AN EXAMPLE OF A PROTECTED HORTICULTURE IN NEPAL.

2018-DECEMBER-03

Shanta and her team took me to Tandi, Chitwan to study the protected horticulture.  It was run by Brother Rajendrajung Rayamajhi, my senior at IAAS. After graduating from IAAS, he tried his luck in some organization and seed companies, where he gained skills, that turned out to be his assets later. For the last seven years, he has been involved in the protected farming.  When we reached his house, in Pithuwa, Chitwan, Brother RajendraJung, his wife and his mother were waiting for us with a complete lunch set for all. His father appeared briefly.

He had constructed large plastic and screen houses.  He had grown capsicum, pepper, tomatoes, potatoes, and cucumber. He also showed us his new experiment with waste decomposer bio-fertilizer.

I wish the technology is replicated to different parts of the country.
