The Impact of Rural-Urban Migration on Poultry Production in the Niger Delta Region, Nigeria
This study was conducted to reveal the impact of rural-urban migration on broiler production in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria. Data were collected from 795 household heads and farmers/managers/supervisors of 25 selected broiler farms in the study area. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis was utilized to analyze the data. Able bodied young men constituted most of the rura...
متن کاملEcological and Toxicological Conditions in the Delta Volga River
The decrease in the level of industrial production and the significant reduction of highly toxic substances used in the agriculture of the Volga region in the last decade did not maintain the expected decrease of pollution level in the Volga water. Concentration of many polluting substances in water continues to remain high. Among the numerous polluting substances in the Volga River two groups ...
متن کاملSeasonal Dynamics of Heavy Metal Pollution of Niger Delta River Sediment Receiving Industrial Effluents
The heavy metal changes of Okpoka-Woji River serving as a sink of effluent of industries located in its vicinity within the Trans Amadi Industrial area were monitored over rainy and dry season months in order to follow the seasonal dynamics engendered by the dumping. Sediment samples from six sampling stations located along the river were collected for the determination of heavy metals. The mea...
متن کاملEcodynamics of Exchangeable Cations and Anionic Pollutants of a Niger Delta River Sediment Receiving Industrial Effluents
Abstract The exchangeable cations and anionic pollutants of Okpoka-Woji River serving as a sink for effluents of industries located in the vicinity within the Trans-Amadi industrial area were carried out. Sediment samples were collected from six sampling stations located along the channel for the assessment of exchangeable cations namely calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium and nitrite, ni...
متن کاملModeling river delta formation.
A model to simulate the time evolution of river delta formation process is presented. It is based on the continuity equation for water and sediment flow and a phenomenological sedimentation/erosion law. Different delta types are reproduced by using different parameters and erosion rules. The structures of the calculated patterns are analyzed in space and time and compared with real data pattern...
