Abstract

One of the main challenges facing developing countries is an ever-increasing gap between population growth and food supply. Diseases, insects, and weeds decrease the production of crops worldwide by 36%. Hence, control of crop pests contributes to increased crop production. Organic amendments to the soil have direct impacts on crop productivity and plant health as it enhances soil fertility, water, and nutrient retention and plant disease defense mechanisms. Biochar is an important organic amendment. It is produced by the pyrolysis process, whereby organic substances are broken down at higher temperatures in low oxygen conditions. Biohar improved soil nutrient availability and water retention capacity, and induced plant resistance against broad ranges of plant pathogenic organisms including fungi, nematodes, and bacteria. Biochar soil amendment also enhances root-associated microbes such as flavobacterium and arbuscular mycorrhizae. Biochar amendments can increase soil essential nutrients for crop productivity and suppress plant pathogens. Suppression of plant pathogens is attributed to the stimulation of beneficial soil microbes, providing nutrients, and inducing plant defense. The objectives of the review are to depict the importance of biochar soil amendment on crop performance, disease resistance, and soil properties.

Abstract

Attempts to attain flawless agricultural production are still hampered by a range of restrictive factors including water scarcity, climate change, plant pests and diseases. Worries about the negative and unpleasant repercussions of pesticides on health are evolving in developing countries including Ghana. Cocoa farmers’ knowledge awareness, attitude, practices and skills in handling pesticides and the potential hazards it poses to them are vital in preventing pesticide exposure and hazards. This study examines the knowledge, attitudes, practices and aspiration of cocoa farmers in Ghana regarding pesticide use and the potential hazards it poses to their health. The paper highlights the importance of understanding the diverse roles and perspectives of male and female farmers in agricultural production. The study uses a quantitative approach and a cross-sectional descriptive approach to analyze data from 364 cocoa farmers in the Asamankese Cocoa District. The study found that both male and female cocoa farmers have a positive attitude towards pesticide usage, and their knowledge of pesticide handling practices is adequate. The study also found that male and female farmers have different levels of knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding pesticide use. The findings suggest that there is a need for increased awareness and education on safe pesticide handling practices to prevent pesticide exposure and its negative health effects on farmers.

Abstract

Fruits and vegetable by-products such as peels, rinds, and seeds are the focus of functional food research. By-products from jackfruit like seeds are functional foods/ingredients. However, studies on jackfruit seeds’ nutritional, physicochemical properties and safe consumption are limited. Thus, this study aimed to determine the nutritional and physicochemical properties of raw, roasted, and boiled jackfruit seeds, as well as how these seeds could be safely consumed. The nutrient composition, total dietary fiber composition and fermentability, resistant starch, antinutrients, heavy metals, and microbial load were determined using standard methods. Jackfruit seeds are good source of protein (9.9–10.2g/100g), ash (3.3–3.8g/100g), carbohydrates (21.45–82.15g/100g), a high source of dietary fiber (12.11–13.83g/100g), resistant starch (19.9–25.6g/100g) and amylose (20.61–23.03g/100g). Phytic acid, tannic acid, heavy metals, and microbial parameters of raw and thermally processed jackfruit seed were within acceptable limits, except for the microbial parameters in raw seeds. The starchy structure of processed jackfruit seed expands its granules with increased surface area, leading to better digestion. In conclusion, processed jackfruit seed can be a potential functional food or ingredient. Consumers and food industry professionals should be aware of the beneficial effects of jackfruit by-products.

Abstract

The lignite at Mae Mo mine in Lampang Thailand, which is the focus of this study is ranked as the lowest class in coal classification. The lignite is currently burned directly in boilers for electricity production, resulting in inefficiencies. The objective is to use low-temperature pyrolysis to improve the lignite. Lab-scale experiments were conducted using different lignite particle sizes (2.36 mm, 1.00 mm, and 0.25 mm) at temperatures ranging from 250-600°C and retention times of 0-60 mins. The best quality lignite was achieved processing a particle size of 2.36 mm at a temperature of 350°C and a retention time of 20 mins. The gross calorific value, fixed carbon, and char content increased with higher operating temperatures. Weight loss occurred between 300-600°C due to the degradation of volatile organic fractions and char formation. Ash and sulfur constituents increased in smaller coal sizes. The average gross calorific value of char was 23.04-27.19 MJ/kg. Lower operating temperatures, larger coal sizes, and sufficient retention time are recommended for the pyrolysis process to achieve optimal results.

