Among the various renewable energies, Solar energy is one of most important sources. panel used to collect solar and convert it into useful electrical energy. The dust accumulated on reduce its efficiency a certain degree. To overcome this problem, efficient techniques clean must be implemented. proposed model bird droppings that has panel. An AI-based cleaning robot designed which performs dry...

Recently, the requirements for quality and safety of poultry products have significantly increased, what has notably limited use antibiotics in feeding poultry. This is one reasons growing interest phytogenic feed additives. We conducted an experiment to determine influence Artemisia capillaris on young quail meat productivity. To carry out experiment, we formed five groups, each counting 100 h...

When poultry manure is collected but cannot be analyzed immediately, a method for storing the manure is needed to ensure accurate subsequent analyses. This study has 3 objectives: (1) to investigate effects of 4 poultry manure sample preservation methods (refrigeration, freezing, acidification, and freeze-drying) on the compositional characteristics of poultry manure; (2) to determine compositi...

Microorganisms play a vital role in processing organic matter and returning the chemical elements into active cycle. In these decomposers are effective in dismantling the complex organic matter through a sequential break down and release of energy. Biogas is one such process which occurs in the absence of oxygen and several groups of microorganism involve in degrade the organic compounds and re...

In sustainable agricultural systems, recycling of nutrients is a major component of nutrient management. We conducted an experiment in Abakaliki South Eastern Nigeria in 2007 to investigate the effects of organic amendments (poultry droppings (PD), burnt rice husk dust, (BRHD), Unburnt rice husk dust (UBRHD) and inorganic fertilizer (NPK) on soil properties and their residual effect tested in 2...

Inadequacy of information on the early growth responses T. indica seedlings to manure sources has limited its propagation. In an attempt enhance indica, investigation was conducted assess influence organic fertilizers indica. The experimental design adopted a Completely Randomised Design with six treatments replicated five times. treatment consisted 10g each (cowdung, goat droppings, rabbit pou...

Contamination of soil with toxic substances can degrade its capacity to grow plants. A Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) experiment was set up in 2005 and 2006 to evaluate the effect of organic wastes on the physical properties and maize (Zea mays L) yield of spent oil contaminated (SOC) ultisol in Abakaliki South eastern Nigeria. The wastes comprising poultry droppings (PD) and Rice husk...

STUDY The efficiency of two commercial PCR methods based on real-time technology, the foodproof® Salmonella detection system and the BAX® PCR Assay Salmonella system was compared to standardized culture methods (EN ISO 6579:2002 - Annex D) for the detection of Salmonella spp. in poultry samples. MATERIAL AND METHODS Four sample matrices (feed, dust, boot swabs, feces) obtained directly from p...
