The experiment was conducted at the end of July in NHRC, Khumaltar (1332 masl) located at Longitude 27.6485o N and Latitude 85.3253o E situated at Province no. 3, Lalitpur, Nepal in 2077/04/18 to 2077/04/28. The experiment was carried out in Randomised Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four treatments and five replications. The genotypes Trishuli, Chaumase, Semi Light Long and Semi Long Green Bean were used as treatment. Phenotypic traits like Plant Height, Days to maturity, Number of node at harvest in main stem, Flower colour, No of pod per plant at harvest, Dry pod colour, Single pod weight at harvest, pod length, Seed yield per plant, Seed weight per pod, 1000 seed weight, Moisture %, Seed weight per plant(gm), seed weight per pod after drying per plant (gm), seed weight after drying were taken. Plant height was highest in Semi long ligh which is 332 cmt and lowest in Trishuli which is 294.48 cm. Total number of seed was found highest in Semi Long Green 8.6 and least in Trishuli 7. The highest yield was found in Trishuli 2.69 ton/ha followed by Chaumase 2.56 ton/ha, Semi long green 2.33 ton/ha, and the lowest was seen in Semi Long Light 1.51 ton/ha.
ncreasing use of agrochemicals, higher cost, and deteriorating ecosystem health have advocated the requirement to vary external input use agriculture towards safe and sustainable organic production. Current research focuses on the factors affecting the adoption of organic farming by selecting farmers of the Darchula District. This study adopted a sampling technique to pick 62 respondents. From the survey, it had been found that there have been mainly subsistence farmers that mean growing agricultural products for his or her own consumption. Most of them don’t have food self-sufficiency for a year The findings revealed that the bulk of the households were male headed (79.03%) and literature (76%). Most of the farmers had a mean landholding of about 0.58 ha. Most of the farmers were lacking training on organic farming. The foremost problems of the study area were a scarcity of information about organic farming and government intervention. Most of the farmers are practicing organic farming and that they don’t realize this fact. The farmers are able to adopt organic farming in next the five years if the government provides proper training and knowledge about the certification process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
