The availability of slow-moving elements within the plant is very important for the growth and productivity of crops, the most important of which are calcium and boron, and the deficiency of any of them leads to a significant imbalance in growth and productivity. This experiment was conducted inside a greenhouse at the National Organic Agriculture Center, Unaiza, Qassim, Ministry of Environment Water and Agriculture, Saudi Arabia to investigations made on the effects of foliar applications levels of calcium (Ca) and boron (B) on yield and quality of strawberries ( Fragaria X ananassa Duch .). Factorial experiment was used in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four levels of calcium (Ca1=100, Ca2 = 200, Ca3= 400 mg/l), and four levels of boron (B1= 5, B2= 10, B3= 20 mg/l), as well as control treatment (C=0), each treatment was replicated three times. Different treatments with different combinations of both elements were studied. Addition of B and Ca influence vegetative growth parameters, yield attributes and fruit quality parameters significantly compare to the control such as the percentages of Glucose%, Fructose%, vitamin C and Sucrose%. Therefore, results indicated that sprays of mixture contained calcium and boron at different levels of Ca2B1, Ca1B1 and Ca3B1 increased fruit diameter, fruit length, weight /plant, and total weight (g), while with Ca3B1 and Ca3B2 were showed high increment of sugar percentages. According to results authors recommended foliar application of combination of calcium and boron as follow Ca2B1, Ca3B1 and Ca3B2 to improve yield attributes and fruit quality parameters.

植物体内流动缓慢的元素的可用性对作物的生长和生产力非常重要，其中最重要的是钙和硼，其中任何一种的缺乏都会导致生长和生产力的严重失衡。本试验在沙特阿拉伯环境、水和农业部国家有机农业中心的温室内进行，旨在研究叶面施用钙(Ca)和硼(B)水平对草莓(Fragaria X ananassa Duch .)产量和品质的影响。因子试验采用随机完全区组设计(RCBD)， 4个水平的钙(Ca1=100, Ca2 = 200, Ca3= 400 mg/l)和4个水平的硼(B1= 5, B2= 10, B3= 20 mg/l)以及对照处理(C=0)，每个处理重复3次。研究了两种元素不同组合的处理方法。与对照相比，添加B和Ca显著影响了葡萄的营养生长参数、产量属性和果实品质参数，如葡萄糖%、果糖%、维生素C和蔗糖%。结果表明，不同浓度Ca2B1、Ca1B1和Ca3B1钙硼混合喷施后，果实直径、果长、株重和总重(g)均有所增加，而Ca3B1和Ca3B2喷施后，含糖量增幅较大。结果表明，叶面施用钙硼配施Ca2B1、Ca3B1和Ca3B2可改善产量性状和果实品质参数。关键词:草莓，叶面施用，钙，硼，有机水培DOI: 10.7176/JBAH/13-18-03出版日期:2023年10月31日

Foaming was observed in mandarin and orange species that were grafted on rootstocks trifoliata ( Poncirus trifoliata ) hybrids and was investigated in terms of phytopathological causes in the Cukurova region, where 80% of Turkey's citrus production takes place. Citrus exocortis viroid (CEVd) and citrus cachexia viroid (CCaVd) agents were screened by RT-PCR method by taking samples from different citrus rootstocks and cultivars showing foamy bark symptoms. It was determined that 17 of the 49 isolates were infected with CEVd and 14 of them were infected with CCaVd. There are 4 trees infected by both viroid agents at the same time. Based on a blast analysis, it was found that the reference genomes for CEVd and CCaVd in the NCBI GenBank had 95-100%. To check on the presence of bacterial and fungal agents, isolates were created from the foamy bark tissue of citrus trees . Lasiodiplodia theobromae , Ilyonectria liriodendri , Fusarium pseudonygamai , Alternaria alternata , and Streptomyces spp . were found as a result of the isolations. Analysis of soil samples taken from citrus plantations that had indications of foamy bark revealed a high calcareous soil structure with a pH above 7.5.

The Agricultural sector continues to be a major employer of Ugandan citizens with an estimated 68.1% of the population engaged in agriculture, forestry and fishing (Uganda National Household Survey [UNHS], 2019/2020). The government of Uganda prioritises the agricultural sector and emphasises agro-industrialisation as the first thematic area in the third national development plan (National Planning Authority [NPA], 2020). The third Uganda national development plan particularly seeks to affirm the dominance of as a source of livelihood leading to the long term aspiration of increasing household incomes and improving the quality of life. Similarly, the East African Community vision 2050 seeks to promote value addition through agro-processing and globally; the sustainable development goals envisage ending hunger, achieving food security, improving nutrition and promoting sustainable agriculture by the year 2030 (United Nations – Sustainable Development Goals [UN-SDGs], 2015). Notably, the national, regional and global aspirations require trained human resources in the agricultural sector for the achievement of the desired targets. However, student enrolment in agricultural subjects is too low to create that critical mass of agricultural specialists in the sector. The total student enrolment in agricultural subjects is estimated at a mere 2577 students out of the 275,254 enrolled in higher education institutions (National Council for Higher Education [NCHE] (State of Higher Education), 2018/2019). Irrespective of the specialised area of training at higher education, graduates ordinarily take employment opportunities from different sectors at the earliest open opportunity.The article, therefore, has the objective of establishing the destinations of students who graduated from agricultural subjects. Precisely the article focuses on the following objectives; establishing the employment status of agricultural graduates from higher education institutions; ascertaining the employment sectors of agricultural graduates in relation to their field of training; establishing incomes ranges of agricultural graduates and determine the additional skills’ set for agricultural graduates to enhance their service delivery.

The African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, is a major cultured food fish in Nigeria because of its fast growth, good feed conversion, hardiness, and high market value. However, one of the problems facing catfish production is the high cost of fish feed caused by the escalating cost of fishmeal, the main protein source in fish feeds. In Nigeria, the raw material for fish feed formulation such as under-utilized “trash” fish, groundnut cake, palm kernel cake and soybeans are becoming increasingly expensive. The sustainability of the catfish culture industry, therefore, depends on reducing the fishmeal content of fish feeds by finding alternative protein sources of good nutritional quality that are readily available and more cost effective than fishmeal.

Tomato, a vegetable crop of immense importance in the diet and economy of Nigeria requires better agronomic practices for optimum performance. Three trials were conducted in Ogbomoso and Mokwa, between 2012 and 2014 cropping seasons to assess the effect of pinching, mineral fertilizers and mulching on growth and fruit yield of tomato. Correlation analysis was done using statistical SAS package to determine one and two tailed differences among growth and yield parameters. In experiment one, the parameters had positive and negative significant relationship with each other. Fruit weight of tomato had positive significant relationship with total fruit yield with the highest (r=0.95) among other parameters at P≤0.01. In experiment two, the highest degree of association was from fruit length which positively correlated with fruit diameter, fruit weight and total fruit yield obtained from (r=0.76) at P≤0.01. Experiment three recorded the highest degree of association from parameters of fruit weight of tomato which was positive and significantly correlated with total fruit yield (r=0.100) at P≤0.01. Therefore, it can be recommended that for better performance of tomato fruit weight and total fruit yield should be positive and significantly correlated with each other at P≤0.01.
