Abstract:
Contract farming is generally practiced by food processing firms wherein the risk is allocated between the company and its growers. Its key aspect is risk sharing and risk reduction. Hence we made an attempt to know the perception of acid lime growers and ascertain the prospects of contract farming. The sample comprised of 200 acid lime growers in 3 districts of Maharashtra, using random walk sampling technique. The data collected through a structured interview schedule were analyzed using the t-test of significance of difference between sample and population means. The study revealed significant relationship between occupation (t=1.596) and perceived acceptability of contract farming in citrus at 5 per cent level of significance. Similar relationship prevailed between annual income from acid lime (t=0.391) and perceived acceptability of contract farming in citrus. Guaranteed and fixed pricing structures was perceived to be the main advantage of contract farming which attracted attention of the maximum respondents (RBQ=175). As regarding risk factors, inadequate water for irrigation ranked the topmost factor followed by price uncertainty. In case of issues governing profitability, unfair market price has been ranked as the number one issue (RBQ=181.33) followed by over production and less market price (RBQ=178.33) to the produce. It is expected that this study will help policy makers to develop more appropriate marketing policies in India.

Abstract:
AbstractOrganic farming systems differ fundamentally from conventional ones in their primary focus on management practices that promote and enhance ecological harmony. Organic farmers also tend to have a different socioeconomic profile. In this study, we summarize average socioeconomic characteristics and production practices of a national sample of about 300 certified organic vegetable growers from 14 states and compare them to a large sample of about 6,900 conventional vegetable growers. We also examine the specific materials used by organic growers for pest and nutrient management.Organic vegetable growers tend to be younger, more educated, less experienced in farming, and less likely to have grown up on a farm than conventional vegetable growers, and tend to operate smaller farms. Over three-quarters of the organic vegetable growers surveyed have small operations (less than 10 acres of vegetables), and they are much younger and work fewer days in off-farm jobs than conventional small growers. In contrast to conventional marketing practices, nearly half the surveyed organic growers, and the majority of small ones, market their vegetables directly to consumers through farmers' markets and other direct marketing channels.The organic growers rely primarily on traditional organic processes such as green manuring (legumes), animal manuring, composting, and crop rotation to supply crop nutrients, and on cultural and biological tools, including pest-resistant plant varieties, water management techniques, adjustment of planting and harvesting dates, and beneficial organisms, for pest management. Animal meal, fish products, and lime are their most frequently reported supplemental nutrient sources (14, 20 and 28%, respectively, reported using these materials), and Pyrellin EC and petroleum-based soaps were the most frequently reported supplemental pest management materials (used by 6 and 8%, respectively). The pest and nutrient materials used by the organic growers are generally consistent with current guidelines of major certification organizations that provide services to organic growers, and there is high consistency among those guidelines and national recommendations for most of these materials.

Abstract:
<p>Precision agriculture (PA) is growing considerably in Brazil. However, there is a lack of information regarding to PA adoption and use in the country. This study sought to: (i) investigate the perception of growers and service dealership about PA technologies; (ii) identify constraints to PA adoption; (iii) obtain information that might be useful to motivate producers and agronomists to use PA technologies in the crop production systems. A web-based survey approach method was used to collect data from farmers and services dealership involved with PA in several crop production regions of Brazil. We found that the growth of PA was linked to the agronomic and economic gains observed in the field; however, in some situations, the producers still can not measure the real PA impact in producer system. Economic aspects coupled with the difficulty to use of software and equipment proportioned by the lack of technical training of field teams, may be the main factors limiting the PA expansion in many producing regions of Brazil. Precision agriculture work carried out by dealership in Brazil is quite recent. The most services offered is gridding soil sampling, field mapping for lime and fertilizer application at variable rate. Many producers already have PA equipment loaded on their machines, but little explored, also restricting to fertilizers and lime application. Looking at the currently existing technologies and services offered by dealership, the PA use in Brazil could be better exploited, and therefore, a more rational use of non-renewable resources.</p>

