NIGERIA RELEASES HERBICIDE RESISTANT MAIZE HYBRIDS

First generation maize hybrids resistant to metsulfuron methyl herbicide and to the noxious parasitic weed Striga hermonthica have been released by the Nigerian National Variety Release Committee (NVRC). Developed by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) in partnership with DuPont Pioneer Seeds, the hybrids were released as P48W01 and P48W02 and are recognized as IITA IR-Maize Hybrid 2 and IR-Maize Hybrid 4. The hybrids have a yield potential of up to 5 t/ha under Striga infestation in comparison with local varieties that produce less than 1 t/ha in such conditions.

Farmers rank Striga as the number one constraint to maize production in northern Nigeria, with 50 to 100 percent of the households reporting Striga incidence in their farms. The parasitic weed infests more than 9 million hectares planted to millet, maize, and sorghum in Nigeria and severely lowers the production capacity of these crops.

ARE WE SO DUMB, HO HAS HEARD OF NATURAL OCCURING PLANTS THAT HAVE RESISTANCE TO HERBICIDES, WHAT KIND OF FALLACY IS THIS

iF YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE WHAT THEY ARE PROMOTING ARE NOT gmos, you need to wake Up.dont know the international

People don't know most of the so called hybrids are coming from International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) , which is supported and sponsored, and also enjoys joint research from GMO companies like monsanto and co.

DO YOU THINK THEY WOULD BE DUMB AND ANNOUNCE A BIG MOSANTO OFFICE, THEY WOULD BE SMART AND INTRODUCE IT USING RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS ETC

THIS DANGOTE RAISING HYBRIDS, IS A PR STUNT TO GET YOU O FELL COMFORTABLE ABOUT DOING THE SAME THING LIKE DANGOTE ,
WE ARE A BUNCH OF BRAINWASHED TWEETS

TAEpiphany:
But it's being reported he is using HYBRIDS not GMOs.
Let me find a simple way to explain the difference between both

Hybrids can be kind of likened to having a white male mate with black female to produce a mixed race baby - inter-breeding/crossbreeding

GMOs on the other hand could be likened to having a white male mate with a black horse/dog..... To produce God knows what.

Two different things, until you can prove these seeds are GMOs please quit with the propaganda. I will not support GMOs too, but would not get on a blind campaign against something that can potentially benefit Nigerians.

This is a list of new so called hybrids being released,do not be deceived , there is no hybrid that is resistant to a chemical herbicide, being manufactured by the same people

The Nigerian National Variety Release Committee (NVRC) has released the first generation of maize hybrids, resistant to metsulfuron methyl herbicide, that are also endowed with resistance to the noxious parasitic weed Striga hermonthica.
The hybrids were developed by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) in partnership with DuPont Pioneer Seeds using conventional breeding with funding from IITA and the Integrated Striga Management in Africa (ISMA) project as part of strategies to control S. hermonthica in maize.
The hybrids were released as P48W01 and P48W02 and are recognized as IITA IR-Maize Hybrid 2 and IR-Maize Hybrid 4. The hybrids have a yield potential of up to 5 t/ha under Striga infestation in comparison with local varieties that produce less than 1 t/ha in such conditions.


This is not a f***g hybrid, it is a GMo, have you heard of a natural plant that already has immunity to a man made herbicide and chemical

OPEN YOUR MINDS PEOPLE ,FOR GOODNESS SAKE

all4naija:
Stop being petulant. You refuse to accept the fact that it is not about huge part of the food grown going to waste but about sustainability. With the level at which humans are depleting the resources with earth teeming population in few hundred years wel might run out of the most important ones. It is clear you are looking for an avenue to make population growth as not a great problem. You aren't seeing the picture here.

There are numerous natural agricultural practices that we learnt even in school.. they are sustainable.. think outside the box ...

there is a hidden agenda .

they are deceiving you ....
... Monsanto is a leader in both conventional hybrid maize as well as hybrid genetically-modified maize.

what do you get.. when you cross breed gmo maize with local natural maize, you get a hybrid...

This is a PR stunt to make people who aspire to be like Dangote to embrace the farming of GMOS, which is detrimental to the health of Nigerians/

I REPEAT GMOS ARE NOT SAFE

65 Health Risks of GM Foods

Section 1: Evidence of reactions in animals and humans

1.1 GM potatoes damaged rats
1. Rats were fed potatoes engineered to produce their own insecticide.
2. They developed potentially precancerous cell growth in the digestive tract, inhibited development of their brains, livers and testicles, partial atrophy of the liver, enlarged pancreases and intestines and immune system damage.
3. The cause was not the insecticide, but in all likelihood was the process of genetic engineering.
4. GM foods on the market—which were created with the same process—have not been subject to such an extensive testing protocol.

