Once the tube is filled, a small hand-held suction pump is used to remove air bubbles from the tube. The lid of the reservoir is then retightened, sealing the lower tube. It is important to follow all of the manufacturer’s recommendations for installation and maintenance, including the use of an additive to minimize algal contamination […]

As expected, the dendrograms pruned with the ensemble of simulations that accounted for both measurement error and longitudinal consistency of the underlying behavioral pattern produced encodings that were far more granular. A total of 13 clusters were returned for the unweighted Euclidean metric, 17 for KL distance, and 14 for both the noise-penalized and the […]

In more recent work, cows may have been motivated to access limited feed bunk space on commercial dairies or to obtain prime pasture . In this study, as all animals were locked following milking to facilitate feeding treatments and health checks, cows would have had ample access silage regardless of queue position. Alternatively, Rathore suggested […]

This model-free framework can subsequently be extended to a multivariate estimator with two or more discrete variables. In the bivariate case, the distribution of one variable is compared across each encoded level of the other in order to decompose the total entropy in the joint encoding into three terms: the conditional entropy unique to the […]

Sordariomycetes enrichment may indicate other community shifts that are ultimately the cause for enhanced fruit quality. Endophytes in the Hypocreales class, which was enriched in dry farm fields, are known to increase drought resistance and decrease pest pressure in their hosts, though none of the specific species known to exhibit this behavior were enriched in […]

They show that Kenyan exporters selectively allocated limited deliveries across contracts to maintain credibility in seller’s reliability. In a study of relational contracts in the Rwandan coffee industry, the same authors instrument the placement of mills to show that more potential competition from other mills reduces the use relational contracts with farmers making farmers worse […]

Rural transformation is accompanied by land concentration in medium farms in countries like Kenya , Ghana , Tanzania , and Zambia . These farms are typically mechanized and owned by well-educated urban-based professionals who can be effective agents for technology adoption. These various success stories show that using agriculture for development can be done, but […]

It presents a detailed account of management practices to enhance soil C storage and GHG mitigation, and a meta-analysis of published appraisals in the cropping systems of South Asia.Agriculture in South Asia is predominantly cereal-based, i.e. the cultivation of about 40 million hectares with multiple cereal crops or a single cereal crop, followed by a […]

These source signatures were comparable across season, particularly from manure lagoons, and were always different from one another by at least ~8‰. Additionally, isotopic signatures from CH4 hotspots observed from remote mobile surveys were consistent with on-farm isotopic signatures and captured CH4 source areas. Our downwind observations revealed that enteric fermentation derived CH4 contributed from 0 […]

A 2013 University of California, Berkeley study, for example, found that across the United States, Blacks were 52% more likely, Asian Americans 32% more likely, and Latinos/as 21% more likely to live in conditions with increased heat related risk as compared to whites. Furthermore, low-income people and people of color are also less likely to have […]
