Abstract The study was based on the contribution or religious centers to the development of tourism 111 Ugandn with particular reference to Uganda Martyrs Namugongo. The study was based on three objectives that is (i) to find out the contribution of Uganda Martyrs Namugongo to tourism development in Uganda. (ii) lo establish challenges faced by Uganda Martyrs Namugongo in tourism developing in Ugancla: (iii) to suggest solutions to the challenges faced by Uganda martyrs Namugongo in dev...

Background to the study. Information from the present literatures suggests that the state of Uganda's climate is in agony, this study was taken to establish the factors that affect Uganda's climate to change. The chapter highlights the background of the study, statement of the problem, purpose of the study, objectives of the study, Research questions, and scope of the study. Climate change refers to the rise in average surface temperature on earth. An overwhelming scientific consensus that cl...
Abstract Studies were conducted between (September, 2017 to October, 2018) to investigate the variation in the compositional distribution of macrophyte communities in relation to the nutrient contents in the water and sediments of Mairuwa and Gwaigwaye reservoirs, Funtua located in the Northern vegetation of Nigeria. All the nutrients from sediments were analyzed using Standard procedures using Spectrophotometer, flame photometer and titration metho...
ABSTRACT Recognition of high yielding and nitrogen (N) fixing groundnut genotypes and desegregating them in the cereal-based cropping systems common in savannah regions will enhance food security and reduce the need for high N fertilizers hence, minimize the high cost and associated environmental consequences. Field trials were conducted during the 2015 growing season at the Research Farms of Bayero University Kano (BUK) and Institute for Agricultural Research (IAR), Ahmadu Bello Univer...
ABSTRACT One of the main reasons for the loss of productive land in irrigated fields is the buildup of salinity in the soil. In the watari irrigation Scheme, no systematic appraisal and mapping have been made before within the sector. The study area was selected after a reconnaissance survey based on the farmer's complaint about the low production. Global positioning system (GPS) was used to record the coordinate, and delineate the boundary of the study site. The coordinates of the delinea...
Abstract Identification of high N-fixing groundnut genotypes and integrating theminto the prevailing cereal-based cropping systems can reduce the need for nitrogen (N) fertilizers, thus minimizing their high cost and associated environmental consequences. This study was conducted to estimate the amount of symbiotically fixed N by groundnut genotypes and its contribution to soil N and yield of groundnut. Trials were carried out during the 2015 rainy season at Bayero University Kano (BUK) Agr...
ABSTRACT Ghana discovered oil in 2007 at Cape Three Point in the Western Region. It experienced its first low-based mud oil spillage in 2009 and 2010. Ghana is therefore exposed to possible oil spillage due to oil production in commercial quantities. It is against this background that the present study is aimed to assess the degradation along the coast and identify hydrocarbon utilizing bacteria (HUB) associated with some beach soils. The beach soils were taken from eight coastal towns; Afla...
ABSTRACT A study was carried out in 2012 in a Sudan savanna ecology in Ghana aimed at identifying the optimal planting dates and suitable cowpea varieties for green pod production. Six planting dates were considered starting from the onset of the rainy season (20th June, 30th June, 12th July, 25th July, 2nd August and 12th August), and four improved cowpea varieties released by Savanna Agricultural Research Institute (SARI) of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) as Baa...
ABSTRACT Studies have shown that poverty rates in Northern Ghana are two to three times more than the national average. Poverty, low income generation, and chronic food insecurity remains a critical challenge among the people in this region. Smallholder farmers in northern Ghana have limited access to the assets that would facilitate a shift from low productivity subsistence farming to modern commercial agriculture. The major constraints to their livelihoods include lack of infrastructure an...
ABSTRACT This study analyses the performance of commercial poultry-egg production in FCT, Abuja. Specifically, it examines profitability, efficiency (technical, cost and profit) level, factors affecting cost efficiency, determinants of profit efficiency as well as the constraints faced by poultry egg farmers in the study area. Data for this study were obtained from primary source collected from seven eight (78) purposively selected poultry farmers using structured questionnaire and/or intervi...
ABSTRACT The evaluation of the molecular and phylogenetic diversity of Acha (Digitaria spp.) landraces of the Jos plateau and its environs, was carried out between 2012, 2013 and 2014.The phenotypic and genotypic characters of the different accessions showed that variability due to effect was more in genotype had more variability in genetic diversity for the morphological traits. Thirty accessions were collected from Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area(LGA) of Bauchi State; six LGAs of Plate...
ABSTRACT Application of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (ITJCCP) of seven species of smoke fish at various locations around Shiroro Lake were evaluated. A Traditional Smoking Kiln and an Improved Traditional Smoking Kiln (control experiment),. This experiment was carried out for a period of sixteen weeks, using six hundred and seventy two(672)samples, sensory evaluation, proximate analysis, microbial identification, heavy metals and and Poly Aromatic Hydrocarbon in thesmoked seven...
