This manuscript explores the biological and economic efficiency of partial dietary substitution soybean (Glycine max) meal with cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) in broiler production. As a result shortage Zimbabwe due to droughts, inadequate irrigation infrastructure, high input costs, price controls, authors identified an alternative its availability similar amino acid profile meal. The experiment w...

Water deficit and phosphate (Pi) deficiency adversely affect growth and biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) of legume crops. In this study, we examined the impact of interaction between soil water conditions and available soil-Pi levels on growth, nodule development and BNF potential of nine cowpea varieties grown on dry savanna soils. In our experimental design, soils with different available s...

Cassava viruses are the major biotic constraint to cassava production in Africa. Community-wide action to manage them has not been attempted since a successful cassava mosaic disease control programme in the 1930s/40s in Uganda. A pilot initiative to investigate the effectiveness of community phytosanitation for managing cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) was implemented from 2013 to 2016 in t...

Dry lentils seeds are a good source of high quality protein, vitamins, and a balanced range of minerals. They are also an excellent source of complex carbohydrates and dietary fibres [1]. Lentil seeds, which are highly accepted in most parts of the world, provide one of the best means of fighting malnutrition among people in developing countries [2].

Legumes belong to the family Leguminosae and consist of oilseeds such as soybeans, peanuts, alfafa, clover, mesquite, and pulses, including the dry grains of peas, chickpeas, lentils, peas, beans, and lupins. Production and use of legumes date back to ancient cultures in Asia, the Middle East, South America, and North Africa. They are cultivated throughout the world for their seeds, harvested a...