1.2 Rats fed GM tomatoes got bleeding stomachs, several died
1. Rats were fed the GM FlavrSavr tomato for 28 days.
2. Seven of 20 rats developed stomach lesions (bleeding stomachs); another 7 of 40 died within two weeks and were replaced in the study.
3. The tomato was approved despite unresolved safety questions by FDA scientists.

1.3 Rats fed Bt corn had multiple health problems
1. Rats were fed Monsanto's Mon 863 Bt corn for 90 days.
2. They showed significant changes in their blood cells, livers and kidneys, which might indicate disease.
3. Although experts demanded follow-up, Monsanto used unscientific, contradictory arguments to dismiss concerns.

1.4 Mice fed GM Bt potatoes had intestinal damage
1. Mice were fed either GM potatoes engineered to produce the Bt-toxin or natural potatoes spiked with Bt-toxin.
2. Both diets created abnormal and excessive cell growth in the lower part of their small intestine (ileum).
3. Similar damage to the human small intestine might result in incontinence or flu-like symptoms, and may be precancerous.
4. This study overturns the assumptions that Bt-toxin is destroyed during digestion and is not biologically active in mammals.

1.5 Workers exposed to Bt cotton developed allergies
1. Agricultural laborers in six villages who picked or loaded Bt cotton reported reactions of the skin, eyes and upper respiratory tract.
2. Some laborers required hospitalization.
3. Employees at a cotton gin factory take antihistamines everyday.
4. One doctor treated about 250 cotton laborers

1.6 Sheep died after grazing in Bt cotton fields
1. After the cotton harvest in parts of India, sheep herds grazed continuously on Bt cotton plants.
2. Reports from four villages revealed that about 25% of the sheep died within a week.
3. Post mortem studies suggest a toxic reaction.

1.7 Inhaled Bt corn pollen may have triggered disease in humans
1. In 2003, approximately 100 people living next to a Bt cornfield in the Philippines developed skin, respiratory, intestinal reactions and other symptoms while the corn was shedding pollen.
2. Blood tests of 39 people showed an antibody response to Bt-toxin, which supports—but does not prove—a link.
3. The symptoms reappeared in 2004 in at least four other villages that planted the same corn variety.
4. Villagers also attribute several animal deaths to the corn.

1.8 Farmers report pigs and cows became sterile from GM corn
1. More than 20 farmers in North America report that pigs fed GM corn varieties had low conception rates, false pregnancies or gave birth to bags of water.
2. Both male and female pigs became sterile.
3. Some farmers also report sterility among cows.

1.9 Twelve cows in Germany died mysteriously when fed Bt corn
1. Twelve dairy cows died on a farm in Hesse Germany, after being fed a diet with significant amounts of a single GM corn variety, Bt 176.
2. Other cows in the herd had to be killed due to some mysterious illness.
3. Syngenta, the producers of Bt 176, compensated the farmer for part of his losses, but did not admit responsibility for the cow deaths.
4. In spite of demands by the farmer and even public protests, no detailed autopsy reports were made available.

1.10 Mice fed Roundup Ready soy had liver cell problems
1. The liver cells of mice fed Roundup Ready soybeans showed significant changes.
2. Irregularly shaped nuclei and nucleoli, an increased number of nuclear pores and other changes, all suggest higher metabolism and altered patterns of gene expression.
3. The changes may be in response to a toxin.
4. Most of the effects disappeared when GM soy was removed from the diet.

1.11 Mice fed Roundup Ready soy had problems with the pancreas
1. Mice fed GM soy showed changes in the synthesis and processing of digestive enzymes.
2. The production of alpha-amylase, a major digestive enzyme, dropped by as much as 77%.
3. This, combined with other pancreatic changes, suggests that GM soy may interfere with digestion and assimilation, as well as alter gene expression.

1.12 Mice fed Roundup Ready soy had unexplained changes in testicular cells
1. The structure and gene expression pattern of testicle cells of mice fed Roundup Ready soybeans changed significantly.
2. The cause for the changes is unknown, but the testicles are sensitive indicators of toxins.
3. Some of the changes might possibly influence adult fertility as well as the health of the offspring.
4. Mouse embryos from GM-fed mothers did show a temporary decrease in gene expression.

