The investigation was carried out during summer season to know the effect of different organic and inorganic fertilizers on physicochemical properties soil & content uptake plants. experiment laid in factorial randomized block design (FRBD) followed by twelve treatments with four replications. Water holding capacity, bulk density, porosity not significantly influenced application at harvest...

Organization of the industry at the beginning of the century The producers of milk and dairy produce at the beginning of the century and up to the twenties could be grouped into a series of zones. This was necessitated by the comparatively primitive methods of handling and transporting milk, and also to a considerable extent by the consumers' prejudice against milk that had been cooled and dela...

Despite the fact that erosion undermines productivity in the Ethiopian highlands, adoption of fertility enhancing techniques remained very minimal. The objectives of this study is to examine factors affecting adoption of fertilize and manure use and their interrelationships using plot and household level data collected from 211 farm households. A two-stage probit model results revealed a negati...

Producers, researchers, vendors, regulators, and policy-makers are evaluating alternative manure management systems. Motivations include reduction of the level and risk of emissions of potential pollutants to the environment (nutrients, odor, particulates and precursors, gases, and pathogens) as well as the capture of potentially valuable constituents of manure (nutrients, energy, and water). U...

More recently, areas have emerged where swine production is concentrated and where it is no longer possible to simply handle manure as a raw crop fertiliser. Some of the factors responsible for that concentration include a decrease in the number of farms, increasing average farm size, access to feed, labour, packing plants, etc. Consequently, it is crucial to develop new production practices or...

Calocybe indica, a tropical edible mushroom, is popular because it has good nutritive value and it can be cultivated commercially. The current investigation was undertaken to determine a suitable substrate and the appropriate thickness of casing materials for the cultivation of C. indica. Optimum mycelial growth was observed in coconut coir substrate. Primordia initiation with the different sub...
