Goal. To establish the peculiarities of formation quality seeds corn hybrids, to determine optimal harvesting dates and drying methods, which can be used obtain high-quality seed material reduce energy costs for its processing. Methods. Laboratory — indicators sowing (weight 1000 seeds, germination, moisture); field study yield properties hybrids (yield dry grain); mathematical-statistical disp...

In the recent years, increasing labour cost and shortage of being major constraints to follow manual harvesting in cotton staggered manner. Further, it is very expensive farmers would like increasingly opt for mechanical harvesting. this context, suggested that research should focus reduce cultivation substantially by promoting use synchronized maturity defoliants encourage agriculture, are use...

The quantum dynamics of transport networks in the presence of noisy environments has recently received renewed attention with the discovery of long-lived coherences in different photosynthetic complexes. This experimental evidence has raised two fundamental questions: firstly, what are the mechanisms supporting long-lived coherences; and, secondly, how can we assess the possible functional role...

Aim The distribution of overmature forests in metropolitan France is poorly known, with only a few well-studied prominent sites, and has never been evaluated countrywide. Here, we modelled French forest reserves' time since the last harvesting operation—a proxy for maturity—then inferred current statistical (i.e., over 50 years without harvesting) France. Location Metropolitan Methods We used i...

Due to its indeterminate growth habit, maturation of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is affected by many environmental and cultural factors. An easy and reliable measure of its progression toward maturity that can be attained during crop development is needed for both production and research programs. As a cotton plant develops, first-position flowers progress toward the plant apex, and their re...

Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effects of harvest time and method on fruit oil characteristics ‘Ayvalık Yağlık’, a major olive cultivar in Turkey. 
 Material Methods: Early, optimum late harvests were made by hitting with wood stick (control), pneumatic beater, branch shaker conventional grove located Edremit district Balıkesir province western Harvested fruits stored...

In this work, we studied the impact of harvesting time on Fusarium mycotoxin occurrence in spring wheat and effect contamination quality these grains. The grains (Triticum aestivum L.) were collected 2016–2018 when crop had reached full maturity, 10 ± 2 days 17 3 after maturity. grain samples analyzed for infection co-contamination with mycotoxins deoxynivalenol (DON), zearalenone (ZEA), T-2 to...

the aim of this study was to determine the most suitable shaking frequency and amplitude for shake harvesting lime fruit (c. aurantifolia). a tractor mounted limb shaker with adjustable shaking frequency and amplitude, powered by the tractor power-take-off shaft was designed and developed for this study. the rotating input power was transmitted to the shaker flywheel through a multiple sheave v...
