Mamo, T.Killham, K.S.[Effect of soil liming and vesicular-arbuscular-mycorrihizal inoculation on the growth and micronutrient content of the teff plant]Effect of soil liming and vesicular-arbuscular-mycorrihizal inoculation on the growth and micronutrient content of the teff plant

Reports the response of two stylo cultivars, viz, stylosanthes hamata cv verano and stylosanthes guianensis cv cook to 'Kanwa' - a naturally occuring salt traditionally used as a cattle lick - but which shows the presence of various essential nutrients for plants. Discusses the implications to ag...

Nutritionally enhanced beans (NEB) with more Fe and Zn than conventional beans (CB) and nutritionally enhanced maize (NEM) with more tryptophan and lysine than conventional maize (CM) were developed as part of a crop-biofortification strategy to improve human nutrition. Proxy measures were used t...

Micronutrients are essential elements needed in small amounts for adequate human nutrition and include the elements iron and zinc. Both of these minerals are essential to human well-being and an adequate supply of iron and zinc help to prevent iron deficiency anemia and zinc deficiency, two preva...

Smallholder farmers dependent on rain‐fed agriculture experience seasonal variationsin food and nutrient availability occasioned by seasonality of production patterns. This results in periods of nutrient abundance in the plenty seasons followed closely by periods of nutrient inadequacies and maln...

Kordas, KFonseca Centeno, ZYPachón, HelenaJiménez Soto, AZ[Being overweight or obese is associated with lower prevalence of anemia among Colombian women of reproductive age]Being overweight or obese is associated with lower prevalence of anemia among Colombian women of reproductive age

In most small-scale farms in sub-Saharan Africa, net negative balances of nutrients result when nutrients are removed from the farm by harvested crops, because farmers cannot afford inorganic fertilizers. A key resource that could be useful in reversing this trends is manure from livestock. The N...

Until recently kanwa has primarily been known as a mineral supplement fed to traditionally managed cattle in central and northern Nigeria. Preliminary studies carried out by ILCA's Subhumid Zone Programme in 1984 indicated its potential as an economically attractive source of plant micronutrients...
