1) EFFECT OF NPK FERTILIZER ON THE GROWTH AND YIELD OF CUCUMBER

ABSTRACT A field experiment was conducted at the crop pavilion, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Ilorin, Ilorin in the southern Guinea savannah ecology to determine the effect of NPK fertilizer application on the growth and yield of three cucumber varieties. The experiment was designed as a 3x5 factorial in RCBD, arranged in split-plots and... Continue Reading

2) EVALUATION OF NEW IRISH POTATO (SOLANUM TUBEROSUM L.) VARIETIES FOR YIELD POTENTIAL IN ZIMBABWE

Abstract Irish potato ( Solanum tuberosum L. ) is an important crop in Zimbabwe due to its nutritional and economic worth. The upgrading of its status to a strategic food crop by the government in 2012 has created the need for research to increase production, increase germplasm and diversify staple food crops. A study to investigate the yield... Continue Reading

3) AGROBOTANICAL STUDIES ON SEED SCARIFICATION AND NURSERY MEDIA INFLUENCE ON JUVENILE PHENOLOGY OF AFRICAN OIL BEAN (PENTACLETHRA MACROPHYLLA BENTH)

ABSTRACT Data were collected on the following number of leaf, number of leaflet, days of germination, number of petiole, number of nodes and number of internodes, there were no significant difference (P = 0.05) on effect of nursery media on leaf number and leaf let number according to table 9. The experiment to determine the influence of seed... Continue Reading

5) EFFECTS OF CHICKEN LITTER FORTIFIED WITH CHICKEN EGG SHELLS ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF STINGING NETTLE (URTICADIOICA)

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... Continue Reading

6) EFFECTS OF PLANTS SPACING AND ORGANIC MANURE RATES ON YIELD AND NUTRIENT COMPOSITION OF WATER-LEAF (TALINUM TRIANGULARE)

Abstract   An experiment was conducted at the Teaching and Research farm of the Department of Crop Science, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Nigeria, Nsukka in the 2006 cropping season, to assess the effects of planting distance and organic manure rates on yield and nutrient composition of waterleaf at Nsukka. in Southeastern Nigeria....

7) EFFECTS OF INTRA ROW SPACING ON GROWTH, YIELD AND QUALITY OF SELECTED NEW FLUE CURED TOBACCO (NICOTIANA TABACUM L.) VARIETIES

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

8) EVALUATING THE EFFECTS OF YEAST ISOLATES ON THE CONTROL OF SORE SHIN IN TOBACCO (NICOTIANA TABACUM L.) SEEDLINGS

Abstract Sore shin aused by Rhizoctonia solani is responsible for remarkable economic losses of up to 10% in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) seedlings grown in float beds, thereby becoming important production limiting factor of tobacco crop. Sore shin is responsible for wiry stem formation, stem lesions, root rots, root discolouration and damping off... Continue Reading

10) THE EFFECT OF FEVER TEA TREE (LIPPIA JAVANICA) IN THE CONTROL OF MAIZE WEEVIL (SITOPHILUS ZEAMAIS) IN STORED MAIZE (ZEA MAYS)

ABSTRACT Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky is the major insect pest seen damaging stored maize in Zimbabwe. The environmental hazards of synthetic insecticides, the unreliability supply and high costs of these chemicals resulted in the search for cheaper and safer use of the naturally available plant material to control this pest. This study... Continue Reading

11) EVALUATION OF SUPER ABSORBENT POLYMER (HIPRO-AQUA) ON THE GROWTH, YIELD AND QUALITY OF TOBACCO (NICOTIANA TABACUM L.) UNDER VARIOUS IRRIGATION REGIMES

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

12) IMPACT OF E-VOUCHER FARMER INPUT SUPPORT PROGRAMME (FISP) ON CROP PRODUCTIVITY AND INCOME DIVERSIFICATION AMONG SMALL SCALE FARMERS OF LUKANDA AGRICULTURAL CAMP IN KAPIRI MPOSHI DISTRICT IN Z

In order to revamp agricultural production in Zambia, Government in 2002 introduced the.  Farmer Input Support Programme whose aim was to improve small scale farmers’ access to  maize based agricultural inputs. However, in 2015/16 season, the Ministry of Agriculture moved  away from the conventional FISP and introduced an Electronic Voucher... Continue Reading
