Phytotoxic Effect Of Carica Papaya Extract On Seed-borne Fungus Of African Yam Bean (sphenostylis Stenocarpa Hochst Ex. A. Rich. Harms) Seeds
Extracts of many higher plants have been reported to exhibit antifungal properties under laboratory experiments. This study was therefore carried out to investigate the effect of Carica papaya plant extracts on the African Yam Bean seed-borne pathogen. The seed health test of African Yam Bean was carried out using the blotter paper method. The experiment was... Continue here
Proximate Composition And Colour Profile Of Honey From Northern And Southern Guinea Savannah Zones Of Niger State, Nigeria
This study evaluates the proximate composition and colour profile of honey harvested from the Northern and Southern Guinea Savannah zones of Niger State, Nigeria. The samples were gathered from nine Local Government Areas: four from the Northern Guinea Savannah Zone and five from the Southern Guinea Savannah Zone. The analysis included moisture, ash,...

High Frequency Monitoring Of Carbon (iv) Oxide Evolution From A Tropical Soil Amended With Organomineral Fertilizer In A Screenhouse Ile-ife, Nigeria
The study compared responses of carbon (iv) oxide evolved from an Ultisol sampled at different time scales and the soil properties when amended with organomineral fertilizer (OMF); thus tracking the carbon footprint of the amendment in ambient air. The carbon (iv) oxide efflux was measured titrimetrically in a static chamber set up in a screenhouse at sub-daily,... Continue here
Assessment Of Nutrient Status, Macro Faunal Diversity And Microbial Isolates In Date Palm Plantation In Damaturu Yobe State, Nigeria
This research assessed nutrient status, macro-faunal diversity and microbial isolates in the soil of date palm plantation in Mai Sandari Damaturu, Yobe State. Parameters evaluated include; data on nutrient status of soils, assemblage and diversity of soil macro invertebrates and assemblage of microbial isolates based on growth performances of the date palm. The... Continue here
Impact Of Formulated Organic Fertilizers On Soil Physical And Chemical Properties In Sandy Loam Soil Of North-eastern Nigeria
The excessive and sole use of inorganic fertilizers has led to soil nutrient depletion, acidification and loss of soil organic matter. Decreased organic matter content reduces the soil's ability to hold water and nutrients, which can lead to reduced crop yields. Organic fertilizers provide a slow release of nutrients to soil while at the same time improving... Continue here
Robotic Solutions For Precision Agriculture
The robotic system is a key component in modern agriculture. The article aims to expand robotic solutions for precision agriculture and improve productivity, resource utilization, decision-making, sustainability, and farmworker safety. It aims to automate repetitive tasks, gather real-time data, promote sustainable practices, and reduce risks for farmworkers. They... Continue here
