Taxonomic Notes on the Superfamily of Longhorned Beetles (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae)
Get PDFThe superfamily longhorned beetles (Cerambycidae) are one of the most diverse and extensive groups of insects, with over 30,000 described species worldwide. In this scientific article, we present an overview of the most important taxonomic aspects of this group, and also discuss some interesting observations obtained from our research
Effect of Dietary Inclusion Levels of Moringa Olerifera Oil on the Growth Performance and Nutrient Retention of Broiler Starter Chicks
Get PDFAn experiment was carried out to examine the effect of dietary inclusion of Moringa oleifera oil (MOO) on the growth performance and nutrient retention of broiler chicks. A total of 180-day- old broiler chicks (Arbor acre) of mixed sex were randomly allotted into six dietary treatments of 30 birds per treatment; each treatment was further divided into 3 replicates consisting of 10 birds each in a completely randomized design. Basal diet was formulated to meet the nutritional requirements of broiler chicks, feed and clean water were given ad libitum throughout the experiment which lasted for 28 days. Birds in treatment 1 (T1) were fed basal diet with Oxytetracycline at 1.5g/kg feed while birds in T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6 were fed basal diet mixed with MOO at 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 mL/kg feed respectively. Results on gas chromatography- mass spectrometry (GC-MS) revealed the presence of 17 bioactive compounds which accounted for 70.72 %. The major compounds identified in MOO are: β-caryphyllene (19.02 %), β-myrcene (16.08 %), carvenone (10.11 %) and α-cubebene (7.11 %) respectively. Data on average daily weight gain, average daily feed intake and feed conversion ratio were not significantly (P˂0.05) different among the treatments. Highest mortality was recorded among birds in T1 (0.33 %) followed by T2 (0.01 %) none was recorded in the other treatments (P˂0.05). Results on nutrient retention (dry matter, crude protein, crude fibre, ether extracts and nitrogen free extracts) were influenced by the dietary inclusion of MOO. It can be concluded that MOO could be fed to broilers up to 0.5 mL per kg feed without causing any negative effect on the performance of birds
The Number, Weight and Structure of Shortened Branches Formed During Pruning in Intensive Apple Orchards
Get PDFThis article shows the effect of the rejuvenating pruning method with a 3-4 year cycle of replacing overgrown branches, leaving 4-8, 8-12 and 12-16 fruit buds. It has been established that in overgrowing branches, with the degree of rejuvenating pruning left, the mass, number and structure of branches increase accordingly
TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENTS IN MARGINAL LANDMASS UTILIZATION FOR IMPROVEMENTS IN GOROHO BANANA (Musa acuminafe sp) QUALITY AND PRODUCTIONS
Get PDFThis study was conducted in the rural outskirts of Tomohon, North Sulawesi, 2018-2019, involving 4 local farmers as participators in this study. Each farmer was provided with 0.5 Ha of land to manage, where half (0.25Ha) was managed on their own and half (0.25Ha) was managed alongside with the researcher. Thus on the plots managed by coaching alongside with the researcher, it was introduced the utilization of a healthy bulb sortation, planting distance organization, organic and inorganic fertilization processes, panama disease control by the use of Trichoderma spp., plant productivity control. Yields in plots where farm management coaching took place resulted in an increase in productivity up to 442.66 ton/Ha, while farm management according the local famers method traditionally yielded only 17.68 ton/Ha. Yet based on economic analysis, the traditional methods by the local farmers resulted in a better benefit/cost ratio due to the lower production cost, while net profits of a well-managed farm (coached method) produced higher profitability. In aspects of continuity and sustainability as well as agri-economical profits, the improvements in production management (method coached by researcher) proved better than that of the traditional method by the farmers
