dry matter remobilization, grain filling rate and duration has principle role on rice grain yield, and environment condition directly affect on them. for study the influence of climate factors a factorial field experiment in randomized complete blocks design with three replications conducted at haraz extention and technology development centre in spring 2013. treatments included rice cultivars ...

The efficiency of brown rice and germinated brown rice as a substrate for probiotic food was investigated. Lactobacillus isolated from goat milk was used for fermenting the rice medium. Brown rice (BR) obtained by dehulling the paddy, was germinated for 48 h. The dried powders of BR and Germinated BR (GBR) were compared for the growth of Lactobacillus sp. and nutritive evaluation such as carboh...

background and objectives: seed vigour is the resultant of a broad range of physiological processes which have genetic background. the study of genetic variation, play an important role in enhancing the ability of breeders in selection and breeding operation. this study aimed to evaluate rice genotypes with the physiological and morphological characteristics related to seed vigour and grouping ...

objective: the aims of this study were to determine energy efficiency and co2 use pattern of grape production in zanjan province, iran by a non-parametric method of data envelopment analysis (dea). methods: initial data were collected using a face to face questionnaire from 42 orchards in abhar city of zanjan province which is one of the most important centers of grape production in iran. the d...

the steady state effect of vertical fins is assessed on a photovoltaic/thermal solar air heater having a double pass configuration in which fins are placed in the lower channel perpendicular to the direction ofair flow. air passes through the upper channel of the air heater and before passing in the opposite direction through the lower channel. the effects of design, climatic and operating para...

recent developments in hydrogen production by thermochemical water decomposition are reported,with an emphasis on hydrogen production from non-fossil energy sources such as nuclear and solar. numerousdevelopments have been made on sulphur-iodine, copper-chlorine and other thermochemicalcycles. efforts are described to lower the temperatures required in thermochemical cycles, so as to broadenthe...

introduction: in this study, total factor productivity growth components in rough rice production are assisting by econometric approach and stochastic frontier function during 2005-2013 for several provinces (mazandaran province, guilan province, golestan province, fars province, khoozestan province). according to food and agriculture organization statics, iran is the 3rd importer and 20th expo...
