Thurow Robert C. M gg' (Chair of Committee) (Member) James E. Christiansen Douglas Loh Robert E. Whitsun (Head of Department) December 1997 Major Subject: Rangeland Ecology and Management ABSTRACT Soil Erosion and Conservation as Affected by Land Use and Land Tenure, El Pital Watershed, Nicaragua. (December 1997) Matilde de los Angeles Somarriba-Chang, B.S. , National Agrarian University, Nicaragua Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Thomas L. Thurow Erosion by water is a serious problem threatening the sustainability of steep land agricultural production throughout the tropics. The El Pital watershed is typical of the many regions within Nicaragua where the effects of erosion are increasingly evident. Analysis of aerial photographs taken in 1968 and 1987, and comparing them with conditions in 1996, indicates that erosion has increased throughout this period and is substantially above the expected geologic "natural" erosion rate for the area. This trend is associated with increased fragmentation of farms associated with the agrarian reform activities of the 1980's, during which many of the large land-holdings were confiscated and redistributed to many peasant families.

Exploration for Bean (Phaseolus) Genetic Resources in Nicaragua December 2007 Technical cooperation between Royal Norwegian Cooperation Utviklingsfondet Centro para la Promoción, la Investigación y el Desarrollo Rural y Social de Nicaragua (CIPRES) Universidad de Costa Rica (UCR) International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) (photo: Rodolfo Araya; #3202, Dpt. Madríz) Technical Report D.G. Debouck 2 Background and Justification Variability is the engine that drives crop productivity up, and bean does not escape this rule, namely when the bean production in Central America can be heavily affected by other competitive producers with the opening up of borders and with markets becoming global. Understanding the extent of the variability is key to make progress in bean breeding and enhance crop productivity (Singh 1999), and in several market classes of common bean (Voysest 2000) – as the small Central American reds – variability has been demonstrated to be very narrow (Beebe et al. 1995; Sonnante et al. 1994). From here, it is very important to know where variability is, and how variability has evolved through the process of crop domestication and during the recent steps of genetic improvement. In this regard, it is worth understanding the structure of the Mesoamerican races of bean ‘Mesoamerica’ and ‘Guatemala’ (Beebe et al. 2000; Díaz & Blair 2006; Singh et al. 1991), and the variability that may exist in native landraces of Nicaragua (Gómez et al. 2004). By the way, race ‘Mesoamerica’ is the one occupying the largest acreage in the world (Singh 1999), and germplasm of Nicaragua has contributed significantly to the progress of bean breeding (Johnson et al.

Countries at the Crossroads 2012: Nicaragua
Countries at the Crossroads COUNTRIES AT THE CROSSROADS 2012: NICARAGUA INTRODUCTION Nicaragua’s November 2011 elections marked a major step forward in President Daniel Ortega’s consolidation of power, and a served as a stark demonstration of the authoritarian tendencies he has exhibited since his return to office in early 2007. A onetime guerrilla leader and the head of the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN) during the1979–1990 Sandinista revolution, Ortega has ruled Nicaragua with increasing disrespect for the constitution, electoral integrity, and the rule of law. In order to run again, he engineered a questionable ruling from the Supreme Court of Justice (CSJ) to eviscerate a constitutional ban on successive terms for sitting presidents, as well as a limitation to two total terms of office.1 Ortega then secured 62 percent of the popular vote, although irregularities were widespread enough to cast doubt on the size of his victory margin. The disputed election also gave his party, the FSLN, 63 of 92 seats in the National Assembly, a majority large enough to pass ordinary legislation, change the constitution, and even call a constitutional assembly. Armed with this supermajority, Ortega is now in a position to govern in the temperamental manner of his ideological brethren in the Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas (ALBA) headed by Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez, who has provided him an economic lifeline since 2007. During his first term as president (1984–1990), Ortega presided over the drafting of a constitution in 1987 that reflected the quasi-socialist character of the revolution, which was marked by wealth redistribution and widespread confiscations of private property.

We report the 29 results of a cross-sectional epidemiological study with a non-probability sampling of 30 blood (n=3050) and urine (n=299) from Domestic Animals (DA) around the sites of 31 human leptospirosis cases in Nicaragua.
