Variability in body weight and morphology of Uganda’s indigenous goat breeds across agroecological zones
(PLOS ONE, 2024-01-02)Indigenous goat breeds in Uganda are classified based on average body size parameters and coat color. However, variations in the body size of animals may be influenced by several factors, including management and the ... -
Variations in Greenhouse Gas Fluxes in Response to Short-Term Changes in Weather Variables at Three Elevation Ranges, Wakiso District, Uganda
(MDPI, 2019-11-14)Weather conditions are among the major factors leading to the increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes from the agricultural soils. In this study, variations in the soil GHG fluxes with precipitation and soil temperatures ... -
Variations in nutrient composition and oil stability of oyster nuts (telfairia pedata) across different agro- climatic conditions in Northern Tanzania
(NM-AIST, 2021-07)In sub-Saharan Africa, nutrient deficiency remains a challenge. The challenge is partly due to the underutilization of available nutrient sources and failure to optimize nutrients based on agroclimatic conditions. Oys ... -
Variations in nutrient composition of oyster nuts (Telfairia pedata) across different agro-climatic conditions
