Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Grazing Sorghum Stubble on Soil Physical Properties and Subsequent Crop PerformanceB.J. Radford, D.F. Yule, M. Braunack, C. PlayfordTwo grazing trials were conducted on a Vertosol in central Queensland to assess the effects of stubble grazing by cattle on soil properties and subsequent crop performance. Two adjacent contour bays were selected for two treatments (grazed and ungrazed) in each trial. Both trials were conducted following a grain sorghum crop. In trial 1 (during 1996) the surface soil was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining Nutritive Values of Alfalfa Cuts Using in situ and Gas Production TechniquesA. Taghizadeh, V. Palangi, A. SafamehrIn order to determine of nutritive value of alfalfa in different cuts using in situ and gas production technique, this study was carried out. Three wethers (49±2.6 kg) were used in in situ method. The gas production was measured at 2,4,6,8,12,16,24,36,48,72 and 96 h and ruminal dry matter and crude protein disappearance were measured at 0,4,8,12,16,24,36,48,72 and 96 h. Dry … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,297 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolution of Biochemical Parameters During Composting of Various Wastes CompostN. Saidi, M. Cherif, N. Jedidi et al.In Tunisia the most treatment waste is landfill (50% of wastes were land filled) and only 5% are composted. And since our soil become more and more poor in organic matter, green waste can be a significant source of organic matter; in parallel we cited the domestic waste and dead posodonia collected from beaches. All these wastes coming from various … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,933 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 · 6,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAppraisal of Thermal Properties of Mud in the Ariake Sea, JapanM. Azizul Moqsud, Shigenori Hayashi, Yan Jun Du, Daisuke SuetsuguIn order to explore the thermal properties of the Ariake Sea mud and to find out the affecting factors which affect these values, a portable thermal properties analyzer was used. Thermal conductivity, thermal resistivity, thermal diffusivity and volumetric heat capacity of the mud samples collected from both the tidal flat and inside the deep sea were measured in the laboratory. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,966 accessesView PDFCite
