Abstract

The need of sugar cane for sugar production continues to increase yearly as human population increasing. Based on Central Bureau of Statistics, sugar cane production in Indonesia grew by 3.54% per year. However, this growth is not sufficient to meet the sugar demand of 2.70 million tons. The cause of Indonesia's low sugar production can be seen from the on-farm side, namely seed preparation. Preparing seeds using conventional methods (mules) affects the seeding time because it takes 6 months for one planting period. The experimental design was carried out using the basic pattern of a Completely Randomized Factorial Design consisting of two factors with three replications. Factor I, namely the dose of NPK inorganic fertilizer (16:16:16) and Factor II, namely the dose of Sinarbio biological fertilizer. The results of the research were (1) The interaction between the treatment of NPK fertilizer doses and biofertilizer doses on the growth of sugarcane bud chip seedlings had a significant effect on shoot length and an insignificant effect on the variables number of leaves, stem diameter, number of tillers, root volume, root wet weight and root dry weight. (2) The effect of NPK fertilizer dosage on the growth of sugarcane bud chip seedlings had no significant effect on all observed variables except root wet weight and number of tillers. (3) The effect of biofertilizer dosage on the growth of sugarcane bud chip seedlings had no significant effect on all observed variables except root volume.

Abstract

The study was conducted to identify and evaluate the effect of poisonous plants on honeybee colonies in Eastern Amhara. Two beekeeping potential zones, South Wollo and Waghimra, were selected purposively. Using a multistage sampling technique, a total of six districts and 18 local kebeles were addressed in this survey. A total of 225 sample beekeepers were selected purposively based on their experience in beekeeping, and data was collected through interviews. The result indicated that about 15.6% of the respondents had awareness about the existence of honeybee poisonous plants in their locality. According to the present finding, a total of 11 plant species were identified as poisonous plants. These include Helianthus anus, Agave spps, Aloea spps, Parthenium hysterophorus, Euphorbia tirucalli, Ranunculus mustifidus, Euphorbia spps, Guizotia scarab, Acacia saligna, Lanthana camara, and Nicotiana glauca. The effect of the poisonous plants might be either direct physical damage to honeybees or causing internal abnormality, which can lead to death. Some plants were repellent and honeybee killers, while others weakened and were responsible for the dwindling of colonies during their flowering period. The other plant species were reported to cause (vomiting, allergic reactions, headaches, diarrhea, and bad taste) to the consumers by irritating consumers' throats. The identified poisonous plant species were located abundantly in the (home garden, fence, and watershed) areas of the study area where apiaries existed. Though these plants had no value to the honeybee, beekeepers did not try to remove the plants from the area where honeybee colonies are available. Moreover, by this survey, the identified poisonous plants may or may not be poisonous plants unless checked by critical investigation of chemical analysis or by feeding of honeybees. Hence, it could be recommended that a detailed chemical analysis of these identified plants should be conducted to devise and implement appropriate control and prevention measures.

Abstract

Vitamin D deficiency and dental cavities are global issues. Thus, the purpose of the study is to investigate how dental caries in school-age children from the Peshawar district is affected by vitamin D insufficiency. The study included 1600 kids ranging in age from 4 to 15 years old. To obtain samples, a methodical random sampling procedure was used. In the current study, 1600 samples were calculated to investigate vitamin D deficiency in children enrolled in school. Men were found to have a significant percentage of vitamin D insufficiency (22.5%), but female had a relatively low ratio (12.5%). Male students made up 220 (27.5%) of the school-age population, while female students made up 100 (12.5%). Both genders had significant rates of insufficiency. Age-appropriate investigation. Male students made up 220 (27.5%) of the school-age population, while female students made up 100 (12.5%). Both genders had significant rates of inadequacy. The investigation of vitamin D deficiency according to age reveals that very low frequency was found in the low aged group (4–7 years) 80 (10%), similarly low frequency was found in the 8–11 years group 120 (15%), and very high frequency was found in the 12–15 years group 160 (20%). According to the data broken down by residency, children living in urban areas had a high frequency ratio of 160(20%) compared to 120(15%) for children living in rural areas. Long-term health effects are associated with the growing issue of vitamin D insufficiency and its relationship to school-age children's intellectual performance. The current investigation demonstrated the connection between investigation of vitamin D deficiency according to age, gender, and socioeconomic position.

