ok thanks for ur guide

ZAWs:
The camera should be very normal during the day.(You shouldn't be using a flash during the day I supposed)
For the price, no idea at the moment.

between M7 and E8 which one is better to use?

What about @ day time. The Camera! And what's the price range for a fairly used

How much does it go for? And what's the experience like to those Using it?

Why are things turning around while PMB is away and under Osibanjo's watch?

Without any doubt, the pledge by the Ghanaian government to employ youths from public universities who read agriculture, towards enhancing agricultural production in the country is worthy of commendation.

Senior Minister, Osafo Marfo, at a breakfast meeting themed: “A public – private dialogue on stability, growth and jobs”, disclosed that the government in league with the universities would recruit unemployed agricultural graduates as extension service providers across the country.

“As part of enhancing agriculture production in the country, we have decided in consultation with the universities, all those who have done degrees in Agriculture and are unemployed. We will be calling all of them for short term training in extension services so that with their degree background, they will be in a position to give extension services across the country”, he said.

Though the efforts of the Nigerian government to reduce unemployment by promoting youth participation in agriculture have somewhat increased, stakeholders still believe a lot more can be done to birth the desired results.

A case in point is the N-Power programme designed to target critical needs in education, agriculture, technology, creative construction and artisanal industries which has been on a low key since its inception last year.

In a recent chat with AgroNigeria, the Agric Minister’s Technical Adviser for Youth and Gender, Mosunmola Umoru, informed that the federal government will recruit and train extension service providers in the agric sector.

“There is the Npower project currently running from the office of the Vice President that will recruit and train, about 30, 000 extension service providers in the first phase. Moreover, the phase has been approved to scale up to a 100,000 hopefully in the next 3 to 5 years” she said.

Lauding these efforts, Agricultural Consultant, Tony Egba urged the federal government to adopt this model, adding that the Npower program of the federal government is key in achieving this strategy.

“For agricultural productivity to increase, active extension services are essential, and the Npower program which has agriculture in its development plan can achieve this”, he said.

Egba however noted that for the model to be effective, training and supervision is important.

“Extension services that will lead to productivity must employ specially trained personnel. You can’t send someone who doesn’t know the difference between maize and yam to go and be an extension officer. Green university graduates should be attached to senior extension officers in active practice for minimum of two planting circle in a technology based farm before you can send them out”, he explained.

In the coming weeks, it will interesting to see which direction the Npower project leads, and with Nigeria’s next door neighbor, Ghana making headway in incorporating youths in agriculture, the plan by the Nigerian government to revamp the sector through youth participation is already playing catch up.

As part of efforts geared towards reducing food prices in the country, the Federal Government has revealed plans to open the nation’s food reserve .

The Minister of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Audu Ogbeh, stated this while addressing journalists at the end of a meeting of the Federal Executive Council this week.

Ogbeh informed that the council had received the interim report of the task force committee set up last week to look at the issue of hike in food prices.

“One of the things we found out is that the cost of transportation is becoming extremely high especially because most of our transportation is by road and diesel prices have gone up while trucks are finding it difficult to move from place to place at the old prices” he said.

To tackle the challenges, Ogbeh explained that while the federal government has considered the railway wagons as a viable alternative for transportation.

“So, we considered the following alternatives: using railway wagons along the current railway network. As we did before when we moved cattle from the North-West to Lagos, we brought down the cost and avoided the multiple taxation on transporters by local governments which delayed movement.” he added.

Speaking further on measures to address challenges of transportation, Ogbeh said the federal government would also ensure that trucks carrying food items would be labeled to enable them move smoothly on the highways without delays by the security agents.

“We are going to adopt what they have in Cote d’Ivoire. Trucks carrying foods are given labels. In fact, in Cote d’Ivoire, they cannot be stopped for more than 10 minutes anywhere. Even if something serious happens, the security agencies will follow them to their destinations and come back to investigate whatever has happened”, he assured.

The minister however expressed that the federal government will be looking into the food reserves if the current high food prices continues.

“Finally, we shall be looking into our reserves if in the next few days the situation persists, to see what we can bring out to lower the prices because another bumper harvest will be coming up again at the end of March” he noted.

Scientists have wondered for years how legumes such as soybeans, whose roots host nitrogen-fixing bacteria that produce essential plant nutrients out of thin air, are able to recognize these bacteria as both friendly and distinct from their own cells, and how the host plant’s specialized proteins find the bacteria and use the nutritional windfall.

Now a team of molecular biologists led by Dong Wang at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, working with the alfalfa-clover Medicago truncatula, has found how a gene in the host plant encodes a protein that recognizes the cell membrane surrounding the symbiotic bacteria, then directs other proteins to harvest the nutrients. Details appear online in the January edition of Nature Plants.

As Wang explains, plants often recruit microbes to help them satisfy their nutritional needs, offering the products of photosynthesis as a reward. A process used by most land plants depends on a symbiotic relationship with mycorrhizal fungi. These form structures known as arbuscules that help plants capture phosphorus, sulfur, nitrogen and other micronutrients from the soil. This method is akin to scavenging, Wang says, because the amount of nitrogen available in soil is quite limited.

