The experiment consisted of three winter onion cultivars of Bangladesh viz. Taherpuri, BARI Piaz-1 and BARI Piaz-4, and five organic mulches, viz. Control (no mulching), vegetables wastes, rice straw, banana leaf and water hyacinth. The two-factor experiment was carried out in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. Results revealed that the parameters under study showed significant variation among onion varieties and mulching. BARI Piaz-4 gave the highest plant height, number of leaves, fresh weight and gross yield of bulb compared to BARI Piaz-1 and Taherpuri. The application of water hyacinth increased plant height, number of leaves, fresh weight of bulb, bulb length and diameter, and bulb yield compared to other treatments. Mulching with water hyacinth showed the best results in respect of on all the parameters under study. The highest bulb yield (12.72 t/ha) was recorded in T4 and the lowest bulb yield (8.97 t/ha) was found in T0. The effect of household organic mulches on yield were in order of water hyacinth> vegetables wastes> rice straw> banana leaf> control (no mulching). Among the treatment combinations water hyacinth mulch in combination with BARI Piaz-4 gave the highest plant height (47.85 cm), number of leaves (14.01), fresh weight of bulb (52.87 g) and gross yield of onion (18.24 t/ha), whereas, the lowest plant height (36.13 cm), number of leaves (6.53), fresh weight of bulb (17.08 g) and gross yield of onion (5.74 t/ha) were was obtained from Tahepuri caultivar having no mulch. Therefore, the combined application of water hyacinth along with BARI Piaz-4 was found to be the best in respect of growth and yield of onion.","PeriodicalId":53074,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Applied Agriculture","volume":"31 12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89745900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There were six treatments: three in north-facing namely <900 meter above sea level (masl), 900-1100 masl, and >1100 masl, and three in south-facing namely <900 masl, 900-1100 masl, and >1100 masl. These treatments were replicated 4 times each in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). A total of 72 soil samples were taken from 0 to 30 cm soil depth in ‘V’ shaped pattern from last week of March to the first week of April. Analysis of soil samples was done in the regional soil testing laboratory Pokhara, Kaski. The altitude range had a considerable effect on soil nutrient status except for phosphorous and potassium availability. Both pH and soil organic matter content were found increasing with the increase in altitude. Soil pH level was found increasing with increase in altitude from 5.62 in <900 masl to 6.70 in altitude >1100 masl in south facing slope. Highest organic matter content (5.76%) was recorded in 900-1100 masl of north facing slope followed by lowest 3.76% in <900 masl in south facing slope. Similarly, highest nitrogen content (0.28%) was recorded in 900-1100 masl of north facing slope followed by lowest (0.18) in >1100 masl in south facing slope. Phosphorus and potassium were found highest in 900-1100 masl of both north and south facing slope. The findings of the research showed that the altitude range of 900-1100 masl and north-facing slope was suitable for mandarin cultivation from the nutrient status point of view.","PeriodicalId":53074,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Applied Agriculture","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84801850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effect of soil potassium fertilization either as sulfate or humate form with or without K2SO4 foliar sprays was studied on vegetative growth, yield and fruit quality of Grand Naine banana plants grown under clay loam soil conditions. The experiment included four treatments as follows: Control (800 g of K2SO4 as soil application), 250 g of K-humate as soil application, 800 g of K2SO4 as soil application + 2 % K2SO4 as foliar sprays and 250 g of K-humate soil application + 2 % K2SO4 as foliar sprays. Each treatment was replicated three times with three plants per each replicate and the randomized complete block design was arranged. Results indicated that potassium fertilization treatments showed a positive effect on vegetative growth parameters, N, P, K, chlorophyll a and b content in the leaves, also improved yield and fruit properties. In this respect, the humate form was more pronounced than the sulfate form. In addition, treatments included K2SO4 as foliar sprays were more effective than those without it. Therefore, the usage of 250 g of K-humate as soil application + 2 % K2SO4 as foliar sprays could be recommended to improve the growth, yield and quality of Grande Naine banana under these experimental conditions.","PeriodicalId":53074,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Applied Agriculture","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91150694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