Abstract

This paper aims to study the presence of the relationship between the organic olive-growing area and the export of olive oil in the Tunisian economy; such as the producer price index for the case of olives and the exchange rate. A cointegration approach through an Auto Regressive Distributed Lag model (ARDL model) was mobilized for the period (2001-2021). The test results show the existence of a significant short and long-terms cointegration relationship between the olive area, the exchange rate and the export of olive oil. Similarly, unidirectional causal relationships have also been determined between the producer price index and the olive area on the one hand, a unidirectional causal relationship is caused by the exchange rate on the olive-growing area and this exerts unidirectional causality on the export of olive oil. The promotion of organic farming in Tunisia depends not only on the development of organic areas but also on the economic situation of the country. Thus, it can be concluded that limiting the depreciation of the national currency and improving the producer price index can improve the exchange rate and contribute positively to the development of organic olive areas and the export of olive oil in general

Abstract

The aim of this research is to investigate how different methods of delivering agricultural extension services influences the adoption of improved farming practices by cocoa farmers in the Bono Region. The study used data from 401 cocoa farmers selected through the multi-stage sampling technique. Generally, extension agents use farm visits and group meetings to facilitate the training of farmers on improved agronomic practices. Due to that, farmers perceived the use of farm visits and group meetings to be effective. We also found that farmers had a high level of knowledge on agronomic practices. The Tobit regression model was used to determine the effect of extension delivery methods on adoption of improved practices. The significant relationship found in this study between farm visits, group meetings, and the adoption of improved agronomic practices underscores the importance of targeted extension strategies that incorporate personalised interactions and group-based learning approaches to effectively promote agricultural innovation and sustainable farming practices. We recommend that the extension officers should frequently pay visits to the farmers and organise group meetings to improve the adoption of improved agronomic practices.

Abstract

A healthy lifestyle and illness prevention depend on adequate nutrition, and homestead food production, including home gardening, is one way to increase access and lower the cost of healthy foods. This study was carried out in Odeda Local Government Area of Ogun State to assess the anthropometric indices and knowledge of home gardening of women. The sample size comprised of 170 respondents which were chosen using a multistage sampling technique. Data on sociodemographic, socioeconomic variables, and home gardening knowledge were obtained using an interviewer-administered, well-structured questionnaire. Anthropometric measurements were taken using standard procedures. The nutritional status was assessed using anthropometric measurements.  Version 20.0 of Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) was used to analyze the data. The findings were presented as frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The threshold for statistical significance was set at p 0.05. The responders were 33.5 years old on average. The majority of respondents (85.3%) had at least a primary education.  It was found that 94.7% of the adult women had good knowledge of home gardening, 4.7% had average knowledge, and 0.6% had low knowledge. The nutritional status of the respondents showed that 24.1 percent were overweight, 10.6 percent were underweight, and 10.6 percent were obese. The home garden knowledge score and the anthropometric measurement (BMI) were shown to be significantly associated. The result of this study is an indication that women who are knowledgeable about gardening at home are more likely to have higher nutritional status.

Abstract

Iron is essential for normal human growth, including oxygen transport, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, DNA synthesis, mitochondrial function, and protection of cells from oxidative damage. Iron deficiency anemia is the most prevalent hematologic disorder in school-going children. Therefore the aims were the study to assess the prevalence of anemia among school-going children of rural areas of Mardan Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. A total of 300 samples were taken from those children of signs and symptoms of Iron deficiency Anemia cross-section survey. Thorough physical Examination, Lab investigations, and Clinical examination. The current research work shows that 1 of 3rd of the school-going children who had signs and symptoms of iron deficiency anemia were affected with iron deficiency Anemia at the ages of 4 to 7 years 40(40%), 7 to 10 years 35(35%) and 10 to 13 years 25(25%) respectively. severe anemia was rare at 10%, moderate anemia at 25% led by the mild type of anemia with a high percentage of 65% on the basis of Hb level. lower class families were more affected by iron deficiency anemia with 60%, children of middle class were less affected by anemia with 35% while children of upper class families were much less affected by anemia which may be due to the socioeconomic state of the family. Therefore it is recommended that iron supplementation and health and nutrition education programs should be strengthened.

Abstract

Irrigation that saves water is important for satisfying the economic and environmental sustainability of commercial agriculture and improving the living standard of the people. Precision irrigation scheduling is critical to improving irrigation efficiency.  A field experiment was conducted in two consecutive years at Abergelle irrigation schemes. The aim of the study was to determine crop water requirement and irrigation schedule of onion (when and how much to irrigate) for most market-oriented crops. The treatments were arranged with a factorial arrangement randomized complete block design with three replications. Three Levels of CROPWAT, fixed application depth (125%, 100%, and 75%ETc) and, three irrigation intervals (3, 4, and 5 days) and 1-farmer practice were used as control. The study result showed that 75% CROPWAT fixed depth at 3-day intervals achieved high water productivity, and saved 2873m3ha-1 of irrigation water compared with farmers’ method of irrigation. It provides additional irrigated land of 0.84 ha with a yield gain of 10.44 t ha-1. Therefore, a 3-day irrigation interval with 75% CROPWAT irrigation depth was recommended for the optimum yield and water productivity of the crop.
