Nacrtak Extracting logs from stump to landings causes extensive damages to forest stand and soil. In this research two parcels adjacent to each other were selected in order to assess the effect of traditional and mechanized methods of logging on regeneration and soil compaction. A skid trail and a mule trail with similar longitudinal slope, skidding direction and total volume of extracted wood ...

South America is responsible for about half of the cassava world production. In the 1970's productivity of the crop on the continent was about 15 ton/ha, and dropped continuously until reaching 12 ton/ha in 2004. India's productivity of cassava increased from 10 ton/ha in the 1970's to 28 ton/ha in 2004. Brazil contributed significantly to improving cassava crops through the Instituto Agronômic...

The amount of wheat and corn produced in excess will be sold at prices of $ 170 per ton for wheat and $ 150 per ton for corn. For sugar beets there is a quota on production which is 6000 T for the farmer. Any amount of sugar beets up to the quota can be sold at $ 36 per ton, the amount in excess of the quota is limited to $ 10 per ton. We denote by w1 and w2 the amount in tons of wheat resp. co...

In this study, the Electric Spark Discharge Method (ESDM) was employed with micro-electrical discharge machining (m-EDM) to create an electric arc that melted two electrodes in deionized water (DW) and fabricated nano-Au colloids through pulse discharges with a controlled on-off duration (TON-TOFF) and a total fabrication time of 1 min. A total of six on-off settings were tested under normal ex...
