The city of Ilorin (GPS Coordinate N08o27.286’ E004o33.248’) lies within the semi-savannah agricultural zone is hot sub-humid and humid tropical.The mean annual rainfall of the zone ranges from 800-2000mm with annual average of 187-220 rainy days. Crop storage in this zone like any other tropical zone depends to a large degree on prevailing temperature and relative humidity. Agboola (1982) posited that the moisture content of crops especially grains, pulses, oil seeds e.t.c which depends on prevailing relative humidity is required to be reduced to a minimum level known as “safe level” before such crops can be successfully stored. Temperature is also an important physical factor in crop storage. Most insects and micro-organisms have optimum temperatures at which they can grow, develop and reproduce or multiply abundantly. Temperature fluctuation causes condensation and moisture migration in Silos leading to extensive mould development and caking of grains stored resulting in heavy losses. He stated determined moisture content equilibrium for produce at 27oc temperature and 70% relative humidity.

Aframomum corrorima is a species in the ginger family, Zingiberaceae. The spice, known as korarima, Ethiopian cardamom, or false cardamom, is obtained from the plant's seeds (usually dried), and is extensively used in Ethiopian cuisine (Braun, 2011). It is an ingredient in berbere, mitmita, awaze, and other spice mixtures, and is also used to flavor coffee (Bernard R. and François V., 2003). In Ethiopian herbal medicine, the seeds are used as a tonic, carminative, and laxative (Bernard R. and François V., 2003). The plant is native to Tanzania, western Ethiopia (in the vicinity of Lake Tana and Gelemso), south western Sudan, western Uganda(Braun, 2011). As indigenous spice, Aframomum corrorima grows in various parts of the country; Kaffa, Jimma, East and West Wollega, Sidamo, Bale, South and North Omo, Illubabour, East and West Gojam, Gamugofa, etc. (Jansen, 1981; Edossa, 1998; Simegn et al., 2016).
香姜属姜科姜科植物。这种香料，被称为korarima，埃塞俄比亚豆蔻，或假豆蔻，是从植物的种子(通常是干燥的)中获得的，广泛用于埃塞俄比亚的烹饪中(Braun, 2011)。它是一种成分，在这里，mitmita, awaze，和其他香料混合物，也用于调味咖啡(Bernard R.和franois V.， 2003)。在埃塞俄比亚的草药中，种子被用作补药、泻药和泻药(Bernard R. and franois V.， 2003)。该植物原产于坦桑尼亚，埃塞俄比亚西部(在塔纳湖和格莱姆索附近)，苏丹西南部，乌干达西部(布劳恩，2011)。作为本土香料，非洲香生长在该国的许多地方;卡法、吉马、东、西沃勒加、西达莫、贝尔、南、北奥莫、伊卢巴布尔、东、西戈贾姆、加穆戈法等(詹森，1981;Edossa, 1998;Simegn et al.， 2016)。

To design and construct mosthydraulic structures, e.g. dams, it is essential to determine watershed runoff. If a watershed lacks any gaging station, thenhydrologic models can be utilized to estimate runoff. The Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) is one of the most widelyusedcomputerwatershed models. In this model, we need to input meteorological data, such as precipitation, temperature, wind speed, solar radiation, and relative humidity;as well as watershed data, including curvenumberandroughness coefficient, to calculate the watershed runoff. Some watershedshave weather stations, but there is a risk that the recordeddataof a station do not represent the whole watershed and the use of such data may cause error. Consequently, the error of estimated runoff error needs to be determined. This study deals with the sensitivity of runoff estimatedusing the SWAT model to the variations in meteorological parameters, such as precipitation, solar radiation, wind, humidity, and temperature. Results indicate that with a 30% decrease in the average monthly precipitation, sunshine, relative humidity, wind and temperature, we witness,respectively,a 64.27% decrease, 114.67% increase, 45.93% decrease, 126.12% increase, and 39.21% increase in the estimated runoff.. Runoff estimation is found to be most sensitive to wind speed and solar radiation,and least sensitive to temperature.

This survey has been conducted to observe the disease incidence and severity on the major vegetables like tomato and chilli, cultivated in sub zoba Hamelmalo during two different seasons i.e. autumn (Qewi) and winter (Hagay). The surveyed areas were Wazntet, Awrari, Basheri, Genfelom and Hamelmalo by selecting two farms from each village. The crops were affected by different diseases such as early blight, late blight, powdery mildew, wilt, blossom end rot and leaf curl in tomato and damping off, leaf curl, bacterial leaf spot in chilies. The symptoms have been observed and compared the disease incidence and severity among the selected farms of the villages, occurred throughout the various phenological stages of the plants. The present survey revealed that there was no any significant difference between the surveyed areas, based on the diseases incidence and severity which is calculated at that particular time. Percentage of disease incidence and severity of tomato was higher in Basheri and Awrari, while the both disease intensities of chillies were recorded maximum during Qewi season in Basheri and Genfelom. In tomato and chillies, the percentage of disease incidence showed more than 77% in all villages during Hagay season but the severity was observed between 20 and 60%. The reasons for those results are low educational level, no proper irrigation, unavailability of fertilizers and lack of chemicals for controlling the diseases

