Abstract  Drought is the most important limiting factor in the production of crops in agriculture; it is becoming an increasingly severe problem, sharpening its ends due to dynamic changes in climatic variables. Tobacco is one of the major cash crops that is being grown by many farmers, but its production potential is often constrained by the... Continue Reading
ABSTRACT Experiment to investigate the effects of inorganic and organic fertilizers on growth and yield of Basella alba(Indian spinach) was conducted at the Horticultural nursery, University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Ogun state between the months of February-May 2011. Three fertilizer sources (NPK 20-10-10 and Tithonia based compost at rate of... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The maximum recoverable oil in place from the reservoir is a major challenge when it comes to EOR which is an essential part of every oil production project. In some cases, the natural drive mechanism is a relatively inefficient process and results in a low overall oil recovery. The lack of sufficient natural drive in such reservoirs has...

Overview: This project work was carried out to determine the effect of different spacing on the growth and yield of celosia argentea. The parameters considered for the experiment include plant height, leaf length, numbers of leaves and population of perforated leaves per plant, taken at 3, 5 and 7 weeks after planting. It was observed that the... Continue Reading
ABSTRACT The effect of spent engine oil on soil properties and growth of Spinach (Spinacia olereacea) was investigated. Five treatments (0, 20, 40, 60, 80)ml of the spent oil were applied to soil in perforated poly bags with Spinach strands at four weeks after stabilization. Soil analysis showed that spent engine oil had no effect on both the pH... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Tobacco is an important cash crop contributing significantly to the Zimbabwean economy. However yield and quality remain very low in the small holder sector despite the availability of potentially high yielding varieties. There are various factors which contribute to lower yields some of which are poor plant spacing combinations which... Continue Reading
ABSTRACT  Given the increasing freshwater scarcity, the performance of irrigation is critical in increasing and sustaining agricultural productivity in the water-scarce and largely arid and semi-arid Kenya. Irrigation currently accounts for most of the water withdrawals in the country, and the required improvement in the performance of irrigation... Continue Reading
ABSTRACT Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) often known as common nettle is an herbaceous perennial flowering plant on the family of urticiae. The plant originated from colder region Europe and Asia. In Kenya the plant is grown in many part including Nero, Laikipia, Embu, Meru, Narok and in the slope of Mt Kenya. The plant is grown for its leaves... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT  Intercropping is a cultural technique which gives crops a competitive advantage on weeds therefore contributes to weed management. There is need to choose the plant population which results in weed suppression whilst not negatively affecting the component crops yield. The experiment was set in a Randomised Complete Block Design with 5... Continue Reading
Abstract Vegetable Amaranth (A. cruentus) is a promising C4 crop for semi- arid regions due to its nutritive value, medicinal property and ornamental for beautifying gardens . It is widely grown in the tropics and is one of the most important leafy vegetables in the lowlands of Africa, South America and Asia. Little knowledge is known on its... Continue Reading
