).This demands u wide runge of rice varieties to meet lhe farmers' requirements nnd fanners still grow more limn 200 landraces of rice to address their specific needs. |
