		The main factors leading to the late maturity of the early maize crop, and hence the delay in the harvest, include late planting coupled with unusually wet and cold weather conditions during July.
		It is feared that the cold and damp conditions prevailing in Nyanza and South Rift Provinces will slow down the drying process and may increase pre-and post harvest losses.

		In recent years Lake Tanganyika, like many other large lakes of the world, has begun to feel the effects of a variety of human impacts, including fishing pressures, an increased rate of sediment accumulation along rocky coasts caused by deforestation and soil erosion in the lake’s watersheds, and climate change.
		A major focus of current research on the lake (and an area of particular interest to several of the Nyanza Project faculty) is understanding the nature of these impacts and their severity.
		As a member of the Nyanza Project team, you will have the opportunity to get involved in some very exciting and important research projects.
