Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptation and Use of the Gangaria Seed Drill for the Improvement of Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) Cultivation in Niger: Case of the Maradi and Zinder RegionsAbdoulahi Mamane, Arifa Warouma et al.In Niger, peanut cultivation plays a significant role in food security and improving the incomes of rural households, particularly in the Maradi and Zinder regions. However, this crop remains hampered by low mechanization, the use of traditional tools, and inefficient fertilization, resulting in consistently low yields of around 600 to 800 kg/ha. Faced with these constraints, this study aims to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2026 · 2,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Usability of IoT-Based Smart Farming for Sustainable Organic AgricultureArisaphat Suttidee, Pankom Sriboonlue, Sompoch Tongnamtiang, Varitha LakkhamThis study evaluates the usability of an IoT-based smart farming system developed to support organic agriculture in Thailand. Many small-scale farmers still spend considerable time manually monitoring soil conditions and managing irrigation, often without access to practical technology. This slows farm operations and makes efficient water use more difficult. To address these challenges, the system was designed with wireless soil-moisture … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 7 Dec 2025 · 3,390 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPleural Effusion Detection Using Optimized Pretrained ModelsRehab Fathi Ibrahim, Nashwa Mohamed Elsayed et al.Pleural effusion is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pleural cavity, posing a significant thoracic issue with various causes. Even with a variety of diagnostic techniques, accurate diagnosis remains challenging. Delays in diagnosis and treatment heighten the risks of the disease. In this paper, we introduce a novel approach by leveraging the Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) to systematically optimize … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 8 · 17 Oct 2025 · 2,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Enhanced Algorithm for Small Object Detection based on Thermal Imaging Using YOLOv8-EPBRavina Gupta, Sarika Jain, Manoj KumarObject detection is one of the most important and challenging problems in the computer vision domain. Using the power of deep models, researchers have carefully explored and made significant contributions to increasing the effectiveness of object detection and related tasks, such as object identification, localization, and segmentation. This progress is due to the rapid progress of deep learning in the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2025 · 4,212 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSM-SCAM YOLO: Enhancing Object Detection with Multi-Scale Module and Spatial Channel Attention MechanismShanmuga Sundari Mariyappan, Kayalvizhi Mohan, K. B. K. S. DurgaDetecting tiny objects remains a significant hurdle in computer vision, primarily due to scale variation, occlusion, and the loss of detail in low-resolution features. Although YOLO-based detectors are popular for their speed and efficiency in real-time tasks, they often struggle with accurately identifying small objects because of information loss during downsampling. This study introduces an improved YOLO-based model that integrates … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 6 · 12 Jun 2025 · 3,921 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency and Sustainability of Alternative Protein Sources for Livestock Production in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review and Meta-AnalysisOlusegun Oyebade Ikusika, Bulo Luvuyo, Jaja Ishmeal FestusSub-Saharan Africa (SSA) faces growing challenges in sustainable livestock production due to high costs and limited availability of conventional protein sources such as soybean meal and fishmeal. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the nutritional efficiency and sustainability of locally available alternative protein sources for livestock feed in SSA. Following PRISMA guidelines, systematic searches were conducted across five databases (PubMed, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 19 Feb 2026 · 1,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEconomic Analysis of Honey Production in Chitwan District, NepalSushmita Bhatta, Suraksha Baral, Jay Prakash DattaApiculture is being practiced in Nepal from time immemorial. Economic analysis of honey production in Chitwan district was carried out to analyze profitability along with resource use efficiency in different enterprise system of beekeeping. The Categorization of beekeepers was done according to the number of beehives as small, medium and large. A total of 60 beekeepers were proportionately selected which … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 3 Jan 2021 · 8,676 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of a Pressure Cooker for Homemade High-Temperature Sterilization of RendangDaimon Syukri, Rini, Risa Meutia Fiana et al.This study aimed to analyze the impact of pressure cooker (presto) sterilization on the nutritional value and microbial content of rendang, a traditional Indonesian meat dish. The evaluated parameters included moisture content, ash content, fat content, protein content, and total plate count (TPC), measured before and after a 40-minute sterilization process. The results showed a moderate increase in moisture (from … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 28 Jun 2025 · 3,264 accessesView PDFCite
