2005-2015 a Decade Building Capacity

This brochure is a compilation of a decade's (10 years) adventure into research and documentation, capacity building and contributing to growing knowledge-base among students through scholarly publications in basic and applied knowledge in agricultural engineering. The impacts of such contributions are evident in the number of people who had accessed these works on major search engines such as Academia.edu, Google, Amazon.com, Createspace, InTech etc and several other individual contacts on mobiles either placing orders, or requesting consultancy, or seeking to advertise the publications across the globe. Richard Threvithick (1771-1833), a contemporary of the legendary James Watt was quoted as saying in part that ..". I shall be satisfied by the great secret pleasure and laudable pride that I felt in my breast (heart) from having been instrumental to bringing forward and maturing (nurturing) new principles and arrangements of boundless value to my country. However much I may be straitened (constrained) in pecuniary (economic) circumstances, the great honour of being a useful subject can never be taken from me, which to me far exceeds riches"(emphasis mine). To this end, my contentment is in the evidences and feedback (included in this brochure) from those who had benefited from the Grace of God upon my life through the documentations presented in this brochure; which to me far exceeds riches.
