Is Youth's Engagement in Agribusiness an Opportunity or a Necessity? A Closer Look at the Situation in South Kivu, Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the broad focus on necessity‐ and opportunity‐driven entrepreneurship in research and policy, the entrepreneurial dichotomy within the agribusiness context has not been adequately addressed. This study contributes to closing this knowledge gap by examining youth's perceptions of agribusiness through the lens of the push‐pull motivation

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Energy flow analysis and the study of Manihot esculenta Crantz [PDF]

Acta Amazonica, 1973
This paper makes use of energy flow language. It discusses how this energetics approach can be useful in research having to do with the interactions between man and the environment. All life processes have energy as their common denominator.

Characterization and Modeling of Industrial Phosphoric Acids' Rheological Behavior: Impact of Magnesium Monoxide on Viscosity

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the rheological behavior of industrial phosphoric acids (H3PO4) produced at the JORF–LASFAR phosphoric plant in Morocco, with P2O5 concentrations of 18%, 29%, 42%, and 54%. Rheological measurements were performed using a rotary cylinder rheometer over a shear rate range of 1–1000 s−1.

Stabilization time of chemical attributes and nutritional quality of manipueira for biofertilization

Agro@mbiente On-line, 2023
Manioc flour and gum (starch) have a cultural value for Amazonians. The processing of cassava roots releases manipueira, a liquid waste with a high polluting potential, due to its high levels of hydrocyanic acid. The large volumes of manipueira produced

Effects of Simultaneous Sitophilus zeamais and Prostephanus truncatus During Storage of Maize in Hermetic and Non‐Hermetic Conditions

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sitophilus zeamais (Mostschulsky), the maize weevil, and Prostephanus truncatus (Horn), the larger grain borer, are two notorious insect pests of farm‐stored products in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). The goal of this study was to determine whether there were interactions between P. truncatus and S. zeamais during storage.

Spatial Structural Self‐Regulation Engineering Increases Close Pores of Starch‐Derived Hard Carbon for Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Spatial structural self‐regulation strategy stimulates the conversion of the hydroxy group (–OH) in starch into carbonyl (–C=O) within a stable three‐dimensional cross‐linking structure. This structure not only reduces the production of water and volatile products, thereby preventing foaming during pyrolysis and improving carbon yield, but also ...
