Abstract:
Laser light scattering (LLS) is an alternate method for determining soil particle size. Since the majority of information on particle size analysis has traditionally been derived from sedimentation methods, it is important to be able to draw a relationship between these two methods. Twenty four soil samples from a set of 214 samples analyzed by LLS were selected and also analyzed using sedimentation techniques. Particle size percentages were obtained in five different size ranges and then these two techniques were compared. Linear regression equations were developed that convert numbers obtain

Abstract:
The removal of terminal buds (topping) and sucker control are two practices that have an impact on yield and quality of dark tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.). Topping breaks apical dominance and encourages the growth of axillary buds (suckers). Following topping, growth regulator chemicals known as suckercides are commonly used to prevent axillary bud growth. Research has demonstrated that topping time, height, and sucker control method influence the quality and yield of the final product. Delaying topping past a critical developmental stage has been shown to reduce leaf yield. Topping height va

Abstract:
Ergovaline is produced by the endophyte Neotyphodium coenophialum (Morgan-Jones and Gams) in tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinacea (Schreb.) Dumort. = Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) and is blamed for a multitude of costly livestock disorders. Testing of pastures is common in both research and on farm situations. Since ergovaline is known to be unstable and affected by many variables, the objective of this study was to determine the effect of sample handling and storage on the stability of this compound. Homogeneous milled tall fescue sub-samples were analyzed for ergovaline concentration using HP

Abstract:
O Zn é essencial para o metabolismo de plantas, animais e do ser humano. Existe a necessidade de buscar soluções para a baixa disponibilidade de Zn, frequente em solos do Brasil e do mundo, e de melhorar o valor nutricional dos grãos de cereais com este nutriente. O tratamento de sementes pode apresentar-se como uma importante técnica para o fornecimento de Zn na cultura do milho (Zea mays L.). Este estudo foi dividido em quatro capítulos, no primeiro, objetivou-se avaliar o potencial fisiológico de sementes de milho tratadas com Zn durante o armazenamento; no segundo, avaliou-se a distribuiçã

Abstract:
Increased agricultural mechanization in the recent past and susceptibility of certain soils to degradation generate widespread concern among experts on the overall environmental sustainability of some of the current agricultural practices in Europe. A number of solutions could be adopted to better preserve soil resources, some of which are already supported by the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). Researchers demonstrated that erosion and reduction in soil organic matter are among the most acute degradation issues in Europe and that the release of crop residues on the soil surface after har
