Inspectors and auditors thus shape the ways in which growers put rules and standards into practice, yet it is very difficult to gauge their consistency and level of influence. Second, produce buyers may impose additional, case-specific production specifications on their suppliers through purchasing contracts or even verbal communication.Little scholarship has examined how these varied and […]

The industry is particularly important along the western seaboard of Ireland
Acceleration with multi-threading or graphics processing units is another possible direction for future research. For the second topic, there are many directions to improve the models or expand the results. Uncertainty in wind farm optimization is a major issue to address. Using uncertainty quantification to address the variability in the wind speed, wind direction, and performances […]
The surface reconstruction problem begins with a representation of a geometric shape
Geometric non-interference constraint functions for gradient-based optimization require special consideration. These functions must be continuously differentiable or smooth in order to be used with a gradient-based optimization algorithm. They should also be efficient to compute because optimization algorithms evaluate constraint functions and their derivatives repeatedly over many optimization iterations. During some iterations, the optimizer may […]
The prescription for peach leaf curl is three annual sprays with copper or sulfur products
In leaves, the upregulated and downregulated SlARF6A transgenic lines possessed higher and lower chlorophyll levels, respectively, than the WT plants . Then, chlorophyll autofluorescence in the pericarp was detected using confocal laser scanning microscopy. OE-SlARF6A plants had stronger chlorophyll auto- fluorescence, while the RNAi-SlARF6A lines had weaker chlorophyll autofluorescence in both epicarp and endocarp tissues […]
Most premises reporting outbreaks reported only one outbreak in the two-year period
Porcine reproductive respiratory syndrome emerged in the U.S. in the late 1980’s and since then the disease has been prevalent in the country. The causative agent of PRRS is a highly mutant RNA-virus with two main linages, genotype 1 and genotype 2 , which is resilient to low temperatures and hence adaptable to the US Midwest, where most […]
Commensal bacteria can become pathogenic under certain conditions
Surveillance plays a crucial role in controlling the spread of AMR . Identifying resistance patterns and mechanisms helps create timely and efficient AMR control strategies. The problem of AMR spread can be addressed by implementing and promoting the One Health approach . WHO’s first global report on AMR surveillance showed that monitoring the AMR is […]
Dissecting intra-household dynamics uncovers valuable gendered experiences of difference
We choose FPE because it privileges gender as an axis of difference, it uncovers complexities of presumed social orders such as family and community, and it takes into account larger geopolitical processes that shape individual experiences. FPE privileges gender as the critical variable in the shifting landscape of family life because gender interacts with “class, […]
The second part of the chapter is a detailed description of the methods used throughout the process
These women and men negotiate a Portable Family identity, based onactions rather than interactions, and oscillating between the urban-productive home and the rural-reproductive home.Alternate Wetting and Drying is an irrigation technique in which water is applied to the field a number of days after the disappearance of ponded water. This is in contrast to the conventional […]
The field had a long history of conventional cultivation prior to the transition to organic production
This alternative outcome here suggests that while this soil chemical property shows sensitivity to differences perceived by farmers in their selected fields, this commonly used indicator does not adequately capture the direction of farmer knowledge of soil fertility between their selected fields. On the one hand, it is not surprising that total soil nitrogen was the […]
Field sampling occurred over the course of four weeks in July 2019
However, farmers possess wide and deep place-based knowledge of their soils that has the potential to advance work on soil health beyond its currently limited scope . Inclusion of farmer knowledge is integral if one outcome of ongoing research on soil health is to address both social and ecological resilience. Farmers are uniquely positioned to […]
