Conservation tillage is an effective sustainable production system for vegetables. No-till planters and transplanters and strip-till cultivation equipment are presently available for most vegetables. Lack of weed management tools (herbicides, cultivators, etc.) continues to be the cultural practice that limits adaptability of some vegetables to conservation tillage systems. Nitrogen management ...

Zeolites are nanoporous crystalline alumino-silicates with a rich variety of interesting properties and industrial applications. With over 140 zeolite framework topologies synthetically available—each with its own range of compositions—zeolites offer size-, shapeand electrostaticallyselective adsorption, diffusion and reaction up to remarkably high temperatures. Zeolites are widely used as petr...

A variety of clinical manifestations of mercury intoxication may be encountered depending mainly upon the mercurial involved. Inhalation of elemental mercury results in pulmonary, central nervous system (CNS) and kidney damage. The CNS damage produces a spectrum of behavioural and neurological deficits. Ingestion of inorganic mercurials may, because of their corrosive nature, produce devastatin...

The present experiment entitled, “Impact of different drying methods and desiccants on storage quality annual chrysanthemum gerbera” was carried out at the laboratory Floriculture Landscape Architecture, Department Horticulture, College Agriculture, JAU, Junagadh during year 2019-2020 to know impact gerbera. laid in completely randomized design with factorial concept two factors i.e. viz. sun s...

This paper experimentally studies the mass transfer during the dehumidification/regeneration operation using the hygroscopic material calcium chloride and calcium chloride dehydrate as desiccant. These desiccants are compared on the basis of the same operation conditions. According to the analysis of heat and mass transfer processes, the key influencing factors are relative humidity and regener...

Experiments were focused on differences in the ripening of crimson clover (Trifoliumincarnatum L.) and red (Trifolium pratense influence pre-harvest treatment with desiccants. The drying leaves, stems heads during ripening, regrowing, breakdown yield parameters including seed compared. exhibited natural faster than clover. In clover, before harvest was 80 - 100%, 50– 95%, 100 %, respectively. 2...