Abstract:
Abstract Limes as a fruit crop are of great economic importance, key to Asian and South American cuisines and cultivated in nearly all tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Demand for limes is increasing, driven by World Health Organization recommendations. Pests and pathogens have significantly reduced global productivity, while changes in agronomic techniques aim to alleviate this stress. We present here a holistic examination of the major biotic (pests and pathogens) and abiotic (environment and socioeconomic) factors that presently limit global production of lime. The major producers of limes are India, China and Mexico, while loss of lime production in the United States from 2006 has led many countries in the Western Hemisphere (Mexico, Costa Rica and Brazil) to export primarily to the USA. The most widespread invertebrate pests of lime are Toxoptera citricida and Scirtothrips citri. Another insect, Diaphorina citri, vectors both Huanglongbing (HLB) and Witches Broom of Lime, which are particularly destructive diseases. Developing agronomic techniques focus on production of resistant and pathogen-free planting materials and control of insect vectors. HLB infects citrus in nearly all growing regions, and has been particularly devastating in Asian citrus. Meanwhile, Citrus tristeza virus has infected over 100 million citrus trees, mainly in the Americas and Mediterranean. Currently, Witches Broom Disease of Lime is localised to the Middle East, but recently it has been detected in South America. The range of its vectors (D. citri and Hishimonus phycitis) further raises concerns about the potential spread of this disease. Abiotic threats to lime production are also a significant concern; key areas of lime production such as Mexico, India and the Middle East suffer from increasing water stress and high soil salinity, which combined with invasive pests and pathogens, may eliminate lime production in these areas. To ensure future security in lime production, policy makers, researchers and growers will need to examine the potential of more resistant lime cultivars and establish novel areas of cultivation.

Abstract:
Previous research in our laboratory provided evidence that hydrogen cyanamide (HC) applied to grapevines (Vitis vinifera) to stimulate budbreak resulted in ethylene production, which, in addition to HC drift at application, caused abscission of leaves in neighboring `Eureka' lemon [Citrus limon (L.) Burm. F.] orchards. Foliar-applied hydrated lime [Ca(OH)2] at 140 kg per 2337 to 2807 L·ha-1 to commercial `Thompson Seedless', `Perlette', `Red Flame', or `Princess' vineyards 2–48 h after HC treatment reduced leaf abscission from 2-year-old'Eureka' lemon trees placed inside the vineyards, with no negative effects on budbreak or yield of any grape cultivar. Hydrated lime is an effective inexpensive tool that grape growers can use to protect neighboring lemon orchards.

Abstract:
Durante las décadas de 1950 y 1960, varias comunidades, comoAcos y Huayopampa (valle del Chancay, Huaral), cambiaron susistema productivo de subsistencia por la fruticultura, más rentableeconómicamente. Esto no fue ajeno a Putinza, comunidad fruticultoraobjeto de la investigación. Alrededor de 1955 se orientaal cultivo de frutales, deja de lado el de panllevar, reemplaza elmulticultivo por el monocultivo y se articula a los mercados de lasciudades de Cañete y Lima.La presente investigación, que combina el trabajo de campo, unavisión diacrónica y sincrónica y los aportes de los estudios deeconomía campesina, tiene como objetivo explicar los factores queposibilitaron la articulación de Putinza a los mercados urbanos, ainicios de la década de 1960. Hemos encontrado que una ventajaecológica, una actitud abierta al cambio, la corta distancia geográfica,el uso de infraestructura vial y una situación favorableen el mercado urbano en cuanto a precios y creciente demanda deproductos frutícolas fueron factores que intervinieron en la articulaciónde los campesinos de Putinza a los mercados de las ciudadesde Cañete y Lima.
During the decades of the 1950’s and 1960’s, several communitiesof Peru’s central coastal area, well-known examples being Acos andHuayopampa (Chancay Valley, Huaral), converted from subsistenceproduction systems to fruit growing, economically more profitable.This occurred in Putinza, the community discussed in this paper.Around 1955 it shifted to cultivating fruit and replaced multicroppingwith monoculture, articulated to the urban markets of Cañete andLima. This research, which combines field work with a diachronicand synchronic vision and draws on comparative studies of peasanteconomies, seeks to explain the factors that facilitated this articulationin the early 1960’s. Among the factors that influenced thisprocess are the ecological advantages the community enjoyed, itsopenness to change, its relative closeness to large urban centers,the existence of roads and infrastructure, and market advantages interms of prices and the growing consumer demand for fruit.

