Hierarchical modelling applied to agriculture: wheat planting decisions in the Pacific Northwest
This paper presents a hierarchical decision model that predicted Alturas soft white spring wheat would be the best spring wheat variety to plant in the Pacific Northwest in 2006. Profitability depends on changing market demands and competition with other crops. The challenge of wheat farming is sustaining profitability. A four level hierarchical decision model approach was selected for this ...

Stability of rice grain and whole kernel milling yield is affected by cultivar and date of planting
The objectives of this study were to evaluate rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivar stability and to characterize different planting dates for their consistency in grain yield and milling. Eight rice cultivars and seven planting dates were evaluated from 2003 to 2005 for a total of 19 yr x planting date environments. The coefficient of variation of cultivars and planting dates, a measure of relative ...

Effect of mixing, tempering and multistep thin layer drying on milling quality of parboiled paddy
Convective air drying studies were conducted on a laboratory model thin layer dryer. The parameters studied were 70-150°C drying air temperature, 0.5-2 m/s air velocity and 5-20 cm grain bed depth. The effects of mixing, tempering and multistep drying process on milling quality were evaluated. Mixing, tempering, multistep drying and control of grain temperature enhanced the milling quality while ...

Genotype x environment interactions of hybrid and varietal rice cultivars for grain yield and milling quality
The study of genotype x environment interaction is critical for accurate cultivar evaluation in large multi-environment trials. Cultivars that exhibit high levels of mean performance and stability across a wide range of environmental conditions are desirable for rice production. Pure-line varietal and hybrid rice cultivars are commercially produced in the U.S.; however, little research has been ...

Hybrid rice response to nitrogen fertilization for midsouthern united states rice production
Limited data representing the southern U.S. production area exists for N nutrition in hybrid rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of N fertilizer rates and application timings on grain and whole milled rice yield for ‘XL723’ (RiceTec, Inc., Alvin, TX) as compared with widely grown inbred rice cv. Cocodrie on clay soils and Cheniere on silt loam ...

Methyl bromide as a fumigant for International transports
Methyl bromide is a is an odourless, colourlessgas most often used as a fumigant. About 70% of methylbromide produced in the United States goes into pesticidal formulations. It has been used to fumigate agricultural commodities, grain elevators, mills, ships, clothes, furniture greenhouses and delicate works of art. Non-pesticidal uses include degreasing wool and extracting oils from nuts, seeds ...
