Title : Consumer’s willingness to pay for organic vegetables in the kathmandu valley Material Type: printed text Authors: G.D Bhatta, Author ; Subedi, M., Author ; A Ranabhat, Author Pagination: 246-254 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Organic vegetables, vegetable marketing Abstract: Consumers’ willingness to pay for organic vegetables and their level of knowledge has been studied in 2008 at local markets and specialized markets (The Organic Village, Bhat Bhateni Super Market, and Summit Hotel) of Kathmandu Valley by selecting consumers of both inorganic and organic vegetables through simple random sampling and data have been taken using structured questionnaire administered through interview. Three organic vegetables are given emphasis during the study namely tomato, cauliflower and broadleaved mustard. Results reveal that most of the consumers have heard of organic products and some of them consume organic vegetables……………..

Title : Response of Bras Sica Vegetables to Clubroot Disease: Seedling Assay and On-Farm Evaluation Material Type: printed text Authors: Ram Devi Timila, Author Pagination: 136-141 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Brassica vegetables, Clubroot, Resistant, Screening, Abstract: Cultivation of Brassica vegetables specially cauliflower and cabbage is one of the important
income generating livelihood options to the farmers. Clubroot disease (Piasmodiophora brassicae
Woronin) is causing huge losses in cabbage and cauliflower production. Use of resistant varieties
is the easiest, safest and cheapest method to combat with disease. No resistant varieties against
this disease have been identified yet in Nepal. During 2005 to 2007, seedling screening of different
Brassica vegetables collected from local market and Agriculture Research Stations was conducted
under screenhouse at Khumaltar. Likewise, during 2008-2010 a set often resistant cauliflower and
cabbage hybrids from Syngenta Seeds were verified for seedling and adult plant resistance in
screenhouse and in infested farmers' field at Bhaktapur. A scale of 1-6 was used for assessing the
c/ubroot severity. Of the Brassicas evaluated. radish genotypes and broad leaf mustard cv. Marpha
Chaudapat were found resistant. Cauliflower hybrids: Clopton A, Clap/on B, Clarify A, Clarify B
and cabbage hybrids: Teki/a, Kilazol, Kilaherb, Kiloton and Kilaxy were found highly resistant
(score I) while susceptible cauliflower check Milky Way scored more than 3. Cauliflower hybrid,
Tetris was found moderately resistant. Marketable curd yield of those resistant hybrids of
cauliflower and cabbage ranged from 22 to 39 Kg and 20 to 27 Kg per 5 m1 respectively. The use of
those resistant hybrids could be the non chemical tool for the management of clubroot disease.
However, seed should be made available in the market through concerned agencies.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1655 Response of Bras Sica Vegetables to Clubroot Disease: Seedling Assay and On-Farm Evaluation [printed text] / Ram Devi Timila, Author . - [s.d.] . - 136-141 p.

Title : Identification of Best Bet Vegetable Crops for Relay Cropping Under Maize in Potato and Maize System Material Type: printed text Authors: Katuwal, R.B., Author ; P. P. Khatiwada, Author ; T. R. Chapagain, Author Pagination: 396-400 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: cropping systems. economic analysis, maize, potato, vegetables, Abstract: For the identification and developmem of system based technology in potato + maize system,
four vegetables crops nainely cauliflower. cabbage, radish and pea were tested after the
haJVest of potato in the high hi/Js ( 1800·2200 m) outreach research sites of ARS, Pakhribas
during the years 1999-2001. The experiment was implemented in accessible ami nonaccessible
(or partially accessible) to road and market sites using RCB design wit/1 four
replications. Results obtained from the analysis showed a non-significant difference between
maize and potato yields in the system. However, there was significant (P< 0.01) effect of
location on potato and maize yield. The higher tllber ( 12.4 t/ha) and maize grain yield (2162
kg/ha) was recorded at Basallfapur site. In the case of vegetable crops. statistical analysis
detected signijicallt (P<0.01) effect of individual location, year and vegetable species.
However, the interaction between location x treatment, treatment x year and location x
treatmelll x year were showed 11011-signijicant results. The highest yield was obtained from
radish (33.8 t/ha), which was followed by Cabbage (12. 7 t/lf{l) and Cauliflower (7. 7 t/lw).
The lowest yield producer was pea (1.2 tllw) among the vegetables. An economic analysis
{partial budgeting) from the experimental data revealed that the highest net benefit (NB)
returned from cauliflower (Kathmandu local) was Rs. 129,81 61/w in Basalltapur (access to
road and markets) and at Mudhe sanischare Rs. 32,497/ha (no or partially access to road
and markets). likewise, NB obtained from cabbage (Copenhagen Market) at Basalllapur
was Rs. 61.127/ha whereas in Mudhe sanischare was Rs -4123/ha. The negative benefit
obtained was mainly due to the low market price and poor performance of crop growth due
to continuous rain during early stages of crop growth along with disease and insects attack.
The experimental results have clearly indicated that farm income can easily be increased
with the intervention of cauliflower, cabbage and radish in the potato + maize system in the
road accessible areas of the high hills.Identification of Best Bet Vegetable Crops for Relay Cropping Under Maize in Potato and Maize System [printed text] / Katuwal, R.B., Author ; P. P. Khatiwada, Author ; T. R. Chapagain, Author . - [s.d.] . - 396-400 p.

Title : Scenario of Hybrid Vegetable Seed Use in Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Subedi, G.D., Author ; R. B. K. c., Author Pagination: 275-281 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: hybrid vegetables, patented companies Abstract: A market survey was carried out in 200112002 from 25 seed entrepreneurs (Kathmandu-4,

identify available number of hybrid vegetables, their respective prices and hybrid seeds sold
per annum in the Nepalese seed market. The seed entrepreneurs were surveyed with face-toface
