One ecological environment monitoring system of Litopenaeus vannamei farming has been developed in order to protect and regulate the ecological environment of Litopenaeus vannamei farming, halt and reverses the situations in the ecological environment deterioration of Litopenaeus vannamei farming and the little farming success rate. The early warning information of ecological environment degrad...

While organic farming is well established in Europe a nd USA, it is still catching up in Asian countries. The government of South Korea has implemented environmentally friendly farming that encompasses organic farming. Despite the promotion of environmentally friendly farming, it still has a low share in South Korea and partially converted farming has emerged in some districts of South Korea. H...

This paper presents an approach to select the best farming strategy considering various criteria. The goal is to help a farmer to take appropriate decision in farming. Two possible alternatives are consideredConventional farming and Organic farming. These farming types are evaluated by MCDM technique taking into account three criteria viz. Productivity, Marketing, and Health-Environment Friendl...

To date numerous results on innovation research have been published, however, the literature on innovation does not offer conclusive findings and guidelines for practice. The research and practice of innovation are fragmented and centered on specific cases. The literature does not present a unified theory of innovation. Innovation in any domain could be enhanced by principles and insights from ...

In agent based models, the agents are usually platforms (individual soldiers, tanks, helicopters, etc.), not military units. In the Sandis software, the agents can be platoon size units. As there are about 30 soldiers in a platoon, there is a need for strength distribution in simulations. The contribution of this paper is a conceptual model of the platoon level agent, the needed mathematical mo...

The aim of this study was to develop a pilot plant for the production of M. barbatus seed through artificial reproduction technology for possible use in aquaculture and repopulation of nursery areas. The study involved various phases: setup of the pilot plant, sourcing of M. barbatus specimens and their transplantation to an offshore long-line farm; production of live food (phytoplankton); sele...

Production of foreign molecules in transgenic plants is anticipated to be an alternative to already established, microbial or animal expression systems with lower production costs. This article reviews the different technologies and approaches currently used to produce economically interesting molecules in plants or plant cell cultures, to evaluate their technical feasibility and economic impli...

The use of plants for medicinal purposes dates back thousands of years but genetic engineering of plants to produce desired biopharmaceuticals is much more recent. As the demand for biopharmaceuticals is expected to increase, it would be wise to ensure that they will be available in significantly larger amounts, on a cost-effective basis. Currently, the cost of biopharmaceuticals limits their a...

The New Zealand deer industry is growing rapidly and the development of sustainable management practices for deer farming is becoming increasingly important. The main environmental issues facing the deer industry are the effects on soil and water quality, exacerba ted by the behaviour responses of deer to confinement (in particular fence pacing and wallowing). In addition, the projected increas...
