2021
Pius Kipchumba Cheboi | Clement Kiprotich Kiptum | Japheth O. Onyando
This study was conducted with the aim of determining the influence of tillage techniques on depth, furrow slice and water retention in Maugo Smallholder Rice Scheme in Kenya. Treatments were arranged in randomized complete block design with four replicates. Four tillage treatments were used. The first one was conventional ox plough practiced by farmers where they first flood the field with water before ploughing. The other three treatments were ox plough, hand hoe and tractor ploughing all with no flooding before ploughing. Data collected included depth of ploughing and harrowing during land preparation. Furrow slices during ploughing and harrowing as well as water retention were recorded. Tractor ploughing had the highest mean depth of ploughing of 42.00 ± 0.81 cm followed by conventional ox ploughing with 17.75 ± 0.75 cm, ox ploughing15.75 ± 0.62 cm and hand hoe ploughing had the lowest mean depth 15.50 ± 0.28 cm. Tractor ploughing had the largest mean furrow size of 62.00 ± 0.91cm followed by conventional ox ploughing 32.25 ± 0.85 cm, ox ploughing 30.25 ± 0.85 cm while hand hoe ploughing had the smallest mean furrow slice of 16.5 ± 0.50 cm. Highest mean of retained water was recorded in week 4 in paddy rice fields prepared using conventional ox ploughing (10.5 cm), ox ploughing (10 cm), hand hoe ploughing (11.5 cm) and tractor ploughing (11.5 cm) while the lowest was recorded in week 15 for conventional plots. There were significant differences in mean depths during both ploughing and harrowing. Tractor ploughing mean depths were significantly different from the other treatments. The weekly mean water depths retained in the plots were more than 6 cm for the entire growing period of rice.

Monika Szafrańska
Celem pracy jest ocena poziomu świadomości rolniczej młodzieży akademickiej z woj. małopolskiego oraz określenie wybranych czynników determinujących ten poziom. Ich znajomość może stanowić podstawę działań różnych podmiotów, które przyczynią się do wzrostu świadomości rolniczej młodego pokolenia. Zasadniczym źródłem danych wykorzystanych do analizy i wnioskowania były informacje pierwotne uzyskane z badań własnych, przeprowadzonych metodą PAPI na grupie 436 studentów. Do pomiaru i oceny świadomości młodzieży na temat rolnictwa wykorzystano indeks świadomości rolniczej. Jak wynika z przeprowadzonych badań, większość respondentów nie rozumie roli rolnictwa, którą odgrywa ono w gospodarce, społeczeństwie i środowisku. Determinantami poziomu świadomości rolniczej w grupie studentów były płeć oraz miejsce zamieszkania. | The aim of the work is to assess the level of agricultural awareness of academic youth and to pinpoint selected factors determining this the level. Being familiar with these determinants might serve as the basis for taking some actions by various entities which contribute to the increase in the agricultural awareness of the young generation. The main source of the data used for the analyses and applications was the primary information obtained from personal research. The research was done by using PAPI method on the group of 436 students. In order to measure and evaluate the youth awareness on agriculture the index of agricultural awareness was used. The findings of the studies indicate that the level of agricultural awareness of academic youth on the role in economy, society and environment is low.

Field experiment was conducted in three factorial strip split plot design to evaluate the effect of two establishment methods (EM) i.e. transplanted in puddled soil (Pu-TPR) and direct seeded in zero tillage (ZT-DSR), two residue levels i.e. residue kept at 3 t ha -1 (RK) and no residue (RR) with two nitrogen doses i.e. recommended dose (100 kg N ha -1) (RD) and farmers' dose (50 kg N ha-1) (FD) with six replications with individual plot size of 5.4 m × 6.3 m on rice variety Ram-Dhan during the year 2016. Nitrogen uptake, nitrogen use efficiencies and yield of rice were recorded. Straw nitrogen uptake was significantly higher in ZT-DSR than Pu-TPR. Similarly, grain straw and total nitrogen uptake were significantly higher in residue applied and recommended dose of nitrogen than no-residue applied and farmers-nitrogen dose treatments respectively. Nitrogen efficiency ratio and physiological efficiency index were significantly higher in Pu-TPR and no-residue applied treatments while partial factor productivity was higher in residue applied treatment. All nitrogen use efficiencies like partial factor productivity, nitrogen efficiency ratio and physiological efficiency index were significantly influenced by nitrogen dose and seen higher in recommended dose of nitrogen. Establishment methods had no significant effect on grain yield but straw yield was significantly higher in ZT-DSR but harvest index was seen higher in Pu-TPR. Grain yield and straw yield were significantly higher in residue applied treatment and recommended nitrogen but harvest index was higher in farmers-nitrogen dose.
