A web-based model was used to simulate the impact of aeration on population growth of the lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.), and the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L.), in stored rough rice, Oryza sativa L., at Beaumont, TX. Simulations were run for each of 10 yr with 1 August as the start date; 31 December as the end date; beginning populations of 2.5 adults per metric ton (1000 k...

the aim of this paper is to introduce and study set- valued homomorphism on lattices and t-rough lattice with respect to a sublattice. this paper deals with t-rough set approach on the lattice theory. the result of this study contributes to, t-rough fuzzy set and approximation theory and proved in several papers. keywords: approximation space; lattice; prime ideal; rough ideal; t-rough set; set...

The majority of the rural areas in developing countries are not connected to electric grid. Rice production produces a significant amount rice husk as byproduct/waste but this waste can be used source energy for drying rough rice. aim research was evaluate performance and improve design operation fueled mixed flow grain dryer small scale farmers using validated 3-D computational fluid dynamics ...

Hydrothermal treatment of rice, called “Parboiling”, is an ancient traditional process in Asian countries. It consists soaking rough rice water and steaming it, it both reduces the level grain breakage increases head yield during milling. However, parboiling associated with some drawbacks regarding consumer preferences: loss its aroma, reduced rice-kernel whiteness increased kernel hardness. Th...

Numerous factors have been proposed in the literature as explaining the recent commodity price movements. In this paper we focus on one of the most widely discussed factors, the impact of speculative bubbles. We investigate whether commodity prices during the spike of 2007–2008 might have deviated from their intrinsic values based on market fundamentals. To do this, we use a bootstrap methodolo...

T HE effects of oven drying temperature and drying time on whole-kernel, long-grain rough rice moisture content determination were investigated for different moisture content levels ranging from approximately 9 to 22% (w.b.). The results showed that a simplified oven method can be used for rapid moisture measurement with accuracy comparable to that of a standard Association of Official Analytic...
