Students in agricultural programs emerge from different fields in the agricultural disciplines; as a result, they have different exposure and experience with different technologies and innovations. Their varied backgrounds influence how they define, explain, and conceptualize technologies and innovations in agriculture, giving rise to varied perceptions of who should be recognized and who should not. The present study sought to explore agricultural students' perceptions of technologies and innovations and the role of farmers and extension agents in their development. The study adopted a qualitative content analysis approach by analyzing the views expressed by seventeen students from two different universities. The results showed that agricultural students have varied perceptions of what technologies and innovations represent in agriculture. Most of the students perceived technology as equipment and tools, and innovation as improved techniques and as a discovery of new methods. They also had conflicting views on the role played by the farmers, extension agents, and researchers in technology and innovation development. While the majority viewed farmers as adaptors of technologies and innovations, none viewed extension agents as contributors to technologies and innovation development rather than as disseminators. Our findings suggest a lack of knowledge in the collective role played by farmers, extension agents, and scientists in technology and innovation development. The repercussion of this is that it may contribute towards limited inclusion of diverse perspectives in technology and innovation creation and dissemination, which may affect sustainable agricultural development.","PeriodicalId":207609,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural Studies","volume":"16 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138949133","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 experimental design was a randomized complete block (Fischer Block) with 3 replications implemented in four sites (Abeche, Amleyouna, Abougoudame and Adre). During the 2019-2022 agricultural campaign, varieties of improved peanut seeds presented a very good emergence rate and then a Fisher device was adopted. The results obtained showed that with regard to the vegetative parameters, the improved variety flower 11 recorded a satisfactory and superior emergence rate, plant height and collar diameters compared to the local variety (Sudanese) which is therefore revealed to be less efficient. Regarding production parameters, the improved variety Flower 11 presented satisfactory yields of pods, seeds and biomass than that of the local variety. Observations focused on peanut kernels and biomass yields. This analysis using a partially nested model were applied to evaluate the differences between returns, the effect of each factor (variety, repetition, site and year) and their interactions. Site and variety effects were significant for peanut seed production of two types compared during the 2019-2022 agricultural season. We recommend to those responsible for the integrated resilience project to popularize this variety in the project intervention area and to future researchers to conduct the same trial in other sites in the province with an organic soil amendment.","PeriodicalId":207609,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural Studies","volume":"362 15","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138966571","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}

A preliminary study focused on the background and farming practice of the hill paddy among smallholders in Sg. Asap, Belaga Sarawak (East Malaysia) is an initiative to enhance hill paddy cultivation and pursue self-sufficiency in overall rice production. A total of 30 respondent samples were collected from February to March 2023, and the samples collected were interpreted using descriptive analysis. The findings show that Kerawing, Alek, and Pulut were the most popular hill paddy varieties. Approximately 86.7 percent of the farmers cultivated hill paddy at least more than a hectare. The most common agricultural inputs used were herbicides and the least used fungicide. 73.4 percent of farmers harvested at least 1 tonne of hill paddy per hectare. Only 53.3 percent of the farmers chose to commercialise their yield. Besides, the study shows that the younger generation’s involvement is depleting, with zero study participants below 35. Sixty percent of the farmers claimed that generational practices are the reason behind their interest in hill paddy cultivation. With commercialisation and self-sufficiency as the target of the governing party, hill paddy cultivation has to be upscale and improved in terms of farm area, management practices, involvement training, and participation of the younger generation.","PeriodicalId":207609,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural Studies","volume":"98 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139272653","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}

However, red meat derivatives have a high lipid content and during storage they produce toxic compounds such as malondialdehyde. In addition, they undergo salting processes and this greatly increases sodium consumption in the final diet.The objective of this work is to analyze the content of chlorides and malonaldehydes in cured red meats and to relate it to the emergence and/or increase in the incidence of some diseases. Nineteen different types of cured red meat derivatives were analyzed for chlorides, lipids and malonaldehydes using official methodologies. The malonaldehyde (MDA) content ranged from 3.82 to 0.31 mg MDA/Kg of meat. The chloride content in the products ranged from 10.05 to 0.18 g. 100 g-1, with a meatball brand having the highest value among the tested products. The percentage of lipids ranged from 15.82 to 1.42%. The exaggerated intake of chlorides, lipids and malonaldehydes coub beemergence and/or aggravation of several diseases, therefore, it is necessary to inform the population about the reduction in the consumption of these products as a preventive measure against illness.","PeriodicalId":207609,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural Studies","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115126363","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}
