Organic agriculture is rapidly growing while the lack of knowledge and skills to manage organic farms and the lack of market opportunities for the organic products are the most important reasons for the disinclination to the use of the organic agriculture practices. The main aim of this study was to determine the factors underpinning the marketing of organic agriculture products. The research w...

Organic farming has become increasingly popular in the world. This is mostly attributed toescalating consumer concerns over the impacts of pesticides and chemical fertilizers on humanhealth as well as growing concerns over environmental pollution derived from modernagricultural practices, such as rising greenhouse gas emissions and water contaminations. Butdoes organic farming actually displace...

OBJECTIVE To measure the effect of organic food conversion projects on the percentage of organic food used in Danish public kitchens participating in the Danish Organic Action Plan 2020. DESIGN The current longitudinal study was based on measurements of organic food percentages in Danish public kitchens before and after kitchen employees participated in conversion projects. SETTING Public k...

in order to study the effects of different nutrition systems (organic, chemical and integrated) and biofertilizer (pgpr) on phenology period, grain yield and its component in sunflower (helianthus annuus l.) an experiment was conducted using alestar cultivar at the research farm of college of agriculture, tarbiat modares university in 2007. five levels of nutrition systems including f1 (100% or...

in this work, we report the effect of biopolymers (starch and gelatin) on in vitro biocompatibility property of nano hydroxyapatite (nhap) composites. cell culture and mtt assays were performed for in vitro biocompatibility. they show that nhap can affect the proliferation of cells and the nhap-starch and nhap-gelatin biocomposites have no negative effect on the cell morphology, viability and p...

the purpose of this research was to analyzing the perception and technical knowledge of wheat farmers in shoushtar township, khouzestan province, iran regarding organic farming products. the research method employed was correlative-descriptive. the population consisted of wheat farmers in shoushtar township khuzestan province of iran. a random sample of wheat farmers (n = 163) was selected. the...
