Encroachment dynamics of Acacia drepanolobium in Maswa game reserve
Authors:   , Kimaro Houssein Samwel
Published: July 2023

Habitat degradation, caused in particular by woody plant encroachment, has been a common phenomenon in savanna ecosystems. With increasing woody plant cover in open savanna grassland, structural changes and their associated impact need to be assessed and quantified. We analyzed the extent of woody plant encroachment via remote sensing and assessed encroached sites and open grassland of Maswa Game Reserve on the ground to identify and examine encroaching woody plant species and their associated impacts on herbaceous plant and herbivore species. We found that woody plant cover increased by 0.5% to 2.6% per annum. Acacia drepanolobium dominated the woody encroaching species, and the number of stems in heavily encroached sites was seven times and three times higher than in open grassland and at medium encroached sites, respectively. Our results show that woody plant encroachment reduces grazers and mixed feeder species occurrence. Furthermore, the number of herbaceous species slightly increased with increase of woody plant encroachment, while herbaceous cover was negatively correlated with increase of woody plant cover. Fire significantly reduced germination success of A. drepanolobium. Intermediate simulated rainfall was more beneficial to seedling emergence success than infrequent simulated rainfall, while seedling shoots growth was significantly higher in frequent and intermediate simulated rainfall treatments than under infrequent simulated rainfall. Hence, our study suggests that the recent bush encroachment phenomena might have been stipulated by suppression of bush fires and frequent low rainfall. This understanding will contribute in management of vegetation specifically woody plants in savanna ecosystems that are important wildlife habitats.
Effect of blanching and drying on micronutrients and anti-nutritional factors in false sesame and common bean leaves
Authors:   , Kandonga Agness
Published: July 2023

The effects of blanching and drying on micro-nutrients: β-Carotene, Vitamin C, Folic acid, Iron (Fe), Zinc (Zn), Phosphorus (P) and anti-nutrients: Tannins and Oxalates composition of False Sesame Leaves (FSL) and Common Bean Leaves (CBL) were investigated. Vegetables consumption and preservation technologies used were assessed using questionnaire. Micronutrients content: β-Carotene, Vitamin C, and folic acid were analyzed using HPLC method while Fe, Zn were determined using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) and Phosphorus was determined using UV-VIS Spectrophotometer. The oxalate and tannin were determined by titration and Folin Ciocalteu method. Several vegetables consumed were identified, FSL (16.9%) (Bahi) and CBL (21%) (Mbeya rural) were one of those. In vegetable processing, boiling (76.9%) and sun drying (15%) were reported in Bahi and Mbeya Rural Districts, respectively. Sun drying was the commonly used method in both Districts. Folic acid and β- Carotene were below detection limits in both vegetables. The vitamin C content in fresh FSL and CBL was 16.28 and 5.48 mg/ 100g, respectively, yet the content was significantly reduced (p<0.05) by blanching and sun drying. False sesame leaves contained P (700 mg/kg), Fe (115.75 ± 2.23 mg/kg) and Zn (14.13 mg/kg) whereas in CBL P was 600 mg/kg Fe (652.76 mg/kg) and Zn (41.04 ± 0.28 mg/kg). Levels of P, Fe and Zn were significantly (p<0.05) increased by sun drying. Tannin and oxalate content in blanched and sun dried leaves were lower than in fresh leaves. Sun drying of FSL and CBL while covering after blanching further reduced tannins and oxalates, thus it is recommended as an effective method in anti-nutrients elimination.
Detection and characterization of cashew leaf and nut blight-causing fungi in Southern and Eastern Tanzania
Authors:   , Majune Dadili Japhet
Published: July 2023

Cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) is an important crop for export, income and nutrition in Tanzania. However, its productivity is not optimal due to a number of factors including, growing un-improved cashew genotypes, poor soil fertility, insect pests and diseases. Of these factors, Cashew Leaf and Nut Blight Disease (CLNBD) has been cited as among devastating factors for lower nut yields and quality. The present study investigated the CLNBD incidence and severity on farmers’ cashew fields in the eastern and southern zones of Tanzania and on artificially inoculated cashew elite hybrid seedlings in the screen house experiment at Tanzania Agricultural Research Institute (TARI)-Naliendele. Samples with disease symptoms collected from surveyed areas were used for detection and characterization of CLNBD-causing pathogens at TARI-Mikocheni. Results showed that there was significant difference (P<0.001) between the CLNBD incidence and severity in the surveyed locations. The highest (71.15%) CLNBD incidence was recorded in Mtwara while the lowest (31.21%) CLNBD incidence was recorded in Bagamoyo Districts. The results for the screen house experiment showed that 38 out of 52 cashew hybrids were tolerant to CLNBD implying their potential in breeding for resistant/tolerant cashew cultivars. The results also showed that CLNBD is caused by a complex of fungal species belonging to genera Botryosphaeria, Pestalotiopsis, Colletotrichum, Neofusicoccum and Lasiodiplodia. Further studies are recommended to study host range of the new fungal species identified in this study. The identified tolerant cashew genotypes are recommended for further screening in breeding programs for developing resistant varieties against CLNBD in Tanzania.
Phenotypic and biochemical screening of sorghum genotypes for growth and rice weevil resistance in Tanzania
Authors:   , Mwenda Emmanuel Thomas
Published: July 2023

The current study characterised sorghum genotypes based on their growth morphological variations; identified phenotypic and biochemical traits, and screened them for resistance to rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae). A total of 117 sorghum genotypes were characterised using 10 qualitative and 10 quantitative growth morphological traits using sorghum descriptors. After preliminary yield screening, only 98 sorghum genotypes were used for the study. Data were subjected to one-way analysis of variance using GenStat version 15. Multivariate analysis and Pearson correlation was done using Mintab statistical software version 14. The study revealed significant levels of variability among sorghum genotypes (p<0.001) in terms of growth morphological traits, kernel phenotypic traits, biochemical and susceptibility to rice weevil. Positive and significant correlation was observed between grain yield and yield related parameters. Days to 50% flowering showed highly positive and significant association with plant height, number of leaves, and days to maturity. Genotypes IESH23022, IESV91104DL and IESV92172 were the best candidates for source of earliness and yield traits. Nine genotypes namely PATO, IESV92041SH, ATX623 x AIGD34533, UDO, Mbangala white, IESV74 DL, IESV92172, ICSA15 x R8602, and P9504A x ICSR172 recorded lower F1 progeny emergence, susceptibility index, median development period, kernel damage, and weight loss indicating that the genotypes were resistant to rice weevil. Kernel hardness indicated strong significant correlation with susceptibility parameters (p<0.001). Therefore, lines with adequate kernel strength are recommended for breeding against devastating storage pest, the rice weevil in Tanzania.
Characterization and effectiveness of indigenous rhizobia nodulating common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) in Hai district, Northern Tanzania
Authors:   , Kilambo Grace
Published: July 2023

A study to characterise indigenous rhizobia nodulating bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) was conducted from April, 2018 to November, 2018 in Hai District. Thirty rhizobia organisms were isolated from bean root nodules and grown on Yeast Extract Mannitol Agar containing Congo Red (YEMA w/Congo Red). Morphological identification and molecular characterization based on 16srRNA and gyrase subunit B (gyrB) genes and evaluation of the rhizobia isolates for their symbiotic effectiveness on bean was conducted. The results showed that all rhizobia isolates were fast growing (2 – 5 days) on YEMA w/congo red, failed to absorb Congo Red, and displayed whitish or creamy colour on Yeast Manitol Broth (YMB) indicating that they were rhizobia. Results also showed that DNAs from 18 out of 30 rhizobia isolates were amplified by 16S rRNA primers, and only 9 out of 30 rhizobia isolates were amplified by gyrase subunit B primers. DNAs from eight of the isolates were neither amplified by 16S rRNA nor gyrB primers indicating they were different from those that the primers could amplify. Nevertheless, in testing the effectiveness, all 30 isolates were able to induce nodules on host plant and most of them had relative effectiveness index (RI) which was as high as that of the commercial CIAT 899 strain. Isolate IR1, IR3, IR10 and IR12 had RI above 100%, higher than CIAT 899. Isolate IR20 had the lowest HI (78%). Such results implied that indigenous rhizobia identified can be used for bean inoculation instead CIAT 899 in Tanzania.

