METRIBUZIN SORPTION DYNAMICS IN ACID SOILS OF NZOIA SUGARCANE ZONE IN WESTERN KENYA
(2011)
The adsorption, desorption and leaching of metribuzin in agricultural soil samples taken
from Nzoia sugarcane farming area in Kenya were determined using standard methods. The
Freundlich adsorption isotherm constants ...
Influence of nitrogen fertilizer rates and harvesting intervals on the clonal tea green leaf fatty acids levels in the Lake Victoria Basin of Kenya
(CABI, 2011)
Tea agronomic recommendations in Lake Victoria basin are uniform, despite different regions producing teas of different qualities and yields. It is not known if these differences arise from variations in cultivars, agronomic ...
Effects of long term fertilizer use on a high yielding tea clone S15/10: Soil pH, mature leaf nitrogen, mature leaf and soil phosphorus and potassium
(CABI, 2011)
Harvesting (plucking) the young tender shoots of Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze to make tea beverages results in removal of high amounts nutrients from the soil. AHPS15/10 is a high-yielding tea clone with average annual ...

(CABI, 2011)
This proceedings contains twenty papers presented at the Cluster Workshop, held in Nairobi, Kenya, from 30 November to 2 December 2011. The papers detail natural resources management and land use in Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda ...
Yield response of tea clone 6/8 to growing environments, nitrogenous fertiliser application and plucking intervals in East Africa.
(Inter-University Council for East Africa Lake Victoria Research Initiative, 2011)
In East Africa, tea growing areas fall in several agro-ecological regions, differing widely in elevation and climatic factors. Despite the differences, agronomic inputs are uniform throughout the region. Clone TRFK 6/8 is ...
Effect of nitrogenous fertilizer application and harvesting intervals on yield of tea clone TRFK 6/8 in Tanzania
(Inter-University Council for East Africa Lake Victoria Research Initiative, 2011)
The response of tea clone TRFK 6/8 to nitrogenous fertilizer application and plucking intervals was examined at two sites in Lake Victoria basin in Tanzania between October 2008 and May 2011. The yield varied among locations ...
Response of tea cultivars to growing environments in Kenya.
(Inter-University Council for East Africa Lake Victoria Research Initiative, 2011)
In East Africa, tea growing areas fall in several agro-ecological regions differing widely in elevation, climatic factors and soil conditions. However, environmental and climatic factors which control growth vary with ...
Measurement invariance of discipline in different cultural contexts
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-06-01)
The measurement invariance of mother-reported use of 18 discipline strategies was examined in samples from 13 different ethnic/cultural groups in nine countries (China, Colombia, Italy, Jordan, Kenya, the Philippines, ...
