The model chi-square value of 43.47 (approximately 44% ) was significant. Thus, the indication is that the model has a good fit in predicting the possibility of a fuel retail outlet being located in the core or peripheral zone of the metropolis as determined by the explanatory variables (the independent variables accounted for about 44% of possible factors which determined whether a fuel retail outlets is located either within the core or peripheral zones of the metropolis. The remaining 56% are factors not considered in the study). The result gotten from the in depth interview sessions corroborated the findings from the tested hypothesis. The third objective was to examine the effects which the supply chain technique employed (either vertically integrated model or third-party arrangement) has on the achievement of efficient and effective distribution of the products. In order to achieve this objective, all the 389 registered members of Petroleum Tanker Drivers (PTD) association who are members of the PTD in the metropolis were sampled, 265 (around 70%) of the distributed questionnaires were retrieved and used for the analysis. In depth interview sessions were also conducted with three different managers of the three major conglomerates in the downstream sector of the Nigerian petroleum sector. The result of one-way between subjects (ANOVA) which was conducted to compare differences in the management and performances of haulage services outsourced to the 3PLS and those run under VIM showed that there was a significant effect of ownership type on management performance (F (2,262) = 60.26, p<.05). The null hypothesis was therefore rejected while the alternate hypothesis was accepted. The findings from the interview sessions posted similar results. The fourth and final objective was to analyze the effect that the socio-economic attributes of the participants (haulers and managers of retail outlets) involved in the distribution of xxvi petroleum products has on the safe, efficient and cost-effective distribution of product and this was done through the use of descriptive statistics, inferential statistics and incisive analysis of the interview sessions. A total number of 265 (70%) out of the 389 registered members of Petroleum Tanker Driver Association (PTDA) participated in the study. Multiple regression analysis (MRA) was used to test this hypothesis. The result from the statistical analysis show that the use of stimulant, work condition, marital status and educational attainment/literacy level have joint influence on compliance (R2 = 0.31, F (4,260) = 29.72, p<.05). On the basis of the foregoing, the hypothesis is thus accepted. The result from the interview sessions confirmed the existence of strong relationship between the explanatory variables and the hypothetical dependant variable. The study recommended a review of the planning processes guiding the establishment of fuel retail outlets. The study also advocated that retailers should endeavour to have stronger control over the supply chain of their products this could done by investing more in VIM rather than outsourcing such functions to 3PLs. This will help in better business performances. Government agencies in charge of monitoring drug abuse among haulers are advised to be more proactive by the duo of prevention and punishment strategies. This should include advocacy campaign against drug abuse. Different ranges of punishments should also be meted out for individual haulers found culpable.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 15:06:55 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40195 Wed 12 May 2021 15:06:06 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40866 Wed 12 May 2021 15:02:03 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40204 Wed 12 May 2021 15:01:15 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:42703 Wed 12 May 2021 14:59:21 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40715 Wed 12 May 2021 14:55:38 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40733 Wed 12 May 2021 14:53:41 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40716 Wed 12 May 2021 14:49:08 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40726 Wed 12 May 2021 14:49:05 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:41091 Wed 12 May 2021 14:47:11 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40736 .05, partial η2 = 0.00). Based on these findings, it was recommended that teachers should adopt service learning and collaborative learning strategies in the teaching of environmental concepts and problems in Social Studies in order to improve students’ performance in Social Studies. Teachers should facilitate the use of service learning and collaborative learning strategies in schools to improve students’ environmental problem-solving skills and their achievement in the subject. Teaching institutions should not only include service learning and collaborative learning strategies in their curriculum but should endeavour to provide practical experience for pre-service teachers to be well grounded and equipped on the use of these strategies.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 14:46:14 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40192 Wed 12 May 2021 14:45:10 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40405 Wed 12 May 2021 14:44:25 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40779 Wed 12 May 2021 14:41:12 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40513 Wed 12 May 2021 14:39:12 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40067 Wed 12 May 2021 14:37:44 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40739 Wed 12 May 2021 14:37:30 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40723 Wed 12 May 2021 14:36:09 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40533 Wed 12 May 2021 14:36:01 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40834 Wed 12 May 2021 14:35:11 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40692 Wed 12 May 2021 14:33:53 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40864 Wed 12 May 2021 14:32:29 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40863 Wed 12 May 2021 14:31:50 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40799 Wed 12 May 2021 14:31:29 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40717 Wed 12 May 2021 14:29:38 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:41132 Wed 12 May 2021 14:29:11 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40522 Wed 12 May 2021 14:28:53 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40789 Wed 12 May 2021 14:27:15 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:42608 