A comparative analysis of functional traits in semi-natural grasslands under different grazing intensities
(2018)The reduction of traditional management practices is a major threat for the conservation of permanent grasslands in many European marginal areas. The ecological importance of grasslands is acknowledged by the European ... -
Model for cost calculation and sensitivity analysis of forest operations
(2018)Forest operations include logging, off-road and road transport of round wood, harvesting residues and wood chips, soil scarification and pre-commercial thinning, as well as other less conventional operations like stump ... -
Determination of the tension limit forces of a barley malt and a malt crush in correlation with a load size
(2018)This article deals with determination of selected parameters of barley malt (whole grain and crushed grain). The barley malt is besides water, hops and brewer's yeast, one of the basic ingredients necessary for the production ... -
Productivity, quality and economics of four spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars as affected by three cultivation technologies
(2018)Managing farming inputs in wheat production technologies is an issue of paramount importance to attain optimum profitable production. To examine how varying the farming inputs affects the nutrients uptake and productivity ... -
Comparative characteristics of antioxidant capacity of some forage plants of the Baltic Sea Region (a case study of the Kaliningrad Region and Estonia)
(2018)In this paper, we investigate changes in the antioxidant levels (anthocyanins, leucoanthocyanins, catechins) and the total water-soluble antioxidants capacity in forage plants in relation to their geography, i.e. proximity ... -
Analysis of gamma rays induced variability in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)
(2018)In this study, a lentil variety, Idlib-3, was subjected to 100 Gy (LD50) gamma-ray irradiation. At M2, mutant families were characterized for the most beneficial agronomic traits. High genotypic coefficient of variation, ... -
Volatile combustible release in biofuels
(2018)Plant biomass consists of varied materials. Biomass is used for different purposes, but it is most frequently burnt in modern combustion devices for heat production. The quality of solid biofuels depends on the total content ... -
Film agents as an effective means of reducing seed shattering in Festulolium
(2018)In the conditions of the forest steppe of the Central Chernozem region, methods were studied to reduce shatter losses in the pre-harvesting period for Festulolium during the period 2009–2011, applying the film forming ... -
The effect of starter cultures on the qualitative indicators of dry fermented sausages made from poultry meat
(2018)Changes in physicochemical, rheological and microbiological properties occurring throughout the ripening (on days 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28) of dry fermented sausages made from poultry meat were studied. The effect of starter ... -
The application of micro-wave treatment to reduce barley contamination
(2018)The goal of this work is to study the applicability of ultra high frequency electromagnetic field treatment for decontaminating barley grain used in brewing while preserving its technological properties. The germination ... -
Evaluation of rice by-products, incubation time, and photoperiod for solid state mass multiplication of the biocontrol agents Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae
(2018)The success of biological control of insect pests depends not only on the isolation, characterization, and pathogenicity, but also on the success of the mass production of the microbial agents. The biological control ... -
