Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCritical Amino Acid and Energy Balancing to Address MaizeGrade Variation in Broiler PerformanceMd. Shahidur Rahman, Muhammad Farhad Hossain, Million Maksuda et al.This study aimed to evaluate the effects of maize grade variationin broiler performance. A total of 189 Cobb 500 broilers were randomly andevenly assigned to three dietary treatments having three replications of 21 birds each. The treatments were: T0 (feed formulated with grade-A maize), T1 (feed formulated with grade-B maize, with Metabolizable Energy (ME) deficiencies compensated by additional Soybean Oil … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 10 Jul 2025 · 2,958 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Study of the Effects of Soil Salinity on the Growth and Development of Maize (Zea Mays L.) by using Sentinel-2 ImageryShakhislam Uzakbaevich Laiskhanov, Zhassulan Maratuly Smanov, Kulyash Duisenbaevna Kaimuldinova et al.Salinization of soil cover and the constant increase in their area have become one of the most pressing problems year after year for irrigated agriculture regions. The degradation processes caused by the salinity of soils negatively affect the growth and development of food crops. Therefore, this study focused on the effects of soil salinity in the midstream of the Syrdarya … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2022 · 6,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleManagement of Source-Sink Balance for Maintaining Seed Vigor and Storability of MaizeSirinthorn Kaewchuai, Pitipong Thobunluepop, Sutkhet Nakasathien et al.Defoliation was the major factor which directly affected to maize seed yield and quality basis on source-sink relationship. Thus, the objectives were to study the effect of source-sink balance management on corn seed vigor and storability and to determine the effect of defoliation treatments on maize yield, yield components and produced seed germination traits. The experiment was arranged basis on … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 9 Jul 2021 · 6,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIntercropping Agricultural Practices by Improving Maize Early Growth Process: A Bio-Statistical ApproachDago Dougba Noel, Tuo Yalamoussa, Niamien Coffi Jean Magloire et al.Fertile soil pressure represents a crucial concern vis-à-vis of agricultural crop yield improvement in several southern countries. Environmental concerns and soil low fertility as well as a rapid demographic development and as well intensive industrial exploitation with regard ground resource, drastically contribute in reducing agricultural land availability. We believe that multiple culture and/or intercropping experimentation designs, integration in southern countries … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 25 May 2019 · 8,390 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSeparation and Identification of Two Fungal Strains in Stored MaizeXiaoyu Yue, Lynne McLandsborough, Jian Zou, Xueqin GaoThe microbiological spoilage of stored grain is important for human health and economic loss. Two major predominant grain spoilage fungi (M15 and M16) were isolated from maize from a granary in China. Morphological observation of the fungal isolates, analysis of their ITS sequences and construction of their phylogenetic trees were conducted on these two strains, which were identified as Fusarium … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 3 Aug 2017 · 7,331 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImpact of Microfinance on the Efficiency of Maize Producers in NigeriaMuhammad Auwal Ahmed, Zainalabidin Mohamed, Abdullahi Iliyasu, Golnaz RezaiThe study applies descriptive analysis, Slacks-Based Measure (SBM) of efficiency model and fractional regression model to data collected in 2016 using cross-sectional survey of maize producers in Nigeria. The purpose was to determine the impact of microfinance on the technical efficiency of maize producers and evaluates factors that influence inefficiency among credit beneficiaries and non-credit beneficiaries. Results show that the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 30 May 2017 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