Authors:   , Putaa Humphrey P.
Published: July 2023

The study examines the sustainability of the innovation platforms (IPs) and associations among smallholder dairy farmers in Lushoto and Korogwe districts in Tanzania. Specifically, the study has characterized dairy IPs and associations; identified key constraints facing IPs and assessed the sustainability of the dairy IPs. The study has used cross section design. A sample size of 210 was selected through purposive and random sampling. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected by using structured questionnaire, focus group discussions and key informants interviews. While descriptive statistical was used to analyze quantitative data using statistical package for social science version 21, content analysis was used to analyze the qualitative data. The findings revealed that most of the respondents are unaware of IPs. The findings also identified major strengths of availability and use of constitution and by-laws, defined organizational structures and access to farmers training. The major weaknesses found were missing key actors such as input suppliers and financiers, insufficient fund, poor meeting attendance and high dropout. The identified opportunities were availability of committed farmers and high milk demand in the market, availability of input suppliers, extension services, financial and micro finance institutions. However, major threats to IPs were unstable milk price, high cost of borrowing and environment degradation which leads to drought. In addition, the study characterized and grouped stakeholders into eleven group’s base of their interests, role, interaction, influence and contribution to IPs. For sustainability purposes, this study recommends the effective participation of the actors in the IP and the interest of each stakeholder should be addressed in the IP. Awareness should focus on the platform and association’s membership contributions and benefits of participation in the IP and association. Missing actors should be included in the IPs and work with other stakeholders. Platform members should also be trained in relevant skills to improve their operations. Finally, IP members should initiate business activities that will enable platform to obtain funds to implement its activities.
Molecular epidemiology of rodent-, shrew- and bat-borne hantaviruses in Mbeya region, Tanzania
Authors:   , Sudi Lwitiho
Published: July 2023

Hantaviruses, family Bunyaviridae are emerging zoonotic RNA viruses, which originates from rodents, bats and shrews. Expanded diversity of Hantaviruses with their respective reservoir host in Africa stimulates the research on Hantavirus distribution among reservoir hosts as well as the assessment of knowledge, attitude and practices on Hantavirus infections at the community level in Mbeya region. Cross section surveys conducted between July 2017 and September 2018, involved the trapping of rodents, shrews and bats on residential areas, agricultural fields and forest areas and assessing the level of knowledge, attitude and practices on Hantavirus infections at the community level in Mbeya region. Necropsies from the internal organs were collected and screened for Hantavirus using Han-L PCR. Positive samples were purified and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis was done to assess the evolutionary relationship among Hantavirus strains. Only (6/334) 1.8% of all bat species trapped were positive for Hantavirus while rodents and shrews were found to be negative. Mops condylurus was confirmed to carry Hantavirus in Mbeya region. The maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis revealed a previous unidentified bat borne Hantavirus strain named Kiwira virus. In addition, the community has a low level of knowledge and higher practices, which may favor the transmission of the Hantavirus from the reservoir host to human population and this, endanger the community health. The discovery of new Hantavirus strain on free-tailed bats (Mops condylurus) in Kyela district expands the diversity of Hantavirus reservoir host in Africa. Informing the society about Hantavirus infections is more important as far as public health is concerned.
Determining aflatoxins contamination in locally processed peanut butter using fluorometry and hplc in Arusha city, Tanzania
Authors:   , Maarufu Mariamu C.
Published: July 2023

