Abstract:
A 12 weeks (3 months) experiment was conducted in the biological
garden of the department of biological sciences, university of
Abuja, main campus to determine the differences in growth rate
(length and Weight) of the African catfish Clarias
gariepinus fed with one commercial feed (Coppen) which
served as the control in tank A and two locally produced feeds,
using soybean, tiger nut, date fruits, corn bran and fish meal
for treatment B and date fruit, tiger nuts and fishmeal for
treatment C. All the experimental feeds were studied under
laboratory conditions, with the aim of establishing the best
quality feed in terms of specific growth rate, total weight and
percentage survival rate, for a period of 12 weeks. Ninety (90)
fingerlings of Clarias gariepinus were grouped
into 3 tanks with replicates. They were fed for the period of 12
weeks. Fishes in tank A were fed coppens which serves as the
control with proximate analysis of 42% crude protein, 13% fat,
1.9% crude fibre, and 8.9% ash. Tank B were fed feeds with
proximate analysis ranging from 1.56 - 40.0% crude protein, 1.49
- 23.2% fat, 3.0 - 16.26% and 2.13% - %.64. Fishes in Tank C
were fed with 1.56 - 2.2% crude protein, 0.6 to 1.49% fat, 6.9 -
16.26% crude fibre and 2.13 - 5.61% ash respectively. They were
fed 2% of their body weight twice daily, 8.00am and 4.00pm. The
growth performance and physiochemical parameters were measured
weekly. Results showed that fishes fed with coppens in tank A
(5.02) had the best growth performance while fishes fed with
formulated feeds in tank B (2.96) and C (0.437) showed
appreciable growth performance.

Abstract:
In many hydraulic structures it is required to dissipate flow
energy to prevent erosion or degradation of the structure. In
practice, there are several methods for this, including
hydraulic jumps. Hydraulic jump can occur in different modes of
channel geometry and conditions. Due to the sudden fall of the
channel bed which is also referred to as the abrupt drop, the
length of the hydraulic jump, conjugate depths of jump,
hydrodynamic pressures on the bed and other characteristics are
changed. Also, the use of roughness in the bed of the stilling
basins of the hydraulic jump type can reduce the jump length. In
this research, the abrupt drop conditions with a rough bed are
jointly applied in hydraulic jumps and changes in hydrodynamic
pressures at the bed of the stilling basin is studied. The
experimental results can be useful in designing an abrupt
roughened bed of a stilling basin based on the thickness of
concrete slabs needed to ensure the stability of the bed covers.

Investigating
Customer Behaviour Heterogeneity Pattern Using Exponential-Gamma

state, Nigeria [akomolafeayotade@gmail.com]
Abstract:
Managers today are very interested in knowing the future
purchasing pattern of their customers thereby providing little
insight about individual-level shopping behaviour. Additionally,
behaviour may evolve over time, especially in a changing
environment. This research develops an individual-level model
for customer store visiting behaviour based on buying-behaviour
data from standard wholesales outlet. We capture cross-sectional
variation in store-visit behaviour as well as changes over time
as visitors gain experience with the store, as the composition
of the customer population changes, the overall degree of buyer
heterogeneity that each store faces may change. We also examine
the relationship between visiting frequency and purchasing
propensity. However, we also show that changes (i.e., evolution)
in an individual’s visit frequency over time provides further
information regarding which customer segments are more likely to
buy. Rather than simply targeting all frequent shoppers, our
results suggest that a more refined segmentation approach that
incorporates how much an individual’s behaviour is changing
could more efficiently identify a profitable target segment.

Abstract:
This study was aimed
at investigating the effect of different drying temperatures on
the proximate, mineral and vitamins A and C composition of an
edible mushroom, P. sajor-caju. The fresh and matured
mushroom was collected from Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti
where it is being cultivated. Fresh samples were converted to
paste using mortar and pestle and immediately subjected to
proximate, mineral and vitamins A and C analysis using standard
methods. The oven dried samples (treated with 50, 60 and 700C)
were converted to powder using a blender and then subjected to
the same analysis to determine the nutrients retained in the
samples. Results revealed that the drying temperatures preserved
and enhanced the nutritional characteristics of the edible
mushroom. The treatment using 700C was the most
suitable to dry the edible mushroom as it retained most of the
nutrients (except vitamin C).

