Item Gastrointestinal Parasite o Kadaknath Chicken(Gallus Gallus Domesticus Linnaeus, 1758) And Cross Breed Kadaknath In Suddodhan Rural Municipality, Rupandehi, Nepal(Department of Zoology, 2019-02) Khadka, GangaKadaknath is a native bird of Madhya Pradesh and recently introduced in poultry farming in Belawa, Rupandehi, Nepal whereas cross breed were later introduced in the farm and these are the cross of pure breed Kadaknath and local chicken(New Hampshire breed). A study was conducted to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites of Kadaknath and cross breed Kadaknath in Suddodhan rural municipality, Rupandehi, Nepal. A total of 150 fecal samples were collected from the farm comprising of Kadaknath (100) and cross breed (50) and examined using concentration methods and 54% of Kadaknath and 44% of cross breed were infected. Three species of nematodes and two species of Eimeria from both pure breed and cross breed and only one species of cestode from Kadaknath were recorded. In case of Kadaknath, highest prevalence rate was found infected with Ascaridia sp. (35%) followed by Heterakis sp. (12%) and Eimeria tenella (12%), Eimeria maxima (7%), Raillietina sp. (4%) and Trichostrongylus sp. (2%). Eimeria tenella and Ascaridia sp. showed the heavy mode of infection in Kadaknath. Whereas in cross breed, highest prevalence rate was found Ascaridia sp. (24%) followed by Heterakis sp. (20%) and other parasites. Only Eimeria maxima (4%) showed heavy mode of infection. Overall comparison between parasites of both the breeds showed higher prevalence in Kadaknath compared to cross breed. Only Trichostrongylus sp. nematode parasite was found significantly high infection in cross breed compared to Kadaknath (χ2 value=4.79, p=0.033) revealing that cross breed are more susceptible to Trichostrongylus sp. compared to pure breed. Whereas single and triple mode of infection were found to be statistically significant between these breeds as in pure breed, infection of Ascaridia sp. was significantly high (χ2=10.20, p=0.001). Although both group of chicken are susceptible for various parasitic infection, to prevent the chances of parasitic transfer between them, the flock should be farmed completely separate and both breeds should be treated with antihelminthic and antiprotozoal drugs on a regular basis.Item Problems and Prospects of Goat Farming: A Case Study of Phakphokthum Rural Municipality Ward No.6 of Ilam district(Department of Rural Development, 2019-02) Nepal, Laxmi PatiNepal, being one of the developing agricultural countries, sustainable development is only possible through the way of agricultural resonances by investigating and investing in resent technologies, ideas, skills and land matching seeds including commercialization in animal husbandry.The prime concern of the study were to analyze the status of commercial goat farming in Ilam district, to analyze the socio economic impact of commercial goat farming in Ilam district, to explore the supporting and constraining factors of commercial goat farming in Ilam district.A set of questionnaire entitled 'Problems and Prospects of Commercial Goat Farming' was the tools for the collection of data, which were distributed to 20 households of Phakphokthum Rural Municipality Ward No. 6 of Ilam district who were rearing at least twenty goats in their home for the purpose of business.Collected data have been analyzed and interpreted in descriptive ways.

This is why the importance of diaspora has grown over time. Diaspora, forming a complex overseas network with larger effects as sources of facilitators of trade and investment, purveyors of remittances and as brain banks has a substantial role in the international arena. The effects of international migration and diaspora of a country have abroad scope of study as it offers larger sphere of influence in the economical, political and socio- cultural aspects of both host and home countries. Many countries have realized and acknowledged the vitality of diaspora and made efficient policies in order to mobilize them as soft power of their respective countries. However, Nepal still lags behind in empowering and recognizing this powerful instrument of soft power. Hence, the research aims to shed lights on the importance of Nepalese diaspora particularly on the British Gurkhas diaspora residing in the United Kingdom. British Gurkhas are one of the pioneers to immigrate to foreign lands since 18th century. They possess very peculiar characteristics of diaspora which have their effects on the economical, political and socio-cultural scenario. Their activities and achievements are some of the areas that the study looks upon and refer to while examining their roles in the policies of both Nepal and the UK.Item CAREC Integrated Trade Agenda 2030: Issues Papers(2019-02) ADB
