Title : Environment friendly and sustainable rice production Material Type: printed text Authors: Basnet, B.M.S., Author Pagination: 61-63 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Hardinath Agriculture Farm (HAF) in Nepal practiced Sesbania cannabina (Dhaincha) as pre-rice green manure annually in 20 ha for more than 20 years. Besides, the recommended doses of phosphorous and potassium, the total nitrogen requirement was fulfilled by using 50% of chemical nitrogenous fertilizer plus Dhaincha as pre-rice green manure. The average national productivity of paddy in Nepal is 2.4 t/ha whereas, the HAF's was 3.75 t/ha. The HAF on an average was producing 120 metric tons of foundation paddy seed annually with better agronomic practices for the last 20 years with more than I :2 ratio of revenue. Such type of practical long-term experience of integrating chemical fertilizer with the pre-rice green manure in irrigated lowland fields of Terai (93 mast) is the model practice for others. This can be practically said as environment friendly plus sustainable, low-cost successful story and can be replicated in other parts of the world having similar agro-ecological zones.

Title : Promising technologies for increasing rice productivity Material Type: printed text Authors: Basnet, B.M.S. Pagination: 284-287 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Rice is one of the most important cereal crops in Nepal. As per the preliminary estimate of Fiscal
Year 2003/2004. the rice crop is grown in 1.6 million hectare with the production of 4.5 million
metric tonnes and the productivity is 2.9 t/ha .. It contributes nearly 20% to the agricultural gross
domestic product and provides more than 50% of the total calories requirement to the Nepalese
people. The United Nations Organization has also declared 2004. as the "International Year of
Rice ". There are less possibilities of bringing more lands into production. Therefore, we have to
increase the productivity per hectare per day by any means . The promising technologies
generated by agriculture research play the pivotal role. Nepal so far has released and registered
forty-nine (49) rice varieties with full package of practices within the span of thirty seven (37)
years. The modern varieties can express their yield potentiality only when recommended
packages are practiced Quality seeds alone can contribute 15-20% yield. Seed selection can be
done by following the specific gravity principle. Early paddy and Boro (winter) rice can be used
for increasing rice yield by utilizing higher intensity of solar radiation. The system of rice
intensification (SRI) is the other agronomic manipulation which can increase rice yield. However,
we should not forget the environmentally-friendly and sustainability issues while increasing the
productivity and production. Thai is why these days we say "Evergreen Revolution "and not "
Green Revolution "only. It is said "Grow Paddy with Soil Fertility Wheat with Fertilizers "and
also said " Healthy Seedlings are responsible at least for half of the yields ".Link for e-copy: http://nepaknol.org.np/narc/dl/?r=1113 Promising technologies for increasing rice productivity [printed text] / Basnet, B.M.S. . - [s.d.] . - 284-287 p.
