Abstract:
Problem. On the present time both Lithuania and EU market dominate pigs and cattle breeding. Consumer researches shows, that growing demand on high digestibility and nutrient, quick prepare animal products. On this way duck meat is very valuable product. Problem is that now dominate small farms, where traditionally growing few local, not very productive ducks. Like there is no real local market, so there is no well develop duck breeding. The subject of research. After good analyses of duck breeding and risk factors, to take measures of duck business development in Lithuania. Tasks: To estimate different duck species peculiarity and analyse duck meat quality depend to market demand; To estimate duck breeding technology and use in Lithuania farms; To estimate risk and possibility of duck business in Lithuania. Results. Consumer researches shows, that people prefer not fat, fragile, muscular duck meat. These features satisfy meat duck mularde females. From a technological viewpoint duck is insensitive to temperature, moisture, feed changes, so it’s possible to grow them both intensive and extensive farms. Technological, zoohigienic and economic duck growing research showed that the most promising duck breeding is like part business – on the summer time use empty animal husbandry buildings. At best is to grow heterozic hybrids. These precondition enable in Lithuania to create small duck farms, which sells fresh meat straight from the farm and secure flexible sells and... [to full text]

Abstract:
Nest predation is a major factor impacting duck production and recruitment on breeding areas in North America. I surveyed waterfowl managers employed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and U.S. state wildlife agencies to determine their beliefs about nest predation and its management. Over 64% of respondents believed that rates of nest success on their management units averaged <30% between 1996-2000. Managers believed habitat management and direct predator control were the most effective techniques to reduce nest predation. The construction of predator exclosures around nesting habitat also has been recommended to reduce nest predation. Between 1999-2001, I evaluated the effectiveness of 4 predator exclosures to enhance duck nest success at Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge, Utah. During this period, rates of nest success in the exclosures were slightly higher than that within control plots, but still <15%. Although published guidelines commonly recommended predator fences ≤ 117 cm in height, I observed red foxes jump the 114-cm-high fences. Additional research is needed to identify effective predator fence designs. Wildlife managers have argued that periodic disturbance of vegetation should be a component of management on waterfowl breeding areas. Although many techniques are available to manipulate vegetation, grazing by domestic livestock has been controversial. Some researchers have reported that livestock grazing is detrimental to nesting ducks whereas others have argued that it can be beneficial. I evaluated the impact of a short-duration, high-intensity winter livestock grazing program on duck nesting at Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge. Following a winter grazing treatment, I measured visual obstruction on both grazed and ungrazed plots during the spring nesting season. Although visual obstruction readings on grazed plots were lower than those on rested sites early in the nesting season, those differences diminished as the season progressed. Winter grazing may impact early-nesting ducks like mallards (Anas platyrhynchos), but not late-nesting species like cinnamon teal (Anas cyanoptera) and gadwall (Anas strepera). In designing grazing programs to manage nesting cover, managers should consider their waterfowl production goals, the composition of breeding duck populations, type of grazing system, and climatic conditions.

Abstract:
Dissertação do Mestrado em Engenharia Eletrotécnica e de Computadores - Ramo de Energias Renováveis e Sistemas de Potência<br>A redução das emissões de CO2 na atmosfera, requer apostas em soluções sustentáveis, sendo uma delas a integração de energias renováveis variáveis (ERV) na rede. A transição para sistemas em que existe forte penetração de ERV, exige o aumento de flexibilidade do sistema elétrico. Um dos requisitos para garantir essa flexibilidade, é o armazenamento de energia. O armazenamento de energia permite mitigar vários problemas na rede, entre eles, a duck curve. Foi realizado o estudo sobre o impacto do armazenamento no diagrama de carga da subestação São João, em Coimbra, na presença de geração fotovoltaica e eólica. Os resultados obtidos permitiram concluir que o armazenamento de energia, é um requisito necessário para que o sistema elétrico tenha flexibilidade, após a penetração da geração fotovoltaica distribuída. O armazenamento através da geração eólica na rede, pode auxiliar na redução da rampa do consumo durante o final do dia. Com este método, foi possível diminuir o efeito duck curve, através do peak shaving. A maioria da energia eólica armazenada foi durante o dia, em que existe consumo reduzido na rede, devido à massiva geração fotovoltaica. Quanto maior for a geração eólica, nos períodos de baixo consumo, maior é a necessidade do armazenamento.<br>The reduction of carbon pollutions requires betting on sustainable solutions, one of them is the integration of variable renewable energies (VRE) in the grid. The transition to systems where there is a higher penetration of VRE, requires increased power system flexibility. One of the requirements to ensure this flexibility is energy storage. Energy storage enables mitigate several problems on the grid, including the duck curve. The study of the impact of storage on the load diagram of the São João substation, in Coimbra, in the presence of photovoltaic and wind production was carried out. The results obtained allowed to conclude that the storage of energy, is a necessary requirement for the electrical system to have flexibility, after integration of distributed photovoltaic production. Wind production and storage system can help reduce the ramp consumption during the end of the day, where there is no photovoltaic production. It was possible to decrease the effect caused by duck curve, through peak shaving. Most of the wind energy stored was during the day, when the consumption in the grid is low, due massive photovoltaic production. Increased wind production requires increased storage capacity.

