چکیده
This paper describes the key system components of a team of three tractors in a peat moss harvesting operation. The behavior and actions of the tractors were designed to mimic manual harvest operations while maintaining a safe operating environment. To accomplish this objective, each of the three tractors was equipped with a bolt-on automation package, and a human operator (team leader) was given a remote user interface to

Type of growing medium affects growth of the hydroponic crops. In order to select a suitable medium for hydroponic lemon balm, two greenhouse experiments were carried out on growing media containing different particle sizes of perlite and peat moss mixed with perlite. In the first experiment, growing media treatments were very fine perlite (<0.5 mm), fine perlite (0.5-1 mm), medium perlite (1-1...

Extended Abstract Introduction: Today, seed priming is widely used to improve seed germination in a wide range of plant species. As a result of seed pre-treatment, several molecular and biochemical changes occur, including increased macromolecule synthesis, enzyme activity and formation of different metabolites. Enzymatic and metabolic activities, synthesis of proteins in quantitative and qual...

In this study, possibility of substituting date palm fibers, as a growth medium, for coco peat was investigated. First, moisture absorption, retention and loosing rate in date palm fibers, coco peat, peat moss, perlite and soil were examined by completely randomized blocks design in two time periods (3 and 5 days), with two groups of materials (date palm fibers- peat moss- perlite and coco peat...

To evaluate the effect of different culture media on growth indices of Pelargonium ×hortorum “Maverick Star” in plug culture, a greenhouse experiment was carried out based on a completely randomized design with seven treatments and four replications. The treatments were seven different substrates including peat moss (100%), cocopeat (100%), peat moss + cocopeat (60%+40%), peat moss + cocopeat (...

Dut to econemic and envaironmental limitiations of peat moss as a growth medium for ornamental plants, researchers seek an apporiate alternative in flower and plants industry. Zeolite, due to its high potential in water holding capcity and cation enchange capacity, has the ability to replace peat moss. To investigate the posibility of subtituting peat moss by zeolite as a proper medium for grow...
