Infiltration capacity (IC) is a key property for semi-arid soils because rains in this area fall with high flows. Objective of this study was to measure soil stability in Prosopis africana agroforestry parkland with contrasted trees density. Specifically, it was to compare water infiltration rate in plots. Study was carried in Saria research station in Burkina Faso, West Africa. Design used is a factorial with three repetitions. Only one treatment was applied. This is trees density which has 4 levels: Density 0 = 0 trees per hectare (Control); Density 1 = 434 trees ha-1; Density 2 = 217 trees ha-1 and Density 3 = 109 trees ha-1. Measurement was made using a single-ring infiltrometer. Change in water depth in cylinder was measured over 2h30 at time intervals. Infiltration rate and cumulative infiltrations for each period were calculated. Results show that presence of tree density impacted significantly water infiltration rate and cumulative infiltration. Density 1 and 2 had better infiltration rate and cumulative infiltration. This result show how the presence of trees in production system could lead to water properties and/or carbon sequestration improvement in these ecosystems.","PeriodicalId":182275,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Research","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129650205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the past three decades, cashew nut alone has contributed an annual average of US$253.25 million to GDP of the country. However, the industrial investment potentials of the export crop are yet to be fully exploited due to inadequate value addition to the primary product in the country which has constrained competitiveness of the export crop in the global market. Therefore, the paper evaluates the determinants of the competitiveness of the product in the world market. Secondary time series data covering 37 years from 1980 to 2017 were used. Augmented Dickey Fuller Statistics, autoregressive distributed lag model and error correction mechanism were used in the analysis of data. Significant determinants of competitiveness of exports of cashew nuts indicate the need for efficiency in spending on infrastructure development. This should be focused on improving electricity consumption from public supply for ease of processing. Transportation system, repair of old damaged roads and building of new ones should link village to village and village to industrial centres, as well as linking village to urban towns and ports for ease of logistics in moving the export product to the global market. 12.2% in the revealed competitive advantage of cashew is an incentive for increased production and of cashew nuts in the world","PeriodicalId":182275,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Research","volume":"242 9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120838576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this research was to evaluate the efficiency of different herbicides, in the control of Digitaria insularis L. in coffee plantations, being carried out in a plantation of approximately 4 years, variety Catuaí Vermelho IAC 144, experimental design in randomized blocks (DBC), containing 5 treatments and 4 repetitions, totaling 20 experimental plots. The treatments were: Roundup Original (Glyphosate 445 g/L), Select (Cletodim 240 g/L + vegetable oil 930 g /L), Verdict R (Haloxifope-P-methyl 124,7 g/L + vegetable oil 930 g/L), Fusilade (Fluazipofe-P-butyl 250 g/L) and Control (without the addition of herbicides). The percentage of death of the Digitaria insularis L. was made visually at 7, 15 and 30 DAA, where 0% represented absence of damage and 100% complete death of the plant. It is concluded that the use of Cletodim 240 g/L (Select) and Haloxifope-p-Butyl 124,7 g/L (Verdict R), associated with vegetable oil 930 g/L in the dosage of 0,5% of the syrup, were the best treatments among those used in this research to control the Digitaria insularis L.","PeriodicalId":182275,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Research","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121236323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sequel to this, an assessment of heavy metals in such soils was conducted at Irette, Ogbaku, Orogwe, Nekede and Akwakuma dumpsites alongside areas without refuse dumps (control sites).soil samples were collected from each dumpsites as well as from control sites using soil auger at the depth of 0 – 20 cm. vegetable (Amaranth) was collected from each dumpsite and control sites. Both soil and Amaranth were prepared and analyzed for heavy metals: Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Copper (Cu) and Zinc (Zn). Results showed that heavy metal concentrations of soil and in Amaranthus cultivated on soils characterized in dumpsites are significantly (P=0.05) higher than the adjacent (control) sites. also result showed that Cr, Cu and Zn contents of soil are lower (3.06,109.70 and 21.29mg/kg respectively) than recommended limit by World Health Organization (1996) (100,140 and 50 mg/kg respectively), the range within the vegetable (amaranth) were above the normal limit suggesting that vegetable has a way of concentrating metals in their tissues. Therefore based on this study, farmers should avoid growing vegetables (Amaranth) in dumps to avoid food contamination and health hazard. This study was conducted within Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria. Owerri is in the Southeast Agro – ecological Zone of Nigeria and is located at 5 0 30’ and 5 0 57’N and longitude 7 0 04’ and 7 0 26’ E. Soils are derived from coastal plain sand (Ofomata 1975).

In Brazil, Acacia mangium Willd threat the biodiversity even in protected areas. Thus, the aim of this work was evaluated the allelopathic effect of A. mangium Willd leave extract over L. sativa , L. leucocephala and U. brizantha seeds. Leaves were collected from Parque Estadual de Itaúnas, ES, Brazil, macerated in ethyl alcohol for five days and submitted to rotatory evaporation. Metabolites classes were identified by phytochemical tests. For allelopathic bioassay, seeds of each plant tested were treated with water or one of four concentration of the extract (1, 5, 10 and 50mg/mL). Phytochemicals tests indicated the presence of triterpenos, saponins and tanins. As the allelopathic potential, the extract not only reduced germination of L. sativa in 5 and 10mg/mL but also affected the germination speed index, germination mean speed, radicular length and radicles length speed index. 50mg/mL took the full inhibition of germination. The invasive species L. leucocephala and U. brizantha also were affected by extract, although U. brizantha has been more sensitive to allelochemicals; this open a possibility of using an invasive species to control others and demonstrate the resistance of L. leucocephala even under adverse conditions. for 11 days or less, In this work, this fact occurred in days.

The multistage purposive and random sampling technique was used to get a sample of 400 cocoa farmers or producers, from whom necessary information were elicited using questionnaires. Data was analyzed with descriptive statistics and binomial logistic model. The results revealed that 26% of respondents have adopted certified cocoa production with the performance and penetration index of 1%. Moreover the results also revealed that age of respondent, productivity, access to extension services, access to credit, off-farm income, profitability and farm size were statistically significant factors influencing adoption of certified cocoa production. Also level of education, marital status, access to input and perceived risk were positive and statistically not significant factors the influence adoption of certified cocoa production while gender and household size were not statistically significant and negatively influence adoption of certified cocoa production. It can be concluded that the main hindrance of adoption certified cocoa production is inadequate sensitization. This implied that awareness creation by the actors is inadequate. It was recommended that sensitization of farmers should reinforced and also all factors that significantly affect adoption of technologies be improved.","PeriodicalId":182275,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Research","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127341083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
