Title : Evaluation of Different Varieties of Onion and their Transplanting Times for Off-season Production in Mid Hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Gautam, I.P., Author ; Bhogendra Khatri, Author ; Govind P. Paudel, Author Publication Date: 2006 Article on page: 21-26 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Bulb yield, off-season onion, transplanting date, varieties Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at the agro-ecological research site (AER site) of the Regional
Agriculture Regional Station, Lumle, at Deurali in Palpa (1200 masl) during rainy season of
2004 and 2005. The main objective of the experiment was to evaluate the different varieties of
onion and their transplanting time for off-season production in mid hill conditions. Treatments
were four onion varieties, namely LR-241, N-53, Nasik Red and Red Creole and four transplanting
dates as 25 July, 5 August, 15 August, and 25 August. The trial was conducted in RCBD with
factorial arrangement of treatments and replicated three times considering farmer as a replication.
The plot size was maintained 1.4 m2 (1.4 1 m2). Observation was recorded on plant height, plant
stand at maturity, diameter and length of bulbs, neck thickness and yield of green bulbs and green
tops. The varieties showed a significant different only on the fresh bulb production. Transplanting
dates showed a significant difference on the plant height, plant stand at maturity and marketable
bulb production. The highest fresh bulb yield (16.63 t ha_1 observed on the variety N-53. Similarly,
August 15 transplanting date produced the highest bulb yield (15.31 t ha_1) among four transplanting
dates. This novel technology for off-season onion bulb production through seedlings would be good
opportunity for increasing the income of many hill farmers which have no access to low land and
irrigation facility during normal onion production season. The production of green tops in this period
is consumable and easily saleable in the local market. So farmers get extra income from this
technology.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=54

Title : Response of Rice Varieties to Age of Seedlings and Transplanting Dates Material Type: printed text Authors: Mishri L. Shah, Author ; Rambaran Yadav, Author Publication Date: 2000 Article on page: 14-17 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Age of seedlings, rice, transplanting dates Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Parwanipur in
1998/99 and 1999/00 with an aim to find out the alternate management practices to compensate
the loss in the grain yield due to flood. Irrespective of the varieties and transplanting dates, age of
seedlings had no effect on grain yield of rice. But transplanting dates had significant effect on
grain and grain contributing characters. The yield of rice transplanted at 1 Sept was 25.6 and
37.5% less in 1998/99 and 1999/00 respectively as compared to rice grain yield of 14 July
transplanting. Radha 11 registered the highest grain yield of 4086 kg ha-1 in 1999/00 and 2662 kg
ha-1 in 1998/99, which was at par to the yield obtained by Sabitri at the same year. The interaction
effect of the age of seedlings, transplanting dates and varieties were found significant in both the
years. 25 days old seedlings transplanted on 14 July in 1999/00 of rice varieties Masuli and Radha
11, produced statistically the similar yield. Radha 11 was the best among the tested varieties. 25
days old seedlings of Masuli, Basmati, Sabitri and Radha 11 can be recommended to transplant as
late as Sept 1.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=87

Title : Effect of Seedlings Age and Hardening on Spring (March- 'May) Season Cauliflower Production Material Type: printed text Authors: S. Piya, Author ; P. P. Khatiwada, Author Pagination: 334-337 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cauliflower, hardening, marketable yield, transplanting age Abstract: Afield experiment was executed to identify an appropriate transplanting age of seedling and
hardening effect on curd yield in spring season cauliflower production. The experiment was
conducted for two consecutive years at the central fann of Agriculture Research Station,
Pakhribas. The design was RCB in 3x2 factorial arrangemelll with three replications. Three
ages of seedlings (35, 45 and 55 days after sowing) with and without hardening were tested.
Marketable curd yield of cauliflower were found highly significant on ages (p<.05),
hardening (p<.OOI) and interaction (p<.05) of these factors. The highest yield (13.85 t/lta)
was recorded from the hardened seedlings of 45 days old. It can be concluded from the
experiment that hardening has the positive contribution to curd yield and seedlings of 45
days are appropriate for transplanting during spring season production while using an open
pollinated variety.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=554 Effect of Seedlings Age and Hardening on Spring (March- 'May) Season Cauliflower Production [printed text] / S. Piya, Author ; P. P. Khatiwada, Author . - [s.d.] . - 334-337 p.
