Across the world, a heavenly use of chemical fertilizer is major environmental issue in agricultural fields for sustainable growth of plants. Hence, the chemical fertilizers show adverse environmental effects in human life along with degrade the quality of soil fertility and polluting the water. So there is a need to develop an alternative approach to minimize the high consumption of chemical f...

The aim of the present investigation was to investigate the nutritional yield, nutrient density, stability, and adaptability of organically produced wheat for sustainable and nutritional high value food production. This study evaluated the nutritional yield of four minerals (Fe, Zn, Cu, and Mg) in 19 wheat genotypes, selected as being locally adapted under organic agriculture conditions. The ne...

In recent years, the high rate of conversion of wetlands for agriculture has raised environmental concerns in Uganda. A study was therefore conducted to identify issues that need to be addressed if communities are to continue deriving livelihoods from wetland agriculture, without causing stress to the wetlands of Lake Victoria basin.