Wed 12 May 2021 14:26:42 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40061 Wed 12 May 2021 14:25:46 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40025 Wed 12 May 2021 14:25:16 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40403 Wed 12 May 2021 14:25:03 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40734 Wed 12 May 2021 14:24:22 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40534 Wed 12 May 2021 14:24:01 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:42248 Wed 12 May 2021 14:23:13 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40836 Wed 12 May 2021 14:22:24 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:41089 Wed 12 May 2021 14:20:42 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40710 Wed 12 May 2021 14:20:10 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40722 Wed 12 May 2021 14:19:27 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:41101 Wed 12 May 2021 14:17:31 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40766 Wed 12 May 2021 14:13:30 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40700 Wed 12 May 2021 14:13:00 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:41137 Wed 12 May 2021 14:11:18 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40848 Wed 12 May 2021 14:08:59 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:41079 Wed 12 May 2021 14:08:51 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40770 Wed 12 May 2021 14:08:26 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40713 Wed 12 May 2021 14:08:19 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40042 Wed 12 May 2021 14:06:35 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40673 Wed 12 May 2021 14:05:55 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40674 Wed 12 May 2021 14:05:29 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:41135 Wed 12 May 2021 14:04:43 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40018 0.05). Furthermore, histopathological evaluation of organs revealed that no abnormalities were in heart and liver and kidney of rats fed on the control diet, while mild congestion in the liver and myocardium (heart) were observed in rats fed with protein deficient diet. No visible abnormalities were observed in the heart, kidney and liver of animals on the PD 10 diet, but myocardial fibres showing intense eosinophilia was detected in heart muscles of rats fed PD and PD3 diets. In this study, MOLM had a negative impact on feed intake and growth performance of animals and haematology. Blood biochemistry and histology suggest that MOLM has the potential of defending the body against infection with hematinic and blood enhancing qualities. Protein deficiency led to a significant elevation in the serum lipid profile of rats especially cholesterol even with increase in MOLM. PD10 had the highest triglycerides content when compared to the control but was lower (p>0.05) to that of PD. There was an increase in crude fat, ADF, NDF and protein in faecal samples of rats supplemented with MOLM diets while a decrease in moisture and ash was observed compared to the control.Vitamin and mineral deficiency resulted in significant decrease in serum cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL-C when compared to the control. There was a slight increase in excretion for all elements with increasing MOLM. Total removal of minerals and vitamins from the VMD experimental diets seemed not to have any visible negative impact on performance of the rats probably because of residual micronutrients present in other ingredients used in the feed formulation.

Comparing years, forage DM yield only under Bendioxide (BEN) and Paraquat (PAR) treatments had greater DM yield in year 2 than years 1. In Kubedlana, Bendioxide (BEN) and Haloxyfop-R methyl (HAL) treatments showed an IV increase in total density (TD), whereas Glyphosate (GLY) produced the lowest total density (TD) and Paraquat (PAR) and Haloxyfop-R methyl (HAL) resulted in an increased in density of total legumes (TL) relative to control treatment. There was a decline (p < 0.05) in the densities of total plants and forbs from year 1 to year 2. In Sinqumeni, herbicide applications resulted in higher density of total legumes than the control treatment, but results varied among herbicide treatments, greatest density being obtained at Haloxyfop-R methyl & Bendioxide (HBE) and Haloxyfop-R methyl (HAL) treatments. On phosphorus study, result showed a significant (p < 0.05) differences in dry matter (DM) yield among Phosphorus (P) treatments during year 2 of the study at Kubedlana site. All P treatments showed significantly greater dry matter (DM) yield in forage harvested in year 2 compared to year 1. At Sinqumeni, results showed Phosphorus (P) application did not have significance (p > 0.05) effect on forage dry matter (DM) yield on both years. In Kubedlana, there were indications of increased densities of total grasses, legumes and total plants in response to some levels of phosphorus (P) treatments. Treatment Phosphorus at 20 kg ha-1 (P20) yielded the highest total density (TD) and total legumes (TL) numbers and P10 had the lowest total density (TD). Both treatment and year interacted significantly (p < 0.05) to influence the mean density of some plant variables. At Sinqumeni, there were no significant differences due to phosphorus (P) treatments in the densities of total plants, grasses and forbs. Both years interacted significantly (p < 0.05) with treatments to influence the plant density mean, with Lespedeza cuneate (LESP) producing the highest plant density during year 1 and year 2, whereas BSERRL produced the lowest plant density during year 1 and year 2 periods. Therefore, findings of this study suggest that application of both Bendioxide (BEN) & Haloxyfop-R methyl & Bendioxide (HBE) treatments result in a decrease in dry matter (DM) yield, whereas Glyphosate (GLY) herbicide resulted in a decrease in both total density (TD) and total legumes (TL) and Haloxyfop-R methyl (HAL) herbicide application resulted in an increase of total density (TD) and total legumes (TL) V relative to control plot. On phosphorus study, results suggest that at Phosphorus at 40 kg ha-1 (P40) fertilization dry matter (DM) yield will be increased and at both Phosphorus at 20 kg ha1 (P20) and Phosphorus at 40 kg ha-1 (P40) high total density (TD) will be recorded where’s Phosphorus at 20 kg ha-1 (P20) fertilization result in high total legumes (TL).]]> Thu 13 May 2021 00:11:40 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40768 Thu 07 Mar 2024 09:53:15 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:40704 Mon 06 May 2024 15:05:59 SAST ]]>
