(2019)Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is highly susceptible to root-knot (Meloidogyne species) nematodes, with no known nematode resistant genotypes. In Limpopo Province, two cucurbitacin-containing phytonematicides had been ...
-
(2019)Nutritional water productivity (NWP) is an assessment tool, which describes the amount of water that has been used to produce selected mineral malnutrition (MMN) elements and micronutrient malnutrition (MNMN) substances. ...
-
(2019)Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of dietary methionine level on productivity and carcass characteristics of Ross 308 broiler chickens. In each experiment, the diets were isocaloric and isonitrogenous ...
-
(2019)The South African Avocado Industry is continuously expanding with ‘Hass’ cultivar occupying the largest land and therefore, the most exported cultivar. Expansion of the industry implies an increased demand for irrigation ...