By contrast, the less common process, found mostly in legumes, goes one giant step further: it uses bacteria called rhizobia, which live in root nodules and fix nitrogen from the air and make it into ammonia, a plant fertilizer. Symbiosis with rhizobia means legumes can make ammonia by fixing nitrogen in the air, which at 78 percent of the atmosphere, is “essentially limitless,” the biochemist adds.

Thanks to this feat, legume plants can get as much nitrogen fertilizer as they need, rather than relying on often scarce nitrogen in the soil. This is why beans are so nutritious, Wang notes. “The next time you eat your tasty tofu or edamame, you have those little bacteria, and their ‘marriage’ with legumes to thank.”

“Talk to anyone in our field, and the dream is to make it possible for our crops that can’t fix nitrogen to get that ability,” Wang suggests. “This discovery moves us one step closer. Beans are special, but what our result says is they are not that special because some of the basic infrastructure is already there in plants that use arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi instead of nitrogen-fixing bacteria, which no one understood before.”

As part of efforts to prevent the invasion of farmlands, Bayelsa state Government has donated 1,200 hectares of land to cattle herdsmen.

State Chairman, Cattle Ranches Management and Control Committee, Shitu Mohammed, who disclosed this during an interactive session with herdsmen, butchers, farmers and security agencies informed that the 1,200 hectares of land was for ranch development, grazing and slaughtering of cattle.

Mohammed said the committee was set up by the state government to foster cordial relationship between the cattle rearers, farmers and the people.

Mohammed said that more ranches would be donated to the cattle rearers to maintain peace and order in the state.

Lauding the efforts of the state government, the chairman expressed confidence that the gesture would help to sustain the lasting peace that had existed between herdsmen and farmers in the state.

He however called the citizens to appreciate the provision of the ranch as it will create job opportunities and boost tourism in the state.

FAO calls for urgent response to avoid massive casualties
 United Nations Food and Agricultural organization (FAO) has said that about 12 million people in Africa are in need of food assistance, as families face limited access to food and income, together with rising debt, low cereal and seed stocks, and low milk and meat production.

Report indicate that areas of greatest concern cover much of Somalia, north-east and coastal Kenya, south-east of Ethiopia including the Afar regions yet to recover from El Nino induced drought of 2015/16; as well as  South Sudan which faces a serious food crisis due to protracted insecurity.

Acute food shortages and malnutrition also remain a major concern in parts of Uganda’s Karamoja region.

While reacting to this, FAO Deputy Director-General, Climate and Natural Resources, Maria Semedo described the situation as worrisome, expressing concerns on the effect this would have on food security.

“The drought situation in the Region is extremely worrying, primarily in almost all of Somalia but also across Southern and South-eastern Ethiopia, and northern Kenya. As a consequence, with the next rains at least eight weeks away and the next main harvest not until July, millions are at risk of food insecurity across the region” she said

Semedo therefore called for urgent humanitarian interventions to avoid a repeat of the famine in the region in 2011.

“The magnitude of the situation calls for scaled up action and coordination at national and regional levels. This is, above all, a livelihoods and humanitarian emergency – and the time to act is now. We cannot wait for a disaster like the famine in 2011” Semedo pleaded.

AgroNigeria recall that on the July 20 2011, the UN declared famine in two regions of South Central Somalia. The famine was said to have cost the lives of over 258,000 people, while hundreds of thousands more fled across the border into Kenya and Ethiopia

The people of Agabi Kingdom, Ihuokpara, in Nkanu East Local Government Area of Enugu State, have appealed to the state government to repair the bad roads which continues to impede agricultural development in the community.

Addressing the crowd at the Enugu yam festival recently held in Ihuokpara, the traditional ruler, Igwe Fidelis Ogbu Nwatu, Eze Agabi II of Agabi Kingdom lamented that the deplorable state of the roads in the community.

“Our community is a big farming agent in the state. We farm rice, Fadama III participants are in this community, yam, cassava and other vegetables. Our market attracts people from Enugu, Akpugo, Agbani, Nara, Ugbawka and other neighbouring communities, all of who need good road to enter Ihuokpara”, he said.

He called on the governor to provide good roads that will enable the people contribute to feeding the world.

Also speaking at the event, the President General of Umuokpara, Alexander Nnamani, informed that the people of the community had been marginalized because of the bad roads.

“We have been marginalized badly in terms of roads, people cannot access our community easily and our people are predominately famers. During the rainy season, nobody comes home and our parents are in pains. When they produce things in their farms, no road to take them out to sell and make money.” he said.

In line with efforts to ensure food security in Nigeria, the Lagos State Agricultural Empowerment Training Scheme has revealed that over two million people would be trained in the South West geo-political zone of the country.

This revelation was made by the Project Director of the scheme Oluwaseyi Bamigbade during an interaction with journalists in Lagos.

Bamigbade informed that the training enable the participants to deepen their knowledge in agriculture in areas such as soilless vegetable production, cassava, wheat and rice processing, including marketing techniques both locally and internationally.

He added that would enable the participants to requisite knowledge needed in rearing domestic animals and catfish production.

While presenting certificates to 225 residents beneficiaries from the training, the director stressed that there was no way people can practice productive agriculture without cognate experience on modern farming and training.

Bamigbade noted that the training currently held in Lagos would be replicated in all the South West states.
