The research presents the result from the quantitative interpretation of forty eight vertical electrical sounding (VES) obtained from the survey area which has helped in the identification of aquiferous units and has provided an understanding of aquifer characteristics especially the thickness and depth to fractured zones which are required for locating points with high potentials for groundwater occurrence. The Vertical Electrical Sounding technique result delineated three to six (3-6) subsurface geologic layers (top soil, clay, clay, weathered layer, partly weathered layer and bedrock) with different depth ranges (0.04m to 10.0m). The lithology of the subsurface strata is mainly clay (expansive clay) which justifies the dominance of low resistivity values and explains why the runoff water via flood doesn’t infiltrate the soil. The overburden thickness and aquifer resistivity were used in classifying the groundwater potential of the study area. Areas having moderate overburden with thickness between 5m and 10m with weathered layer above 4 Ωm such as VES 1, 3, 13, 28, 32, 39, 40, 41, 43 and 44 are delineated to be promising sites for shallow wells.","PeriodicalId":182275,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Research","volume":"43 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":"132954406","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 aims of this study were (1) to analyze the level of happiness of rural youth in farming, (2) to determine the dominant factors determining the happiness of rural youth in farming, (3) to determine the motives of rural youth in farming, for the sake of wealth or happiness in life. This research was conducted in Gedangsewu Village, Pare District, and Kediri Regency in March-August 2021. The sampling technique in this study used a purposive sampling method with a total of 50 respondents. Determination of the weight of the happiness indicator using the Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) method. The analytical method used to determine the level of happiness of young farmers is the method of calculating the happiness index. The happiness index score of rural youth in farming is 68.30 (more than 55) which means that village youth are happy with their work as farmers, but the score is still below the average score of the national happiness level (72).The indicator of the purpose of life in the dimension of the meaning of life is the dominant factor determining the happiness of young farmers. The motive of rural youth in farming is more inclined to inner happiness than wealth. This can be categorized as a moral cultural base motive.","PeriodicalId":182275,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Research","volume":"12 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":"123977037","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 confirmation of serotypes of the virus was done using African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) and Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus (TYLCV) antibodies obtained from Deutche Sammlang von Mikroorganism and Zeckulturan (DSMZ) Brauschweig, Germany. The reactivity of 30 different OLCV isolates after tests with antisera with TAS ELISA distinguished four serological profiles; those showed positive reaction with the two antisera were designated as serotype SRP A, the second serological profile included isolates that showed positive reaction with only TYLCV antisera, and were designated as serotypes SRP B, the third serological profile was isolate which showed positive reaction with only ACMV antisera and were designated as serotype C. The fourth serological profile included those isolates which had negative reaction with the two antisera (TYLCV and ACMV), and were designated as serotype SRP D. Based on the results of the study, various serotypes exists and begomovirus occurring on tomato and cassava in neighboring farms also infects okra in Maiduguri. Such information could eventually be utilized in the development of integrated begomovirus management packages in crop rotation, antibodies raised against the particles of three other geminiviruses: African cassava mosaic, Indian cassava mosaic and okra leaf curl viruses.

Also, mineral fertilisation with its certain contributions to the crop, remains costly and inaccessible to small farmers. The present study aims to assess the effects of organic fertilisation based on vermicompost on the growth and yield of the tomato Solanum lycopersicum L. In a Fisher block design. Three vermicompost treatments T20 (20 t/ha), T40 (40 t/ha), T60 (60 t/ha) and a control T0 were set up with four replicates in Daloa, west-central of Côte d'Ivoire. The germination rate of the tomato seeds was determined during the three weeks of nursery. The height, crown diameter and vigour index of the tomato plants were measured regularly, as well as the yield at the end of the trial. The main results show that the germination rate was higher with the lowest dose of vermicompost (20 t/ha) while the height, crown diameter and vigour index of the tomato plants increased more rapidly with increasing doses of vermicompost. Thus, the highest height (146.76 cm), the largest crown diameter (38.13 mm) and the highest vigour index (4.22) were obtained with the highest dose. Similarly, yield was favourably affected with increasing doses of vermicompost. The highest being obtained with T60. Increasing doses of vermicompost favourably influence tomato growth and yield. Organic fertilisation with vermicompost could be recommended to farmers in order to sustainably increase agricultural production.","PeriodicalId":182275,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Research","volume":"90 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":"114584097","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}

In 2012, the president remarked that if all the 40 million acres of arable land were put to full potential, everyone would be richer. Sugarcane commercialization, in the form of contract farming, has been praised as one of the preferred instruments to promote it, leading to the emergence of large and medium sugar corporations in Uganda’s countryside. The study aims to provide insights into the commercialization process of smallholder agriculture through sugarcane contract farming (CF) and the implications on land rights, labor relations, and rural livelihoods, taking Uganda’s Bunyoro sub-region as a case. The effect of commercial agriculture in the face of global change is critical to support strategies that ensure food security and alleviate poverty among households. The author assessed the effects of commercial sugarcane cultivation to household-level food security among smallholder farmers in Masindi District, Bunyoro sub-region, Western Uganda. Land use changes are motivated by quick commercial gains rather than sustained food production; a situation that influences food security. Majority of households cultivate few crop varieties, lack adequate and nutritious foods, and have inadequate income to purchase food to meet their needs. Inadequacy of food within some commercial sugarcane-cultivating households suggests that generating income does not necessarily increase food security. To cope with food insecurity, households offer labour in exchange for food, borrow food, ration food, and at times steal. This is exacerbated by increasing food crop failures, large family sizes, trade in food items, and declining availability of food and land for food production. Commercial sugarcane cultivation is","PeriodicalId":182275,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Research","volume":"15 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":"126026945","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}
