| contents | <p>A study was conducted in 2022 in the Syangja and Nawalparasi (Bardaghat Susta East) districts to identify the major problem of seed production and to determine the factors that directly cause impact on the type of seed production (cereals and vegetable). Primary data was collected from 140 cereals and vegetable seed producers, three focus group discussions, and key informant interviews. Among various Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) tools, pair-wise ranking was performed to identify the major problem of seed production. The logistic regression model was used to identify factors that directly or indirectly affect in the production of cereal and vegetable seed. In the study area rice, maize and potato seeds were produced in huge amount. The result shows that the production of seed was affected by various factors; among them, the absence of technical support is the most challenging issue, followed by a lack of irrigation infrastructure. The logistic regression model results revealed that the production of cereal seed was determined positively with members of co-operatives, cultivated land, and number of households and negatively but significantly associated with education. There was significant supply-demand imbalance in the seed market. As a result, additional output is required to close the deficit. This seed production issue must be addressed to fulfill the demand of seed and factor affecting during selection of seed production (cereals and vegetable) farmers should select crop for seed production according to the knowledge.</p> |
