1. Socio-demographic Factors Contributing to Adoption of E-commerce by Small Agribusiness Enterprises in the Upper East Region of GhanaTechnological revolution has become inevitable to development both to develop and developing economies in the 21th century. This revolution has triggered more advance market-base approaches to the transfer of goods and services, and information. This advance market-based approach has used the internet and electronic devices to bring suppliers and buyers more closely than ever before. Therefore, the adoption of E-commerce by Small agribusiness enterprises is inevitable as market expands... S. Omega, S. Akaba |
2. MARKET ACCEPTANCE AND WILLINGNESS TO PAY FOR DRONE TECHNOLOGY IN THE APPLICATION OF PESTICIDE FOR THE CONTROL OF FALL ARMYWORMIn Ghana, maize is one of the major staple food crops. Since 2016, it has been plagued by fall armyworm, leaving production capacity below the national average. The introduction of drone technology was to assist farmers to reduce havoc caused by the fall armyworm. The majority of research done in the area of drone technology has focused on the technical and mechanical aspects. This gap gives rise to this study, as the study seeks to; find out the socioeconomic characteristics of maize farmers... S. Omega |
3. Orchard Yield Assessment in North-East of Morocco using Satellite ImageryAgricultural sector represents one of the pillars of the Moroccan economy. The Green Morocco Plan (GMP) established in 2008 present the main engine of development of this sector and for local economy. One of the objectives of Pillar I and Pillar II of GMP was to maximize production with less use of water resources. As an effect of climate change, Morocco is experiencing a strong variability in spatial and temporal variability of precipitation with a detrimental effect on yield and quality of crop... K.

4. Mapping of micronutrients status in soils under multivarietal Citrus sinensis production for precision agricultureCitrus production in Nigeria is below the world average; and this is caused among other things by poor soil management. The situation is further acerbated by blanket fertilizer application and low application of precision in soil fertility management. A study was carried out on a 34 year old multi varietal citrus orchard under sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) to determine the current soil fertility status and variability of micronutrients. Soil samples were collected at a sampling depth... B.N. Okafor, B.N. Okafor, V. Aduaramigba, O. Denton |
5. Effect of Using Different Formulations of Fertilizers on Stomatal Conductance, Leaf Chlorophyll Fluorescence, Growth and Yield of Table Grapes Crops Grown in the Northeast of MoroccoTable grapes (Vitis vinefera) present an important crop production in Morocco. The practice of tree fertilization is based on nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium and micronutrients. Previous research demonstrated that using mixed fertilizers with microelements, organic matter and amino acid 4-5 times during the phonological stage improved growth and yield of different crops. The objective of a trial conducted in the region of “El GARET” on a production of 8-year-old... A. Essaihe , K. Aberkani |