Abstract:
The main focus of this work is the relationship between person and object. My initial hypothesis was that people are “creators of meaning”. It is one of our basic cognitive functions. We all need an understandable motivation to comprehend, consider and experience the everyday-life environment around us. We have all experienced a special connection with items that we own. This is also true for the subject of my analysis: luminaries. Light is the main protagonist of our life. Besides the obvious role in making us see the world around us, it has a major impact on modifying our feelings. Following deep literature research, I proposed to a selected group of volunteers a questionnaire to answer a concise but complex question: why we consider a special object that we care about. Despite this topic has been broadly analyzed in the field, it is my opinion that there is a lack of understanding about the influence that objects have on attachment bonds.  The purpose of my analysis was to understand what would make a person holding on to a lamp for all of his/her life and maybe giving it as an heirloom further on in the family. A variety of aspects related to the concept of bonding to a specific object have been identified: time, value to the person, love and care, irreplaceability, person-object interactions, an extension of self-identity, and emotions. In general, as a conclusion from my survey, I have identified three main aspects important for the person-luminaire bond:- the features of the person itself - the characteristic of a lamp in its duality - the relation bond between the two In general, people are focusing more broadly on the effect and the atmosphere created by the luminaire in the house and I can conclude that the connection is created through an important association between the psychological momentum and the home environment where they are immersed into. I finally proposed a guideline applicable to future design projects and to define the most important characteristics that an object should have to bond with a person for life.In future perspectives, an obvious implication would be to rethink our approach to design and drive professionals towards customer-oriented needs and expectations to extend the life cycle of products.

Obesity is a well-known risk factor for breast cancer. Mechanisms linking obesity with breast cancer risk might through three possible pathways, including the insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) axis, estrogen exposure, and adipokines. It has been noted that leptin stimulates estrogen synthesis by upregulation of aromatase activity and activates proliferation and cell survival; while, adiponectin inhibits proliferation in mammary epithelial cells. The imbalance of adiponectin and leptin activities could reduce the insulin sensitivity of peripheral tissues and induce insulin resistance. Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is a mitogen for mammary epithelial cells. In the obesity and insulin resistance status, increased bioavailability of IGF-I and the crosstalk between IGF-I and estrogen could induce estrogen receptor expression and progress the cell cycle from G1 to S phase. Taken together, these potential mechanisms may contribute to breast carcinogenesis. Therefor, the present study using hospital -based case-control study design aimed to evaluate the potential associations between anthropometric measures, circulating plasma levels of adiponectin, leptin, and IGF-I and breast cancer risk. In particular, the current study assessed the potential mechanisms for obesity-related breast carcinogenesis between premenopausal and postmenopausal women. The present hospital-based case-control study was conducted at Tri-Service General Hospital, Taipei from 2004 to 2006, with a total of 297 pathologically confirmed incidence breast cancers and age, date of enrollment, and fasting status-matched controls (n=593). Questionnaire information, anthropometric measures, and blood specimens were taken before treatment from cases and matched controls. Plasma levels of adiponectin, leptin, and IGF-I were measured by RIA and IRMA. Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for assessing associations. Overall, study results showed that a negative association between plasma adiponectin levels and breast cancer risk was observed, especially in postmenopausal breast cancer, while a positive association between plasma leptin concentrations and breast cancer was demonstrated in postmenopausal women. More interestingly, elevated IGF-I concentrations in conjunction with prolonged interval of critical period of estrogen exposure, as defined by the duration between age at menarche and age at first full-term pregnancy, were associated with significantly increased risk of breast cancer, especially in ER(+) breast cancers. In conclusion, circulating levels of adiponectin, leptin, and IGF-I may have etiologic roles in breast carcinogenesis, independent of obesity effects. In particular, IGF-I may cross-talk with estrogens to increase premenopausal breast cancer risk, while central obesity and adipokines may contribute to breast cancer risk among postmenopausal women.

