ABSTRACT  The city of Nairobi was initially engineered to keep stormwater out of sight and out of mind. Unfortunately, that approach has turned a potential resource into a waste product and created new environmental hazards. Once the rain falls onto the impervious surfaces of the streets, sidewalk, parking lots and rooftops, it picks up any and... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Breadfruit (Treculia Africana) or simply breadnut is very important  both as food and as a potential source of oil. The economic  importance of this tropical seed on domestic and commercial basis  has necessitated the development of a pedal breadfruit dehuller, that  would reduce the Cost of maintaining and purchasing motorized...

 ABSTRACT Drying is the oldest method of preserving agricultural products and it is an energy intensive  process. High prices ·and shortages of fossil fuels have increased the emphasis on using  alternative renewable energy resources. Drying of agricultural products using renewable energy  such as solar energy is environmental friendly and... Continue Reading

 ABSTRACT Weed control is one of the most difficult tasks on an agricultural farm. Three methods of weed control are commonly known in agriculture. These are mechanical, chemical and biological control. Mechanical weed control is easily adopted by farmers once they get convinced of its advantages. Mechanical weed control not only uproots the weed... Continue Reading

 ABSTRACT Food extrusion is one of the earliest methods adopted by most industries to convert their paste raw material to a finished and desire shape based on their of an extrusion machine. Extrusion technique is a process in food processing technology that combines several unit operations including cooking. kneading. shearing. shaping and... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Water conservation and food security are some of the problems facing developing countries. The challenges of water conservation could be tackled by adopting the drip irrigation method. The drip irrigation system is an irrigation system that involves the artificial application of water to the base or root zone of plants in a controlled... Continue Reading

 ABSTRACT Many grasses have played prominent roles in forage research and livestock production in Nigeria. Grasses possess two main photosynthetic pathways: the C3 pathway that is typical of most plants and a specialized C4 pathway that minimizes photorespiration and thus increases photosynthetic performance in high-temperature and/ or low- CO2...
