Abstract We are in a race against time to combat climate change and increase food production by 70% feed the ever‐growing world population, which is expected double 2050. Agricultural research plays vital role improving crops livestock through breeding programs good agricultural practices, enabling sustainable agriculture systems. While advanced molecular technologies have been widely adopted, phenotyping as an essential aspect of has seen little development most African institutions remains...
Poor access to clean and reliable energy technologies is a major challenge most developing countries. The decision introduce new often faced by low adoption rates or even public opposition. In addition, the data required for effective making inadequate lacking, thus constraining planning process. this study, methodology participatory appraisal of technologies, integrating desirability functions strengths, weaknesses, opportunities threats (SWOT)-analytical hierarchy process (AHP) was...
Historical maps are effective sources of geographical information and useful for historical territorial research. In this study, the examination landscape dynamics on basis over a period more than 200 years was conducted. The study area is Sorrento peninsula part near Sarno river basin in South Italy. This provides general framework assessment overall quality accuracy maps. application methodology used specific case can contribute to better understanding long term. derived knowledge be...
Mortality attributed to respiratory illnesses is well characterized in children <5 years. However, there paucity of data among older populations. Here, we leveraged from the COVID-19 Vaccine Effectiveness Evaluation establish factors associated with mortality patients severe illness (SRI) Kenya and Mali. We enrolled (≥ 12 years) requiring hospitalization for SRI, defined as acute onset (≤ 14 days) at least two following: cough, fever (reported/measured temperature ≥38 °C), chills, rigors,...
The accumulation of heavy metals in agricultural soils is a serious environmental problem. Campania region southern Italy has higher levels cancer risk, presumably due to the geogenic and anthropogenic soil pollutants, some which have been incorporated into organic matter. aim this study was introduce test an innovative, field-applicable methodology detect metal using drone-based photogrammetry microrill network modelling, specifically generate wetlands prediction indices normally applied at...
Agronomic biofortification (i.e., the application of fertilizer to elevate micronutrient concentrations in staple crops) is a recent strategy recommended for controlling Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDDs). However, its success inevitably depends on stakeholders’ appreciation and acceptance it. By taking Northern Uganda as case, this study aimed capture compare perceptions seven key stakeholder groups with respect agronomic iodine biofortification. Therefore, we employed SWOT (Strength,...
Comparative costs of public health interventions provide valuable data for decision making. However, the availability comprehensive and context-specific is often limited. The Enterics Global Health (EFGH) Shigella surveillance study-a facility-based diarrhea study across 7 countries-aims to generate evidence on system household associated with medically attended in children. EFGH working groups comprising representatives from each country (Bangladesh, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Pakistan, Peru,...
Buffalo (<em>Bubalus bubalis</em>) livestock for mozzarella cheese production plays a fundamental role in the economy of southern Italy. European and Italian regulations consider nitrogen content buffalo manure to be same as that cattle manure. This study aimed assess whether this assumption is true. The first aim was Samples were taken from 35 farms analyse phosphorous concentration Analysis confirmed lower (2%) A secondary evaluate application techniques are apparently less...

European and Italian regulations consider nitrogen content buffalo manure to be same as that cattle manure. This study aimed assess whether this assumption is true.

Agricultural technological development is a crucial strategy for agricultural commercialization and socio-economic transformation in Africa. However, key challenge to technology use agriculture remains the limited farmer acceptance of unfamiliar technologies. This paper uses sample 245 okra farmers drawn from northern Uganda assess drivers solar drying technology. On basis performance, perceive dryer perform better than open sun-drying method. Structural equation modelling results show that...
The automatic milking systems (AMS) have been deeply studied in dairy cows applications, but not the case of buffaloes; although, a few applications to species can be found literature. objective this study is compare some important functional aspects AMS with conventional systems. Aspects such as adaptation buffalo and possible relationship between frequency daily milk yield were evaluated. Two groups <em>Bubalus</em> <em>bubalis</em> reared same barn, farm located...
Uganda hosts Africa’s largest refugee population, exceeding 1.5 million in early 2023. While commended for its progressive policies, which grant freedom of movement and work opportunities, the influx displaced people since 2015 has strained shared environmental resources, including slow-growing indigenous trees utilized construction fuel. Efforts to preserve biodiversity have promoted growth use faster-growing exotic tree species. However, local communities often favor as fuel sources,...
We are in the race against time to find new solutions amidst threat of climate change, increase food production by 70% feed ever-growing world population which is expected double 2050. Agricultural research plays astonishing roles crop and livestock improvement through breeding programs good agronomic practices enable sustainable agriculture systems. The advanced molecular or modern technologies genotyping have been well-embraced most institutions worldwide. However, phenotyping great role...
Abstract The high demand for firewood and charcoal has exerted pressure on the indigenous trees in Uganda. Communities believe that are better fuel sources despite limited evidence to support this claim. This study was carried out 2021 evaluate fuelwood properties of selected tree species comparison three exotic have been promoted use by refugees host communities Lamwo District Northern Wood samples were collected from different locations area transported Gulu University laboratory analysis...
