Biogas production facilitiesIn this review, we aim to contribute to knowledge on renewable energy from the agricultural sector. Our focus is on understanding the environmental effects of maize, grass, and sorghum, which are used as raw material for biogas digestion. The reason why we focused on ...

Future climate impacts on maize farming and food security in Malawi Agriculture is the mainstay of Malawi's economy and maize is the most important crop for food security. As a Least Developed Country (LDC), adverse effects of climate change (CC) on agriculture in Malawi are expected to be...
Forages are integral components of grassland and pasture agro-ecosystem. They are the major source of feed and nutrition for livestock. As primary producers, they are converted by livestock into secondary production in the food chain. Forage breeding is a complex process involving plant morpho-physi...
With an ammonia volatilization level of 20 kg N ha−1 — which is much lower than the 64 kg ha−1 on the 'current average' farm — the target of 30 kg N ha−1 was attained. Total crop yields (pasture grass, grass silage and silage maize) at 'De Marke' were lower than ...
Linear programming is used to show that collective farmers' returns in Ogun State could be increased by about 60% if resources were diverted towards the production of maize/yam mixture rather than the local rice desired by the government to substitute for imports. To reconcile the farmers' goal...
Maize and cotton were the highest ranked commodity research programs of the 36 commodities considered for both large and small farms. Agronomy and soils research are relatively more important for small-holders, while plant breeding and crop protection are relatively more important for large-scale ...
For dairy farms, copula models are useful for estimating probabilities of reaching a milk production goal or not exceeding a regulatory emission limit as a function of forage production. For instance, when a farm produced at least 4,500kg DM/livestock unit (LU)/year of maize silage, the ...
