In Sudan, mango trees (Mangifera indica) are irrigated through conventional basin system and therefore a huge quantity of water is lost in this traditional method. So to minimize these losses, drip irrigation system was designed, managed a…
In order to determine the effect of feeding graded levels of baobab seed meal instead of concentrate on feed intake, growth rate, feed conversion rations, and physical properties of carcass of broiler chicks, 144 day old mixed-sex of broil…

The effect of management system on carcass traits of Kuroiler and local chickens was the focus of this study. Day old chicks were brooded artificially and at three weeks, 240 chicks were distributed to farmers either practicing intensive o…
Farmer knowledge on breeding practices, incubation and disease management strategies for local chicken were studied on 120 households in Gulu and Kiryandongo districts of Uganda using a questionnaire, administered during one to one intervi…
The prevalence of HIV is high in Mozambique. In young women, aged 15 to 24, the estimated HIV prevalence rate is 10.7%, compared to a prevalence rate of 3.6% among young men in the same age group. Nearly half of the people with HIV living …
A ninety (90)-day study was carried out in a commercial poultry farm to determine the incidence of blood and meat spots in chicken eggs and to see if temperature variation, egg weight, egg colour and proximity of birds to a noise source is…
In Mozambique, as in many other African countries, eggs and poultry meat are important sources of animal protein. The data published in Mozambique indicate that 44% of children aged 0-5 years suffer from chronic malnutrition, resulting int…
In developing countries, cereals are the major source of human food and non-ruminant livestock feed. They are usually in short supply and their use in feed manufacture leads to increased prices. There has been much interest over recent yea…
Ethiopia has been known as the homeland and domestication centre of several crop plants. Area unsuitability, un-productiveness, diseases, and insect pests are the most legume crop yield-limiting factors. However, leguminous plants have cap…
Cattle manure is noted for its poor nutrient quality especially in Ghana where most cattle are fed on a free range. There is therefore a need to improve its quality since it is a vital nutrient resource for smallholder farmers. An experime…
Soil productivity is positively related to soil pH. Animal manure is good alternative for improving soil pH over time. “Impacting” is a term used to refer to the establishing of mobile kraals in crop fields, to create nutrient hot spots. T…
This study investigatd the effect of rice husk biochar and sulfur (15) and Zinc (1Zn) blended inorganic fertilizer on rice yield in comparison to two treatments under normal farmers’ practice. The experiment was laid out in a complete rand…
The low animal productivity in the tropics is associated with several factors including seasonality and the qualitative variation of available fodder. A study was carried out at the Tchissola-k farm in the Municipality of Kahama, Angola fr…
Soil fertility decline and loss of organic matter are widespread challenges to crop production in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Combined biochar and compost application has potential to increase crop yield due to direct nutrient addition and l…

The objective of this review paper is to examine time series land use land cover change in Ethiopia. In the country, most Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) change studies have conducted at catchment level less than 43810 ha. It is thus diffic…
This study was conducted in South Kordofan State where farming system stability and food security is threatened. The objective was to assess the effect of agroforestry in improving soil fertility, increasing crop productivity and supportin…
Land is a natural resource that provides us with goods and services to live sustainably. However, its degradation is affecting the livelihood and safety of 1.5 billion people globally, especially rural communities, smallholder farmers, and…
Rain-fed crop farming in the arid and semi-arid lands (ASAL) in sub-Saharan Africa has been severely affected by rainfall variability. The objective of this study was to identify socio-economic factors exacerbating the effects of rainfall …
This study investigated a point of contact between Government and Civic Education as school subjects in relations to academic performance of the Ondo State Senior Secondary School Students. A descriptive survey design was adopted. A total …
Le manque de connaissances adéquates sur les interactions entre la forêt et la communauté riveraine est la raison majeure de l’échec de plusieurs politiques de conservation des écosystèmes forestiers. Cette étude vise à étudier le comporte…
Research and innovation capacity are defining facets for knowledge economies. All global economies that have advanced as well as the economies of Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRICs) that are rapidly advancing in economic transformation…
