Evaluating the Influence of Two Organic Manures on the Productivity of Five Tomato Varieties

Julius Kizito
Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum mill) is a significant vegetable crop cultivated globally, second only to potatoes in acreage yet leading as a crop processed for various products. The global hectares under tomato production is 4.9 million producing 186.1 million tonnes annually and Uganda has 6606 hectares with a production of 37637.2 tonnes. Although 90.9% of Ugandan farmers use fertilizers to increase tomato yields, the yields are still very low at 4 t∙ha-1 even with ...

Evaluation of Some Cowpea Genotypes for Maize-Cowpea Intercropping System in the Sudan Savannah Ecology of Ghana

Aziiba Emmanuel Asibi,Richard Dormatey,Julius Yirzagla,Listowel Aditwin Akologo,Issah Sugri,Peter Quandahor,Francis Kusi,Muktharu Zakaria,Patrick Attamah,Peter Anabire Asungre,Lamini Salim,Anslem Bawayelaazaa Nyour
For smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa, determining which cowpea genotype is most promising for intercropping systems involving maize and cowpeas can be difficult. It is challenging for smallholder farmers in northern Ghana to identify the most promising cowpea genotype to combine with maize. In the 2021 and 2022 cropping seasons, twenty-nine cowpea genotypes were grown from July to October at the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research—Savannah Agricultural Research Institute rese...

Economic Efficiency in Sorghum Production: The Case of Some Selected Districts of Fafan, Somali Region, Ethiopia

Kader Ahmed Abdulahi,Abdi Mahamed Hussein,Shamsedin Mahdi Hassan
This study examines the economic efficiency of sorghum production in designated districts of Fafan, Somali National Regional State, Ethiopia, with a focus on enhancing agricultural sustainability. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, including quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews, the research assesses factors influencing efficiency, such as input utilization, farming practices, and socio-economic variables. Stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) is employed to gauge technical, allocative,...

Effect of Five Commercial Rooters and a Formula in Jalapeño Pepper Seedlings

Salomón Buelna-Tarín, Celia Selene Romero-Félix, Bardo Heleodoro Sánchez-Soto, Gabriel Antonio Lugo-García, álvaro Reyes-Olivas, Cosme Bojórquez-Ramos
The jalapeño pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is important for the uses it possesses, in addition to being a source of employment. Due to its importance, it is necessary to produce quality seedlings, which own the characteristics that allow them to adapt in the field or greenhouse at the time of transplantation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of five nutrient-rooters and a formula on the growth and accumulation of dry root weight, dry stem weight and dry leaf wei...

Climate Change and Carbon Sequestration among Smallholder Farmers in Uganda: An Introduction and Review of Literature

Hellen Abbo Owasa
In Uganda, sorghum constitutes the second most widely grown cereal according to the latest statistics from the country’s statistics body, the Uganda Bureau of Statistics. This notwithstanding, there has been, in the context of Uganda, very little research and published literature on its potential to sequester carbon. There is no sufficient data on the exact levels of carbon sequestered by this sorghum/legume intercropping system, which is widespread as a technology within Uganda’s smallholder so...