1.13 Roundup Ready Soy Changed Cell Metabolism in Rabbit Organs
1. Rabbits fed GM soy for about 40 days showed significant differences in the amounts of certain enzymes in their kidneys, hearts and livers.
2. A rise in LDH1 levels in all three organs suggests an increase in cellular metabolism.
3. Changes in other enzymes point to other alterations in the organs.

1.14 Most offspring of rats fed Roundup Ready soy died within three weeks
1. Female rats were fed Roundup Ready soy starting before conception and continuing through pregnancy and weaning.
2. Of the offspring, 55.6% died within three weeks compared to 9% from non-GM soy controls.
3. Some pups from GM-fed mothers were significantly smaller and both mothers and pups were more aggressive.
4. In a separate study, after a lab began feeding rats a commercial diet containing GM soy, offspring mortality reached 55.3%.
5. When offspring from GM-fed rats were mated together, they were unable to conceive.

1.15 Soy allergies skyrocketed in the UK, soon after GM soy was introduced
1. In a single year, 1999, soy allergies in the UK jumped from 10% to 15% of the sampled population.
2. GM soy was imported into the country shortly before 1999.
3. Antibody tests verify that some individuals react differently to GM and non-GM soy varieties.
4. GM soy also has an increased concentration of a known allergen

1.16 Rats fed Roundup Ready canola had heavier livers
1. The livers of rats fed GM canola were 12-16% heavier than those fed non-GM varieties.
2. The liver is a chemical factory and primary detoxifier for the body.
3. Heavier livers may indicate liver disease or inflammation.
4. If this were caused by oil-soluble toxins, they may be present in canola oil.

1.17 Twice the number of chickens died when fed Liberty Link corn
1. The death rate for chickens fed Chardon LL GM corn for 42 days was 7%, compared to 3.5% for controls.
2. GM-fed chickens also had more erratic body weight and food intake, and less weight gain overall.
3. The study was designed so that only huge differences would be statistically significant.
4. The results were therefore dismissed without follow-up.

1.18 GM peas generated an allergic-type inflammatory response in mice
1. In advanced tests not normally part of GM crop evaluations, protein produced by GM peas generated a dangerous immune response in mice.
2. That "same" protein, when produced naturally in beans, had no effect.
3. The GM peas produced a subtle, hard-to-detect difference in the way sugar molecules attached to the protein, which likely caused the problem.
4. The response in mice suggested that the GM peas could provoke inflammatory or allergic reactions in humans; commercialization of the peas was therefore cancelled.
5. This type of subtle but dangerous change in the GM protein would rarely, if ever, be detected in the safety assessments typically used to approve GM crops.

1.19 Eyewitness reports: Animals avoid GMOs
1. When given a choice, several animals avoided eating GM food.
2. In farmer-run tests, cows and pigs repeatedly passed up GM corn.
3. Animals that avoided GM food include cows, pigs, geese, squirrels, elk, deer, raccoons, mice and rats.

1.20 A GM food supplement killed about 100 people and caused 5,000-10,000 to fall sick
1. One brand of the supplement L-tryptophan created a deadly US epidemic in the 1980s
2. The company genetically engineered bacteria to produce the supplement more economically.
3. Their product contained many contaminants, five or six of which were suspected as the cause of the disease.
4. Discovering the epidemic required multiple coincidences, suggesting that adverse reactions to GM foods may be hard to identify.

gmo seeds and foods are not safe .. this is one of the greatest scams .. that would reduce the natural potency of food and also make us subservent to the gmo companirs forever . Forget that crap of it being locally produced .. there is a patent for transfer of gmo technology and also royalties would be paid.

I would give kudos to the minister of Agriculture , he is serving his paymasters well ... western imperialism at its highest ... while european countries are rejecting gmos .. we are embracing it whole heartedly .. Nigerians should wakeup and smell the coffee

We all know the rockafella trained economist is pursuing the agenda of the white elite to wipe out natural occuring food in nigeria . increase diseases .. and make nigerian farmers solely dependent on the elite

This guy must be the best minister Nigeria has seen in a very long time. Well done Mr.

Best Minister my FOOT
show me an agriculture minister who is not an imperialist and who is not promoting the agendas of the global elite , i will doff my hat for him/her

Truth is He is spearheading Mosanto fertilisers, Mosanto Seeds, Mosanto everything
He is pushing terminator seeds that hold farmers hostage to the seed patent rights of corporations. He is pushing fertilisers that would destroy our soils for good.

