Maize-meal porridge is commonly consumed meal for the adults as breakfast food and for the children as complementary food. Food-to-food fortification was employed in order to improve the protein content of maize-meal porridge using soy flour and local groundnut paste. The study was aimed at evalu...
Herbicides applied to combat weeds and increase crop yields may also have undesired effects on beneficial soil microorganisms. Field studies were conducted in 2005 and 2006 in Zaria, Nigeria, to evaluate the response of weeds and soil microorganisms to imazaquin applied at 0.05, 0.10, 0.20 an...

Inoculation of soybean with Bradyrhizobium spp. can increase soybean yield especially on fields with no recent history of soybean production. However, yields of inoculated soybean may be constrained in P deficient soils. The objective of this study was to evaluate the responses of two soybean cul...
