Soil samples were collected randomly from Cassava farm, Bamboo field, Fallow land and sparse grassland and were analysed for moisture content, particle size distribution, textural class, organic matter content, permeability and aggregate structure using oven drying method, sieve analysis, triangular chart, and permeability/soil type table. Laboratory results were subjected to statistical analyses. Narrow variation was seen in all the particle size distribution (ranged from 25.10 – 35.15) with samples from sparse grass land vegetation having the least value (35.20), samples from cassava farm and bamboo field had their values as 35.15 and 29.40 respectively. The clay, silt and MC had a negative non-significant relationship with the erodibility status with values of correlation -.412, -.532 and -.836 respectively. While sand percentage content had a positive non significant relationship with erodibility factor K having the values of .670. OMC percentage content had a high positive significant relationship with erodibility factor K, with the value of correlation as 1.000**. There was a high level of significance between clay, silt, sand, OMC, and MC with values of correlation as -.753**, -.714**, -.831**, and .955** respectively. -

A combination of purposive and multistage sampling techniques was used in selecting 360 fish farmers for this study while a structured questionnaire was designed and used for data collection. Our results show that a total of 3,360 jobs were generated from fish production, fish marketing, processing and distribution as well as inputs distribution. Farmers used the income realized from fish farming to acquire assets such as land, cars, motorcycles, buildings and household facilities and provision of education to their children. High cost of feed and other inputs (92.2%) was the major challenge facing fish farming.Keywords: Research and technology on alternative cost-effective sources of feed and other inputs in the region be explored.

By UCHENDU E.E1, MADUBUIKE C.N2, OKEREKE C.D2, OKEREKE N.A.A2 1. Department of Agric. Engineering Federal Polytechnic Nekede 2. Department of Agric. Engineering Federal University Of Technology Owerri Corresponding Author: Uchendu E.E.E-mail: [email protected] or [email protected] ABSTRACT In this study groundwater contaminants in Imo state made up of twenty-seven local government areas were investigated. Four (4) groundwater samples were collected from each local government area. This amounted to one hundred and eight (108) samples from the three senatorial zones of the state namely Owerri, Orlu and Okigwe. These samples were collected randomly from sites close to dump sites, septic tanks, Abattoirs, mechanic village, fertilized agricultural farms, industrial areas, clusters and from sites far away from perceived sources of contamination. To avoid contamination from tanks, the samples were collected at the well head, before water enters into tanks. Three (3) liters of water were collected from sample after pumping for about 3-5 minutes to ensure collection of representative samples. Well drained plastic containers tightly corked were used in collecting samples to minimize contamination that could alter the water constituents. The groundwater samples were tested for quality under physio-chemical and microbiological parameters using standard water quality methods. Water sample (1L) in the first container in each ground water was used for microbial test. -

The results revealed that the area Accepted: 7 February 2017 is underlain by multi geoelectric layers with about 6 to 9 Published: 25 February 2017 lithological units identified. The aquiferous layer is composed mainly of fine sand and sandstone units with low resistivity values recorded in Owerri West Area. The resistivity values ranged from 0.6Ωm to 1100.8Ωm. The depth to the water table varied across the area with surface elevation and ranged from 16.80m to 85.6m. Similarly, the aquifer thickness www.ijsrm.humanjournals.com ranged from 13.23m to 111.56m. -

A total of ten (10) geoelectric soundings were acquired. Schlumberger electrode configuration was used in acquiring the data. Six to seven geoelectric layers were delineated from the interpreted results, the Aquifers were delineated between the fifth and sixth geoelectric layers, having an apparent resistivity above 1000Ωm, with the highest thick of 69.0m at a depth of 144.0m. Longitudinal Conductance, Hydraulic Conductivity, Transmissivity and Product Conductance range are as followings for the aquifers; 1.720 – 127.000 x 10-3Ω-1, 15.90 – 188.79m/day, 1093.3 – 1097.1m2/day and 2.590 – 252.50 x 10-3 respectively. Inferring from our hydraulic parameters, all the aquiferous zones have very high designation, wwithdrawal of great regional importance of groundwater supply potential and practically noncorrosive, soil corrosivity. 40% percentage of the aquiferous units have very good protective capacity, while for excellent and good protective capacity of the study are is 30%. All the VES points are said to be a very viable potential for safe source for groundwater exploration. -
