1. Mapping The Effect Of Food Prices, Productivity And Poverty In The Development Domains Of NigeriaPoverty remains the major obstacle to economic emancipation and achievement of development agenda in Nigeria. Worse still, rising food prices pose a major threat to feeding the teeming population in Nigeria. Declining food production, high population growth, and negative food trade balance combine to worsen the food and poverty situations in Nigeria. We stand on the premise that surging and volatile food prices could have a hardest hit on those who could not afford it –... O.E. Olayide, A.E. Ikpi, V.O. Okoruwa, , T. Alabi, T. Omodele |
2. Soil Attributes Estimation Based on Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy and Topographic VariabilityThe local management of crop areas, which is the basic concept of precision agriculture, is essential for increasing crop yield. In this context, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and digital elevation modelling (DEM) appears as an important technique for determining soil properties, on an adequate scale to agricultural management, enabling faster and less costly evaluations in soil studies. The objective of this work was to evaluate the use of DRS together with topographic parameters for... J.V. fontenelli, L.R. Amaral, J.M. Demattê, P.G. Magalhães, G. Sanches |
