Abstract:

Coccidiosis is an important enteric parasitic disease associated with significant economic losses to poultry farmers worldwide. This study evaluated the prevalence of coccidian infection in broilers and layers in Makurdi. A total of 228 fresh feacal samples were randomly collected from some selected farms in Makurdi and examined in the laboratory for the presence of Eimeria oocyst using simple floatation technique. The overall prevalence due to natural infection was 58.3%. Out of the 114 broilers and 114 layers sampled 62/114 (54.4%) broilers and 71/114 (62.3%) layers had Eimeria oocysts infec

Abstract:

This work studied variations in certain climatic parameters, specifically precipitation, soil moisture and outgoing Long wave radiation (OLR) from the earth from 1997 to 2006 in Makurdi, Nigeria. Results showed that precipitation rate in Makurdi deviated from the normal annual bimodal pattern of precipitation in Nigeria. Precipitation was highest in August/September throughout the study period. The dependent of soil moisture on precipitation is highly significant as shown by the high positive value (81%) of R2. Soil moisture content also varied similarly while OLR varied inversely. The effects

Human settlements globally arise due to resource availability impacting residents' livelihoods. In Makurdi town, the River Benue is a crucial resource for sustainable development. Researchers, utilizing structured questionnaires, interviews, and records, found that non-indigenous groups exploit the river's potential, while locals focus on upland farming and white-collar jobs, neglecting the river's vast opportunities. The study recommends promoting river-linked resources like craft industries, sand mining, and Fadama farming, initiating empowerment programs, enhancing aesthetics through landsc
