olive oil is one of the oldest known vegetable oils, ranking sixth in world production. since it is extractedfrom fresh fruit and used without aging, the conditions of oil production are very important. during theextraction of virgin olive oil, the milling and malaxation steps are vital for increasing oil yield and quality.in this study, the effect of milling (single or double), temperature of ...

two different propagation procedures including aeroponics and soil systems were compared for the minitubers production in potato. the minitubers were evaluated for several quality characters. the plant materials were from three cultivars, agria, marfona and savalan. the plantlets were grown in aeroponics and soil production systems at a plant density of 100 plants per m-2 and stem length, root ...

the objective of this research was to study the effects of phenological stages on yield and quality traits in 22 populations of tall wheatgrass agropyron elongatum. a split plot design was conducted using a complete randomized block with two replications in lorestan (borujerd), iran during 2007-2008. the genotypes were cut in five maturity stages as vegetation, stem elongation, heading date, an...

Beef derived from Holstein steers is a significant source of the U.S. beef supply. The nation’s 9.1 million dairy cows in 2003 were 22% of the U.S. cow herd (NASS, 2005). Given the typical breed distribution of dairy cows, calving interval, full-term pregnancy rate, peri-natal calf death loss (NAHMS, 2002), gender distribution, dairy beef placement (80%) and survival to market (94%), it can be ...

R7 stage (one seed pod at mature color; 50% of leaves yellow) produced forage that was similar in quality to Tall forage soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars in maturity alfalfa harvested at early bloom. When soybean was groups V, VI, and VII have been developed to supply forage. Our objective was to determine the effect of harvest date and row spacing grown as an intercrop with corn, the...
