Several procedures, methods, and techniques aiming at generating higher quality foodstuffs with minimal sensory and nutritive qualities have been developed and adapted over the past several decades. Pasteurization is a heat treatment procedure that kills harmful micro-organisms in foods and drinks. Pasteurized juices have been warmed to great temperatures for limited period of time to destroy any germs or bacteria which may still present. Double-pasteurization, that contains a subordinate heating procedure, can increase the shelf-life by killing the spores which have developed. Drying is indeed a natural method of prevent spoiling because most of the disease-causing microorganisms needed a humid environment to exist and grow. Chemical and physical methods of preserving food are used to destroy or hinder the development of germs. Modified atmosphere packaging, different conditions dehydration, controlled atmospheric storage, freezing, refrigeration, vacuum- packing, different forms of thermal treatment, ultraviolet-radiation, ionizing radiation, and extreme hydrostatic pressure are all physical ways of preserving food. canning heat methods are meant to eliminate the spores of a bacteria C. botulinum.

Climate change affects the plant growth by inhibiting the genes involved for promoting the roots, shoots, leaves and reproduction. Toxic gases that accumulated in the air due to heavy chimneys can cause serious environmental and health hazards. Wastewater released from industries can increase the risk of environmental pollution that can be treated through highly effective treatments plants. Soil conservation helps to mitigate these threats of climate change and traditional farming practices by replacing the traditional farming methods employed for agriculture land. Soil conversation through green manure practices required less labor and lower costs that increase farmers profits. Microbial biomass also increases the soil fertility relative to conventional agricultural systems by marinating the nutritional balance between crops and microorganisms. CRISPR is the latest technology for controlling the different microorganisms that causes soil salinity and abnormal growth of seed developments. Nitrogenous fertilizers contribute substantially to the greenhouse gas emissions that promote climate change.

The grains of guar are dehusked mechanically, milled, hydrated and screened according to their use. The guar gum has many industrial applications. It is self-pollinated annual plant having 14 (2n) chromosomes number and belongs to family Fabace. Genus Cyamopsis belongs to sub-family ‘‘Papilionaceae’’ and the tribe ‘‘Indigofereae’’. In the textile industry, it is used in sizing, printing and in finishing. In the paper industry, enhances the sheets formation, folding and gives denser surface for the printing. In the explosion industry, it is used as a waterproofing agent. In milk products it is used as a binding agent. Their genetic diversity can be used as an active tool to predict the association between various characters in genetically different population for improvement of crop enhancement practices. Its yield with different chemical compound trait and is recognized to be related with a number of constituent traits and is extremely affected by environmental deviations. These traits are themselves consistent. The correlation is very significant in plant breeding for its consideration in dependency among two or more characters.

Agroforestry helpful for maintaining the environmental a balance between soil and degradation of hazardous chemicals. Different ecological factors also playing important role in agricultural forestry. Agroforestry has multidimensional approaches for growing the new varieties of plants, cross breeding, and genetic exchange by developing the new varieties of trees. Agroforestry also playing important role in recycling of waste water through efficient treatment water plants. Cacao agroforestry systems are wieldy important in order to grow the specific number of pants growing the different varieties. Consuming of cacao at the optimum level can help with issues such as depression, stress, blood pressure and heart health. Sometimes, nature of soils able to regenerate into new trees. Poorly drained soils, excessive water or insufficient moisture can cause stunted growth and plant decline. Agroforestry strategies such as taungya system and silvopastoral system are reliable for growing the trees. Biofuel for large production of energy in industrials and commercial level by conserving the sustainable development.

Fusarium wilt caused by the fungus Fusarium sp. is rife in all common bean production areas in Côte d'Ivoire. It causes wilting and/or death of plants and yield losses. Chemical control is the most widely used method against this pathology. But the misuse of this method results in environmental pollution, pathogen resistance and human health problems. The search for an alternative solution to chemical control is necessary. It is in this context that this study was initiated. It aims at assessing in vitro and on-farm the effectiveness of the bio-pesticides ASTOUN 50 EC and NOSTAG 50 EC against common bean fusarium wilt pathogen. For this purpose, in vitro, five (5) doses (100, 200, 500, 1000 and 2000 µL/L) of each of the two biopesticides were tested by the method of incorporation into the PDA medium. Under natural conditions, the IC90 and MIC of each bio-pesticide were tested. The results showed that the two bio-pesticides completely inhibited the mycelial growth of Fusarium sp. at doses of 500 μl/L. NOSTAG 50 EC showed an IC90 at 300 μl/L and ASTOUN 50 EC at 400 μl/L. The biopesticides, on-farm, influenced the germination and growth parameters and reduced the wilting of the plants. In short, the 500 μl/L dose of the two biopesticides can be recommended in fusarium wilt control.

Ticks are a significant impediment to the establishment of cattle production units in West Africa, notably in Côte d'Ivoire. A research was conducted at the Yamoussoukro Dairy Station from April to July 2020 to help in the battle against ticks and tick-borne diseases. A total of 1560 ticks were collected from cattle at the indicated station, subdivided into three genera (Boophilus, Amblyomma, and Hyalomma) and four species (R. (B) microplus, R. (B) annulatus, A. variegatum, and H. truncatum). R. (B) microplus was the most prevalent species (48.08 %). The most common species (63.40 %), the most infesting (3.87 ticks/cattle), and the most active (6.10 ticks/cattle) among the cattle at the station were R. (B) microplus. The most common, most numerous (1.63 and 1.62 ticks/cattle), and most active (3.18 ticks/cattle) species among the N'Dama and Zebu were R. (B) microplus (52.73 %) and A. variegatum (50.91 %). The species R. (B) microplus and R. (B) annulatus infest Metis animals significantly. These species have the highest incidence of infection and severity of an attack. In terms of parasite intensity, there was a positive association between R. (B) microplus and R. (B) annulatus.
