Approach: In this study, the threshing unit of a type of single … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Effective Factors on Threshing loss, Damaged Grains Percent and Material Other than Grain to Grain Ratio on an Auto Head Feed Threshing UnitE. Askari Asli-Ardeh, Y. Abbaspour-GilandehProblem Statement: Regarding to considerable production of rice crop in Iran, study and investigation about optimization of different stages of this product processing seems necessary. The threshing of rice is a process which must be accomplished desirability. Approach: In this study, the effective factors effects on threshing loss, damaged grain percent and Material Other than Grain (MOG) to grain ratio, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,914 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoremediation of Anaerobic Digester Effluent for Water Purification and Production of Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, H.A. FaragThe application of phytoremediation for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops was investigated. Four crops (two cereals and two grasses) were examined for their ability to grow hydroponically and to remove pollutants (nutrients) from dairy wastewater. The preliminary experiments showed that timothygrass and orchardgrass did not perform well as aquatic plants. Only 24 and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponses of Rice to Green Manure and Nitrogen Fertilizer ApplicationMd Safiqul Islam, Nitish Kumar Paul, Md Robiul Alam et al.The effect of green manure and nitrogen fertilizer applications on rice performance and post-harvest nutrient status of the soil was studied at the Regional Wheat Research Station of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Shyampur, Rajshahi, Bangladesh. The experiment comprised two sets of treatments: (i) green manure application (Crotalaria jusncea, Sesbania aculeata, Sesbania rostrata,Vigna radiata, and Phaseolus mungo) and (ii) application … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 1 Sep 2015 · 7,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFLOW CYTOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF NUCLEAR DNA BETWEEN OKRA LANDRACES (ABELMOSCHUS ESCULENTUS L.)Naser M. SalamehOkra Abelmoschus esculentus L. (Moench), is an economically important vegetable crop grown in tropical and sub-tropical as well as Mediterranean countries. The genome size of the Abelmoschus genus species is still rare. Ploidy determinations have traditionally been done by counting chromosomes of stained root tips, but this method is laborious and often difficult with species which have small chromosomes and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Feb 2014 · 8,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUpdates on Nutritional Diversity in Sphenostylis stenocarpa (Hoechst ex. A. Rich.) Harms. for Food Security and ConservationCatherine Veronica Nnamani, Sunday Adesola Ajayi, Happiness Ogba Oselebe et al.Neglected and underutilized plant genetic resources constitute opportunity for diversification of food and environmental services globally, particularly within communities in developing country. They can provide, in some cases, higher nutrient content than traditional globally accepted staples commonly consumed. Currently, with climate uncertainty and the desire and challenge for sustainably produced food, there is an urgent need to promote crop diversity. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 10 Jul 2018 · 9,337 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING PHOSPHORUS NUTRITION OF COTTONWalter B. Gordon, Larry Murphy, Pawel WiatrakCrop recovery of applied Phosphorus (P) fertilizer can be low, especially during season of low soil temperature, which decreases plant root growth and nutrient uptake. The H2PO4- or HPO4-2 anions readily react with soil cations such as Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), iron (Fe) and Aluminum (Al) to produce various phosphate compounds of very limited water solubility. Specialty Fertilizer Products (SFP), … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 10 May 2014 · 7,112 accessesView PDFCite
