It is mostly grown in Sudan Savanna ecological zones for household consumption. To evaluate the possibility of cultivating sesame to boost production to a commercial scale; field experiments
An Improved Model For The Optimization Of The Compressive Strength Of Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete (g.f.r.c.) Using Scheffe’s Second Degree Polynomials
This research work is aimed at developing an improved mathematical model which would be used to optimize the compressive strength of Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) using Scheffe’s Second Degree Polynomial. From Scheffe’s Simplex method the compressive strength of GFRC was determined for different ratios. Control experiments were also carried out and the compressive strength determined. After the test

Its entry was premised on stimulating health development on five outputs centred on achieving MDGs 4, 5 and 6. The research design was basically
Neo Traditional Pastoral Community Climate Change Coping Strategy In The Southern Rangelands Of Kenya
This study was carried out in the Southern Maasai rangelands of Kenya between November 2010 and June 2011 with the specific objective of assessing socio economic climate change coping strategies in the Southern rangelands of Kenya in Mashuru Sub-Country, Kajiado County. The overall goal was to develop a strategy for enhancing neo-traditional climate change coping in a semi-arid pastoralist region.