Food poisoning with mycotoxins produced by fungi is a global food safety issue. The consumption of mycotoxin-contaminated foods is responsible for several foodborne diseases outbreak worldwide. While peanuts are an important crop with both economic and nutritional significance in tropical and subtropical regions, their vulnerability to aflatoxin contamination, for example, makes them unsuitable for human consumption. This study aimed at assessing the aflatoxin contamination of locally processed peanut butter in Arusha city. Fifty samples of peanut butter from ten different firms (5 different batches per firm) were purchased at the local markets, supermarkets, and retail shops in the city. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography and Vicam fluorometer methods were used for aflatoxin analysis in the samples. Whereas the total amount of aflatoxins detected by Vicam fluorometer ranged from 5.6 to 720 ppb (μg/kg), by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography it ranged from 1 to 1981.37 μg/kg. These results showed a moderate positive correlation or relationship between High-Performance Liquid Chromatography and Vicam Fluorometer methods with r = 0.47. This implies that Vicam fluorometer can be more effective in initial determination of aflatoxins prior to food processing. The results further suggest that unhygienic processing practices, poor quality raw materials used for food processing, and the lack of quality control in local production chains might be the source of high aflatoxins contamination in peanut butter. Accordingly, a moderate positive correlation in total aflatoxin concentration was revealed between High-Performance Liquid Chromatography and Fluorimeter methods (r = 0.47). This indicates that Fluorimeter could be a suitable and cost-effective pre-screening tool of aflatoxin levels in locally processed food products. It is recommended that farmers and food processors in local production chains can use Vicam fluorometer to determine the quality of raw materials before processing foods intended for human consumption. This could help farmers and food processors to timely identify aflatoxin contamination of their raw materials and products at pre and post-processing stages, and hence, improving the quality and safety and product market value.
Epidemiology of intestinal schistosomiasis and efficacy of single versus repeated dose praziquantel treatments among schoolchildren in Rorya district, Northwestern Tanzania
Authors:   , Munisi David Zadock
Published: July 2023

In Schistosoma mansoni endemic areas, administering repeated treatments may increase praziquantel cure rate (CR) and egg reduction rate (ERR), thereby improving morbidity reduction and hastening achievement of transmission control in these areas. This was a longitudinal study which investigated the efficacy of single versus repeated praziquantel treatments of S.mansoni infections and its impact on undernutrition and anaemia. Stool samples were collected from 513 schoolchildren and examined for S.mansoni infections using the Kato-Katz method. Questionnaires were used to collect sociodemographic data, risk factors, knowledge, attitude and practices on schistosomiasis. Nutritional status was determined by anthropometry. Blood samples were collected and examined for malaria parasites and haemoglobin levels using the Giemsa stain and HaemoCue methods, respectively. The prevalence of S.mansoni, malaria, stunting, wasting and anaemia were 84.01%, 9.16%, 38.21%, 14.42% and 29.43%, respectively. The geometric mean (GM) egg per gram of stool for S.mansoni was 167.13 (95%CI: 147.19–189.79) eggs per gram of stool. Village of residence, parent’s level of education, toilet use and treatment history were predictors of S.mansoni infection. A total of 431 S.mansoni infected schoolchildren were randomized to either receive a single or repeated 40mg/kg dose of praziquantel. At 8 weeks post baseline treatment, CR was higher among those on repeated dose (93.10%) than those on a single dose (68.68%, p<0.001). Likewise, ERR was higher among those on repeated dose (97.54%) than on a single dose (87.27%, p=0.0062). GM epg was lower among those on repeated dose (1.30 epg) than those on single dose (3.18 epg, p=0.036). At eight months post baseline treatment, the rate of re-infection was about 83% and 77% among those on repeated and single treatments, respectively. No significant difference was observed in the prevalence of stunting between the two treatment regimens (p>0.05), with significant increase in mean haemoglobin (p<0.05) but without significant difference between treatments (p>0.05). Majority (93%) of participants mentioned using lake water for domestic chores. Although toilet ownership was high (84.61%), regular toilet use was low (55.31%). To be of sustained benefit, repeated dose praziquantel treatments should be coupled with other control measures that aim at reducing the rate of re-infection and environmental contamination. URI

Entrepreneurial Opportunities for Women
Authors: Sundararajan Shanmugam
Published: July 2023

