Finding a good research topic is very crucial for a researcher, especially a new researcher, such as PhD student. Generally, a PhD student’s research interest in the beginning is not clear, and he have to spend much time reading a lot of research literatures, step by step, his research preference will become clearer and clearer, and easier to find an advanced research topic in which he is reall...

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of rearing systems on reproductive performance of turkey (Meleagris gallopavo). A total of 180 Beltsville Small White and Board Breasted Bronze turkeys were taken for the study and reared under three different rearing system viz. intensive system (full confinement), semi-intensive system (partial confinement and partial day scavenging) and...

We consider a committee problem in which efficient information aggregation is hindered by differences in preferences. Sufficiently large delays could foster information aggregation but would require commitment. In a dynamic delay mechanism with limited commitment, successive rounds of decision-making are punctuated by delays that are uniformly bounded from above. Any optimal sequence of delays ...

This paper is a partial review of the literature on ‘social preferences’. There are empirical findings that convincingly demonstrate the existence of social preferences, but there are also studies that indicate their fragility. So how robust are social preferences, and how exactly are they context dependent? One of the most promising insights from the literature, in my view, is an equilibrium e...

durum wheat due to its quality is an important crop in feeding and economics. saji is a newly released durum wheat cultivar with a mean yield of 2824 kgha-1 which was higher than the two durum wheat (zardak) and bread wheat (sardari) check cultivars in different yield traits conducted during 2000-2008 cropping seasons in iran. its grain yield was 23% and 11% higher than those of zardak and sard...