Abstract:
Commercial pig production makes use of pigs produced by breeding companies through deliberate breeding plans and selection strategies. This leads to ongoing improvement in growth performance and efficiency of pigs. In order to take full advantage of these genetic improvements the environmental management and nutrition should meet the requirements of the improved pig genotypes. The objective of this study was to determine the growth performances and carcass characteristics of entire male grower – finisher pigs from a specific boar subjected to different feed level allocations and housing systems under South African circumstances. The terminal sire used to produce this male offspring was bred by Topigs Norsvin South Africa and exhibited superior growth performance. This boar achieved an average test gain of 1.740 kg per day. The pigs were randomly allocated to a feeding treatment from an age of 15 weeks. They were either fed on an ad libitum basis or a daily controlled amount. This controlled amount of feed was calculated to match their growth potential to produce optimal growth. Furthermore the animals were randomly allocated to one of the two housing systems. The feeding treatments were tested under individual and group housing systems. Controlled feeding led to significantly lower growth rates. This can be seen in the significantly (P< 0.01) higher average daily gains (ADG) and 21 week empty bodyweights. The difference in growth rates was due to the difference in nutrient intakes. A strong linear relationship was found between the available lysine and metabolisable energy intake and the ADG achieved. The efficiency with which growth took place was significantly (P< 0.01) higher under the controlled feeding treatment in the individual housing system. The feeding treatment applied had no significant effect on the feed efficiency in the group housing system. The difference in efficiency between the two feeding treatments was ascribed to the difference in adipose tissue deposition. A significantly (P< 0.01) lower P2 backfat thickness was recorded under the controlled feeding treatment. Carcass parameters were significantly affected by the feeding treatments. Control fed pigs produced carcasses with significantly (P< 0.01) higher lean meat percentage and significantly (P< 0.01) lower fat percentage, warm carcass mass, cold carcass mass and carcass compactness. The housing system in which pigs were kept, significantly affected their feed intakes when ad libitum feeding was applied. The lower (P< 0.01) feed intakes achieved in the group housing system led to the difference between the feeding treatments being smaller than that of the individual housing system. This explains why the difference in performance between feeding treatments in the group housing system was smaller than in the individual housing system. Growth rates and empty bodyweights were only affected when the pigs were fed ad libitum. This is demonstrated in the higher (P< 0.01) ADGs and empty body weights achieved in the individual housing system. Individual housing led to significantly higher P2 backfat thickness levels (P< 0.01) throughout the experiment when data from the two feeding treatments were pooled. Pigs exposed to the group housing system produced lighter carcasses than those kept in the individual housing system. In conclusion the offspring exhibited a higher growth rate and higher slaughter weight when fed on an ad libitum basis. Ad libitum feeding led to heavier and leaner carcasses and a higher income in the individual housing system. Although ad libitum feeding led to a higher growth rate and heavier carcasses in group housing no significant difference was found in the net income. When the offspring was tested in the individual housing system, controlled feeding led to a slower but more efficient growth than achieved with an ad libitum feeding regime. Feeding regime had no effect on the efficiency of growth of pigs in the group housing system. The level of feed allowance in commercial situations should match the growth potential of the pigs being used. Furthermore the best feed allowance should be calculated by taking into account effects on growth rate, feed efficiency and carcass composition. Based on these the best economical level should be determined and accurately applied.

This essay begins with the awareness of my repeating lost in relationships, and tries to figure out what happened to myself. Through self-narrative, I genuinely face different difficulties in relationships. The process of understanding myself (Zhong), gradually leads me towards understanding others’ stories (Shu). Being aware of the contradictions and the breaks in my life and others makes me face my life experiences genuinely and also use narrative as an approach in counseling to inspire the beauty of oneself and others. In my early childhood memories, I figure out there is a metaphoric symbol which represents my life experiences, and found out that within every break lies the harmony of Yin and Yang in my life. Through this understanding and awareness, I look back in every story and discover that this kind of harmony also lies in everyone. With this understanding, it manifests the basic and common nature of human being – benevolence(Ren). I anticipate myself to carry this understanding of life experiences and to continually empathy others and myself and live endless.

Abstract:
Abstract All commercial sweet cherry trees are either budded or grafted. This chapter deals with sweet cherry rootstocks. Rootstocks are used for several purposes: (i) ease for propagating and producing more trees of a superior cultivar; (ii) better adaptation to particular soil or site characteristics; and (iii) the potential improvement of production due to additional traits like precocious flowering, higher productivity, and greater or reduced scion vigor as appropriate. Unfortunately, no one rootstock can satisfy all the requirements for consistently producing high yields of large, firm fruit of premium quality. Growers are advised to consider carefully the effects of each specific scion-rootstock combination as a function of environmental and cultural practices when replanting an orchard. Selecting the proper rootstock depends not only on the management skills of the grower, but also on the scion cultivar, training system, and site climate and soil selected for the orchard. Dwarfing, semi-dwarfing and even semi-vigorous rootstocks have major economic advantages over full-size rootstocks. The development of these new, precocious rootstocks has been almost as significant to the sweet cherry industry as to the apple industry several decades ago. When compared to Mazzard, Colt and even Mahaleb, size-controlling rootstocks have allowed sweet cherry growers an opportunity to plant high density, pedestrian orchards that become profitable more quickly, are more readily protected with orchard covering systems, and promote greater labor efficiency, easier management, and a safer and more productive work environment.

