Manager's Word

Since we started to work on the vegetable farming, we gained the successful result with many difficulties. In the begining we experience many problems on farming. We got many losses in the starting time. Because of lack of knowledge, about how to farming, where to get the nutrients for plants, and what should to use for plant treatment, we totally lost. But we didn't harrased and we never forgive to search and research the ideas and with hard effort, finally we got succeed. After 2 and a half years later we started to get the profits with farming of many vagetables, tomatoes, capsicum, chillies, green leeves, bitterguards, ladies-fingers, and other green vegitables. 

Our main focus is to produce tomatoes. Every kitchen demands the tomatoes for cooking the testy foods. So, denands of the tomaties are always high. Hence, we focus to produce tomatoes all the times under the the tunnel. Farming under the tunnel is very effective way for production the vegitables and tomatoes.

Tunnels.

We have many ideas to make tunnels, green-house mending, but all of the items depends upon the personal budgets. We can make Advanced Tunnels or Green-Houses. If we have not available budgets, we can make simple plastic tunnels by using of 120gsm plastic-pal for roof and bamboos for tunnel frame. Here are the sample view of Tunnels and Green-Houses.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes come in all different shapes and sizes, making them one of the more versatile fruits to cook with. Plus, they can be served hot or cold.

Tomatoes pack a hefty dose of vitamin C and adding them to your diet is an easy way to boost nutrient intake. Luckily for our immune system, there are few things you can’t do with tomatoes in the kitchen. Without tomatoes, we wouldn’t have beloved classics like marinara sauce or homemade salsa, but there’s a lot more you can do with this fruit.

For example, add them to Caprese salad or balsamic chicken, and use them as a garnish on these butternut squash tacos. From pureeing to chopping to grilling or roasting, tomatoes bring a fresh flavor to sauces and they also taste great as a stand-alone snack.

Srijana Hybrid Tomato:-

Tomato is one of the most popular vegetable grown in Nepal. To support the increased production and productivity of tomato in the country, NARC has developed Srijana tomato hybrid, which embraces various attributes preferred by the farmers and is increasingly becoming popular among the farmers and entrepreneurs in Nepal. However, there is also a need of increased production and maintenance of genetic purity of the parental lines by HRD, NARC and NARC stations and also building partnerships between public and private agencies including farmers for enabling easy access of quality parental lines and assure quality hybrid seed production and supply. Similarly, there is a need of extending technical and other necessary support services to the farmers and other actors for creating business environment and enabling them to increase income and improve their livelihoods through Srijana tomato enterprise development in Nepal.

Heirloom tomato

Tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum) are the most popular of heirloom vegetables, which are vintage varieties preserved by passing seed down from generation to generation. Heirloom tomato purchases grew in popularity as consumers sought flavorful, historic varieties. Many heirloom tomato varieties have unique coloration and appearance, but poor shipping characteristics, giving heirloom tomatoes an advantage for local sales.

Ace 55, developed at the University of California in Los Angeles, is one of the few low acid red tomatoes; it also has excellent resistance to disease and cracking. First offered for sale in 1950, Americans valued it for being among the first open pollinated, multiple disease resistant tomatoes.

Red Tomatoes

This lovely globe shaped beefsteak type tomato is firm and fleshy. Disease resistant with a beautiful red color and dark leaves, this tomato is perfect for tomato lovers and gardeners who love to cook.

These scar free fruits have a beautiful well behaved form. It's the perfect balance between acid and sugar. Great for slicing.

Chef's Choice Red is a heavy producer. Expect nearly 2 dozen fruits from every plant. This is a vigorous, tall, well-branched vining plant, prepared to keep the fruit coming all season and in need of good support for its huge tomatoes. Easily 5 feet high before the season is over, it offers great foliage protection for the fruit against the punishing effects of the summer sun.

Part of the reason for the productivity of this tomato is its superior disease resistance. Chef's Choice Red stands up to tobacco mosaic virus, resists cracking, and is not troubled by anthracnose. Healthier plants mean better growth and bigger crops, not to mention more lush foliage.

Start seeds indoors 5 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. Plant outdoors when danger of frost is past and night temperatures consistently remain above 55 degrees Fahrenheit. If an unexpected late frost is forecasted, protect young plants with plastic sheeting or other cover. Set plants 2 to 2½ feet apart.

Tomato Seedlings

There are typically tomato plants for sale at local garden centers. But you can also grow tomatoes from seed. Because the plants are heat lovers, most gardeners don't have growing seasons long enough to start tomatoes from seed outdoors. To get around that, tomato seeds are often started indoors. Learn how to plant tomato seeds, care for the seedlings, and ultimately transplant the tomato seedlings outdoors into your garden.

Select Your Preferred Tomato Seed

It's fairly easy and inexpensive to start many tomato varieties from seed, so experiment with the types you like best. Here are some factors to take into consideration:

• Look for certified organic seed if you prefer organic produce.
• If you know your area is prone to particular plant diseases, choose a hardy tomato variety.
• If you want your tomatoes all at once to preserve them, look at determinate varieties. ​Indeterminate types bear over a longer period, with some starting later in the season than others.
• Note the mature size of the plant. In general, determinate plants tend to be smaller than indeterminate ones. Small plants for containers often have names that include "patio" or "pixie."

Prepare the Containers for Planting

It's often more efficient to dampen the potting mix before you put it in the containers. Add some water, and work it through the soil. Keep adding water until the mix stays compressed in your hand but is not dripping wet. It should break apart when you poke it with your finger.

Then, fill your containers with potting soil. Gently firm the soil, so it's about an inch from the top.

Care for the Tomato Seedlings

Keep your tomato seedlings warm and moist, and provide them with light—preferably grow lights. Rotate the plants if they seem to be leaning in one direction. Once your tomato seedlings have true leaves, it's time to start feeding them. Any good liquid fertilizer can be used once a week, but dilute it to half the label's recommended dose.

Tomato stems grow sturdier if they are tossed about by the wind. You can simulate this indoors by putting a fan on your plants for an hour a day or by gently running your hand through them each time you pass.

When to Plant Tomato Seeds Indoors

Tomato seeds usually germinate within 10 days.1 The plants also develop quickly, especially if you keep them warm and give them lots of light, so seeds should be started six to eight weeks before you intend to transplant outdoors. For instance, if you plan to transplant outdoors in early May, start your seeds indoors in mid- to late March. Your transplant timing will depend on your last frost date, which is determined by your USDA hardiness zone and that year's specific weather.

When to Transplant Tomato Seedlings Outdoors

Err on the side of caution when it comes to transplanting outdoors. If you put the plants out too early, frost or a cold spell could easily hinder their growth or kill them. Tomatoes planted a little later in the season will quickly catch up to earlier transplants that have been stunted by cold.

In general, when nighttime temperatures remain steadily above 50 degrees Fahrenheit, it's safe to begin hardening off your seedlings. Your plants should be several inches tall at this point with some branching. One method is to expose them to the outdoors for gradually increasing stretches each day, starting about seven to 10 days before you intend to transplant them into the garden. After this transition period, they should be ready to live in your garden.

Tips to Care for Tomato Plants

Stake your tomato plants right after you plant them, so you don’t disturb their roots later. Then, give them a good drench of water, and be patient. They should start flowering when the days heat up.

Tomatoes are prone to diseases of both the leaves and the fruits. The best defense is to keep your plants healthy and strong. Give them regular water, leave room between plants for good air circulation, and check them daily to catch any problems in the early stages.

Finally, it's easy to get carried away with planting tomato seeds. But note that a family of four can easily feast throughout the summer on just six plants.
