High densities in bunker silos minimize losses and reduce storage costs; however, the guidelines to attain high densities are based on relatively little research. The objective of this study was to determine those practices or factors most correlated with bunker silo density. Density was measured in 175 bunker silos across Wisconsin using core samples collected at chest height (1.13 m, 3.70 ft,...

the effect of different storage temperatures on senescence and postharvest performance in cut scapes of three iris species (iris germanica, iris reticulata and iris kashmiriana) was studied with the aim to develop a cost-effective storage protocol so as to bring out the transportation of these cut flowers. the scapes were subjected to two different storage treatments-dry storage and wet storage...

the percentage of fat in liver wet and dry matter, liver moist and dry matter and their relationship were investigated based on species, sex and age of 384 slaughtered animals including 114 cows, 100 buffaloes, 147 sheep and 23 goats from 2008 to 2010 in urmia, iran. mean percentage of fat in liver wet and dry matter, and liver dry matter in cows were 3.6%, 1.1%, 29.7%, buffaloes were 5.3%, 1.5...

dry matter remobilization, grain filling rate and duration has principle role on rice grain yield, and environment condition directly affect on them. for study the influence of climate factors a factorial field experiment in randomized complete blocks design with three replications conducted at haraz extention and technology development centre in spring 2013. treatments included rice cultivars ...

To assessment effect of concentration and times of disinfection wheat seeds, infected by Aspergillus fungus a research was conducted based on Factorial experiment according randomized complete block design with four replications. The factors included four levels of sodium hypochlorite (2, 4, 6, and 8%) and four times of seed disinfection (2, 5, 7, and 10 minutes). Result of analysis of variance...