Abstract:
With the repeal of Prohibition and the reemergence of a domestic beer market, Willamette Valley farmers once again caught “hop fever.” Acreage expanded to its peak level in history by 1936. This chapter explains how hop farmers became more organized and initiated the first successful hop grower organizations. These organizations achieved success in marketing controls and improving the region’s reputation. Simultaneously, Willamette Valley growers successfully expanded the celebratory nature of the hop harvest by implementing a Hop Fiesta to attract workers. The event became one of Oregon’s most important annual cultural affairs, as growers drew in thousands of harvest workers with the promise of clean camping, live music, dancing, parades, and even the crowning of a Hop Queen. Despite this success in the 1930s, however, a botanical disease, called downy mildew, had crept its way to the Pacific Coast, leaving many hop fields in ruins. By 1943, Oregon relinquished its hold as the national leader in hop production.

Abstract:
The fatigue failure in components is divided in two stages: an initiation stage that defines the number of cycles that it takes for a crack to appear in the material and a second stage that estimates the number of cycles where the crack grows until it becomes unstable. Usual fatigue life estimation procedures (in crack free components) only consider the initiation stage and assume that the crack propagation period is relatively small compared with the total life. However, in the case of severely notched geometries like threaded connections, the propagation stage can be an important part of the component fatigue life and must be evaluated. A fundamental issue in the calculation of initiation plus propagation fatigue life is the definition of the initial crack size after the initiation stage. In the present study techniques for crack initiation and crack growth are described. Also the procedure to combine the two techniques and define an initial crack size is presented. The study is based on previous work of C. Navarro, et al. [1]. Additionally, validation against experimental tests on notched specimens is provided.

Abstract:
The service life of critical aerospace components is governed by the modes of degradation and failure such as: yielding, fatigue, fracture, creep, corrosion, wear, etc. A single disc is used for over-speed and burst-speed tests to know the growths (plastic deformation). In this paper, a cyclic symmetry sector of disc model with non linear elastic-plastic material is considered. A non-linear finite element method is utilized to determine the stress and strain state of the disc under over-speed and burst-speed conditions using material stress strain curves. Permanent growths and strains obtained from the over-speed analysis are incorporated in the burst-speed Finite element Model. The original stress strain curve used in over-speed analysis is modified with plastic strain and used in burst-speed analysis of same disc. Elastic strains obtained from the over-speed and burst-speed analysis are utilized in stress strain relationship equations to calculate the permanent growths at critical locations of disc. Growths predicted from Analysis are comparable with the experimental results of disc where a maximum variation of 11% at bore and rim of disc is observed.

In ASME Turbo Expo 2012: Turbine Technical Conference and Exposition. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/gt2012-69186.

Full text
Abstract:
The unsteady behavior and three-dimensional flow structure of spike-type stall inception in an axial compressor rotor have been investigated by experimental and numerical analyses. Previous studies have revealed that the test compressor falls into a mild stall after emergence of a spike, in which multiple stall cells, each consisting of a tornado-like vortex, are rotating. However, the flow mechanism from the spike onset to the mild stall remains unexplained. The purpose of this study is to describe the flow mechanism of a spike stall inception in a compressor. In order to capture the transient phenomena of spike-type stall inception experimentally, an instantaneous casing pressure field measurement technique was developed, in which 30 pressure transducers measure an instantaneous casing pressure distribution inside the passage for one blade pitch at a rate of 25 samplings per blade passing period. This technique was applied to obtain the unsteady and transient pressure fields on the casing wall during the inception process of the spike stall. In addition, the details of the three-dimensional flow structure at the spike stall inception have been analyzed by a numerical approach using the detached-eddy simulation (DES). The instantaneous casing pressure field measurement results at the stall inception show that a low-pressure region starts traveling near the leading edge in the circumferential direction just after the spiky wave was detected in the casing wall pressure trace measured near the rotor leading edge. The DES results reveal the vortical flow structure behind the low-pressure region on the casing wall at the stall inception, showing that the low-pressure region is caused by a tornado-like separation vortex resulting from a leading-edge separation near the rotor tip. A leading-edge separation occurs near the tip at the onset of the spike stall and grows to form the tornado-like vortex connecting the blade suction surface and the casing wall. The casing-side leg of the tornado-like vortex generating the low-pressure region circumferentially moves around the leading-edge line. When the vortex grows large enough to interact with the leading edge of the next blade, the leading-edge separation begins to propagate, and then, the compressor falls into a stall with decreasing performance.