for continuous seed production, well organized and adjusted seed system of the countries are very essential. The term seed system is comprised of seed production process up to marketing of the produces. In Ethiopia there are different seed system namely formal, informal and integrated those had different level of quality and then meet to end users. Beside of the availability of those systems located in our country the main challenges in the distribution, low quality and marketing system are the core. In addition to this, limited collaboration within the seed sector, private companies tend to concentrate on profitable crops for their own pocket, lack of awareness and knowledge gap about seed production, inadequate basic seed supply, budget limitation and lack of effective large scale seed enterprises. To solve such problem having depth knowledge of the progress of the countries seed system is very crucial point, thus the great aim of this review was to review on seed system progress of Ethiopia. This may help us to deal the gap and find a solution for coming generation awareness in improvement of their produce under well-organized seed system.

Man has fought to sustain oneself even in deserts for thousands of years, and succeeded on it by the skilful management of vital and scarce resource; water. Obviously water is the cardinal resource, prevailing to ensure the existence of all living beings and proposing a part of larger ecosystem (UN-Water, 2015). Even more, availability of sufficient water is an index of development of a country (Weerarathna et al., 2009). Therefore the sustainability of water should be ensured in order to corroborate the existence of the earth. The availability of water was predictable before the interference of human in the natural water cycle. But after the human intrusions such as deforestation, wetland drainage and other means of pollution, the balanced and favourable sequence started to collapse and it has led the world towards water related issues (Charles, 2000). The ultimate reaction will be more dangerous and it is estimated that one third of the world population is going to face hardships because of water scarcity.
几千年来，人类一直在沙漠中为维持生存而斗争，并通过对重要和稀缺资源的巧妙管理取得了成功;水。显然，水是最重要的资源，确保所有生物的生存，是更大生态系统的一部分(联合国水机制，2015)。更重要的是，是否有足够的水是一个国家发展的指标(Weerarathna et al.， 2009)。因此，为了证实地球的存在，必须确保水的可持续性。在人类干预自然水循环之前，水的可利用性是可以预测的。但在人类的入侵，如砍伐森林、湿地排水和其他污染手段之后，平衡和有利的序列开始崩溃，并将世界引向与水有关的问题(Charles, 2000)。最终的反应将更加危险，据估计，由于缺水，世界人口的三分之一将面临困难。

The paper deals with the production of CocosGarri, its sensory evaluation and comparative analysis with ordinary Garri. Garri made from cassava was fortified in order to improve its nutritional value using improved technology. Fortification was done using Coconut milk, milk, sugar and vanilla food flavour. Results showed that there was a significant difference between CocosGarri and ordinary garri in terms of crispiness, flavour/taste, sweetness, mouth feel and aroma. However, there was no significant difference between the appearance of the CocosGarri and ordinary garri, though Cocosgarri was still preferred due to its finer particle size. This speaks of the overall acceptability of CocosGarri over ordinary garri and therefore can be recommended to people of all age group because of its delicious taste and high nutritional value.

This speaks of the overall acceptability of CocosGarri over ordinary garri and therefore can be recommended to people of all age group because of its delicious taste and high nutritional value.","PeriodicalId":117425,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research Studies in Agricultural Sciences","volume":"320 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131916751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiments was conducted at Holetta Agricultural Research Center, Ethiopia, to assess the extent and pattern of genetic variability of Ethiopian mustard land races with respect to oil content and its related component quality traits in Forty nine Ethiopian Mustard land races. The experiment was carried out in a simple lattice design. Univariate analysis of variance showed that there were highly significant differences among genotypes for all oil quality traits compared .The significant difference indicates the existence of genetic variability among the accessions that is important for selection and breeding program. Multivariate analyses resulted in the formation of four clusters and have shown the presence of extensive genetic diversity among the genotypes. Genetic distances were highly significant among most of the clusters. The highest genetic distance was recorded between Cluster 3 and Cluster 4 (38.2) followed by Cluster 1 and Cluster 4 (37.7), and Cluster 1 and Cluster 2 (33.3). The genetic divergence between Cluster 1 and Cluster 2, Cluster 1 and Cluster 4, Cluster 2 and Cluster 4, Cluster 3 and Cluster 4 were also highly significant. Genetic distances of land races based on seed oil quality traits between Cluster 2 and Cluster 3 were only nonsignificant, indicating close relationship among the genotypes. The present study also showed that geographical diversity could not necessarily be an index of variation and the factors other than geographic diversity such as genetic drift, selection pressure, closeness in pedigree and environment may be responsible for differential grouping of land races of genotypes of Ethiopian mustard.
