: Zinc ferrite Polyurethane foam composite materials were formed by adding 0.33wt% ZnFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles into polyurethane foam (PUF) during the preparation process. ZnFe 2 O 4 /PUF composite materials have successfully been utilized as a new solid phase extraction (SPE) sorbent for the separation of cadmium and copper ions in various water samples. The XRD results revealed that only the spinel structure of ZnFe 2 O 4 was formed, with an average crystallite size of 24nm. The ferromagnetic behaviour of ZnFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles was observed, with magnetization of 4.179emu/g and coercivity of 267.11G. The microstructure of the prepared composite materials observed the spongy structure and higher porosity. The aqueous solution and real water (from Fayoum city, Egypt) were used for studying the effects of pH, sorbent dose, and shaking time of the composite materials on the Cd 2+ and Cu 2+ ions removal. The batch procedure shows the maximum extraction percentage of Cd 2+ and Cu 2+ ions were 95.8% and 96.5% at the optimal conditions.

Farm management has a special importance in the agricultural sector and specifically within the cultivation of vegetables, whether in traditional or protected cultivation. The aim of the research was to measure the economic efficiency of the agricultural greenhouses within the Fayoum Governorate, through a comprehensive survey of the productive greenhouses of farmers within the Governorate. The study also adopted the use of measures and indicators of economic efficiency in addition to the main financial and non-financial performance measures )KPI(. The Results indicated that some management patterns are superior to others in agricultural performance, as although the production approach with individual management represents the largest market share in terms of production. However, it is the least performing and efficient compared to other management patterns. While, the results indicate that the greenhouses that are subject to corporate management are the highest in various performance indicators. Whether financial or non-financial, due to the better farm management. Therefore, focus must be placed on raising the level of Performance and efficiency of greenhouses to raise levels of profitability and productivity within the protected plantations in the Governorate.

: Agricultural information is assuming increasing importance in the face of current biotic and abiotic stresses, coupled with changing dynamics of agricultural practice globally. This paper contributes to the discourse by examining information needs and obstacles of small-scale farmers in the Volta Region, Ghana. Structured questionnaires were used to collect primary data from six hundred and thirty (630) small-scale farmers, selected through multistage sampling technique. The study showed that information on marketing, post-harvest techniques, and diseases and pests management were the critical information needs of small-scale farmers in the Region. The study further established that majority of small-scale farmers were aware of information sources in the Region with the major information sources consulted by farmers in order of preference being family members, friends, radio, television and extension agents. A chi-square analysis showed that educational level of farmers was not significant at ρ ≤ 0.05 and therefore did not affect farmers’ information needs. Besides, the study showed that the major obstacles facing small-scale farmers were lack of skills to access information, inadequate information resources, insufficient agricultural extension agents, and absence of Agricultural Information Centres. These findings will certainly shape agricultural extension program planning in the Region and inform national extension policy.

: The research aims to study the current situation of the dairy industry in Egypt and to estimate the economic efficiency indicators, production patterns and costs of the cotton cheese production plants. The overall trend of the current dairy situation indicators was estimated to show both morale )amount of production, amount of consumption, size of surplus/food gap, total value of production and net agricultural income of dairy and dairy products, average per capita consumption of dairy(. and immoral )self-sufficiency ratio(. The average cost of production inputs was found to represent the largest proportion of the average variable costs by about 78.83% of the average production cost, and total revenue per ton of white cheese was estimated at LE 40,843. The value of the pound spent per ton was about £0.145, and the value added per ton of cheese was estimated at £3,612. The ratio of total variable costs to total revenue was estimated at 71.1%. The sharp surplus amounted to 11,813.25 pounds, and the stimulus for the product was estimated at 13%. An estimate of the production function shows that the most influential factors for the amount of white cheese are the amount of milk and the number of workers. A correlation was found between the amount of production, the amount of milk and the number of workers in the function. Total productivity flexibility was about 1,053. The cost-benefit estimate shows the model's statistical morale, with a calculated value of F of 1164.2 and a coefficient of F of 0.987. The minimum cost volume was 22.6 tons, achieved by about 18% of the sample coefficient, the maximum profit was about 152 tons and no laboratory from the research sample reached it.

Shalateen is considered one of the strategic areas for the security of Egypt from the south-eastern side which requires agricultural development. The objective of this study is to evaluate the soil quality using the integration of remote sensing and GIS. Thus, geopedological soil map was generated including the required soil characteristics. Twenty-six soil profiles were selected to represent the different mapping units. Assessment of soil quality is based on three main quality indices, chemical index (CI), physical index (PI), and fertility index (FI). The results revealed that chemical quality ranges from high to low quality, where most of the study area has a moderate quality. Physical quality varies from high to moderate, where most of the study area is classified as high quality. Fertility index in the study area fell into moderate and low classes. Finally, integration of the three indices showed that the study area is classified as a moderate soil quality. These results can be utilised to plan for the agriculture development taking into consideration the limiting factors and the potential use of the entire area.