Anyone who puts Monsanto in Charge of Ending Hunger in Nigeria is a DEVIL

Adeshina is going to be guilty for the murder of millions of Nigerians by the time he has finished his eugenics agenda in Nigeria
He is going to write his name in the history books of Lenin,Hitler who were all backed by illuminati,jewish corporations

nuclearboy:
I too have been pondering this issue - how does Tambuwal's defection seem more important to the president than the loss of Mubi?

Not a single statement or attempt to re-assure the people of Nigeria..... ... Nothing! Just schemes to reconvene the Lower House, NOT TO FIND A SOLUTION TO BOKO HARAM, BUT to kick out the Speaker who has "insulted" him and feels he can get away with such

The BH animals who are giving him (and the CDS) the middle finger and the loss of thousands of lives and Nigerian territory, mean nothing??

I am now in the ranks of those who see this president as "a mistake". We missed our way in 2011.

bros d thing tire me

millhouse:
nice

thanks

what we should be discussing is how we can defend our body against unsuspected consumption and encourage organic farming and call on the minister to come clean on this issue ...

It is estimated that over 80% of
processed foods now contain
genetically modified organisms, also
called GMOs (source) . The rapidity
with which these frankenfoods have
invaded and continue to expand within
our food supply is nothing short of
terrifying. For example, Monsanto’s
Roundup Ready GMO sugar beets were
first introduced to the market in 2008.
Now, a few short years later, at least
95% of the sugar beets grown in the
United States are GMO with over 50%
of the white sugar coming from GMO
beets – NOT sugar cane which is
what the majority of consumers
assume!
While most world countries opt for full
disclosure on product labels, the US
still does not require any information
to warn consumers of lurking GMOs.
For parents, it is imperative to source
and buy foods free of GMOs as much
as possible as the long term effects on
humans, especially growing children, is
completely unknown.
Buying from trusted local producers
and seeking products that are organic
or have the Non-GMO Project Verified
label is the best way to achieve this
goal until manufacturers are finally
required to disclose the truth on
ingredient labels.
If you are still unconvinced that the
effort and expense required to avoid
GMOs for your family is worth it,
below is a list of 11 scientific reasons
why you should reconsider.
Processed food containing GMOs is
not really food – it is a chemistry
experiment. Be sure your family opts
out. Your children deserve better than
to be hapless guinea pigs for the
industrial food system.
Scientific Reasons to
Avoid GMOs
1) A study of GMOs reported in the
June 2013 issue of the peer-
reviewed Journal of Organic
Systems involved research conducted
over 22.7 weeks using 168 newly
weaned pigs in a commercial U.S.
piggery. One group of 84 pigs ate a
diet that incorporated genetically
modified (GM) soy and corn, and the
other group of 84 pigs ate an
equivalent non-GM diet. The pigs that
ate the GM diet had a higher rate of
severe stomach inflammation – 32
percent of GM-fed pigs compared to
12 percent of non-GM-fed pigs (see
photo above). The inflammation was
worse in GM-fed males compared to
non-GM fed males by a factor of 4.0,
and GM-fed females compared to non-
GM-fed females by a factor of 2.2.
(Source)
2) In 2012, researchers found that
female rats fed GMOs in the form of
Roundup Ready-tolerant corn
developed large tumors and
dysfunction of the pituitary gland;
males also developed tumors and
exhibited pathologies of the liver and
kidney (Food and Chemical Toxicology
2012).
3) Scientists at the Russian Academy
of Sciences reported between 2005
and 2006 that female rats fed
Roundup Ready-tolerant GM soy
produced excessive numbers of
severely stunted pups with more than
half of the litter dying within three
weeks, and the surviving pups
completely sterile. (Source)
4) In 2005, scientists studying GMOs
at the Commonwealth Scientific and
Industrial Research Organization in
Canberra, Australia reported that a
harmless protein in beans (alpha-
amylase inhibitor 1) transferred to
peas via genetic engineering caused
inflammation in the lungs of mice and
provoked sensitivities to other proteins
in the diet (Ho MW. Transgenic pea
that made mice ill. Science in Society
29, 28-29, 2006).
5) From 2002 to 2005, scientists at
the Universities of Urbino, Perugia
and Pavia in Italy published reports
indicating that GM soy affected cells
in the pancreas, liver and testes of
young mice (Science in Society 29,
26-27, 2006).
6) In 2004, Monsanto’s secret
research dossier on GMOs showed
that rats fed MON863 GM corn
developed serious kidney and blood
abnormalities ( GMWatch, 23 April
2004.)
7) In 1998, Dr. Arpad Pusztai and
colleagues formerly of the Rowett
Institute in Scotland reported damage
in every organ system of young rats
fed GM potatoes containing snowdrop
lectin, including a stomach lining twice
as thick as controls (Contaminants
and Toxins, (J P F D’Mello ed.),
Scottish Agricultural College,
Edinburgh, CAB International, 2003).
Also in 1998, scientists in Egypt
found similar effects in the guts
of mice fed Bt potato (Fares NH and
El-Sayed AK. Fine structural changes
in the ileum of mice fed on
dendotoxin-treated potatotes and
transgenic potatoes. Natural Toxins,
1998, 6, 219-33; also “Bt is toxic” by
Joe Cummins and Mae-Wan Ho, ISIS
News 7/8, February 2001, ISSN:
1474-1547 (print), ISSN: 1474-1814
(online) http://www.i-sis.org.uk/
isisnews.php Agricultural
Biotechnology 2006, www.ISAAA.org ).
9) The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration had data on the
adverse effects of GMOs dating back
to early 1990s showing that rats fed
GM tomatoes with antisense gene to
delay ripening had developed small
holes in their stomachs (Pusztai A,
Bardocz S and Ewen SWB. Genetically
modified foods: Potential human
health effects. In Food Safety:
Contaminants and Toxins, (J P F
D’Mello ed.), Scottish Agricultural
College, Edinburgh, CAB International,
2003).
10) In 2002, Aventis company (later
Bayer Cropscience) submitted data to
UK regulators showing that chickens
fed glufosinate-tolerant GM corn
Chardon LL were twice as likely to die
compared with controls ( Food Safety:
Contaminants and Toxins (CABI
Publishing 2003 also Novotny E.
Animals avoid GM food, for good
reasons. Science in Society 21, 9-11,
2004).
11) Testing by Monsanto itself has
found that rats eating GM maize
(MON863) develop smaller kidneys
and show startling changes in blood
chemistry. One blood change included
an increase in white blood cell count
which demonstrates that the GM food
elicited an immune reaction by the
body.

