Role of agricultural extension in learning for uptake and intensification of less-practiced dairy climate-smart practices in Kenya by Mercy Mburu, John Mburu, Rose Nyikal, Amin Mugera, Asaah Ndambi

“…Besides, there is limited evidence on the learning phase preceding adoption under a pluralistic extension system, while intensity is treated as a one-off process. Therefore, this study aimed to assess factors influencing learning about least adopted DCSPs through different extension providers and, evaluate determinants of adoption and intensity of adoption of least adopted DCSPs. …”

Use of fibre waste as a binder by I. L. Chulkova, I. A. Selivanov

“…A leveling high shrinkage is achieved by introducing light aggregates with a rough surface during the molding process.Discussion and conclusions. The obtained data on the structure, the composition of the fibre waste, as well as the dependence and regularities of the behavior of a highly concentrated dispersed system of the ‘fibre waste-water’ type show the possibility of using the fibre waste for the production of thermal insulation materials, both as a main component and in a composition with aggregates as an independent air binder. …”
