Poudel, Author ; P. P. Khatiwada, Author ; Paudyal, K.P., Author ; R Rasaily, Author ; Shrestha, S., Author Pagination: 199-206 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Black plastic mulching, cucumber, magnetized water, house, UV-stabilized silpaulin Abstract: Plastic-covered environment was evaluated for three factors: a. plastic house (200 gauge normal, 90 and 120 gsm UV- stabilized Silpaulins); b. mulching (with and without black plastic) and c. irrigation (ordinary and magnetized water) on Bhaktapur Local variety of cucumber at Khumaltar during two planting seasons and years to find an economically viable technology for off-season cucumber cultivation in mid-hills. Overall effect of plastic house and mulching was found to increase the marketable cucumber yield by 5.8 and 3.7 kg, per plot (4 sq.m.) respectively………….

Title : Effect of Different Doses of ga3 and Nitrogen on Seedling Growth of Trifoliate Orange [Poncirus Trifoliata (L.) Raf.] Under Open and Plastic Tunnel Condition Material Type: printed text Authors: B. Chalise, Author ; Shrestha, R.L., Author ; Paudyal, K.P., Author ; ,Subedi, H.P., Author Pagination: 29-34 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Poncirus trifoliata, Plastic tunnel, GA3, nitrogen and accelerated growth Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at National Citrus Research Program, Paripatle, Dhankuta
during 111 November, 2004 to t" September, 2005 to determine the effect of different doses of GA1
and nitrogen under open and plastic tunnel condition on growth of trifoliate orange seedling. The
experiment was laid out in two factorial split-plot design consisting three replications of each
treatment. The open and plastic tunnel was considered as the main plot factor (Factor-A) and the
combination of different doses of gibberellic acid (GAJ) and nitrogen as sub plot factor (Factor-B).
The treatments were applied in seedlings two months after germination. Seedlings were planted at
J5x/O em spacing in 90 cmx80 em sized experimental plots supplied initially with 5 kg FYM per
plot containing 48 plants. White transparent plastic sheets were used for covering the plant in the
form of tunnel. GAJ was applied as foliar spray at one month intervals while nitrogen was applied
through urea as soil application at two split doses in I'' April and I'' May. Ten sample plants were
selected for the study from each bed From the study, it was found that the growth of seedling of
trifoliate orange was highly accelerated under the plastic house condition as compared to the open
condition. The height of seedling (47.75 em). number of leaf per plant (25.27) and size of seedling
diameter (5. 193 mm) were found highest at 300 days after sowing under plastic tunnel condition.
Similarly, the highest growth of seedling height (48.8/ em), number of leaf per plant (27.20) and
seedling diameter (5.383 mm) were observed in 120 ppm GA1 and 400 kg nitrogen/ha combination
at similar age of the seedling.Effect of Different Doses of ga3 and Nitrogen on Seedling Growth of Trifoliate Orange [Poncirus Trifoliata (L.)

Title : Evaluation of Cucumber Genotypes Under Plastic House Environment Material Type: printed text Authors: K. P. Upadhyay, Author ; Gautam, I.P., Author ; J.N. Chaudhary, Author ; B. Khatri, Author Pagination: 352-358 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: cucumber, genotypes, income, off-season, plastic house Abstract: An experiment was conducted at Hemja ami Lumle during late winter-spring-summer season
in 2003 to identify suitable high yielding cucumber genotypes under plastic environment and
to assess economic viability of the effectiveness of plastic house technology over open field
for off-season cucumber production. Experiment was conducted in a Randomized complete
block design with seven genotypes replicated thrice. The plot size was maintained in 9 m2 (2
rows of 1.5 meter length). The results show a statistically significmzt difference in yield of the
genotypes at Lumle and a highly significant difference at Hemja. Among the tested genotypes,
Mohico Green Long (45.5 t/ha) was found superior to others at Lumle for its fruit yield that was
at par with Rishing Local (39.7 tlha) mul Kusu/e (30.0 tllza). At Hemja, Bhaktapur Local (60.97
tlha) was superior to others for its fmit yield and was at par with Paundur Local (58. I 3 tllw)
and Mohico Green Long (51 .0 tlha). Economic analysis revealed that there was 90.7%
increase in fruit yield and 22.96 % increase in net income from cucumber cultivated under
plastic house tlzan that in open field. This result indicated that the cucumber production
under plastic house is more beneficial than that in open field condition.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=570 Evaluation of Cucumber Genotypes Under Plastic House Environment [printed text] / K.

Title : Participatory Varietal Evaluation of Rainy Season Tomato under Plastic House Condition Material Type: printed text Authors: Pandey, Y.R., Author ; Pun, A.B., Author ; Kalika P. Upadhyaya, Author Publication Date: 2006 Article on page: 11-15 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Participatory, plastic house, rainy season, tomato Abstract: Four tomato varieties namely LTH-61, Avinash-2, NSITH-162 and BL-410 were evaluated in
farmer's field with farmers participation under plastic house condition for yield potential and
other yield characters at Hemja, Kaski (920 masl) during rainy seasons of two consecutive years
2002 and 2003. The experiment was arranged in randomized complete block design with 5
replications, farmer as a replication. NSITH-162 took the shortest period of days to flowering
and first harvest with an average of 36 and 66 days after transplanting respectively. Fruit set
after flowering was highest in NSITH-162 (93.9%) and the lowest in Avinash-2 (83.1%).
NSITH-162 produced the highest marketable fruit yield (89.05 t/ha) and Avinash-2 produced the
lowest (51.98 t/ha). The results of the experiment revealed that the hybrid varieties NSITH-162
and LTH-61 have more yield potentiality than open pollinated variety BL-410 and Avinash-2 an
Indian hybrid variety and therefore NSITH-162 variety could be recommended for commercial
production under plastic house conditionLink for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=41
