Evaluation of Wavelength Selective Mulch for Pepper Production
Plasticulture studies were continued on bell pepper. Total marketable fruit yields of 4.85, 3.94 and 3.09 tons per acre were obtained from plants grown on silver, white, and black plastic mulches, respectively. Number of fruits produced per plant followed the same trend. Individual fruit weights of 85-117g were not significantly different among treatments. Fruit set as indicated by number of fr...
متن کاملNanotechnology Tolls the Bell for Plastic Surgeons
Nanotechnology is an emerging discipline, having power to revolutionarize every scientific field to a very deep level which previously thought to be a science fiction. Having a great potential to beneficially change the way a disease is diagnosed, treated and prevented, nanotechnology practically impacts on state of the art healthcare technologies and plays a crucial role in changing the field ...
متن کاملMode of action of plastic film in extending life of lemon and bell pepper fruits by alleviation of water stress.
The mechanism by which seal-packaging individual fruit in high density polyethylene film delays deterioration was investigated with lemon (Citrus limon [L.] Burm. f. cv Eureka) and bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L. cv Maor) fruits. Seal-packaging effects were due to the water-saturated atmosphere in the sealed enclosure around the fruit. Softening of fruit was highly correlated with declining wat...
متن کاملRunoff loss of pesticides and soil: a comparison between vegetative mulch and plastic mulch in vegetable production systems.
Current vegetable production systems use polyethylene (plastic) mulch and require multiple applications of agrochemicals. During rain events, runoff from vegetable production is enhanced because 50 to 75% of the field is covered with an impervious surface. This study was conducted to quantify off-site movement of soil and pesticides with runoff from tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) plots ...
متن کاملPredicting Harvest Labour Allocation in Bell Pepper Production
In the production of tomatoes in greenhouses, a more or less constant number of tomatoes are ready for picking at each harvest time. In the production of bell peppers, however, large fluctuations exist in number of fruits ready to pick. This major problem in bell pepper production is called ‘flushing’: weeks with high yields are alternated by weeks with low yield. This irregular harvest pattern...
