Biodiversity boost to African crop
quota in the Kattegat region between Sweden and Denmark, the Irish Sea and the west of Scotland. Environmental groups have long called for the industry to adopt new technologies and practices that can substantially reduce 'bycatch'. Larger mesh size is one straightforward measure that can save more juvenile fish. Charles Clover, author of The End Of The Line, said: " It is ridiculous that we ca...
متن کاملLarge-Scale Biochar Production from Crop Residue: A New Idea and the Biogas-Energy Pyrolysis System
Biochar is an effective means to withdraw carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and consequently influence the trend of global climate change. However, there still are substantial knowledge gaps for this idea to be applicable. One big question is how to produce biochar from biomass on a large scale. Our idea is to use biogas produced from agricultural wastes as thermal energy for biochar pro...
متن کاملBiochar: Effects on Crop Productivity and Soil Properties
World food security is under challenge to a great extent due to effects of climate change, continued population growth and resource-depleting practices on agriculture (IAASTD, 2009). Presently poor farmers use either organic manure or inorganic fertilizers (Mando et al., 2005; Topoliantz et al., 2005) for maintaining soil fertility as they cannot afford to apply fertilizers as a nutrient source...
متن کاملQuantifying cropping practices in relation to inoculum levels of Fusarium graminearum on crop stubble
This study was conducted in 58 producer-field locations in Manitoba from 2003 to 2006 to understand how cropping practices influence Fusarium graminearum inoculum levels on stubble of various crops, including wheat, collected from the soil surface. Colonies per m (CN) were determined and converted to base-10 logarithm values (log10CN). Mean log10CN of the sampled field for various crops and gro...
متن کاملBurning of Crop Residue and its Potential for Electricity Generation
This paper identified the factors influencing the rice crop residue burning decision of the farmers and the potential of the burnt residue to generate electricity. For this study, data were collected from 400 farmers in the rice-wheat cropping system. Effects of different variables on the burning decision of rice residue are investigated through logit model. A number of factors had significant ...
