Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Cocoa Pod Husk Compost Produced Using Rot Fungi on the Growth of Cocoa SeedlingsLaode Asrul, Iradhatullah Rahim, Tutik Kuswinanti et al.Rot fungi have the ability to decompose organic materials into simple compounds or elements as nutrients for plants. In the process, rot fungi produce secondary metabolites and absorb phosphate from their substrates so that the phosphate become available to plants. The purpose of this study was to identify the species of rot fungi isolated from decaying cocoa stems and to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2018 · 8,502 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Effluent from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka Wastewater Treatment Plant for Irrigation PurposesEmmanuel Amagu Echiegu, Ogochukwu Ruth Eya, Samson Nnaemeka Ugwu, Boniface UgwuishiwuThis study was carried out to determine the suitability of effluents from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) sewage treatment facility for irrigation purposes. The result shows that, from the point of view of ECw, SAR, solids, organic matter content, ion toxicity and nutrients (except Phosphate), the UNN wastewater treatment plant effluent can be safely used for irrigation, especially under … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 21 Apr 2016 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Nitrogen Containing Wastes Addition on Natural Aerobic Composting of Rice StrawThaniya Kaosol, Suchinun Kiepukdee, Prawit TowatanaProblem statement: Rice straw is an agricultural residue. Typically, the rice straw can be burn in the rice field after the harvesting process. The burning can cause air pollution. Another alternative rice straw management method is animal feed. The amount of rice straw is enormus in Thailand. Another sustainable way to manage rice straw is required. Rice straw is used … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 10 Mar 2012 · 8,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuitability Evaluation of Groundwater for Irrigation, Drinking and Industrial PurposesM. A. Hakim, A. S. Juraimi, M. Begum et al.Problem statement: Groundwater is an important source of freshwater for agricultural, drinking and domestic uses in many regions of the world including Bangladesh. Demand of groundwater has been increasing day by day for irrigation by bringing more area under cultivation. As a drinking water the bottled water market currently has an average annual growth rate of 7.4% between 2002 and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,646 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Maturity Level in Laying Hen Manure by Chemical and Thermogravimetric AnalysisAlice Dall’Ara, Francesco Antolini, Laura Billi et al.This study aims at investigating maturity levels in manure from laying hens in order to encourage its agronomic re-utilization. In fact the use of unstable/insufficiently mature manure could potentially damage both soils and crops. Effective, easy to reproduce methods are needed in order to assess bio-stabilisation and maturity levels, particularly for biomass that has not undergone conventional composting. This study … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,542 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dietary Yeasts Enriched with Cu, Fe and Mn on Digestibility of Main Nutrients and Absorption of Minerals by Growing PigsDaniel Korniewicz, Zbigniew Dobrzanski, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.Yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing in 1 kg of dry product, separately 32.0 g Fe (Y-Fe), 23.0 g Cu (Y-Cu), 35.4 g Mn (Y-Mn), were used as the source of these microelements in complete diet for growing pigs. If considering livestock requirements, feed supplementation with this organic form of microelements, covered animals’ requirements in: Fe-27%, Cu-75%, Mn-30%. ZnO was the source … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSupplementation of Prill Fat Derived from Palm Oil on Nutrient Digestibility and Dairy Cow PerformanceLolita Udin Riestanti, Despal, Yuli RetnaniPrill fat is a hydrogenated vegetable oil which contains more than 85% palmitic acid with a high melting point. Due to this reason, it does not melt at rumen temperature and bypass rumen degradation. This study was aimed to determine the optimum level of prill fat (86% palmitic acid) supplementation in dairy ration on fermentation characteristics, feed digestibility, milk production, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2021 · 8,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTeatment of Work Camp Wastewater Using a Sequencing Batch Reactor Followed by a Sand FilterA. Rezaee, A. Khavanin, M. AnsariWork camps, have to be established quickly, are a transient nature and located in environmentally sensitive areas. Wastewater treatment systems located in the work camps often perform poorly. In response to these deficiencies and the need to provide for reliable, cost effective, high efficiency wastewater treatment, the research team designed a sequence batch reactor (SBR)/ sand filter system that is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
