this research was conducted to compare the effects of two medicinal plants (peppermint and aloe vera) and antibiotic growth promoter on ileum microflora population and growth performance of broiler chickens. in this experiment, 375 one-day old male broiler chickens (ross 308) were used on a completely randomized design with 5 dietary treatments which were replicated 5 times with 15 birds per re...

Nano-fertilizers are designed in order to gradually release their food contents. They are also manufactured in such a way that the time of their liberation matches with the food product requirement. The use of nano-fertilizers leads to an increase in the efficiency of the consumption of food elements. With regard to the strategic importance of cotton plant and the effects of zinc in increasing ...

This study examines the impact that various incentives to export have on the export marketing performance of Australian export market ventures. The incentives to export used in this study were adapted from Sullivan and Bauerschmidt (1990). The unit of analysis was Australian export market ventures engaged in exporting to foreign markets. Data were gathered via a self-administered mail survey di...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of non-starch polysaccharides of barley supplemented with multi-enzyme on growth performance and physiological characteristics of broilers. a total number of 375 one day old ross-308 broiler chickens were allocated randomly to 3 treatments with 5 replicates at 2 rearing period (including 1 to 21 and 22 to 42 days of age) using a crd statistical...

Combining international business (IB) research with the knowledge based view, this paper examines factors affecting the export propensity and export performance of high-technology SMEs in an emerging economy. Using a unique, hand-collected dataset of 711 SMEs from Zhongguancun Science Park in China, it argues that export orientation and performance depend not only on the development of capabili...

In this work, we consider the problem of optimizing the retrieval of containers from a bay in a fixed sequence. When there are other containers on top of the container to be retrieved, there may be alternative locations for those containers to be relocated. So it is essential to develop algorithms that find “good” locations in order to minimize the total time of the retrieval. In the literature...

A number of studies have accounted the integral role of foreign/second language learning and learner strategy use. However, a few of these studies have considered the relationships between strategic competence and its use and foreign language performance (FLP). This study applied structural equation modeling to deeply investigate the relationships between test takers’ strategy use and their per...
