The rheological (Pasting, farinograph, and alveograph) properties of wheat flour (WF) replaced with breadfruit four (05-40%) was analyzed. Baking and sensory qualities of the resulting bread were evaluated. Differences in baking properties of loaves produced under laboratory and industrial conditions were analyzed with t-test, whereas ANOVA was used for other analyses. Peak and final viscositie...

Energy is one of the most important inputs in production. Energy usage and energy diffusion of fossil fuels in process of production cause greenhouse gases (CO2) emission and destruction of environment. According to the importance of issues like energy usage and economic growth, this paper, concerning the effects of proximity, evaluates the effects of energy usage and economic growth on emissio...

BACKGROUND In continuation of our previously interest in the saccharification of agriculture wastes by Bacillus megatherium in solid state fermentation (SSF), we wish to report an investigation and comparative evaluation among Trichoderma sp. for the saccharification of four alkali-pretreated agricultural residues and production of hydrolytic enzymes, carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase), filter pa...

rural women in pakistan, under a small holding system of farming, play a pivotal role in farming. they actively participate in a range of activities related to crop production and livestock management. rural women remain busy from dawn to dusk in various agricultural activities, including pre-harvest, post-harvest and livestock management. their participation is well dispersed but less perceive...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate effects of different levels of mineral and vitamin premixes with wheat and corn base diets on performance and egg traits of laying hens. experiment carried out as 2*5 factorial include wheat and corn base diets and 5 levels of minerals and vitamin premixes (0, 0.25, 0.35, 0.45 and 0.55 percentage) in a completely randomized design with 360 hi-line (w36)...

this experiment was conducted to quantify leaf production and senescence in wheat. the experiment was carried out at research farm of the gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources, gorgan, iran in 2005 using a randomized complete design considering sowing dates as environment. treatments were sowing date (14 december, 20 jan and 21 feb, 2005) and cultivars (aria, atrak, k...

A solid state fermentation method was used to utilize wheat straw as substrates for citric acid production by using Aspergillus niger ATCC 9142. The Plackett Burman design (PBD) of experiments was used to test the relative importance of the variables affecting production such as moisture content, age of spore, inoculum size, initial pH of substrate, methanol conce...