Abstract

Oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) is a popular mushroom in Indonesia, with several factors affecting its yield, including seed quality, cultivation methods, and environmental conditions. The choice of planting media is crucial, as it must provide essential nutrients. Common media include straw and coffee husks, with the addition of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) enhancing productivity. Maja fruit is particularly beneficial due to its NPK content, supporting mushroom growth. This research, conducted from February to May 2024 in Klungkung Village, Jember Regency, employed a completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications. The study tested media compositions—100% sawdust (M1), 75% sawdust and 25% straw (M2), and 75% sawdust and 25% coffee husk (M3)—alongside varying LOF concentrations: no LOF (P0), 75 ml/liter (P1), 150 ml/liter (P2), and 225 ml/liter (P3). Results indicated that the interaction between LOF concentration and media composition significantly affected the total number and weight of fruiting bodies. The best combination was P1M2 (75 ml LOF/liter with 75% sawdust + 25% straw). Media composition significantly influenced the number and weight of fruiting bodies, with M3 (75% sawdust + 25% coffee skin) recommended as the optimal choice. LOF concentration notably impacted total fruit body weight, while other parameters showed no significant differences.

Abstract

Agricultural extension services are essential for enhancing smallholder farmers' productivity, promoting sustainability, and improving resilience in developing countries. However, socioeconomic, institutional, and technological challenges restrict the use of these services, despite their importance. In addition, the uptake of these services remains uneven in developing countries. This study examines the determinants of extension service uptake among smallholder grape farmers in Dodoma, Tanzania. Using a probit regression model on survey data from 120 small grape farmers, the analysis revealed significant factors influencing service uptake, including the farmer's gender, farming experience, and grape harvests. Male farmers were less likely to use extension services than their female counterparts, demonstrating gender barriers. The farming experience positively influenced the use of extension services, with more experienced farmers recognizing their benefits. In addition, higher harvests increased the likelihood of engagement, demonstrating that profitability motivates farmers to seek expert support. This study emphasizes on gender-sensitive interventions and outreach programs for inexperienced farmers, as well as improved access to extension services for low-harvest farmers. The interventions could bridge existing gaps, improve productivity, and unlock the economic potential of the grape sector.

Abstract

The teter plant is an herbal plant cultivated in Taro Village, rich in bioactive components with various health benefits, especially in its leaves. Taro villagers process teter leaves into a product called ‘loloh’ don teter. However, this product has the disadvantage of a short shelf life and is less desirable to the general public. As a solution, teter leaves can be processed into herbal tea. One important aspect in making herbal tea is the drying time. This study aimed to determine the effect of drying time on the Teter Leaf Herbal Tea characteristics and to obtained the appropriate drying time in making Teter Leaf Herbal Tea and its potential as a functional beverage. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used with the treatment of drying time at 4 levels (12; 18; 24; and 30 hours at 50oC). The results showed that the drying time had a significant effect on the characteristics of Teter Leaf Herbal Tea. A drying time of 24 hours was the right time to produced herbal tea with a yield of 20.74%, moisture content of 7.21%, total phenols 40.71 mg GAE/g, total flavonoids 28.76 mg QE/g, total tannins 0.80 mg TAE/g, vitamin C 8.13 mg AAE/g, and antioxidant activity of 85.55%. Teter leaf has the potential to be developed into functional beverage.

Abstract

Abstract—Obesity has been of global health concern, contributing to a wide range of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. Recent research has illuminated the complex role of gut microbiota in the development and progression of obesity The gut microbiota tempers host metabolism through mechanisms like fermentation of dietary fibers, production of short-chain fatty acids, and regulation of appetite-related hormones. Addressing obesity through a microbiota-centric approach necessitates comprehensive strategies that integrate dietary modifications, lifestyle intervention and consideration of culture. The gut microbiota affects metabolism and immune function which are crucial for energy regulation and fat storage. This review examines the interplay between obesity and dysbiosis, emphasizing the critical roles of diet and lifestyle as understanding these dynamics informs tailored interventions for obesity prevention and management.

