National Root Crops Research Institute Umudike Abia State Corresponding Authors’ email:[email protected] Abstract The study determined factors influencing decision to embark on multiple income generating activities by male and female headed cassava based farm households in Umuahia Agricultural Zone of Abia state. Data for this study was collected using a Purposive and multistage random sampling techniques for the selection of 144 cassava- based farm households (consisting of 72 male-headed and 72 female-headed). Primary data was elicited by use of a pre-tested and structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and probit regression analytical model. The composition of total income from different income sources in male and female- headed cassava based farm households revealed that all male and female- headed cassava farm households earned income primarily from farming, which accounted for 48.07% and 56.69% of annual total incomes in male and female- headed cassava farm households respectively. Important factors that influenced decision to engage in multiple income generation activities by male and female headed farm households in the study area were age and annual profit. Household size, education, access to credit, and value of tangible income generating assets were important factors influencing decision to engage in multiple income generating activities among the male farmers and farm size and livestock number for the female farmer.

  • Case Study of Ikwuano, Abia State, Nigeria

Chukwu*, Tessy U. Madu, Emilia C. Chinaka and Nkoli H. Anyaegbunam National Root Crops Research Institute, Umudike, P.M.B. 7006, Umuahia, Abia State, Nigeria. Accepted 3 January, 2013 Soil resource illiteracy and a weak link between agricultural research and farmers are major problems limiting agricultural development in Nigeria. Pedologists provide interpretative soil maps (land capability classification and soil fertility maps) that will enable potential land users to appreciate the advantages and limitations of the soil resource base that is utilized for agricultural production. Such maps are visual aids to facilitate effective communication between extensionists and farmers, in an effort to (1) adopt appropriate land and agronomic management practices, (2) increase productivity and (3) enhance the efficiency of resource use in agricultural production. This approach was illustrated using Ikwuano Local Government Area (LGA) of Abia State, Nigeria, as a case study. Key words: Pedologists, interpretative soil maps, agro-technology transfer, Ikwuano LGA, Nigeria. INTRODUCTION Nigerian agriculture, and indeed African agriculture, has effective agro-technology transfer between areas with failed to meet the continuously changing needs of the similar and/or different soils. There is a clear need for citizenry. Persistent food insecurity and failure of linking soil (pedological) science with extension agriculture to supply adequate quantities of raw materials education.

V., Awurum I. N., Nwoke B. E. B, Chinaka A. A., Tony-Njoku. R. F., Egeruoh A. S & Nwakor, F. N Univercity of Education Owerri, Nigeria Abstract- Prevalence of intestinal helminth infections in primary schools in Isuochi town, Abia State Nigeria was surveyed in two randomly selected primary schools, between April and September 2012. Stool samples of 200 pupils (110 males, 90 females), aged 6-9 years, were examined microscopically by using wet mount (normal saline) and concentrated saturated sodium chloride floatation techniques. Seven intestinal helminths, AscarisIumbricoides, Hookworm, Trichuristri- chiura, Strongyloidesstercoralis, Enterobiusvermicularis, Schistoso- mamansoni and Taeniaspp, were identified with 150(75%) of the 200 pupils infected with one or a combination of the worms. Hookworm had the highest prevalence (37.84%) followed by A. lumbricoides (24.32%), T. trichiura(14.86%), E. vermicularis(8.11%), S. stercoralis and T. spp have (6.76%) infection rate respectively while S. mansonihas the lowest rate of infection (2.70%).

  • Leather Wares Factories in Aba, Nigeria: Challenges and Way-Forward
    LEATHER WARES FACTORIES IN ABA, NIGERIA: CHALLENGES AND WAY-FORWARD * 1 Ezinwa, Vincent Chi and Ikechukwu, Arinze Ernest General Studies Division Enugu State University of Science and Technology, Agbani Enugu State, Nigeria * Corresponding Author, Mobile: +234-806-840-8448, Email: [email protected] 1 Mobile: +234-803-099-9822, Email: [email protected] Abstract Ariaria International Market in Aba, Abia State of Nigeria houses a cluster of leatherworks factories that manufacture exported wares. Except their challenges are addressed, they are going down. The study was aimed at identifying their challenges and charting the way-forward. Key informant technique was used to elicit data from 17 respondents. The data were analyzed with the help of simple statistical tools. Results showed high exchange rate and other costs of importation of machinery and raw materials was a key challenge. Other challenges include lack of entrepreneurial spirit in graduate youths, poor doing business facilities and infrastructure, irregular electricity power supply, competition from imported goods, and lopsided development. Others are policy reversals, high and double taxation, difficulties in procuring business approval from government, high inflation rate, and unstable foreign exchange rate, in addition to corruption and fraud. The study recommends government encouragement of the leatherworks sub-sector with the right equipment and support. Keywords: Economic diversification, Leather wares factories, Aba, Nigeria Sustainable Human Development Review, Vol. 9, No. 3, Sept., 2017 Introduction Enterprises constitute the driving force for economic development and generate 60-70% of domestic employment. They can achieve equitable and sustainable industrial diversification in developing economies, like Nigeria, which is among the poorest countries in the world and experienced economic recession in 2017.

  • Electrical Resistivity Survey to Investigate Causes of Borehole Failure in Ikwuano/Umuahia Area of Abia State of Nigeria

There have been several cases of rampant borehole failure within the area. Some boreholes give out poor yield at certain periods of the year; many others go dry shortly after well completion while some do not show any indication of water presence after drilling several meters of depth in the subsurface. The wasted resources added more hardship to the prevailing water scarcity and thus make life very unbearable for the people. Vertical electrical sounding (VES) technique using Schlumberger configuration was employed to carry out electrical resistivity surveys to determine the causative geological/geophysical factors that give rise to the problem. Data sets of both productive and non-productive boreholes were acquired together with global positioning system (GPS) measurements to investigate the problem of borehole failure within the study area.
