Assessment of applied microwave power of intermittent microwave-dried carrot powders from Colour and NIRS
(2019)Applied microwave (MW) power level is an essential factor on the quality of the dried agricultural products. Even if higher MW powers result in shorter drying times, they lead to quality degradations. It is almost ... -
Assessment of production zones modelling accuracy based on satellite imaging and yield measurement of selected agriculture plot
(2019)Currently, remote sensing or yield monitor equipment offer possibilities how to estimate productivity of the agriculture field. That is why the main aim of this study is to assess how the latest satellite images from ... -
Comparison of lycopene and β-carotene content in tomatoes determined with chemical and non-destructive methods
(2019)Tomatoes are one of the most popular vegetables due of their wide use as food. Tomatoes are not only tasty fruit, but one of its benefits - high carotenoids content is well-known. Non-destructive analyses methods are ... -
The course of drying and colour changes of alfalfa under different drying conditions
(2019)One of the conditions for successful livestock breeding and efficient livestock production is to ensure quality feed. High quality feed for livestock is alfalfa, which has a very high nutritional value and its cultivation ... -
Discrete element simulation of rapeseed shear test
(2019)SuiTable equipment are required for storage and transportation of rapeseed which are developed according to rules for bulk matters. It is one of reasons where bulk matter properties are important to the design. Bulk ... -
Effect of environmental temperature during the of brooding period on growing period of pullets viscera and tibia
(2019)Poultry production in subtropical and tropical regions faces many problems, one of which is the high air temperature causing thermal stress, particularly dangerous in high-producing birds. Thus, the negative effects ... -
The effect of Minituber Weight on their Field Performance under a Northern European environment
(2019)Weight of potato minitubers as well cultivar affects field performance of minitubers. The aim of this study was to compare minitubers of four weight classes (MtC) (3 to 4.99 g, 5 to 9.99 g, 10 to 19.99 g, and > 20 g) ... -
Effect of nitrogen rate and forecrop on nitrogen use efficiency in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum)
(2019)Application of plant nutrient is one of the most important measures increasing grain yield and yield quality. Excessive application of nitrogen fertilizers leads to nitrogen leaching and it affects the quality of groundwater ... -
Effect of two housing systems on performance and longevity of dairy cows in Northern Italy
(2019)The objective of the current study was to evaluate and compare performance of dairy cows housed in compost-bedded pack barns (CBP) and free stall barns, with a focus on longevityrelated parameters. Study included 30 ... -
The environmental noise level in the rejuvenation pruning on centuries-old olive tree
(2019)In the Italian agricultural economy, olive cultivation plays a fundamental role, and this is especially true for the southern regions where almost all cultivation is spread. In Calabria, in particular, olive cultivation ... -
Estonian dairy farms’ technical efficiency and factors predicting it
(2019)Milk production is a complex process whose efficiency depends directly on the inputoutput ratio and indirectly on the decisions made at farm and animal level. Decisions made about farm hygiene, dairy cows’ milk yield, ... -
Evaluating the effects of application modes and soil types on the herbicide efficacy and crop yield of pendimethalin and clomazone on transplanted pepper (Capsicum annuum L.)
(2019)Field experiment was carried out in 2014 and 2015 in two locations Kochani and Drachevo in Republic of Macedonia to evaluate the efficacy and crop safety of pendimethalin and clomazone on transplanted pepper according ... -
An experimental investigation of performance levels in a new root crown cleaner
(2019)For the purposes of carrying out field experiments using the vertical-type cleaner with its elastic cleaning blades to remove haulm residues from the crowns of standing roots, the programme for this process and the ... -
Formation of photosynthetic and grain yield of spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) depend on varietal characteristics and plant growth regulators
(2019)The aim of the study was to determine the efficiency of the barley treatment crops with modern retrograde preparations on the background of the mineral fertilizers introduction into the photosynthetic activity of crops ... -
Measurements of wireless detectors used to monitor animal movements in livestock farms
(2019)At present, there is a great interest in monitoring and automating farm animals and livestock farming. There are many systems and methods to check the movement of animals in certain areas. One option is to use motion ... -
Methodology of the stress detemination in the tool module during the work of the agriculture machine
(2019)Machine construction is designed using by mathematical models. The frame is a fundamental part of an agricultural soil cultivation machine so that forces were transfered during transport and machine work to frame. The ... -
Model for ammonia emissions’ assessment and comparison of various dairy cattle farming systems and technologies
(2019)A dairy cattle farming is an important source of ammonia emissions, particularly in Latvia. Models using a wide range in level of detail have been developed to represent or predict these emissions. Besides, models are ... -
