Confined to limited access to chain retailers, small farmers turned to the “thin” farmers markets for their products, in which finding reliable buyers turns out to be difficult and full of uncertainty. Farmers held a perception of lower yield of organic farming is 11.92% less likely to convert to organic farming. The low yield of …

Plants generally have an increased demand for N at various stages of development, particularly during leaf development and flowering;therefore, this element is frequently applied as a mineral fertilizer.In our study, vegetables cultivated in the conventional way were supplied with this nutrient several times during the growing season, mainly in the form of ammonium sulphate. Nevertheless, …

This included their outputs, the market prices for their products,their wage bill and the cost of each input. In the sample, some farms depend exclusively on the family for labour input while others use hired workers.Given that western agriculture is still predominantly characterised by family farms , there is a long established tradition of including …
Automated actuation devices like sprinklers, foggers, valve controlled irrigation system, harvesters and others, can be used to control irrigation, fertilization and pests in order to offset the adverse conditions .These included grid soil sampling,yield monitoring, and crop scouting. The strategically positioned sensors collect data in the form of electronic computer databases which gives birth to …
Transgenic crops can be generated with the use of recombinant DNA techniques which alter the crop’s genetic makeup by manipulating the genome—either by introduction, deletion, substitution, or silencing of an individual gene or group of genes of interest. The functionality of transgenes has expanded with time. In the beginning,only traits that exhibited complete dominance, free …
According to Pichon et al., P. xylostella can be regarded as a species highly polymorphic. This has been confirmed by Marthur et al. who indicated a strong genetic diversity in populations of box tree moths from different regions of southern and northern India.Differences in the degree of resistance to insecticides between populations can result from …

However, the capacity to adapt can influence how climate change affects individuals, communities, regions, countries and the global population.The potential to adjust in order to minimize negative impacts and maximize any benefits from climate change is known as adaptive capacity . As speculated by Lemke dry regions will become even drier while wet ones will …
It was for the first time proved by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases that significant immunogenicity can be induced safely by an edible vaccine. After two years, antigens of Norwalk virus were expressed in potato .The nor walk virus antigens were expressed in transgenic tomatoes as well. Similarly,rabies glycoprotein and hepatitis B surface …

Red and red-far red combination resulted in the highest stem elongation but with stem fragility. When Lactucasativa of variety red curly lettuce was grown under different light spectrum, it was found that anthocyanin synthesis, protein content and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase enzyme activity were highest in combined radiation of blue and red-light treatment . In another study, …
A total of one hundred and nineteen structured questionnaires were developed and thirty percentage of the root crop farmers,were randomly selected in each of the seven sampled community for interviewing.Questionnaires were distributed to educated farmers young and old, or who had educated relatives in their compounds after thorough explanations of the aim and objectives of …