Abstract:
Ba&scaron;tenska jagoda (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.), poznata po svom delikatnom mirisu, ukusu i bogastvu u vitaminima i mineralima, gaji se u svim regionima sveta. Jagode, kao voće sa visokom proizvodnom i upotrebnom vredno&scaron;ću, zahtevaju visoka ulaganja rada i metrijala po jedinici povr&scaron;ine. Imajući ovo u vidu, jagoda zahteva posebnu pažnju u svim etapama proizvodnje (gajenja) tj. od zasnivanja jagodnjaka do berbe i prodaje. Cilj ovog istraživanja je, utvrđivanje investicione vrednosti zasnivanja i ostvarenih ekonomskih efekata koji se postižu u proizvodnji jagode karatkog i neutralnog dana u uslovima jugo-zapadnog Ontarija u Kanadi. Najveća proizvodnja u svetu se ostvaruje u severnoj hemisferi (90,5%). Vodeće zemlje po proizvodnji jagode su: SAD, &Scaron;panija, Japan i Republika Koreja. Ove četiri zemlje čine 47,2% od ukupne svetske proizvodnje. Najveće povećanje kapaciteta jagode postignuto je u južnoj hemisferi. Za prikupljanje podataka o tehnologiji gajenja i investicionoj vrednosti ulaganja u proizvodnji jagode, kori&scaron;ćena je metoda anketiranja. U anketi je učestvovalo 19. proizvođača jagoda kratkog i 9. neutralnog dana u toku 2011. i 2012. godine. Upitnikom su prikupljeni podaci o tehnologije gajenja jagode po radnim operacijama, upotrebi materijala, ma&scaron;ina i radne snageTakođe, evidentirane su i strane usluge, ostvareni prosečni prinosi, prodajni kanali i procenat uče&scaron;ća u ukupnoj prodaji i postignuta prosečna cena.Na osnovu prikupljenih podataka izračunati su tro&scaron;kovi zasnivanja jagodnjaka, redovne nege i brbe u prvoj i drugoj godini i ostvareni profit za obe grupe jagode. Jagode kratkog dana se isključivo gaje u redovima na otvorenom, a jagode neutralnog dana na bankovima obloženim belom polietilenskom folijom i instaliranim kap-po-kap sistemom za navodnjavanje. Najveći procenat (70%) jagode kratkog dana se prodaje direktno kupcima na gazdinstvu ili lokalnim pijacama, a 55% jagode neutralnog dana se prodaje kanalima veleprodaje. U proseku, proizvođači jagode kratkog dana su postigli profit $CAD 22.300/ha (29,10% od ukupnog prihoda), a proizvođači jagode neutralnog dana $CAD 37.962/ha (29,50% od ukupnog prihoda). Znači, proizvodnja obe grupe jagoda je veoma profitabilna, i postoji realna osnova za dalje povećanje profita.<br>The cultivated strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.), known for its delicate fragrance, flavour, and rich vitamin and mineral content, can be grown in most arable regions of the globe. Strawberry production, like many high-value crops, is resource and labour-intensive. Therefore, attention to detail is required at all stages of strawberry production, from establishment to harvest and marketing. The objective of this study was to determn the cost of strawberry establishment and achived economic effects of short-day and day-neutral strawberry production in south-western Ontario, Canada. The most of the production is located in the northern hemisphere (90.5%). The leading strawberry producing nations are USA, Spain, Japan and Republic of Korea. These four countries counted for 47.2% of all world&rsquo;s strawberry production. The largest increase in strawberry production capacity was recorded in the southern hemisphere. For data collection on procedure for growing a crop of strawberries and investment in strawberry production a survey technique was used. In survey participated 19 short-day and 9 day-neutral strawberry growers and was conducted in 2011 and 2012. The survey recorded strawberry production procedures, materials, equipment and labour use. Also, growers reported externalMr Dragan M. Galić - Doktorska disertacijaviiservices used, achieved yields, marketing channels of sale, percent of each channel and achieved average sale prices. Based on collected information the cost of establishment, regular care, harvest in first and second year and total income were calculated for both groups of strawberries. Short-day strawberries are grown on matted-rows, while day-neutral on raised beds on white plastic with trickle irrigation installed. Most (70%) of the short-day crop was sold via direct sale (&ldquo;U-pick&rdquo;, ready-picked and farmers&rsquo; market), while 55% of day-neutral strawberries were sold in wholesale. On average, growers of short-day strawberries generated a profit of 22,300 $CAD/ha (29.10% of total income), and growers of day-neutral strawberries 37,962 $CAD/ha (29.50% of total income). Based on this study, both groups of strawberries in Ontario are highly profitable and with great potential for frofit increase.
