Accepted 19 June, 2020. Growing of useful plant species in home gardens has a long tradition in various cultural groups but the value of traditional home-gardening in the conservation and management of plant species by indigenous people of Benue State has not been evaluated. The study there for sought to assess the floristic composition of home gardens and their diversity in order to investigate the conservation importance of home gardens through domestication. The study area was Benue State. Two (2) Local government areas from each of the three ecological zones of the State were randomly selected for the study. Data were collected by identifying and listing the plant species found in each home garden. Descriptive statistics and Simpson diversity index were used to analyse the data collected. The diversity indices of plant species found in home gardens in Benue State ranged from 0.01‒0.50. Plant species with diversity indices of 0.50 were considered to be the most diverse species. Those with Simpson diversity indices of 0.01 were considered to be the least diverse. The highest number of plant species were found in Vandeikya (57) followed by Katsina-Ala and Ogbadibo with a total of 47 plants each.

E-mail: [email protected] Adeniyi Boluwaji OJO Mr. – University of Agriculture Makurdi Address: Department of Forest Production and Products, 970001, Nigeria E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This study examined occupational hazards in small-scale sawmills in three Local Government Areas (Makurdi, Gwer west and Gwer east) in Benue state, Nigeria. A total of ten sawmills were sampled and visited. Ten copies of well-structured questionnaire were distributed in each sawmills to elicit information on the hazards supported by workers due to sawmill activities. Results on hazards in sawmills revealed that Destiny, Ire Akari, and Segun sawmills had 100% accident victims, followed by Igbor (87.5%) Hafilla (83.3%) Adekola (77.8%) Apir and Mase (71.4%), and 60% in Ogo Oluwa and El-matandi respectively. High rate of accident was recorded in Gwer East (93.7%) followed by Gwer West (78.9%) and Makurdi (71.4%). The most injuries registered were Laceration, sprain and strain, 41.65% in Gwer East, 30.13% in Gwer West and 28.6% in Makurdi. Fracture was more frequent in Gwer East (22.9%) and Gwer West (9.53%).

  • Report on Mapping Livelihoods and Nutrition in Nigeria
    REPORT ON MAPPING LIVELIHOODS AND NUTRITION IN NIGERIA USING DATA FROM THE NATIONAL RURAL LIVELIHOODS SURVEY AND THE NATIONAL FOOD CONSUMPTION AND NUTRITION SURVEY Christopher Legg, Patrick Kormawa, Bussie Maziya-Dixon, Richardson Okechukwu, Sam Ofodile and Tunrayo Alabi International Institute for Tropical Agriculture Ibadan, Nigeria Abstract Poverty and malnutrition are persistent problems in Africa. Alleviation of these closely-related socio- economic problems must be guided by knowledge of their spatial distribution and relationships to biophysical and development factors. Two country-wide surveys, one on rural livelihoods, poverty and food demand, and the other on food consumption and child nutrition, were carried out in Nigeria by IITA, and the results mapped in order to assist interpretation.The lack of reliable recent census statistics in Nigeria complicates the process of mapping socio-economic variables. The Small Area Estimation technique has been adapted for regression of poverty and nutrition indicators against biophysical and socio-economic variables such as rainfall, soil fertility and travel time to markets and applied to groups of Nigerian States. Where no significant correlation was observed, values were interpolated geostatistically. Preliminary maps of poverty and nutrition are presented, and relationships of these indices to each other and to biophysical and socioeconomic factors is discussed. Introduction The FAO Status of Food Insecurity (SOFI) 2000 report (FAO, 2000) revealed a dramatic reduction in undernourishment levels in Nigeria, from 44% of the population in '79-'81, to 16% in '90-'92 down to 8% in '96-'98. This development was largely attributed to efforts such as IITA’s breeding and multiplication programmes with specific reference to staple foods such as cassava.

  • Idoma, Tiv in Agatu, Kwande Local Government Areas of Benue State
    International Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences Vol. 19 No. 6 Published by Cambridge Research and Publications September, 2020. THE CONSEQUENCES OF CONFLICTS AMONGT FULANI/ IDOMA, TIV IN AGATU, KWANDE LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREAS OF BENUE STATE ABDULLAH DANLAMI MAMMAN The Federal Polytechnic Bali Taraba State ABSTRACT The communal conflict between the nomadic herdsmen from northern Nigeria and the agrarian communities of Benue has escalated in recent times and is spreading across boundaries, threating the country’s security and stability. The paper assessed the conflict between herdsmen and farmers in Agatu/ Kwande local government areas of Benue state. A total of 100 heads of farming households and 100 herdsmen from areas that have experienced farmer herder’s conflict were purposively selected. The study examined conflict, focusing on the economic, social developments and political dimensions. A multi stage cluster sampling was adopted in selecting 200 respondents were used as the sample size for the study in looking at the consequences of conflict among Idoma,Tiv/Fulani on the economic and social developments in Agatu, Kwande of Benue State. The study adopted both quantitative and qualitative methods of data collection. Two instruments that were used were the questionnaire and in-depth (IDI) guide. Some of the major findings or consequences of the research include; consequences like house breaking, ethnic strife, stagnation of business activities, low agricultural output, and scarcity of housing infrastructure while non-implementation of committee reports, were some of the main reasons for the persistent conflict. The test of hypotheses for the study revealed for hypothesis one that there is no association between level of education and involvement in social conflict.
