Real-time data streams can be derived as meaningful and scalable enough to enable real-time healthcare predictive analytics thanks to the new technology approach in distributed messaging and Blockchain, which has become a fundamental component of many healthcare technology stacks. Additionally, absorbing data streams from multiple sources from patterns of data can enhance models that are hampered by complex and lengthy analyses by raising the level of prediction and accuracy. Improved responses, lowered availability requirements, and unified predictive modeling will speed up healthcare interoperability and, in turn, improve diagnosis accuracy, move evidence-based medicine (EBM) in the right direction, and produce other positive effects on healthcare that improve best results and quality.

The ongoing advancement of technology based on sophisticated machine learning and methods that can identify intricate patterns in data undoubtedly benefits this. A sophisticated model that can automate diagnosis could be created utilizing pooled healthcare data thanks to the quickly developing field of artificial intelligence. Additionally, customizing therapies and directing resources with maximum effectiveness in a timely and dynamic manner facilitates a more precise approach to medicine. Regrettably, a number of significant problems prevent AI's unambiguous affirmation. These range from the dearth of clinical studies that can show its dependability and superior effectiveness compared to conventional systems to the difficulties associated with allocating blame in the event of medical errors.

Contact Information For more information, please contact sadiqsanusi30@gmail.com We look forward to your contributions to this important work that aims to raise awareness and drive change in addressing gender-based violence in rural agricultural communities. Scope and Objectives Gender-based violence (GBV) remains a pervasive issue across the globe, with rural agricultural communities often experiencing its most hidden and insidious forms. The socioeconomic , cultural, and environmental factors unique to these communities can exacerbate the vulnerability of women and marginalized groups, leading to a cycle of violence that is often overlooked. This book aims to shed light on the silent suffering endured by those in rural agricultural areas, examining the causes, consequences, and potential solutions to GBV in these contexts. We invite scholars, researchers, and practitioners to contribute original research, theoretical frameworks, case studies, and critical analyses that explore the multifaceted nature of GBV in rural agricultural communities.

On an average total cost of 403139 was incurred while total revenue of 631316 was realized with a gross margin of 356906 and net income of 228177 per hectare per annum. The rate of return on investment of 0.56 implies that for every one naira invested, a return of 1.56 and a profit of 0.56 were obtained with production efficiency index of 1.56 reaffirming the ingenuity of the considerable level of profitability achieved in the enterprise. This showed that fish production in the study area was economically rewarding and profitable. It is capable of creating employment, augmenting income and improving the standards of living of the people. The government participation in fish farming is solicited to boost the quantity of fish available for consumption.

Moench) yield is characterized by low productivity but may be increased through the adoption of new technology or the efficient allocation of existing resources. In addition, improving the level of resource allocation is important for improving productivity. This study investigated resource use efficiency in small-scale okra production. A multi-stage sampling procedure was used to select 100 respondents. The primary data generated through the survey of 100 okra farmers were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the ordinary least squares regression model, and marginal value analysis. The average age of the respondents was 45 years, with 7 members in the household, and 2.8ha being farmed. The ordinary least squares regression estimate indicated age, labor, farm size, and herbicide and insecticide use that influenced okra production. Returns to scale was 2.09; resource use efficiency indicated the following values: farm size 0.343, herbicide applicatio...

This study aimed to assess the agro-input supply sector in Kogi state. A total of 157 input dealers were randomly selected across the twenty-one local government areas in the state. Data were collected using well-structured questionnaire complemented with interview schedule and were analyzed using simple descriptive statistics. Findings reveal that agro-chemicals, fertilizer and feed were the major inputs supplied by most of the retailers and wholesalers that hardly engage in activities that create awareness about their products. Input prices were the most important preference and consideration factor in the purchase of agro-input by customers and form the basis for competition. Casual, family and child labors that proved to be cheaper, commonly accessible...
