Using Oil Palm Segregation Genetics to Decipher Illegitimate Seed Distribution Channels to Smallholder Farmers in Cameroon
Planting material or seed is the most determinant factor for oil palm productivity alongside agro climatological and management considerations. A study was conducted to determine the different varieties of oil palm planted in smallholders’ plantations, the distribution channels for oil palm seeds and all the actors involved in the seed trade sector in Cameroon. This is a bid to secure the supply of only improved planting materials to smallholder farmers. 230 oil palm smallholder plantations were surveyed and individual palms were subjected to varietal determination. The Chi-Square Test (c2) for Fixed Ratio Hypothesis (ï¡= 0.05) was used to determine whether the observed ratio deviates significantly from the Mendelian hypothesized genetic segregation ratio. Up to 65% of smallholder farms were found to be planted with poor planting material distributed in the different Mendelian ratios; 100% Dura, 50% Tenera and 50% Dura (1:1), 25% Dura, 50% Tenera and 25% Pisifera (1:2:1). The source of this poor quality planting material for these farms was deduced to come from private nursery entrepreneurs and workers of industrial plantations such as the Cameroon Development Corporation (CDC), Cameroon Palm Oil Company (SOCAPALM), Common Initiative Groups (CIG’s) and Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO’s). Farmers supplied by government services especially the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and some of its specialized development projects all received good quality material. Thus, this is the only means now available which can assure the distribution of seeds good quality seed
Hatching Performance of Indonesian Native Chicken Supplemented by L-Glutamine at Different Days of Incubation
The present study aimed to determine the hatching performance of native chicken subjected to the supplementation of L-Glutamine at different days of incubation. A total of 240 fertilized eggs native chicken eggs with an initial weight of 48.85 ± 3.3 g, were subjected to injection of glutamine on the 7th, 9th and 11th day of incubation, while the control group received no injection. A total of 1.5% glutamine was dissolved in 0.5 mL of saline solution and injected at the pointed part of the egg with the target into the albumen. Hatchability, incubation time, and chick weight at hatch were determined during the study. The hatchability of native chicken treated with an injection of glutamine amino acid on different incubation days was still lower than of the control group. However, hatches were generally more substantial in size. The incubation time of the injected chicks was longer than that of the control. Chicks from injected of glutamine on the 11th day of incubation were 12.31% heavier than controls and did not differ from injections on the day 7th and 9th of incubation. The results of this study indicated that the administration of glutamine to obtain more massive chicks at the time of hatching could be conducted on the 7th, 9th and 11th days of incubation, even with lower hatchability
