Federal College of Forestry Mechanization, Afaka, Kaduna State, Nigeria Abstract : This study analyse the profitability and constraints of returns analysis has been widely used in research studies. maize production in Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna Sadiq et.al. (2013) employed costs and returns estimates to State. Structured questionnaire was used to generate primary determine profitability and production efficiency of small- data for the study. Descriptive statistics, Net farm income scale maize production in Niger State, Nigeria and reported a analysis, and profitability ratios were employed in the analysis. gross margin income of N 55,191.00 and net farm income of Results revealed that majority of the respondents (99 %) were relatively young and fell within the active age (21 – 60 years). N 48,109.00 respectively with a gross ratio of 0.39 and Male respondents dominated maize production at 87 % and operating ratio of 0.31 indicating that maize production is majorities (81%) of the farmers were married. Results further profitable in the study are . Profitability of maize production revealed that significant (71%) number of the respondents had in Yola North Local Government Area of Adamawa State was below 11 inhabitants in their households. Educationally, 51 % of carried out by Lamba et.al.(2016) using cost and return respondents had post primary education. The net farm income variables, they reported that maize production was a profitable per hectare was N74,606.40 and gross income of N132,000.00 business in the study area with an average variable cost, were obtained per hectare of maize cultivated with a return on average fixed cost, gross margin and net farm income per capital invested determined at 0.57 implying that for every naira hectare of N31, 437.22, N4, 300.00, N23, 910.78 and invested, the farmers makes 57 kobo (N0.57)and the gross ratio was calculated at 0.47 indicating that total farm costs was about N19610.78 respectively. In his study titled analysis of 47% of the gross income which shows that maize production is a resource use efficiency and profitability of maize production viable, beneficial and profitable enterprise in the study area. in some selected agricultural zones of Kaduna State, Nigeria, Major constraints faced by the farmers were poor Ayodeji (2009) reported that maize farming was profitable in transportation, high cost of hired labour, lack of extension the study area with gross margin of N121, 784.75.

Therefore, N170,594.50 was earned from one hectare of maize farm with maize production could be one of the poverty alleviating a return per naira invested of 2.40 indicating that maize enterprise in the study area. It is recommended that: credit production is profitable in the study area.

One person was killed and others, including several secondary school students, were abducted following an attack on the Damba-Kasaya Community in Chikun Local Government Area (LGA), Kaduna State, on Aug. 24. According to local reports, suspected Fulani militia arrived at the community in large numbers on motorcycles at around 7:45 a.m. They invaded the Prince Academy secondary school, where they abducted a teacher identified by Nigerian media as Christiana Madugu and at least four final year students who were preparing for their Junior Secondary School examination. Schools in Kaduna state recently reopened to enable secondary school children to sit their final examinations. The kidnapped children have been named as Happy Odoji, 14, Miracle Danjuma, 13, her sister Favour Danjuma, 9, who was abducted from her home, and Ezra Bako, 15. The abductors later contacted the family of the Danjuma sisters using the teacher’s telephone to confirm they had their children, but made no further demands. The gunmen also broke into the Aminchi Baptist Church, which they set ablaze after destroying musical instruments and the public address system, before abducting other villagers. Witnesses informed local media that the military briefly engaged the assailants and then withdrew for reasons that remain unclear. Unaware of this, villagers continued to pursue the attackers, who opened fire on them, killing a man later identified as Benjamin Auta.

Received 6 July 2015; Accepted 7 August 2015 This study was conducted to determine the awareness, knowledge and practices of pastoralists on contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) in cattle in 3 selected Local Government Areas (LGAs) (Ikara, Chikun and Kauru) of Kaduna State. A cattle population of a minimum of 20 heads was considered as a herd in this study and a total of 90 open and close ended structured questionnaires were designed and administered to all the 90 herdsmen that gave their consent for this study. The study revealed that, the level of awareness of CBPP by the pastoralists was 80 (88.9%) and formal education of 11 (12.2%), while knowledge of CBPP in the communities showed 66 (73.3%). Those that experienced outbreaks, as well as lost animals to CBPP, were 25 (27.8%) and 17 (18.9%), respectively. Of the respondents, 67 (74.4%) admitted vaccinating their cattle at various times, which is not regular, thereby achieving a low vaccination coverage of 36.7%, while, 23 (25.5%) do not vaccinate at all.

    Environmental Policy Update 2012 Environmental Policy Update 2012: Development Strategies and Environmental Policy in East Africa Chapter 3. Crop-Environment Interactions in Sub-Saharan Africa Nicholas J. Papanastassiou 1 Environmental Policy Update 2012: Crop-Environment Interactions in Sub-Saharan Africa By Nicholas J. Papanastassiou Executive Summary Over 200 million people throughout Africa are chronically hungry or malnourished. Low crop yields throughout the continent are a key contributing factor: cereal yields in Africa are 40% below that of the developing world average. This low productivity is caused in part by environmental constraints. Overcoming constraints and ameliorating negative environmental effects associated with crop production is a critical step in Africa’s development. The research question addressed by this chapter is: What are the critical resource requirements and impacts of major crop systems in Sub-Saharan Africa, and what known mitigation and adaptation strategies are available to address them? Based upon an in-depth literature review of peer-reviewed articles, papers, and reports from major agricultural research organizations and scientists, this chapter presents an overview of crop-environment interactions for maize, legumes, and sweet potatoes/yams. Crops in Africa face poor soil fertility as a common pre-harvest constraint. This has caused yield reductions of up to 48% in maize in Tanzania, over 50% for yams in Nigeria, and losses of up to 75% in legumes. Many farmers, especially those growing legumes and yams, do not have access to fertilizers to overcome this. Many crops also face disease infection during production: downy mildew causes up to 80% yield losses in maize, leaf spot causes up to 60% yield losses in legumes, and the sweet potato feathery mottle virus infects up to 100% of sweet potatoes.