Abstract

Mangoes are Uganda’s most extensively distributed fruit crop. This study documented the morphological characteristics of mango fruit varieties and farming practices aimed at developing value-added food products. A total of 390 mango growers participated in the survey. A digital weighing scale and Vernier caliper were used to measure the morphological characteristics of mango fruits at physiological maturity. Twenty-two mango varieties were identified. Kagoogwa, Apple mango, and Doodo were the common varieties grown by over 30% of the growers. Kent, Tommy Atkins, and Bire were also widely grown, as reported by over 20% of growers. Of the six commonly grown varieties, four were indigenous, namely, Kagoogwa, Apple mango, Doodo, and Bire. Kent recorded the highest fruit weight (830.00 g) and Koona had the lowest (107.50 g). Principal component (PC) analysis showed that PC1 and PC2 explained 85.93% of the overall variation in data. PC1 explained 76.06% of the variation and PC2 accounted for 9.87%. Both PC1 and PC2 were positively linked to fruit and pulp weights. However, PC1 had a substantial influence with an eigenvalue of 5.32 while PC2 had an eigenvalue of 1.69. Non-indigenous varieties were larger (p<0.05) and had more pulp than indigenous varieties. The study provides insights into mango diversity in Uganda and highlights the potential for commercial exploitation of these fruits in the development of nutrient-rich food products.

Abstract

The use of bio-control measures as alternative to chemical pesticides is increasingly encouraged on the basis of food safety as chemical pesticides are dangerous to human health. However, limited attention is paid to the impact of these bio-control measures on the germination performance of treated seeds. In this study, the germination performance of stored cowpea seeds treated with isolates of entomopathogens (Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, Verticillium lecanii and Bacillus thuringensis) usually used as bio-pesticides was investigated. The pure isolates were subjected to liquid fermentation technology using sucrose water as the substrate and the liquid medium. The isolates obtained through liquid fermentation were also inoculated into talc powder as solid medium. The germination viability of the cowpea seeds treated with the liquid and solid mediums of the isolates and stored for ten (10) weeks was determined using the standard germination test adopting the seed germination vigour (SGV) and the seed germination ability (SGA) as parameters. The study revealed that the cowpea seed treatment with the isolates in their liquid and solid mediums showed no significant impact on SGV and SGA when compared with control at the end of 1st and 5th week storage post-treatment. However a significant effect was seen at the end of 10th week storage post-treatment with the liquid medium of Verticillium lecanii showing better germination performance (SGV=58.33±1.67 and SGA=71.67±3.33) among other liquid medium isolates when compared with the control (SGV=68.33±1.67 and SGA=80.00±2.89), and the solid medium of Bacillus thuringensis revealing better germination performance (SGV=58.33±3.33 and SGA=71.67±1.67) among other solid isolates when compared with the control (SGV=68.33±1.67 and SGA=80.00±2.89). This study concludes that isolates of Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, Verticillium lecanii and Bacillus thuringensis do not reduce germination performance of cowpea seeds when used as bio-control against cowpea storage pest. However, at longer storage post-treatment of cowpea seeds with the isolates, the germination performance may be reduced.

Abstract

The decline in soil fertility due to topsoil loss caused by erosion, leaching, and continuous crop residue removal is a major challenge for crop production in the Wag-Lasta areas of Ethiopia. To address this issue, a field experiment was carried out in Lasta and Sekota districts, Eastern Amhara, Ethiopia, during the main rainy season in 2014 and 2016. The purpose of the experiment was to determine the optimal nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer rates for Sorghum bicolor production. The experiment involved four nitrogen rates (0, 23, 46, 69 kgha-1N) and three phosphorus rates (0, 23, 46 kg kgha-1 P2O5) arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications in a factorial arrangement. Soil samples were collected from 0–20 cm to determine selected soil properties, and agronomic data were collected following standard procedures. The data were then analyzed using SAS software version 9.0, and significant treatment means were separated using the least significant difference at 5% significance level. The results showed that nitrogen and phosphorus rates significantly affected sorghum yield and yield components at both locations. Specifically, applying 23 kg ha-1 N and 46 kg ha-1 P2O5 increased sorghum yield by 60% compared to the control at Sekota, while 23 kg ha-1 N and 23 kg ha-1 P2O5 gave a 125% yield increment over the control at Lalibela. Therefore, it was recommended to apply 23 kg ha-1 N and 46 kg ha-1 P2O5 for sorghum production in Sekota and 23 kg ha-1 N and 23 kg ha-1 P2O5 in Lalibela.
