“…It is estimated that sundried radish has an increased amount of sucrose and proline as well as branched-chain amino acids (Kumakura et al, 2017). Whereas, the sinki consists of a good amount of organic acids, Ca, Fe, and K (Tamang and Sarkar, 1993;Khadka and Lama, 2020). Moreover, the young plants removed by thinning are used as leafy vegetables.…”

For the quantitative evaluation of the efficacy of Nitrogen through different plant nutrient sources in the growth and yield of radish, the field experiment was conducted from March 2020 to June 2020 in an Inceptisol with sandy loam soil of the research field of G. P. Koirala College of Agriculture and Research Centre, Gothgaun, Morang, Nepal. The experiment was carried out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with eight treatments (Biogas Byproduct, Poultry Manure, Goat Manure, Farmyard Manure, Vermicompost, Packaged Organic Manure, Recommended Dose of Chemical Fertilizer, and Control) and four replications. Forty Day (released in 1994 AD) variety of radish was used as a test crop. The recommended 100 kg N per hectare was supplied from each treatment, calculated based on the nitrogen content of each nutrient source. Results showed that there was a significant difference in almost all studied parameters from all treatments over control (P≤ 0.05). The highest total fresh biomass yield (123.415 Mt/ha) and highest delta fresh shoot yield (22.806 Mt/ha) were recorded from the application of a recommended dose of fertilizer, and the highest delta fresh root yield (30.127 Mt/ha) was obtained from the application of FYM. The experiment suggests that the application of FYM significantly increased root yield and was positively correlated with other parameters, which might be a good alternative for chemical fertilizers.

“…Moisture, carbohydrates, crude ber content is lower whereas fat, protein, ash content of khurma is higher compared to those reported for selroti (a cereal based traditional product) [17]. The product has moisture content comparable to some sweet plain biscuits varieties, ash content comparable to some sweet lled biscuits varieties, and protein content comparable to some varieties of snack biscuits, sweet biscuits and crackers whereas it has higher fat content compared to these industrialized biscuits [18].…”

Khurma is a cereal based food indigenous to hilly regions of Nepal. It is a deep fried flour confection prepared by mixing wheat flour, rice flour, semolina, ghee, sugar, spices mixture, milk and water. Despite its popularity, the scientific documentation and researches in khurma is scarce. Moreover, quality of khurma is often subject to variation due to differences in recipe and the data on storage stability is unavailable. Therefore, in this study recipe of the product was optimized using sensory analysis and the optimized product was analysed for physicochemical parameters and storage stability. Proximate analysis showed that optimized khurma had 2.48 ± 0.12%, 36.87 ± 0.34%, 9.51 ± 0.47%, 0.48 ± 0.03%, 0.06 ± 0.01% and 50.60 ± 0.82% of moisture, fat, protein, total ash, crude fiber and carbohydrates respectively. Moreover, product was more stable in laminated packaging material compared to polyethene (PE) package. The results showed that khurma can be served and promoted as an energy dense snack.

“…All castes have their own traditional cultural activities and cultures, for example, the Newar of Kathmandu, the Bhote of the Himalaya, the Santhal of Jhapa, the Janakpur of Mithila, etc. This chapter presents a critical review of the nutritive values and possible nutraceutical and health benefits of those fermented food products to widen their use and application in a much broader sense (Khadka, 2022) [13]. Damar Bahadur Khadka, 2020 Table 1, "Nutrition and Floods," demonstrates Nepal's high susceptibility to natural disasters.…”

Purpose: Nepal is a highly disaster-prone country, experiencing earthquakes, floods, landslides, drought, hot and cold waves, and vector-borne diseases on a regular basis. Monsoonal floods and landslides affect the most vulnerable communities in the hills and plains every year. The paper is aimed to review the effects of nutrition during floods on children. Design/Methodology/Approach: It is a review-based study. In this review, the researcher attempts to recommend a pragmatic solution for the time being through the systematic literature. The researcher uses deductive logic reasoning at large during the review. In-depth archival analysis followed by an intensive review would be strategies adopted during the scientific review. Findings/Result: The floods affected children, mothers’ and elders in Nepal. June to September is the main monsoon month in Nepal. Floods damage houses, foods, agricultural crops, livestock, poultry, and cloth. Floods affect the Terai area of Nepal. There is found floods affected 3-5 years children in Bhutan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, and Nepal. At the flooding time floods damage houses, food, crops, livestock, and cloths. In Nepal all the family members’ victimised time more vulnerable found mothers, children and elders. June to July summer time floods affect more in the Terai districts children nutrition. It is needed to do research study in seven provinces of Nepal. Central, Province, and Local government allocate special funds for flooding victim children, mother, and elders. Originality/Value: The paper provides pragmatic solutions to the effect of the disaster on Children's nutrition status which might be the foundation for a healthy society overcoming the issue of flood in Nepal. Paper Type: Review paper
