Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is third most important crop in Nepal after rice and maize. The area of cultivation of wheat is increasing compare to last decade but its productivity could not be increased significantly due to many biotic and abiotic factors. Among them, rust disease is major biotic constraint. Leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) is an economically important disease which occurs on major wheat growing areas of plain and hill of the country. The leaf rust disease monitoring and samples collection were done from 32 districts across the wheat growing area. Rust infected leaves were folded such that rust pustules preserved inside without destroying spores. Excess leaf moisture was removed by keeping them in room temperature with shade drying. Proper dried samples were kept in paper envelop and diagnosed pathotypes at Indian Institute of Wheat and Barley Research (IIWBR), Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), Regional Station, Flowerdale, Shimla, India. urediospores were revived on 2% water agar and multiplied in susceptible host Agra Local. The fresh urediospores of each sample was collected from susceptible host and inoculated on 5-7 days old seedlings of the standard differential sets. The pathotypes of pathogen was diagnosed on the base on disease infection type showed in the differential sets. Pathotypes 57R39 121R63-1, 21R55, 109R31-1, 121R60-1, 93R15 and 93R39 were commonly observed in both plain and hills. Similarly, the pathotypes 125R23-1, 109R63 and 21R63 were recorded in lower belt whereas, pathotypes 5R13, 49R39, 125R28, 21R31 and 93R47 were found only at hilly regions. The pathotypes 21R55, 121R63-1, 121R63-1and 5R37 were recorded in successive years in most of the wheat growing area. Twenty one different pathotypes of P. triticina occur in different parts of the country. The evolving of different pathotypes diversity of pathogens may be caused by selection pressure due to same genetic materials of wheat genotypes grown in the country and conducive environment. Hence, monitoring rust pathotypes is a one of the necessary step for successful planning to manage the rust disease by developing resistant wheat genotypes.

: Sweet potato ( Ipomoea batatas (L) Lam) is one of the most important root crops. It is used as food and economically important crop in Ethiopia. However, its production and productivity is very low due to several factors: lack of information on the type and appropriate rate of fertilizers supplying major plant nutrients, which have been recognized to be deficient in Ethiopian soil and shortage of planting materials supplying system, Hence, a field experiment was conducted at Bako Agricultural Research Center in 2019/2020

: This paper assessed the profitability of smoked fish marketing in Ilaje Local Government Area of Ondo State. A multi-stage random sampling procedure was used to select one hundred and twenty (120) respondents using a well-structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, gross margin analysis, benefit-cost ratio and production function using an ordinary least square method were employed to analyse the field survey data. The results showed that on average, majority of the marketers were around 40 years of age. Many (90.0%) of the traders were female household heads with 14 years of marketing experience. The result revealed that 80% of the respondents were educated with a mean household size of 9 persons. The total cost and revenue were ₦64,808.0 and ₦125,000.0 per month, respectively, while the gross margin and net income for the sales of 50kg of smoked fish were ₦63,641.97 and ₦60,191.97, respectively per month. The profitability of selling smoked fish was positively and significantly impacted by household size, fish marketing experience and educational status of respondents who attained secondary school education at the 1% level. The study also found that gender, age of the respondent, cost of transportation and miscellaneous operating cost of smoked fish marketing had a negative influence on their net margin. Based on these findings, it is recommended that policies that will increase the level of education and participation of young people in fish trading should be encouraged and factored into policies related to fish production and marketing.

: Ecosystem services are considered as essential factors to determine the quality of the wellbeing of populations. This research paper focuses on establishing the contributions of ecosystem services in ensuring food security and its subsequent impact on the socio-economic wellbeing of both men and women within the Volta Basin and what accounts for unequal access to ecosystem services by men and women. It also identifies the socio-cultural issues on ecosystem utilization within the given area. The approach employed for the gathering of data for this study was multi-disciplinary and local knowledge centered. Focus Group Discussions, household surveys, stakeholder consultative meetings, seminars and workshops and biophysical observations were the methods and tools employed in obtaining the needed data. Communities selected within the Volta Basin comprised Bawku West (Kokori through Aring to Binaba), Namdan District (from Sakote through Pelungu to Damolgo), Jirapa District (from Tuggo through Konzokala to Wulling) and Lawra District (from Dasuuri through Eramon Tangzu to Bompari). Findings from the study revealed that communities within the area of study relied on natural and human modified ecosystems to sustain and maintain human lives. The findings however established that traditional laws often provided land for women, wives, and widows through means other than, for instance, equal land shares on inheritance. Systemic gender biases existed in the form of customs, beliefs, attitudes and laws that confined women to cultivating some type of crops within the study communities. Also, most communities have lost their livestock as a result of theft and some farm fields have been destroyed by cattle grazing, making it difficult to access organic manure for farming resulting in the use of chemical fertilizer. Therefore, to ensure positive contribution of the ecosystems to food security, the study recommends that government should create regulations that strengthen tenure security in the majority of the studied locations. Also, efforts should be made to document and publicize benefits of gender inclusion in ecosystem service utilization. Studies should also be conducted on human attitudes and perceptions regarding ecosystem services as a tool for understanding the complex problems associated with environmental change in the context of cultural landscapes. Promote joint planning and consensus building with Fulani, farmers, decision makers and livestock owners to help solve the issue on livestock theft and over grazing.
