Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparison of Selected Soil Chemical Properties of Two Different Mangrove Forests in SarawakEmpi Rambok, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Despite few studies of forest health and environmental conditions of mangrove forest in Sarawak, the data was not sufficient to facilitate baseline data and direct comparison of mangrove forest health obtained for different location of mangrove forest in Sarawak. On this regard, determination of contemporary mangrove soil condition was essential to addressing mangrove forest for forest health, carbon … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2010 · 9,648 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn-Farm Phenotypic Characterization of Sheep Breeds in BotswanaKaelo Pelotshweu, Monosi Andries Bolowe, Nicodemus Pungi Mosweu et al.Phenotypic characterization data serve as a baseline for the evaluation of the effectiveness of selection programs and the development of conservation strategies. Therefore, this study aimed to phenotypically characterize Tswana, Dorper, Damara, Meat-master, and Karakul sheep breeds in Botswana under a ranch management system. Qualitative and quantitative data was collected from 595 adult sheep (one year and above). Data on … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 1 Mar 2025 · 7,311 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhenotypic Diversity of South African Indigenous Goat Population in Selected Rural AreasTlou Caswell Chokoe, Tlou Cornelia Matelele, Ayanda Maqhashu et al.Phenotypic characterisation of indigenous goat populations is crucial in providing information on goat types and their attributes and may play an important role as guideline for conservation and sustainable us of these resources. The objective of this study was to characterise indigenous goat populations in rural areas of South Africa. Appearance of indigenous goat phenotypes and their typical features were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2020 · 8,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Selected Chemical Properties of Peat Swamp Soil Before and After Timber HarvestingMuhamad Ismawi Salimin, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Peat swamp is an important component of the world’s wetlands. Once they are disturbed the tendency for the soil degradation is very high. This study compared selected chemical properties of a peat swamp soil before and after timber harvesting. Approach: Peat soil samples were taken at 0-15 cm depth in 6 plots with 0.1 ha each plot at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2010 · 8,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Chemical Properties on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: It is important to investigate the seriousness of degradation of peat swamp forest caused by skidding system in terms of its function as a carbon sink. In this study, we formulated assumptions that conditions of our research site before the introduction of skidding system were in their natural states, thus that changes measured are clearly caused by skidding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Enhancing Urea-Humic Acid Mixture with Refined Acid Sulphate SoilMohd Taufik Mohd Yusuff, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Acid Sulphate Soil (ASS) is a problem soil partly because of its high acidity. This low pH could be exploited to reduce ammonia loss from urea by reducing soil microsite pH. The use Humic Acid (HA) to control ammonia loss from urea has been reported but the cost of this material is high. This laboratory study compared the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Mixing Urea with Humic Acid and Acid Sulphate Soil on Ammonia Loss, Exchangeable Ammonium and Available NitrateMohd Taufik Mohd Yusuff, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab MajidProblem statement: Ammonia loss due to rapid hydrolysis of urea in soil following surface application can be substantial. Ammonia loss in agriculture is estimated to be 1 to 60%. This laboratory study compared the effect of three different urea-humic acid-acid sulphate soil mixtures on NH3 loss and soil ammonium and nitrate contents, with loss from surface applied urea without additives … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimple and Rapid Method of Isolating Humic Acids from Tropical Peat Soils (Saprists)Shamsuddin Rosliza, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Kasim Susilawati et al.Problem Statement: The isolation (extraction, fractionation and purification) of humic acids (HA) from soils is laborious, time consuming and expensive. The extraction, fractionation and purification periods of these substances vary from 12 h-7 days. In order to facilitate production of HA at competitive cost, this study was conducted to investigate whether a simple and rapid procedure could be developed for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,552 accessesView PDFCite
