Agro-economic Advantages of Different Canola-based Intercropping Systems

Performance and profitability study of different mango based intercropping systems in Easternghat high land

170 Mango is one of the most important and widely cultivated tropical fruits of the world. In India, it is grown in an area of 23.78 lakh hectares with an annual production of 161.98 lakh tones (Indian Horticulture Database-2012). This contributes to 37.8 per cent of total area and 18.6 per cent of total production of fruit crops in India. The plant start bearing 4 to 5 years after planting and...

Agro-climate-based Land Evaluation Systems

evaluation of competitive and economic indices in canola and pea intercropping at different rates of nitrogen fertilizer

the experiment was conducted in order to evaluate of competitive and economic indices in canola and pea intercropping at different rates of nitrogen fertilizer at shahrekord university research farm during 1390 - 1391. intercropping and sole cropping treatments (100% canola; 66% canola + 33% pea, 50% canola + 50% pea; 33% canola + 66% pea; 100% pea) were evaluated as the first factor and nitrog...

Advantages of thermal stability of virgin olive oil over canola and frying oil

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of thermal processing of virgin olive oil, canola and frying oil on chemical oxidative indices (peroxide, p-anisidin value and oxidative stability), acid value and fatty acid compositions. The oil samples were exposed to heat treatment at 180 °C and qualitative parameters were determined at 0, 60, and 90 min after thermal processing. The...

Canola-based Motor Oils

MOTOR OILS Motor oils have been utilized since the development of steam engines as a buffer between moving and static engine components. The basic jobs of the lubricant are to prevent metal-to-metal contact and to transfer heat from friction away from the contact point. During the time of steam power, one of the best lubricants available was derived from rapeseed oil. With the development of in...
