1. DIGITAL MAPPING OF EXCHANGEABLE CATIONS IN SOILS OF SOUTHWESTERN NIGERIASoil acidity and low exchangeable cation are the major soil fertility challenges resulting in low crop productivity in Southwest Nigeria. Digital soil mapping is an effective way to achieve precision agriculture. However, most of the research work on soil exchangeable cations as soil information was not geo-referenced, The study created geo-database and developed a digitized map of soil exchangeable cations Indicating the spatial distribution in soils of southwestern Nigeria. Secondary data... O.E. Awosiyan, I.K. Mary, F.A. Adesina |
2. Predicting the Distribution of Groundnut Phytopathogens Under Current and Future Climatic Scenarios in ZimbabweGroundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oil crop with immense nutritional and economic benefits, but its productivity in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is threatened by a plethora of phytopathogens such as groundnut rosette virus, Alternaria leafspots, early leafspots and peanut rust. In Zimbabwe, ecological niches and epidemiology of these pathogenic microbial strains, particularly under the current and predicted climate change scenarios, are still poorly understood. Yet, this information... H. Chinwa, C.N. Kamutando |
