The performance of maize (Zea Mays L.) under different fertilizer rates and soil types in two Agro-Ecological zones in Swaziland
(2011-03-28)
A blanket fertilizer recommendation is used for each agro-ecological zone in Swaziland irrespective of soil type and maize genotype. The objective of the study was to determine the response of grain yield and some yield ...
Maize variety performance under different management and environmental conditions
(2011-03-30)
The purpose of the study was to compare the performance and
relative stability of grain yield among four different maize
(Zea mays L. ) types and also to investigate some agronomic traits
and their relationship to overall ...
The effect of pasteurization and sterilization of substrates on the yield of pleurotus cornucopiae and pleurotus sajor-caju in Zambia
(2011-03-25)
A study was conducted to determine the effect of substrate pasteurization
and sterilization on the yield of Pleurotus cornucopiae and Pleurotus sajor-caju, and on the suitability of sorghum, wheat and maize grains, and ...
Evaluation of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) Genotypes for forage quality
(2012-10-19)
A field experiment was carried out during the 1994/95 growing season at the Zambia Seed Company (ZAMSEED) farm (located at longitude 28" 18' E and latitude 15" 19' S) to evaluate 12 selected sorghum genotypes for forage/silage ...
A comparative performance of single cross, three way cross hybrids and open pollinated sorghum (sorghum bicolor L. mcench) culitivars
(2012-10-19)
The study was conducted to determine and characterize grain yield, grain yield stability, uniformity of three way cross(TWC), single cross (SC) hybrids and open pollinated (OP) varieties of sorghum and relate their grain ...
Introgression of desirable traits from temperate maize Zea mays L.)into tropical maize for low phosphorus soils
(2014-07-18)
Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important cereal crops in the world after wheat and rice. It is the staple food crop of people in Zambia, but phosphorus (P) deficiency in soils has been limiting grain yield. The ...
