Displaying 96 - 100 of 298Challenges of strategy implementation at indigenous information network organization in arid and semi-arid lands in Kenya
The ability of an organization to implement strategy successfully is important. While it is
the desire of every organisation to keep abreast with changing times and demands in the
environment, it is accepted that having strategic plans on paper and donor conferences is
very different from the on-ground implementation exercise To identify the challenges of
strategy implementation, a case study of Indigenous Information Network was conducted.
The study aimed to answer two research questions: what were the challenges of strategy

Effect of land use changes on adaptive strategies for smallholder agro-pastoralists in Kenya
study to characterize existing adaptive strategies and shifts in smallholder agro-pastoralists in relation to changes in land use and land subdivisions was carried out.

study confronts the problem from the policy, legal-constitutional and institutional dimensions.
Impact of land use types and farming practices on occurrence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) Taita-Taveta district in Kenya
A study was undertaken along land use gradients in Taita-Taveta district, southeast Kenya to evaluate the occurrence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in seven land use types (LUT). The gradient was from indigenous forest (IF) to croplands with coffee (CO), maize (MA), horticulture (HT), napier (NA) and planted forest (PF). A total of 12 AMF morphotypes comprising of 4 Glomus, 1 Claroideoglomus, 5 Acaulosporaceae, 1 Racocetra sp. and 1 Gigaspora were isolated from the study site. Occurrnace of