Abstract:
In this research, yield of lettuce of red salad bol, under
different treatments of irrigation water salinity and greenhouse
cultivation, was investigated in greenhouse of College of
Agriculture, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz. The experiment
was conducted as a completely randomized design with a treatment
of saline of irrigation water at three levels (S1:2, S2:5 and
S3:8 dS / m) in three replications.
The results showed that salinity levels were significant
at different levels only on leaf area at 5% probability level.
The highest plant height was obtained from treatment of
(30
cm) and the highest leaf and leaf area were form S2 treatment
(31 leaves per plant and 4161 cm 2). The highest
yield (fresh weight) was related to the treatment of
(0.174
kg) and the lowest was related to the treatment of
(0.154
kg).

Abstract:
phase transformations at different compositions and develop
different synthesis methods that can curb the formation of
impurity phases. Chemical route can be used to synthesize
nanocrystalline undoped and Ni-doped bismuth ferrite with
perovskite structure and crystallite size of about 14nm and 15.4
nm, respectively. Rise in doping concentration leads to
generation of secondary phase, thus dopant concentration is
maintained to 5mol%. Morphological analyses exhibits irregular
polygonal to bimodal shape agglomerates with few interconnected
pores. Dielectric constant for the undoped bismuth ferrite is
about 100, while for 5mol% Ni doped sample it is noted around
600 (at low frequency). Such drastic change leads to higher
polarizability which also enhances ferroelectricity with Ni
doping on perovskite bismuth ferrite. Both nanocrystalline and
Ni-doped BFO exhibits super paramagnetic nature due to
suppression of spin cycloid magcycloid magnetic moment.
Saturation magnetization of Ni-doped is slightly lower than for
undoped BFO due to smaller crystallite size.

Importance of Decentralization
in agriculture

E-mail:

Abstract:
Agricultural extension increasingly has become defined as one or
other of (apparently) differentiated activities of technology
transfer or rural development. In many situations, the transfer
of technology, heretofore considered the purview of public
sector systems, has been reconceived. Such changes suggest a
refocussing of paradigms for the delivery of public sector
extension. In developed industrialized countries, which often
provide models for extension service delivery elsewhere, the
declining relative importance of agriculture for economic
growth, the increasing education and affluence of smaller
populations of rural producers, and the increasing use of
externally purchased inputs have changed the nature of publicly
funded extension services and led to a questioning of the means
of delivery of extension services by governments Agricultural
extension is a non-formal type of education that provides
advisory services by the use of educational approach in
acquiring knowledge and skills to deal with the growing needs of
global world. Diverse agricultural extension funding and
delivery arrangements have been undertaken since the mid-1980s
by governments worldwide in the name of "privatization." When
agricultural extension is discussed, privatization is used in
the broadest sense – of introducing or increasing private sector
participation, which does not necessarily imply a transfer of
designated state-owned assets to the private sector.

Abstract:
Bahrain features an arid climate. Bahrain has two seasons, an
extremely hot summer and a relatively mild winter. The climate
of Bahrain is generally dry, but low-pressure systems in winter
can bring some rainfall. The summer in Bahrain is very hot. The
country is prone to a number of natural disasters that affect
normal operations and development from time to time. One of the
most common natural disasters in Bahrain is sand storm Earth
Quakes are also common natural disaster in Bahrain. Tsunamis
affect the economy of Bahrain from time to time especially in
the fishing sector. Extreme temperatures affect the island on an
annual basis. Drought used to be another common natural disaster
in Bahrain. Bahrain accounted for 2.4% of the worlds aluminum
output. Mineral commodities produced in Bahrain included
aggregate aluminum, cement, crude oil, iron ore, methanol,
natural gas, nitrogen fertilizer etc. Keeping in view of all
above geographical facts of the country, I have conducted many
comprehensive studies on the Bahrain weather conditions and
natural calamities combined with my researches and proposed the
Bahrain Monsoon Time Scale, Bahrain Weather Time scale and
Bahrain National Geoscope Project along with the other
scientific results Bioforecast effect, Irlapatism-A New
Hypothetical Model of Cosmology etc which can help to estimate
the impending weather conditions and natural hazards of the
country in advance to take mitigative measures and save the
people, crops and other assets. For example-By setting up the
Bahrain National Geoscope project and maintain, the country can
be predicted the impending earthquakes(and / or storm surges,
tsunamis, volcanic hazards etc geological hazards also) in
advance. Earth’s underground mineral and water resources can
still be found. Geoscope is also useful in emerging industries
such as geothermal and geo-sequestration etc. By establishing
the Bahrain Monsoon Time Scale and maintain, the country can be
estimated the impending weather conditions and natural
calamities rains, floods, landslides, avalanches, blizzard and
droughts, extreme winter conditions, heavy rainfall, mudflows,
extreme weather, cyclones, cloud burst, sand storms, hails, and
winds etc in advance. Surface water resources can still be
found.
