The objective of this paper is to analyze the Spanish demand for meat taking into account the consumer’s concern about the relationship between food diet and health. This concern is forcing food demand analysts to assume that consumer utility is a function of nutrients instead of simply the food products themselves. Nevertheless, these utility function arguments are not produced in the marketpl...

Although straw-decomposing microbial inoculants (SDMI) are capable to generally promote the fertility of straw-amended soils, their impact on release individual soil major nutrients remains controversial. Additionally, combined effects SDMI and environment/management various forms remain poorly documented. To fill these research gaps, we conducted a meta-analysis study using 1214 paired observa...

The field of nutrition continues to attract increasing interest from health professionals, including dietitians, sports nutritionists and medical practitioners, from biomedical, agricultural, nutritional and food scientists and from health conscious consumers alike. A major driver of this increased interest is the growing global concern about health sustainability and recognition of the economi...

The efficiency of treating citric acid effluent by green algae Chlorella was investigated. With the highest growth rate, Chlorella vulgaris C9-JN2010 that could efficiently remove nutrients in the citric acid effluent was selected for scale-up batch experiments under the optimal conditions, where its maximum biomass was 1.04 g l(-1) and removal efficiencies of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, t...

Look at a plant, and you’re probably also looking at a fungus. More than 80% of land plants partner with fungi to help those plants extract nutrients—nitrogen and phosphorus—from the ground (1, 2). The plants return the favor with carbon from their photosynthesis. Biologists suspect that this partnership was a major factor in allowing plants to move from water to land about 470 million years ag...
