Abstract

Study was conducted at the Microbiology laboratory of Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu to determinequality deterioration of tomatoes sample using plastic, carton and basket storage method for period of 7and 14 days respectively. 1000g matured tomatoes sample were taken from a farm settlement atOdogunyan-Ikorodu, Lagos to determine the physiochemical properties; moisture content (MC), protein (P),fat (FT), fibre (FB), ash (A) and vitamin ‘C’ (VC) of the produce before and after storage, also, microbialcount and pathogenic presence after 24 and 48 hours of storage. Result obtained showed 95.00%MC,2.21%P, 0.30%FT, 0.81%FB, 2.34%A and 67.50mgVC before storage. Tomatoes stored in the carton had thehighest nutritional values in terms of quality; 55.48%MC, 0.85%P, 0.18%FT, 0.58%FB, 1.00%A and2.50mgVC after 14 days. Penicillium, green fungi which grows in ripening fruit was found in the plasticafter 48 hours with about 2.89 * 106 colony count while, sample stored in the carton were more susceptibleto less colony count (1.52 * 106) of fungi after 48 hours. The carton gave better results when compared tobasket and plastic methods of storage in the study area as far as these quality attributes assessed areconcerned.

Abstract

This paper examines the perception of undergraduates toward Agricultural Extension Education (AEE) and Agricultural Development linkage in Nigeria. 188 agricultural students in College of Agriculture, Olabisi Onabanjo University, Aiyetoro, Ogun State and School of Agriculture, Lagos State Polytechnic, Ikorodu were used for the study using percentage, mean score, standard deviation and t-test to analysis data obtained through a questionnaire that was validated by Agricultural extension experts. Result from the study showed that 62.8% of students were male and community was most influencing factor considered in choosing agriculture. 38.3% of respondents perceive AEE as means of developing agriculture. Result also shows that training in agricultural extension (M=2.83) would increase farm output and national income. At 95% confidence interval (p<0.005), there is significance relationships in the students’ perception towards AEE as they agreed that training in extension leads to transformation in agriculture. It is recommended that, there is need for pragmatic youth development and educational programmes of extension for food security and development of agriculture in Nigeria.
