Abstract:

In ensuring food production in the face of food insecurity, appropriate production technologies are inevitable. This study therefore investigated the technologies needed by arable crop farmers of Oyo and Ekiti States in South-western Nigeria. The study employed multistage sampling techniques to select 235 respondents. Quantitative data for study was collected using structured interview schedule while qualitative data was collected during Focus Group Discussion. Quantitative data was analysed with frequency distributions, percentages, mean and ranking as descriptive statistical tools, while Ord

One of the challenges confronting sustainable agricultural production in Nigeria is increased activities of quarry operatives negatively impacting on agricultural land across the Nation. However, there are limited studies on its effect of quarry operations on arable crop farming especially in southwest region of Nigeria. This study researched the consequences of the effects of quarry activities on the profitability of arable crop production in Odeda Local Government Area, Ogun state.

Regarding land use, in the member states of the European Union it can be established that maize is the most productive traditional arable crop. The annual productive area of maize in 2015 was approximately 9.33 million hectares in the EU 28, which was 3% less than that of 2014. There was also a reduction in average production, which, according to member states’ figures decreased to 6.15 tonnes/ hectare. This reduction is due to the worsening natural conditions. Consequently, the year’s production was about 57 million tonnes at the end of 2015. This represented a reduction of 25% compared to 20

A view into future requires maybe a new approach of current arable production systems. So far crop production systems have been adapted to the machinery available on the market. New technological progresses in the range of precision and digital farming show the possibilities meeting the requirements of plants even more small-spatial and efficiently. Especially small autonomous machinery may offer opportunities achieving sustainable intensification in crop farming. Different crop productions and cultivation systems have to be devised, analyzed and assessed in this context.

Abstract:

AbstractRuminant production systems in developing countries could be classified into three categories: the extensive systems, systems incorporating arable cropping and systems integrated with tree cropping. Systems have evolved in response to the agro-ecological environment, the availability and type of land, nature of cropping patterns, frequency and intensity of cropping, area of uncultivated land and animal species and animal numbers.Smallholder livestock farmers in most developing countries appear to have adopted a mixed system that incorporates the traditional extensive system and the sys

In short, as is well known, the foundation of agricultural development and food production is arable land. With the current development of science, technology, and socio-economic development, the country has also put forward requirements for food security and production. In this regard, it is necessary to strengthen the construction of high standard farmland, enhance soil improvement, strengthen the protection of arable land resources, and control and restore polluted arable land in order to improve food productivity and soil properties. In the process of farmland construction, it is necessary

Abstract:

In Nigeria, climate change is not a new phenomenon and arable crop production is vulnerable to climate change. Arable crop farmers have always responded to climate change with local strategies believed to be climate-smart. Arable crop farmers' knowledge of climate change is an important step in understanding any action to be taken to reduce its effect. However, empirical studies on the link between climate change and crop farmers’ adaptation strategies are still relatively scanty in the area. This presents a dearth in research. Therefore, our paper examined how arable crop farmers adapt to cli

Abstract:

Empirical evidence suggests that there has been an increasing negative impact of climate change on the production of arable crops in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), particularly in Nigeria. Farmers must critically evaluate and adjust to the challenges presented by climate change in order to build resilience. Global, national, and local adaptation efforts have progressed through international debate, national programs, and community-based initiatives. Adaptation has been seen as a vital component of the all-encompassing, long-term global response to climate change, protecting farmers, livelihoods, an

Abstract:

One of the problematic aspects of the fertility reproduction of irrigated soils is the lack of verified models and parameters necessary to predict the humus state. The formation of the balance of organic matter in irrigated soils is largely predetermined not only by the specificity of ecological and landscape factors of soil formation, but also by the conditions of economic use: the composition of the crop rotation, the level of production intensification, which determines the productivity of crops, ways of using by-products (grain straw) and doses of organic fertilizers.
