Enhanced Cd concentrations in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain produced on saline soils of central Iran have been recently reported. Because wheat bread is a major dietary component for the Iranian people, practical approaches to decrease Cd concentration in wheat grain were investigated. This study investigated the influence of sunflower-wheat vs. cotton-wheat rotations on extractable Cd and...

leaving crop residues on the soil surface may significantly affect the behavior and activity of herbicides. in order to study the effect of wheat residue and different rates of trifluralin (%48 ec) herbicide on the yield and oil content of sunflower (helianthus annuus) a field experiment was done in agricultural research station, the university of birjand in summer 2008. experimental design was...

The large-scale industrial use of polysaccharides to obtain energy is one the most discussed subjects in science. However, modern concepts biorefinery have promoted diversification these polymers several bioproducts incorporating sustainability and circular economy. This work summarizes major sources agro-industrial residues, physico-chemical properties, recent application trends cellulose, chi...

Aim of study: This research investigated the effects management practices, including plant residues and tillage on soil stability indices, microbial biomass carbon, number bacteria.Area Northern Khorasan Province, Iran.Material methods: study explored three year-old systems conventional (CT), minimum (MT), no-tillage (NT) at levels 0, 40, 70% physical microbiological properties for a rotation y...

The rice–wheat cropping system is the main food bowl in Asia, feeding billions across globe. However, productivity and long-term sustainability of this are threatened by stagnant crop yields greenhouse gas emissions from flooded rice production. negative environmental consequences excessive nitrogen fertilizer use further exacerbating situation, along with high labor water requirements transpla...

for small cheese-making factories, with no effluent treatment plants, whey can be a serious problem and the landfarming technique represents an alternative for its disposal. however, whey may contain antibiotic residues at the maximum residue limits. therefore, in this work, we evaluated the phytotoxic effect of different concentrations of five antibiotics (enrofloxacin, kanamycin, oxytetracycl...

Enzymes are useful to modify wheat proteins to preserve the gas better and to correct the rheological properties of the dough of weak flour and bread. Gluten proteins are highly impacting the quality of various gluten-based products, and transglutaminases (TGs) leading to the strengthening, stability and constancy of the dough as well as the improvement of the volume, texture and storage time o...

Cereal Chem. 88(2):217–222 A better understanding of the variation in oxidative cross-linking potential among flour mill streams can improve flour quality through the formulating of superior flour blends, and hence end-product attributes. The purpose of this research was to study the variation of oxidative crosslinking among 10 Miag Multomat pilot mill streams from 31 hard, soft and club wheat ...

In most of the cases, standard cultivation cereal crops by agricultural producers is carried out applying practices, which are unsustainable in long term. Especially treatment post-harvest residues (mostly burning stubble rice, wheat and barley), contributes to increase risk faster mostly irreversible or very slow reversible degradation natural resources. The must be accordance with strategies ...
