Biological Diversity, EarlyView.Abstract The production of Carica papaya L. in Kenya is seriously affected by the Moroccan watermelon mosaic virus and lack of improved varieties leading to the importation of expensive seeds for the resource‐scarce farmers. To curb these challenges, new papaya hybrid lines were recently selected and bred, but their growth traits and performance ...

Repeated use of green-manure catch crops in organic cereal production - grain yields and nitrogen supply [PDF]
, 2011 By restricted access to manure, nitrogen (N) supply in organic agriculture relies on biological N-fixation. This study compares grain yields after one full-season green manure (FSGM) to yields with repeated use of a green-manure catch crop.

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT With the immediate actions required to address environmental issues posed by waste generation and the growing interest in the circular economy, anaerobic digestion (AD) offers a promising solution. As a major component of waste‐to‐energy, AD plays a dual role by processing waste and generating renewable energy at the same time, thus ...

Development of a Manure Spreader
ARID ZONE JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING, TECHNOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENT, 2007 A manure spreader was designed, constructed and evaluated. Cow dung collected from abattoirs was composted and used to test the machine in the field. Bulk density, moisture content, angle of repose and coefficient of friction of the composted dung were determined and found to be 791.9 kgm-3, 44%, 420 and 0.88 respectively. The ...

Machine Learning‐Assisted Pulse Electrodeposition of Copper for Enhanced Nitrate Sensing
ChemElectroChem, EarlyView.A copper‐based electrochemical sensor was developed via pulse electrodeposition for nitrate detection, achieving high sensitivity of 9.928 μA/mM, a wide linear range of 0.1 to 20 mM, and satisfactory recoveries in real sample analysis. Additionally, machine learning models were designed to predict sensing performance based on electrodeposition ...
