This study was conducted in Abia state, Nigeria with specific objectives to: describe socio economic characteristics of ADP and non-ADP contact farmers; estimate profitability level of the two farmer groups; compare profitability of cassava production among the two farmer groups; determine factors that influence profitability of ADP and non-ADP contact cassava farmers and identify problems cons...

cyanide (cn ) is a toxic species that is found predominantly in industrial effluents generated by metallurgical operations. cyanide’s strong affinity for metals makes it favorable as an agent for metal finishing and treatment and also as a lixiviate for metal leaching, particularly gold. these technologies are environmentally sound but require safeguards to prevent accidental spills from cont...

Two bipartite begomoviruses, Indian cassava mosaic virus (ICMV) and Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus (SLCMV), have been isolated from mosaic-diseased cassava originating from central India and Sri Lanka, respectively. ICMV was transmitted with low efficiency from cassava to Nicotiana benthamiana by sap inoculation to give leaf curl symptoms. SLCMV was much more virulent in this host, producing s...

Sweeteners play a vital role in the food industry serving either as preservative or addition to consumables. The high intake of sweetener brought about production artificially synthesized which has, turn, given reason concern for health on long term. Cassava is one mostly cultivated crops Nigeria with cassava possessing highest level starch compared other crops. This research explores abundance...

Cassava plays an important role in improving food security and reducing poverty rural areas. Despite its importance, production Senegal remains low compared to other African countries. Nowadays, it is confronted with numerous constraints. It this context that a study was conducted on the cassava system Thiès "cassava granary" region, objective of examining farmers' cultivation practices. eight ...

Let X/K be an absolutely simple abelian variety over a number field; we study whether the reductions Xp tend to be simple, too. We show that if End(X) is a definite quaternion algebra, then the reduction Xp is geometrically isogenous to the self-product of an absolutely simple abelian variety for p in a set of positive density, while if X is of Mumford type, then Xp is simple for almost all p. ...

Cassava is regarded as the nutritional base of populations in developing countries, and flour, product made of cassava, is the most consumed in the world. The cassava leaves are very rich in vegetable proteins, but a big amount is lost in processing the crop. The objective of this study was to do a sensory evaluation of cassava flour to which a protein concentrate obtained from cassava leaves (...

Cassava is one of the most important foods security crops, especially in those regions disposed to difficult crop environments. The also grown southern part Ethiopia and plays an role for home consumption, animal feed source income small-scale farmers. However, its productivity still low due lack improved planting materials. Therefore, experiment was conducted at Jinka Agricultural Research Cen...
