thin layer drying behavior of sweet lemon slice was experimentally investigated in a convective type dryer and the mathematical modeling performed, using thin layer drying models given in literature. drying experiments were conducted at inlet drying air temperatures of 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 ?c; two slice thicknesses of 3 and 6 mm, and, at one drying air velocity of 0.5 m/s with three replicatio...

the aim of the present research was to study the effect of different concentrations of rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis l.) extract, (0, 10, 12.5, 16.6, 25 and 50) mg/l added to semen extender, on sperm qualitative and quantitative parameters after freezing-thawing process of rooster sperm. 10 ross strain rooster were used. semen samples were collected, 2 times a week. after adding the samples ...

to examine the effect of mixing graminicide herbicides with liquid fertilizer in gorgan region, an experiment was conducted as factorial arranged in complete randomized block design (rcbd) with three replications at the research farm of islamic azad university of gorgan. the first factor was using topic, pumasuper and axial herbicides with the amounts of 0.8, 1, and 0.5 l/ha-1, respectively. th...

rainfall and flow rate are of the most important climatic and hydrologic parameters whose investigation and determination of their behavior are of great importance in water resources management. one of the most suitable methods available for assessment of hydro-climatological conditions in the watershed is trend analysis which is used to examine the changes of a variable during time. current st...

global concern of protection of the environment has led to researches on the effects of plants, natural extracts and organic materials to help maintain the postharvest quality of horticultural crops. throughout the present study, the effects of such natural products as: mint, thyme, savory, rosemary extracts, s-carvone, and humic acid on postharvest life of cut rose flowers, and the potential o...

in the water-limited areas, the great challenge of the agricultural sector is more production from less water that it can be achieved by increasing water productivity. a field study was conducted to compare various cultivars of wheat to water using line source sprinkler irrigation at gorgan research station in 2005-2006. the effect of variable water supply on yield and wue of six wheat cultivar...

increasing growth of population leads to increase in human activities such as agriculture and industry, which these activities increasing and irregular usage of fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides result in soil and groundwater pollution. meanwhile, vulnerability assessment can play important role in the management of polluting activities. in this research a new method has been proposed fo...

an investigation was conducted on the effects of vermicompost as an organic matter and a substitute for fertilizers during year 2007 in ferdowsi university of mashhad (fum). vermicompost was applied at five levels (0, 10, 25, 50, 100%) and phosphorus at two levels with 3 replications for each treatment, as a factorial based on completely randomized design for super strain b tomato cultivar. the...
