Background A new water-saving techniques involves minimal tillage and intermittent flooding has the advantage
of reducing the production of mosquito larvae, which could in turn reduce the density of adult mosquitoes. The aim
of this study was to evaluate the impact of a new water-saving technique on reducing the number of Anopheles

Determination of the optimal operating distance of a solar PV module under the influence of the electromagnetic field
V. de Dieu Bokoyo Barandja, Idrissa Sourabie, Mamoudou Saria, Eric Simonguy, N. L. Privace M'bouana, Christian Kenfack-Sadem, Ramatou Saré, E. Wendsongré Ramdé, Martial Zoungrana, Issa Zerbo
The effect of an electromagnetic field (EMF) on the various electrical parameters of a photovoltaic (PV) solar cell or PV module is not uniform. A high intensity or proximity to an electromagnetic field increases the photoelectric current, while the photovoltage has the opposite effect. Thus, for certain electrical parameters, the EMF can be c(...)

Valorization of mango by-products: fortification of mugudugu using mango peel and kernels
Wendkouni Marguerite Bamogo, Wendmintiri Jeanne d’Arc Kabré, Abel Tankoano, Mah Alima Esther Traoré, Olivier Banhoro, Charles Parkouda & Aly Savadogo
This study investigates the fortification of mugudugu, a cereal by-product, with powdered mango peel flour (MPF), mango kernel flour (MKF), and their mixtures, aiming to valorize mango by-products abundant in Burkina Faso. Substitution of millet in mugudugu was performed at incremental levels of 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50% by MPF, MKF, or a 1:1 bl(...)

Iron toxicity is a major constraint for rice production, particularly in lowland ecosystems where reduced iron (Fe[II]) accumulates due to activities by iron-reducing bacteria (IRB). This study investigated the dominant cultivable IRB strains in three iron-rich rice-growing areas of Burkina Faso: Moussodougou, Tiefora, and Kou Valley. Soi(...)