High sugar diet (HSD) consumption is associated with the development of metabolic diseases such as diabetes and obesity. Dietary fiber has been linked to a variety of health benefits, including obesity prevention, better glucose homeostasis, and control of blood lipid profile. Therefore, we designed this experiment to determine the efficacy of cassava fiber (CF) in preventing the development of diabetes and obesity caused by HSD. Swiss albino male mice were fed with CF in supplementation with or without HSD. In comparison to a high sugar diet group, CF supplementation steadily reduced food intake. Though it was insignificant CF supplementation attenuated the increase in body weight due to HSD consumption. From the intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (ipGTT), it was revealed that CF supplementation improved glucose tolerance after a glucose (2mg/kg BW) challenge and also showed a significant decrease in area under the curve (AUC). Moreover, CF supplementation remarkably lowered the LDL-cholesterol level of the HSD-fed mice. Overall, our present study demonstrates that consumption of a CF-rich diet helps to maintain glucose homeostasis and prevent the development of metabolic syndromes associated with diabetes and obesity.","PeriodicalId":53074,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Applied Agriculture","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82203005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A field experiment was conducted to study the performance of potatoes at the different phosphorous levels and mulch from February to June 2021 in Dhamkane, Bajura district, Nepal. The experiment was arranged in two factorial RCBDs with 3 replications and 8 treatments. Bajura local variety was used. Four levels of phosphorous 0, 50, 100, and 150 kg ha-1 were used and for mulching, silver on black plastic mulch and no mulch (control) was used. It was observed that both mulching and phosphorous levels influenced the growth and yield of potatoes. Plant height (39.90 cm), number of leaves (439.98) was significantly highest in silver in black plastic mulch whereas haulm number was significantly highest in no mulch condition. In the same way, significantly highest plant height (44.36 cm), haulm number (4.15), and the number of leaves (442.10) were found on 100 kg ha-1 P level. The main effect of mulching and phosphorous level was found to increase the yield but no interaction was observed. The highest average tuber weight, yield per plant and number of tubers per plant were found on silver in black plastic mulch. Average tuber weight is highest at 150 kg ha-1 phosphorous level. The number of tuber per plant was highest for silver on black plastic mulch and 100 kg ha-1. Marketable and non-marketable tubers were significantly higher at silver on black plastic (8.55 & 3.1) and 100 kg ha-1(10.45 & 3.46).

This study was carried out to find the soil fertility status of the Dhanushadham Municipality, Dhanusha, Nepal located at 26°52’N, 86o02’E using GPS and GIS Using Google Earth Pro (GEP) and ArcGIS, 61 soil samples were collected based on land use, slope, and aspects. The soil's texture, pH, total nitrogen, available phosphorous, and potassium levels were all measured. Most of the study area (36.35%) has loam soils, followed by sandy loam soil (28.17%). The soil pH ranged from 5.2 to 7.5, indicating that it was strongly acidic to nearly neutral. Soil organic matter (SOM) ranged from 1.14% to 1.83% with a mean value of 1.52% in most of the soil. Total nitrogen was 0.08%, available phosphorus was 120.96 kg/ha, and available potassium was 146.13 kg/ha, respectively. In the study area, total nitrogen was found to be medium, phosphorus found to be high, and potassium was found to be low. To maintain soil nutrient status, organic manure, reduced use of chemical fertilizers, and different soil management practices should be used.

The experiment consisted of two levels of AMF inoculation (AMF-inoculated and non-inoculated) and five levels of Zn fertilizer management. The Zn management regimes were NoZinc = no Zn fertilizer (control); Basal100 = 100% recommended dose (RD) of Zn fertilizer (i.e. 15 kg ZnSO4.7H2O ha−1) added during final land preparation; Foliar100@EV = 100% RD of Zn was applied as foliar spray during early vegetative (EV) stage; Folar100@Rp = 100% RD of Zn was applied as foliar spray during reproductive (Rp) stage; Foliar@50EV+50Rp = 100% RD of Zn fertilizer was applied as foliar spray by equal split during EV and Rp stages. ZnSO4.7H2O @15 kg ha−1 was used for basal application and 0.1% of the same fertilizer was used as foliar spray. The experiment was laid out a factorial randomized complete block design (RCBD) with 3 replications. ‘Serakinkon’, a commercially available AMF inoculum collected from Japan was used in the experiment. The inoculum mainly consisted of Gigaspora margarita species of AMF. It was found that both AMF inoculation and Zn fertilizer management significantly affected leaf greenness (SPAD value), number of cobs plant−1, number of seeds cob−1, weight of 1000 grains, and grain yield (all p<0.05). The highest maize grain yield was obtained from the AMF inoculated plots when Zn was foliar applied during both early vegetative and reproductive stages (50%EV + 50% Rp) or foliar applied (100% RD) during reproductive stage. It appeared that only AMF inoculation boosted 15% maize yield in comparison to non-inoculated crops. Zn fertilizer management increased 16% grain yield over control (no Zn applied). Further research should be conducted on the screening of naturally occurring AMF strain suitable for maize crop.","PeriodicalId":53074,"journal":{"name":"Fundamental and Applied Agriculture","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89803318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
