Effects of Exotic Tree’s Growth Morphology and Litter Substrate Quality on the Adjacent Native Grasses
(KeMU, 2022-10)Light irradiance, water and litter substrate quality are major plant nutritional factors that control above and below ground plant resources. The study sought to find out the effects of exotic tree’s growth morphology and ... -
Effects of Watering Regimes, Fertilizer Levels on Nutrients Uptake, Growth and Yield of Upland Rice in Mwea, Kenya
(KeMU, 2020-11)Upland rice contributes substantially to food and nutritional security in many African countries. Introduction of NERICA cultivars was meant to boost the production and hence area under upland rice. Factors such as poor ... -
Efficacy of Moringa Oleifera and Moringa Stenopetala Leaves on Growth Performance, Haemato-Biochemical Profiles and Gut Microbiota in Broiler Chicken
(KeMU, 2021-09)Antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) have been used for decades to enhance production of meat, poultry growth acceleration, as well as improved disease prevention. The extensive use of antibiotics has led to development of ... -
Evaluation of The Effect of Regulated Deficit Irrigation and Soil Moisture Conservation Practices on Maize (Zae Mays) Performance
(KeMU, 2018-08)Though it is argued that the soils in most of Kenya's marginal rainfall areas have high potential for agriculture, low soil water constitutes a major limiting factor for crop production. Irrigation is one of the options ... -
Predicting Grazing Conflicts Based on Limited Resources in Northern Kenya
(KeMU, 2019-09)This study aimed at determining causes of grazing conflicts in Northern Kenya which were used to develop a conflicts predicting model. It specifically intended to evaluate seasonality of pasture resources, establishing ...