Abstract:
The interface between overlaid fluids can become unstable when the fluids are excited vertically. The instability caused by the variation in the vertical acceleration is known by the name of the Faraday waves. Ito et al. (1999) studied a combined excitation problem where the fluids were excited vertically in a stationary cylinder while the interface motion was restricted by the mobility of the fluid-fluid-wall contact line. They found that, under such circumstances, the symmetric fundamental mode grows on the interface, even for excitation amplitude and frequency falling in the stable regime of the Faraday wave instability. Furthermore, they found that the contact line exhibits stick-slip-like motion for the combination of fluids and wall material used in their experiments (water and kerosene oil in a cylinder made of acrylic resin). In this paper, we describe and discuss the fluid motions associated with the excitation of fluids and interface wave. It is shown that a unidirectional flow (macroscopic streaming) is induced below the center of the interface when it is excited vertically to produce axisymmetric wave of large amplitudes. This unidirectional, jet-like flow induces a large-scale recirculating flow which extends several cylinder diameters away from the interface, a spatial scale considerably greater than the wavelength or amplitude of the interface waves, and has a time scale much greater than the excitation interval. It is shown that the phase angle between the wave-induced fluid motion and the fluid motion associated with the viscous force along the interface plays an important role in establishing the large scale stream motion of the fluids.

Abstract:
There is a proximity rule to calculate residual fatigue life of components in nuclear power plants. It is easy to evaluate soundness of a structure member by using this rule. If a subsurface crack is located near free surface of the structure, this real subsurface crack is transformed to surface crack. The condition to transform subsurface crack to surface crack is defined by relationship between crack size and the distance from crack tip to free surface. However, many organizations proposed proximity rules which differ from each other. It is advisable to verify which rule is preferable in these rules by experiment, but it is difficult to introduce subsurface crack at an optional position. Therefore, numerical simulation is needed for this purpose. Especially, S-version FEM is very useful for as much as model of subsurface crack is independent of global structure, and crack growth is easily simulated. Both subsurface and transformed surface crack growths are simulated by S-FEM. Subsurface crack grows toward free surface. When subsurface crack tip was touched to free surface, this crack was converted into surface crack by using stress intensity factor calculated at this time. In this way, crack growth behavior from subsurface to surface flaw is represented. By comparing the crack growth rate of surface to subsurface flaw with that of surface flaw transformed by each proximity rule, proximity rules can be verified by numerical simulation. Authors had proposed the proximity rule at the ASME PVP 2013 conference [1]. However, new rule was proposed by numerical simulation only under cyclic tensile load. In addition, only two proximity rules were studied at the last conference. In this study, the number of proximity rules is increased, and this problem is simulated under other loading condition such as cyclic bending load. New proximity rule gives reasonable and conservative results in numerical simulation.

Abstract:
The effect of supplemental protease (Ronozyme ProAct) in broiler diet on the weights and percentage yields of slaughter by-products of male and female medium-growing Master Gris broiler chickens was analysed. Fattening period lasted for 63 days. Broilers were assigned to 3 experimental groups, each consisting of 100 birds. Experimental groups differed in protease levels used in their diets: control broilers (C) received complete feeds (starter, grower and finisher) without supplemental protease; chickens in the experimental group E-I were given a diet containing 0.2% protease and crude protein levels reduced by 4% compared with the control group, whereas experimental E-II broilers were fed a diet supplemented with 0.3% protease and containing crude protein levels reduced by 6% compared with C birds. The analysis of the results showed that feeding treatments had a very small effect on the weights and proportion yields of edible by-products (with difference only in the percentage yield of liver relative to live weight between C and E-I broilers, P<0.05), whereas sex was found to affect almost all slaughter by-products (except abdominal fat weight and the percentage yield of gizzard relative to live weight, P>0.05).

Abstract:
As awareness about pipeline integrity grows, so does the need for accurate and reliable inspection methods to provide operators with precise and reliable data for performing advanced integrity assessment calculation and optimizing maintenance processes. Until recently, the inspection of a pipeline for metal loss and cracks necessitated two separate inspection runs with two separate tools. This paper will introduce a range of advanced in-line inspection (ILI) tools that incorporate abilities to be used for quantitative metal loss and wall thickness as well as crack inspections. These tools, utilizing ultrasound technology, make use of a new generation of electronics and an entirely new design of the sensor carrier to enable metal loss and crack inspection surveys in a single run. The paper will explain the physical principle used, introduce the tool technology, present a case study and discuss the advantages to the pipeline operator.
