Cluster Based Improved Bread Wheat Technologies Popularization In Yem-Special District, Southern Ethiopia
Abstract: Despite large area under cultivation, the mean yield of wheat per hectare is low.Limited access to improved wheat varieties and other relevant technologies is one of the contributing factor for low productivity. Popularization of better perfoerming wheat varieties is important to solve these problems. Therefore, these studies was undertaken to enhance the productivity of wheat through demonstrating early maturing and high yielding wheat varieties with improved management practices in 2023 …

Desho and Elephant Grass Strips for Soil Erosion Control in Sankura District, South Central Ethiopia
Abstract: The decline of soil fertility mainly through soil erosion constrained the agricultural productivity in south-central Ethiopia. The present study has been initiated to answer the question of which grass strips control the soil and nutrient losses when integrated with wheat. Based on the severity of soil erosion,three treatments namely Desho, Elephant, and control were compared for consecutive two years. The result implies that Desho grass controls soil loss by 6.5% …

Detrimental Effect of Mobile Phone Radiation on Living Organisms: An Update Review
Abstract: Mobile phone has raised the risk of the tissue-level damage for all living organisms not only for human and animals but plants as well. Numerous studies have documented various biological effects of EMR including changes in cell proliferation, enzyme activity, gene expression, cell-membrane permeability and ion homeostasis as well as oxidative stress and heat-shock response. A modulated field at 900 MHz strongly inhibited the growth of and, to some extent, …
