Abstract Recent trends and future demographic projections suggest that the need to produce more food fibre will necessitate effective utilization of salt‐affected land saline water resources. Currently at least 20 per cent world's irrigated is salt affected and/or with waters containing elevated levels salts. Several major irrigation schemes have suffered from problems salinity sodicity, reducing their agricultural productivity sustainability. Productivity enhancement resources through...
Fodder scarcity is a perennial problem for many smallholder farmers in developing countries. This paper discusses how fodder technologies and knowledge have been introduced integrated diverse livestock production systems Ethiopia, Syria Vietnam. A synthesis of lessons learnt shows that innovation triggered diffused by actors interacting learning networks, on farms. innovation, being only one element value chains, sustainably enhanced when linked to other innovations market-oriented...
Low and declining soil fertility has been recognized for a long time as major impediment to intensifying agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Consequently, from the inception of international agricultural research, centres operating SSA have had research programme focusing on management, including International Institute Tropical Agriculture (IITA). The scope, content, approaches management changed over past decades response lessons learnt internal external drivers this paper uses IITA...
Rapid growth of the human and livestock populations in sub-Saharan Africa is creating unprecedented increases food feed demands. These population pressures on a fixed landbase are likely to promote severe competition for resources drive agriculture progressively towards intensification. Integrated crop-livestock systems, already common highlands, expected evolve rapidly elsewhere. Research required develop technological alternatives which better resource use through synergies from...
Mastering the process of drying palm heart (Jomare) requires knowing their isothermal sorption.The purpose this work is experimental determination sorption isotherms.the gravemitric method saturated saline solutions used at three different temperatures (40, 50 and 60 °C) with a water activity extending from 0.067 to 0.85.The equilibrium was obtained after about 10 days.Four mathematical models have been (LANGMUIR, GAB, modified BET Peleg) model predict hygroscopic behavior during...
The fresh tomato is a very perishable product in arid regions for that the drying an indsipendable technique to preserve this and used at all times, study tomatoe was sampled from different farms Adrar subjected method using indirect dryer solar. dried tomatoes were screened microbiological physicochemical analysis including E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella Typhi, anaerobic sulfito- redactors, molds yeasts addition, value of pH, water activity, dry matter, assay ash. obtained...
