One of the sources that contribute to food shortage is poor productivity levels. This study examines the impact of employing irrigation on grain maize productivity using 350 sample farm households in Ethiopia. Propensity score matching technique was employed since it is one of the most common and increasingly utilized standard methods for evaluating impacts using observational data. And the study found that irrigators enjoy a positive and significantly higher productivity, on the average from 42-45% higher, than their counterparts, non-users.

Several circumstances may involve the development of microcephaly in the context of Zika infection. Mutations and the immune response caused by the virus may be part of the theoretical direction in the context.

A systematic review was conducted with meta-analysis on immunology and zika mutations in the development of microcephaly. A literature search was conducted on PubMed e Scopus online databases, with a search period for the past 5 years.

Copolymers of trimethylene carbonate (TMC) and L-lactide (LA) with distinct compositions were prepared in solution employing [Mg(OEt)2]2∙[Ti(OBu)4] as initiator. Our results showed that the reactions in solution are considerably slower compared with the same copolymerizations carried out in bulk, however the copolymer ratios observed by NMR tracks the feed ratio excellently when the reactions were performed in toluene at 90o C.

Carbendazim is an extensively used fungicide for protection of crops, fruits and vegetables against fungal diseases, and also for protection of harvested products during their storage and transportation. Carbendazim inhibits the synthesis of nucleic acids and cell division in fungi. The present study is an attempt to examine the effect of non-lethal concentration of Carbendazim on potential developmental stages of Zebrafish (Danio rerio).
