“…When the king of Prussia tried, in 1806, to incorporate Hanover into his dominions, even Charles James Fox, having recently become foreign secretary and anxious to improve relations with George III, supported a declaration of war against Prussia and insisted on the unconditional return of Hanover to George III. 59 The public policy issue with which George III was most associated by contemporaries and subsequent historians was Britain's fatal dispute with the American colonies. His role in this crisis has been exaggerated, especially across the Atlantic.…”

Circumstances were auspicious when George III came to the throne in 1760, but soon his political actions were much criticized and he was accused from early in his reign until well into the 20th century of weakening the independence of parliament and undermining the constitution. Some contemporaries did defend him and these views received powerful support from Sir Lewis Namier and his followers in the 20th century. Both interpretations have their flaws, however, because of the failure to recognize the profound changes in the context in which George acted over his long reign and the subtle changes that occurred in Britain's unwritten constitution over that half century. By examining how the king appointed and dismissed ministers, sought to influence the composition of both houses of parliament, and endeavoured to shape government policy, this article seeks to revise our understanding of the king's relations with parliament and the constitution and to relocate our overall assessment of him between those offered by his many critics and defenders both during his reign and long afterwards.

“…Making use of the leaves as extract as foliar fertilizers could be of great help to the growers of Sakurab if the study is found effective. Apart from the abundant supply of Sakurab in Lanao del Sur, Riotte (1978) found that Sakurab is used to repel moths. It is said that the juice of the plant repels insects and moles.…”

The demand for tomatoes is constantly high all year round. They are one of the most popular crops among home gardeners and farmers worldwide. Not only are they delicious, but they are also easy to grow and could provide high returns for the space they occupy. However, tomatoes are highly sensitive to several biotic and abiotic stresses. This study aimed to evaluate two varieties of tomatoes and their interaction effects in response to the application of Sakurab leaf extract as organic foliar fertilizer and insect pest repellent. It utilized Split Plot Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) replicated three times with 30 plots comprising two main plots: Tomato variety (V1 – Braveheart and V2 – Diamante). Each main plot was divided into five equal sub-plots: Sakurab leaf extract concentration [ F1 – control (no foliar application), F2 – 2% foliar fertilizer (20 ml/ L of water), F3 – 5% foliar fertilizer (50 ml/ L of water), F4 – 10% foliar fertilizer (100 ml/ L of water), and F5 – 15% (150 ml/ L of water) levels of concentrations. In terms of growth parameters, results revealed that the varying levels of Sakurab leaf extract foliar application did not significantly affect the plant height, days to first flowering, days to fruiting, and the days to harvest. However, the marketable fruits per tomato plot, marketable fruits per plant, and the marketable yield of tomato plants per hectare were significantly (P < 0.05) affected by varying levels of Sakurab foliar application. Based on the findings, the Diamante variety applied with a 15% (150 ml/L of water) level of Sakurab leaf extract concentration which produced the most marketable fruits per plot and the yield per ton/ha is recommended. Further experiment using a higher level of concentration of Sakurab leaf extract such as 30%, 60%, and 90% within a controlled environment, including the assessment of pest and disease incidence is proposed.
