Download or read book Sustainable Development in Africa written by Walter Leal Filho and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-09 with total page 729 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book serves the purpose of documenting and promoting African experiences on sustainable development, which encompasses both, formal and non-formal education. Sustainable development is very important to Africa, but there is a paucity of publication which documents and promotes experiences from African countries. Due to their complexity, the interrelations between social, economic and political factors related to sustainable development, especially at universities, need to be better understood. There is also a real need to showcase successful examples of how African institutions are handling their sustainability challenges. It is against this background that this book has been produced. It is a truly interdisciplinary publication, useful to scholars, social movements, practitioners and members of governmental agencies and private companies, undertaking research and/or executing projects focusing on sustainability from across Africa. As African nations strive to pursue the UN Sustainable Development Goals, it is imperative to cater for the information needs seen across the continent and foster the dissemination of experiences and case studies, which may support both, on-going and future efforts. The scope of the book is deliberately kept wide, and we are looking for contributions across the spectrum of sustainable development from business and economics, to arts and fashion, administration, environment, languages and media studies.

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject Agrarian Studies, grade: 4.4, , course: ANIMAL HUSBANDRY AND MANAGEMENT PRACTICES, language: English, abstract: This paper examines the various human and non-human factors endangering snail species' population, growth, development and reproduction both in the wild and under domestication; it also highlights the diseases affecting edible snails, conservation consciousness and preventive management practices to be adopted by snail farmers in West Africa in order to ensure the continued existence of these indigenous species with their enormous nutritional, health and economic benefit to mankind. In recent times, the wild snail species population in West Africa has witnessed a steady decline in its population and biodiversity attributed to the impact of human activities, predators, climatic factors and diseases. With the expected 30% rise in the world’s population from 7.03 billion in 2010 to 9.14 billion in 2030, adequate measures should be taken and adopted to ensure the continued existence of these economic snails biodiversity in the ecosystem. Some of the unsupported snail hunting and population depleting behaviours of the farmers in the region are highlighted and corrected.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The process of farming or raising snails is scientifically referred to as Heliciculture. Snails are small soft animals, usually with a hard round shell on their back which move very slowly. Snail farming is considered a good venture around the world because snail is a cheap source of animal protein and the farming is also easy to set up. Although snails of different origins exist, in this handbook, one of the African giant land snails, Archachatina marginata will be our focus being one of the commonest. The Yoruba’s call it “Igbin Apinnu”; it is the biggest size, even as the adult weighs between 300 -700g. The fleshy part is dark brown and the shell is wider at the posterior end.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DO YOU WANT TO LEARN HOW TO MAKE HUGE PROFITS FROM SNAILS? In this well researched book, the author Professor Cordelia Ifeyinwa Ebenebe uses her vast experience to document years of studies about Snails and Snail Farming highlighting the pros and cons of such a venture. With the apparent inability of conventional animal protein sources to meet the animal protein requirements of Nigeria's fast growing population, there is need to utilize other non-conventional meat sources if Nigeria will attain self sufficiency in meat production. Snail is one of such alternative animal protein sources with unique potential for providing animal protein needs even for landless households in the community. Snail meat is not only rich in protein, but also minerals especially iron and calcium. It is also low in fat. This makes it a useful meat for people with fat related diseases such as high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis and obesity. Snail also has a lot of medicinal properties. Its high iron content is useful in treatment of anemic condition. The glandular substance in snail is used in treating a lot of ailments including whooping cough.Harnessing the usefulness of the snail as a meat animal, demands that snail rearing must go beyond the subsistence rearing system to commercial production scale found in Europe and most Asian countries. This book provides information on the snail biology and management techniques and therefore constitutes a veritable working tool for prospective snail farmers in achieving high margin profitability in snail enterprise. IMPORTANT FACTS Here are some of the important facts you will learn from this book: ★ Classes of Snails ★ External Features of Snails ★ Breeding of Snails ★ Snail Farming and Management ★ Benefits of Snail Farming ★ Nutritional Value of Snails ★ Medicinal Value of Snails ★ Intercontinental and Local Dishes with Snails ★ Uses of Giant Land Snails in Research and Industries FIGURES AND DIAGRAMS To enhance your reading and understanding of the subject, many figures and diagrams are used each well labelled to elucidiate the points covered in the respective chapter. The author also makes several references that are clearly listed in the Reference Section while the Glossary Section defines the scientific terms used throughout the book. Indeed this book is a must read for anyone that wants to do a research about snails or venture into any enterprise relating to Snail Farming.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIVEven today, thirty years after the legal battles to save the endangered snail darter, the little fish that blocked completion of a TVA dam is still invoked as an icon of leftist extremism and governmental foolishness. In this eye-opening book, the lawyer who with his students fought and won the Supreme Court case—known officially as Tennessee Valley Authority v. Hill—tells the hidden story behind one of the nation’s most significant environmental law battles. /divDIV The realities of the darter’s case, Plater asserts, have been consistently mischaracterized in politics and the media. This book offers a detailed account of the six-year crusade against a pork-barrel project that made no economic sense and was flawed from the start. In reality TVA’s project was designed for recreation and real estate development. And at the heart of the little group fighting the project in the courts and Congress were family farmers trying to save their homes and farms, most of which were to be resold in a corporate land development scheme. Plater’s gripping tale of citizens navigating the tangled corridors of national power stimulates important questions about our nation’s governance, and at last sets the snail darter’s record straight. /div

This book was released on 2019-07-24 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conservation, sustainable use and development of aquatic genetic resources (AqGR) is critical to the future supply of fish. The State of the World’s Aquatic Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture is the first ever global assessment of these resources, with the scope of this first Report being limited to cultured AqGR and their wild relatives, within national jurisdiction. The Report draws on 92 reports from FAO member countries and five specially commissioned thematic background studies. The reporting countries are responsible for 96 percent of global aquaculture production. The Report sets the context with a review of the state of world’s aquaculture and fisheries and includes overviews of the uses and exchanges of AqGR, the drivers and trends impacting AqGR and the extent of ex situ and in situ conservation efforts. The Report also investigates the roles of stakeholders in AqGR and the levels of activity in research, education, training and extension, and reviews national policies and the levels of regional and international cooperation on AqGR. Finally, needs and challenges are assessed in the context of the findings from the data collected from the countries. The Report represents a snapshot of the present status of AqGR and forms a valuable technical reference document, particularly where it presents standardized key terminology and concepts.

Download or read book Akwa-Cross People of Nigeria written by Unwana Samuel Akpan and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Akwa-Cross People of Nigeria: History, Heritage, and Culture is the first comprehensive book on Akwa-Cross contemporary historical analysis, and its historical reconstruction. The Akwa-Cross people are the second largest minority tribe in Nigeria whose tradition, culture, language, and history are fast dying. This edited volume is a timely effort in salvaging this information. Previously, historical facts about Akwa-Cross people and their region were distorted, misplaced, and misquoted. Akwa-Cross People of Nigeria: History, Heritage, and Culture edited by Unwana Samuel Akpan corrects historical facts about Akwa-Cross peoples and cultures and provides a holistic and historic text on the history, heritage, and culture of the Akwa-Cross people of Nigeria. The contributors present a compelling collection of studies that build on the path-breaking Akwa-Cross scholarship and offer critical narratives and analysis on tradition, culture, economy, religion, sports, and media of the people of Akwa-Cross. The themes treated in this historic book play a significant part in advancing public discourse on Akwa-Cross and add to the Akwa-Cross pedagogy.
