Title : An Assessment of Rainy Season Vegetable Crops Cultivation in Koshi Hills Material Type: printed text Authors: T. R. Chapagain, Author ; P. P. Khatiwada, Author Pagination: 260-266 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: average variable cost, marketing margin, rainy season vegetables Abstract: A case study was carried out to assess the benefit on cultivating rainy season vegetable
crops in the Koshi hills of Nepal. The study was carried out across the Dharan-Tehratlmm
road corridor from Mttlghat (400m) of Dhankuta districts to Basantpur (2200m) of
Tehratlwm districts. Five major rainy season vegetable crops namely: cabbage. cauliflower,
radish, pea and tomato were included in the study. The infomwtion 011 radish and cabbage
was collected form Basalllpur, cauliflower and peas from Sidlmwa and tomato from
Mulghat. Data collected during study were analyzed by using computer software. Maize is
the major altemate crop to the vegetables in rainy season and the net return received by the
famJers from maize production was only Rs. 607 per ropani. In the recent years, cabbage,
radish, cauliflower and peas cultivation after potato han•esting has increased instead of
maize. The net profit from cabbage, cauliflower, tomato radish and peas was found 11 times,
5.5 times, 13.8 times, 20 times, 6.1 times and 6.4 times higher than maize production while
Average Variable Cost (AVC) wasfowzd Rs. 1.17, 2.83, 3.37, 0.64 and 3.33 respectively. The
existing field price was observed profitable 011 cultivation of rainy season vegetables though
marketing margin was considerably high. It can be cone/ruled that the rainy season
vegetable production in hills is highly profitable.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=509 An Assessment of Rainy Season Vegetable Crops Cultivation in Koshi Hills [printed text] / T. R. Chapagain, Author ; P. P. Khatiwada, Author . - [s.d.] . - 260-266 p.

Title : Evaluation of Tomato (Lycopersicum Esculentum L.) Genotypes in Farmer's Field for Rainy Season in the Western Hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Paudel, K.B., Author ; Gautam, P., Author ; Regmi, H.N., Author ; J.N. Chaudhary, Author ; K. P. Upadhya, Author ; P. Dauwadi, Author ; ,Pokharel, D., Author ; B. Khatri, Author Pagination: 422-426 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Diseases, genotypes, rainy season, tomato, yield Abstract: The rainy season tomato has been stressed by various biotic and abiotic constraints. Among
various biotic stresses bacterial wilt, tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), late blight,
altemeria and septoria leaf spot are common where as the major abiotic constraints are high
temperature and high rainfall. Some tomato genot)pes were evaluated for resistallt to
bacterial wilt under glass house condition during 2001 rainy season at Lumle condition.
These different tomato genotypes along with other were evaluated in Gaunsahara (Lamjung),
Tenkilo (Gorkha), Hemja (Kaski) and Chambas (Tanahu) during 2058 and 2059 in plastic
house and open field condition for their yield potentials. The test was peiformed mainly
during rainy season. Some genotypes were found highly resistant to bacterial wilt in glass
house condition. The yield potential of N-162 was found 140 mt/ha followed by LTH -162
( 111. 11 mt/ha) under plastic house. Among the tested genotypes N-162 has produced the
highest fruit yield (83.3 mt/ha) and found to be resistant to bacterial wilt in farmers' field
condition at Kavre district. N-162 id ready to release for general cultivation.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=681 Evaluation of Tomato (Lycopersicum Esculentum L.)

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

Title : Plant Spacing: A Key Husbandry Practice for Rainy Season Cabbage Production Material Type: printed text Authors: Khatiwada, P.P., Author Publication Date: 2000 Article on page: 48-55 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cabbage, hybrid, plant spacing, rainy season Abstract: A field experiment was accomplished to establish appropriate plant spacing for summer season
cabbage production in the rain fed condition of the high hills of eastern Nepal. The experiment
was conducted during the summer of 1997, 1998 and 1999. Five different plant spacings (45-
60-cm, 45- 50-cm, 45- 40-cm, 45- 30-cm and 45- 20-cm) and two varieties, Green Stone
and Green Coronet were tested. The interactive effect between variety and spacing was nonsignificant.
However, among the tested spacings, head yields were statistically higher at 45- 30-
cm and 45- 20-cm plant spacings. There was a positive linear correlation between closer plant
spacing and cabbage head yield. The number of unmarketable heads and the lowest head
compactness was recorded in 45- 20-cm spacing. Spacing of 45- 30-cm was found more
economical. Plant population can be maintained as high as 74,074 number ha-1 by decreasing the
spacing from 75- 60-cm to 45- 30-cm for the rainy season cabbage cultivation in high hills. By
using this spacing, as high as 35 t ha-1 cabbage head can be produced in the rainfed condition of
the high hills.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=93