Over the past decade, there has been a boom within the business environment, with women entrepreneurs evolving in large numbers contributing to the social and economic level development of society. Economic participation and development of organizations indicate that 15% to 35% of entrepreneurs are women. The business being the fulcrum of any economy, it is the responsibility of the business proprietors, be they, men or women, to weigh the effect of their operations on society. Entrepreneurship in management is the process of organizing existing resources for marketable products and services. Women business owners who have adopted and executed entrepreneurial exercises and techniques in their firms can be called women entrepreneurs. Generally, entrepreneurship is considered a domain for men; however, women have pioneered fields like teaching, retail, and health professions for a very long period, and women are known for their problem-solving strategies to deal with problems, issues, multitasking, team building and the successful development of organizations. The story of women entrepreneurs is a societal change that has been happening since the early 21st century. Economic growth has been steady in countries where women have advanced in entrepreneurship, whereas in countries where growth in women's entrepreneurship is not so evident Economic development has been stagnant. Hence, this paper narrates the entrepreneurial opportunities for women in India.

Authors: Hassan Khan M. K. Amjad , Aswin Herbert Sathish R. , Pandey Mayank
Published: July 2023

The requirement of human beings always brings new concepts and designs to the world. A preowned market is one such important need of the present modern arena. The preowned market has grabbed customers' attention since the trend of exchanging goods without any money was introduced. If we look closely, this concept was initially implemented by the Mughal emperors, which regained attention. There are many reasons this resale market is worthy enough, the best alternative and excellent competition for the new manufacturing units. This preowned market is not only best given economic reasons but also impactful for social and ethical reasons. Among many preowned markets in India, the preowned automobile industry has gained an excellent market in a concise period. The regular transfer of individuals and continuously and drastically changing technology is the primary reason behind the increased preowned automotive market. Another essential reason is expendable income and accessible financial support from various agencies, specifically for pre-owned cars. Considering the rapid increment in the preowned car market, this company analysis article investigates one of the significant trending companies called CARS24 in the preowned car market. This study is based on various surveys and analyses from different customers and showrooms. This analysis also considers the cumulative findings and suggestions to overcome the present problems related to preowned cars.

No Mind is an Island. On ‘mental illness’ and the reciprocity of minds
Authors: Raabe Peter
Published: July 2023

This essay disputes the approach to so-called ‘mental illness’ in which the individual patient is presumed to be the locus of his or her ‘disorder,’ and should therefore be treated with mind-altering drugs. My position is predicated on the conviction that no one’s mind is a totally isolated island in the dynamic sea of human interactions and cognitions, and should not be treated as such.

The Denial of Death in Technological Culturalism: The Drive To Be A Modern Hero
Authors: Keltner Andrew P.
Published: July 2023

This paper looks into the works of anthropologist Ernest Becker, sociologist Jacques Ellul, and the field of terror management theory to understand how technological culture has developed from man’s fear of death. It should be seen that the fear of death along with the obsession with technological efficiency leads to a world wherein most of people’s drives are geared toward reaching an immortal state of being, either symbolically or materially. From this understanding we can then see how problems may arise in a technology world, of which I propose four.
Ethics and business: impact in the field of accounting profession
Authors: Tircovnicu Georgiana
Published: July 2023

Ethics was defined as "the science that deals with the study of moral principles” or better said “the science that includes all the norms of moral conduct corresponding to a certain class or society”. If we are getting more deeply into the essence of this topic, we realize that ethics can be “risky” because it can easily generate conflicts, often at the individual level. This aspect comes from the fact that the society does not understand the values of a healthy ethical attitude. Only the adoption of a healthy ethical attitude can reveal the very essence of a civilized society. The objective of the paper consists in analysis of ethical principles applied to accountants in light of the new code of ethics. Ethics is the foundation on which all our relationships are built, including our way of relating to employers, employees, subordinates, colleagues, customers and suppliers. Ethics does not refer to the connections we have with third parties, but to the quality of these connections. This approach allows a better understanding of how ethics and morality influences the business environment, especially the accounting field. The new version of the code places greater emphasis on the independence of professional accountants to build confidence in the services they provide.
Ethical Problems in Business Contexts and Philosophical Practice as a Way of Dealing with Them
Authors: De Almeida André
Published: July 2023

Ethical issues of one form or another are a constant in a business executive’s daily life. Given the degree of impact which some of their decisions tend to have those issues many times take central stage. At the same time, many of the ethical issues that emerge in business contexts are not addressed in a satisfactory way. In this paper I offer a description of the sorts of ethical problems which can be commonly found in business contexts, focusing on dimensions of that ethical reality which are particularly promising in terms of the potential contribution which philosophical practice can give. I also briefly introduce an explanation for the causes of those problems.

