Abstract:

A study was conducted to know the problems and prospects fish nursery operators in Jessore district. A total of 50 nursery operators (Jessore sadar, Jikhorgasha and Avynagor) were interviewed using a structured questionnaire during March-May 2016. The objective of the survey was to study different aspects on pond area, fingerling rearing status, nursery layer, number of employees, sources of fingerlings, survival rate, fingerlings prices, market system, capital sources, fingerling production, prospects and problems for nursery operators. In survey areas, most of the nursery operators were cont

Marketing techniques were valuable in the development of an extension and research support program for the diverse Georgia nursery industry. The support program was developed in three stages: 1) needs assessment and development of industry alliances, 2) initiation of a research program based on priority needs, and 3) technology transfer. The needs assessment was facilitated by the development of a distribution channel map for the Georgia landscape/nursery industry. The industry alliances developed early in the project facilitated conduct of the research program and technology transfer. The res

Abstract:

Abstract Poplars (Populus L.) are among the most versatile of trees, but many poplar hybrids have often failed to grow as advertised because of their high susceptibility to several diseases. Chemical and cultural controls have been developed that can minimize disease incidence in hybird poplars, but planting resistant clones is believed to be the best long-term management strategy. Nursery operators need to produce these disease resistant clones in order to increase market acceptability.

Quickly controlling the parameters related to the quality of substrate filling presents a significant problem, as it requires the ongoing correction of the filling module settings (e.g., extending the vibration time or changing the vibration

Abstract:

Water management is a very significant practice, as it influences the successful growth of many crops. In Nigeria, Cashew farmers use different cashew nuts and varying watering rate for their nursery operations. These necessitates this study, to enhanced cashew morphological growth and to checkmate water management. The experiment laid in 4 x 10 x 3 factorial design on a randomized complete block of three replications, examines medium, large cashew nut biotypes, and 200ml, 300ml watering rates applied fortnightly. Monthly harvest done from each treatment to monitor seedlings development. Data

Abstract:

Optimizing growing conditions and, thereby, plant growth reduces the susceptibility of plants to many disease and insect pest problems. Educating lawn or landscape management professionals and homeowners about plant health management reduces the need for chemical intervention. Pesticides combined with N and P fertilizers contribute to water pollution problems in urban areas; thus, it is important to manage the amount, timing, and placement of chemicals and fertilizers. To educate consumers applying pesticides and fertilizers in residential gardens, we must educate the sales representatives and

Abstract:

Rain drop momentum, based on the height from which it falls, is an important factor in drop penetration of plant canopy. This may explain why nursery operators report that substrates appear wetter from rain than from an equivalent amount of water applied with overhead irrigation. We investigated the influence of irrigation nozzle height on amount of water captured by Rhododendron sp. `Formosa' grown in 10-liter containers. A Wobbler® (#8, 7.6 liters·min–1) irrigation nozzle was positioned 1.2, 2.4, 3.6, 4.8, or 6.0 m above grade. Plants were placed in a circle 3.6 m from the riser base for the

The Kutaraja Ocean Fishing Port (PPS Kutaraja) is one of the largest fish landing sites in Banda Aceh, playing a significant role in shark fisheries, particularly for thresher sharks (Alopias pelagicus). This study aims to describe the thresher shark fishery at PPS Kutaraja, assess the status of its utilization, and provide recommendations for sustainable management. The research was conducted through direct observations, interviews with fishermen and fishery business operators, and secondary data analysis. The results indicate that thresher sharks are primarily caught as bycatch using purse s

Maintaining annual color throughout the long summer season in warm temperate regions has become an interest to landscapers and nursery operators. Some colorscaping companies have begun implementing a second summer planting season. There is little information available concerning suitable cultivars and species of bedding plants for establishment in late summer. This study examined plant establishment in two container sizes and three dates of transplanting to determine late season establishment in Starkville, Miss. (33°27' latitude, 88°49' longitude).

Characterizing the fish farmers enabled the formulation of appropriate adaptation interventions that may serve as inputs for management strategies and rehabilitation efforts to address water pollution. In doing so, sustainable fish production could be assured. Focus group discussions, key informant interviews, and a survey were conducted. Th

Residual chipping material, also called clean chip residual (CCR), has potential use as a growth substrate in the nursery and greenhouse horticultural industries. A survey was conducted in the southeastern United States among companies conducting harvesting operations on pine (Pinus sp.) plantations for the production of pulpwood in the forest industry. Fourteen operators in four states (Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida) were visited to evaluate the on-site status of residual material. Sample analysis of CCR revealed that it was composed of ≈37.7% wood (range, 14.2% to 50.5%), 36.6% bark

Abstract Hand-cranked rotary spreaders are used to apply granular pesticides to container crops. Pattern was affected by several variables that are controlled by the operator. A sensitivity study was conducted with a typical hand-cranked spreader to determine which operator variables most affected the distribution pattern. Impeller height had little effect. Pattern slide setting had an important effect. Reducing cranking speed affected the pattern; increasing cranking speed did not.

Also, since feed intake is influenced by the learning abilities of the animal, any negative post-ingestive experiences with digestion may be linked to the feed and decrease feed intake. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of the supplementation of different feed flavours for piglets during nursery phase on their performance and analyze the correlation between nursery performance and grower/ finisher performanc