These are the ember months and everyone is so desperate to sell of their goods and also raise enough money for the Christmas and new year holidays. Check out some strategies you can try out.


1. Whether you’re selling products in stores or online, one potential way you can influence customers to buy your goods is by referrals. The power for more sales lies in your existing and past customers.Offer your past customers incentives for referring your products and services to their own friends.People are 71% More Likely to Purchase Based on Referrals ,people buy drugs because their friends recommended it to them, people are more likely to try out a new business opportunity because their friends referred it to them.
Get some of your loyal customers together and beg,coerce or even offer them incentives for referring your products to their own friends, it makes it easier when you have a business presence on facebook,twitter and instagram, which makes it more easier for them to share it to their own friends.



2. Increase your personal friend network
The more friends you have, the more potential customers you have.It is so difficult trying to sell to people who you are not socially or personally connected to, Try and be more social, make more friends in church and also at the office place.Join social clubs and be nice to people,people love interesting and lively people, so your best bet is to be one.As your personal friend network increases, you have more people who would patronise you and also help you refer your products and services to more people. Being more social also applies on social networks,You can simply increase sales by making more friends on facebook, being more social by commenting and liking other people's status updates and also be interesting by posting fun and great content.




3.Lastly you should try advertising your business on Facebook.
Today, hundreds and thousands of leading brands, restaurants, hotels, writers, filmmakers, bands, and retailers are leveraging on Facebook ads to reach consumers. The Facebook advertising model enables you to reach out to millions of people on facebook, there are over a million Nigerians on facebook officially and this is a rich target market to reach. Facebook Ads allow you to reach exactly the audience you want and bring them to your Page. You can choose your audience based on age, gender, geography, educational status, relationship status, and precise interests or keywords.
Facebook advertising is cheaper when compared to traditional forms of advertising mediums such as newspaper adverts and tv adverts, and it reaches a sophisticated and enlightened economic group effectively. It also has the advantage of not just physically creating an advert impression which might just last for a few seconds in the mind of the customer but also allows the customer to get information by clicking on the advert and going to your website or facebook business page: where the customer can get more information about your products and services.

Facebook Ads have Great Targeting Options
First things first, if you’re not talking to your customers no online advertising will work for you. Facebook offer a great number of targeting options to help you maximise the amount of spend you place on your Facebook ads ranging from age range of people who will see them to the ad placement on their Facebook pages.You can specifically target people who would likely buy your product and reduce your costs of advertising by not showing your advert to people who don't need your product and services.You can target facebook users based on parameters such as age, gender and location as well as their interests or things they ‘Like’.
