Eupatorium adenophorum is widely distributed throughout the world's tropical and temperate regions. It has become a harmful weed of crops and natural environments. Its leaves contain bioactive compounds such as chlorogenic acid and may be used as feed additives. In this study, chlorogenic acid was extracted and separated from leaves of E. adenophorum. Three chlorogenic acid products were prepar...

The use of green mass annual leguminous crops allows to get a rich amount protein feed. Therefore, the quality must be ensured in context sustainable crop production and feed efficiency. Apparently, pre-sowing seed treatment with different-sized metal particles growth regulators can affect amino acid composition crops. In conducted work, it was found that seeds UFP MoO2 increased content essent...

Most dairies in the U.S. continue to be land-based, that is, they produce most of their feed and use their land to recycle manure nutrients through crops. To remain economically viable, many dairies are increasing herd size and importing more feed. In these systems, the expanded importation of feed and fertilizer P has resulted in large positive P balances (Tunney, 1990; Bundy, 1998; Satter and...

Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate insecticide, used to control foliage and soil-borne insect pests on a variety of food and feed crops. In the natural environment, Chlorpyrifos can be degraded  through  several  possible  processes,  including  photodegradation, biodegradation,  and hydrolysis.  In  the  present  work  the  photodegradation  and  environmental  fate  of  Chlorpyrifos  in aqueo...

Perchlorate has the potential to cause thyroid dysfunction by inhibiting iodide uptake by the sodium iodide symporter. Perchlorate-contaminated waters may lead to human exposure through drinking water and food chain transfer in crops by way of irrigation water. Perchlorate has been found in dairy milk collected nationally and internationally. This study was conducted to evaluate perchlorate in ...
