Using a structured questionnaire and household visits, diversity of mango varieties among home-garden and farmlands of three typical villages each in three broad bioclimatic zones viz. coastal, Eastern Plains and Upper Ghats zones of the Central Western Ghats, India was studied. The study reveale...

A field guide to participatory methods for sourcing new crop diversity.
Farmers have an intricate knowledge of their agro ecological domains. The empirical evidences from Kachorwa (terai) and Begans (mid-hill) sites in Nepal suggest that farmers distinguish domains for rice primarily on the basis of moisture and fertility. Farmers also differentiate the number, relat...

This catalogue of released and promising crop varieties for mountain agriculture in Nepal is the result of the combined efforts of many plant breeders who were closely involved in crop improvement in Nepal from 1959 to 2016. This catalogue aims to compile agromorphological characteristics and dig...
