Forests, as critical ecosystems, have played an important role in both reducing climate change and promoting sustainable development. However, anthropogenic activities such as deforestation, industrial operations, and ...
In this study, we aimed to synthesize styryl-dihydroquinazolinone derivatives for biological
evaluation against cancer. The target compounds were achieved through Iodination of 2-
aminobenzamide to yield 5-iodo-2-aminobenzamide ...
The only ecosystem that is best suited to accommodate livestock in Africa is the
Savanna ecosystem. The livestock can be raised well in the savanna ecosystem due
to the availability of enough grass and trees. However, ...
South Africa's agricultural landscape is characterized by diverse livestock farming
practices, with goat farming playing a crucial role in enhancing food security and rural
livelihoods. Goats are cost-effective, easily ...
The largest crop in the world in terms of production is sugarcane. It is produced in three provinces in South Africa. With approximately 50% of the gross farming income from field crops in Mpumalanga, KwaZulu-Natal, and ...
In South Africa, the import of wheat exceeds its domestic production. The research aimed to examine the fluctuations in wheat prices within the country and evaluate the factors contributing to these price variations during ...
Integrated nutrient management (INM) in potato production is a promising mitigation strategy to reduce the nutrient-related yield gap. Potato yield and quality are limited in Limpopo by poor soil fertility. This problem ...
Bull fertility is considered the most important consideration in the herd because bulls are responsible for conception across several females. There is a high correlation between scrotal circumference and fertility in ...
Numerous studies have applied Extreme Value Theory (EVT) to model environmental
variables like wind speed, rainfall and temperature. Recently, academic focus has shifted to machine learning algorithms for the same variables. ...
Schistosomiasis is a vector-borne disease expected to become more prevalent, as climate change improves environmental conditions for host snail maturation. Over 25.7 million South Africans are at risk, with approximately ...
There is no study done at the population level on stillbirth in Holstein dairy cattle population of South Africa. The current study was conducted to evaluate the inbreeding rate and its influence across generations on ...
The consumption of Westernised high-fat diets (HFDs) dysregulates intestinal barrier components which may lead to subclinical systemic and tissue inflammation implicated in type 2 diabetes (T2D) development. It is essential ...
Injury is a truly global health issue with massive societal and economic consequences.
In this study, Negative-Binomial integer-valued generalised autoregressive
conditional heteroscedasticity (NB-INGARCH) and autoregressive ...
Bovine brucellosis is among the most neglected zoonotic diseases in developing countries, where it is endemic and a growing challenge to public health. The development of cost-effective control measures of the disease can ...
Alternaria leaf spot, caused by Alternaria solani is one of the most economically important foliar diseases in tomato production. Its management is mainly based on the application of synthetic fungicides. However, the ...
In recent times, there has been increasing environmental concern that municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills are potentially a sink of persistent heavy metal contaminants. The contamination of landfill soil by heavy metals ...
A ground-breaking approach to managing network resources is provided by softwaredefined networks that solve a number of management-related concerns. A novel paradigm called Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN) was developed to ...
The study of finite structures in discrete mathematics is a broad area which has many in
influential results not only in mathematics but also in practice. It is well known that 1designs
have many applications in coding ...
Agricultural extension plays an important role in enhancing agricultural productivity and food security. The aim of the study was to evaluate the perceptions of small-scale farmers towards extension service delivery during ...
In this dissertation, we study P -frames and their generalisations. On the generalisations of P - frames we consider, in particular essential P -frames, CP -frames, almost P -frames, F -frames, F ′-frames and PF -frames. ...