The Role of Philosophical Counselling in Alleviating Alienation
Authors: Vlaicu Adriana
Published: July 2023

Starting from the 18th and 19th centuries the concept of alienation has gradually attracted the interest of philosophers and sociologists. This phenomenon has been receiving even more attention ever since the onset of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, leading to an increase in the interest to investigate its meaning and implications. This is the theme that the current article is also examining, aiming to determine whether university students in Timisoara were experiencing alienation from others in the current context. In this endeavor, we have proceeded by investigating the concept of alienation in order to figure out which philosophers have dealt with alienation from others amongst the many that have written on the subject, continuing with an analysis of the concept of philosophical counselling and the view of philosophical counsellors on the subject of alienation. The study itself is of a quantitative nature, the participants having received a questionnaire where they were asked to rate their level of alienation from others compared to the one they were experiencing prior to the onset of the pandemic. Most respondents scored a “neutral” level of alienation, indicating a not bad, but also not good situation. This neutral result still implies a level of alienation towards others and the need of philosophical counselling in order to reduce its level.
Ontological Vertigo: a natural state
Authors: Eric Hamm Kathryn Cook
Published: July 2023

Doubt and uncertainty are treated as rather abnormal in society. Disturbing states of being, for example anxiety, impostor syndrome, guilt, and confusion, are common phenomena, yet viewed as something to address with psychology, overcome with virtues, or solve with goals and preoccupations to be a good person in decent mental health. If ontological vertigo is understood as a natural state of the human position between the finite and the infinite, the logical conclusion is that human existence is disorienting and uncomfortable. This study looks at the common modes of seeking groundedness: place, status, identity, vocation, potency, meaning, and essence. Existential positions are explored for endorsements of the state of anxiety. Lastly, the authors make an argument for considering ontological vertigo as a natural state instead of seeking false senses of stability.

Published: July 2023

The primary purpose of this research is to investigate the combustion properties of three different types of biogas using a 300 KW BERL combustor. Biogas is a renewable type of this fossil fuel; it is an intelligent fuel that offers an incredibly environmentally beneficial alternative to existing fuels.In order to study the impact of the biogas compositions on the flow field prediction, we perform the calculation using the FLUENT code, which has been used to present the numerical modeling of turbulent diffusion flames by using the realizable k-–ε model of turbulent flow interacting with a two-dimensional PDF combustion scheme. Some comparisons of biogas performance in turbulent diffusion flame mode and methane performance in conventional mode are shown, in addition to the 9-steps, GRI 2.11 mechanisms and experiment data are used to validate the case investigated.
On the enhancement of dc/dc converters dynamics using Gorilla Troop Optimizer based controller design.
Authors: BAKRIA Derradji , GOZIM Djamal , KORICH Belkacem , ELBAR Mohamed
Published: July 2023

DC/DC converters can exhibit highly nonlinear responses when their parameters are changed, such as bifurcation, quasi-periodic, and chaotic responses. In these cases, it is difficult to predict and control the converter's behavior. This paper explores the nonlinear behaviors of a DC/DC buck converter when its parameters are changed (Load, input voltage etc.). The phase plane and the bifurcation diagram are used to identify the various periodicities of the limit cycles. To address this, a solution based on the Gorilla troop optimizer (GTO) is proposed and simulated in MATLAB. Results demonstrate the use of a Aquila optimizer-based controller design can eliminate nonlinear phenomena in DC/DC converters and provide an efficient and cost-effective solution.
