The protein, amino acid composition of crops used in the production of bakery products has been thoroughly studied. The protein content amounted in wheat (21%), rye (18,2%), corn (13.1 %). Higher biological value proteins differed rye that 46.7% of the essential amino acids. The range for solubility of proteins of wheat, rye and corn was set. The highest albumin content was noted in the composi...

Plastic film mulching (PM) is widely utilized for maize production in China. However, the effect of PM on the grain yield of crops has not been established, and the biochemical mechanism underlying the increase or decrease in grain yield under PM is not yet understood. Grain filling markedly affects the grain yield. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of PM on maize grain...

The purpose, application features, advantages and disadvantages of using bunkers-reloaders in comparison with grain carriers, features choosing a suitable model, the main stages their work when harvesting crops technical characteristics are presented.

Cropland diversity has diminished with the advent of mechanized agriculture. In some cases, a single crop is grown year after year in the same field. The lack of diversity in crops rotated in a field has allowed pests to build up, reduced yields, and in some cases increased soil erosion and reduced soil quality. Recognizing these problems, efforts are underway in many farming regions to add mor...

Brachypodiumdistachyon is a suitable plant model for studying temperate cereal crops, such as wheat, barley or rice, and helpful in the study of the grain cell wall. Indeed, the most abundant hemicelluloses that are in the B. distachyon cell wall of grain are (1-3)(1-4)-β-glucans and arabinoxylans, in a ratio similar to those of cereals such as barley or oat. Conversely, these cell walls contai...
