- Abstract:To determine suitable soaking and illumination time for the production of fava bean sprouts,the influence of different soaking time (12,16,20,24,28 h) and illumination time (8,9,10,11,12 h/d) on the growth and quality of fava bean sprouts were analyzed in this study.The results showed that the seedling length,stem fresh weight and edible rate of fava bean sprouts increased with the soaking time.After 16 h of seed soaking,the growth indexes and soluble protein content of fava bean sprouts were significantly higher than those of 12 h.Except for 16 h,L-DOPA content was significantly less than 12 h in all the other soaking time.With the extension of illumination time,the growth of fava bean sprouts slowed down significantly.When the illumination time was 9 h/d,the L-DOPA content was significantly higher than that of 8 h/d,and there was no significant difference with other treatments.Soluble protein and sugar reached the optimal content at 9 h/d illumination time.The L-DOPA content was taken as the main index,and both nutrition and growth indexes were taken into account.The optimum soaking time and illumination time for fava bean sprouts production were 16 h and 9 h/d,respectively.Keywords:fava bean sprout;soaking time;illumination time;L-dopa;growth;quality4|14|2<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
- Abstract:In order to analyze the environmental factors affecting the main agronomic and quality traits of sweet sorghum,experiments were conducted in four regions of Tianjin,Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and Liaoning Province with different genotypes of sweet sorghum as study materials.The relationship between the target traits and environmental factors were analyzed and a prediction model for target traits was established.The results showed that:The plant height,stem diameter and the number of stem nodes of sweet sorghum were dominated by genotype effect;Its panicle length was dominated by genotype×environment interaction and genotype effect and panicle weight was dominated by environment effect;Brix and crude protein content were the result of the average interaction of genotype,environment and genotype with environment.The brix was positively correlated with soil pH value,organic matter content and available phosphorus content,while the crude protein content had no significant correlation with diurnal temperature difference and organic matter content,but it was positively correlated with eight other factors such as precipitation;Path analysis and stepwise regression analysis showed that daily average temperature,diurnal temperature difference,soil pH value and available phosphorus content were the main factors affecting panicle weight,among which soil pH value had the greatest and negative effect; ≥ 10℃ effective accumulated temperature,soil pH value and organic matter content were the important factors affecting the brix,and the contribution rate of organic matter content was the highest,which had a positive effect on crude protein content.The key factor affecting the crude protein content was precipitation.Keywords:sweet sorghum;traits;environmental factors;genotype;environment;interaction effect0|8|2<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
- Abstract:To study the relationship between the physical characteristics and seed vigor of barley germplasm,a total of 44 colored barley germplasms were taken as study object.Combination of germination test and computer image recognition was used to determine the relationship between seed physical characteristics and seed vigor of colored barley by measuring the germination characteristics and seed physiological characteristics of barley seeds.Correlation analysis,principal component analysis and stepwise regression analysis were conducted.The results showed that:The germplasm vigor of colored barley was positively correlated with the Y (Yellow) value of seed coat color,and the other color characteristics were negatively correlated with the germplasm of colored barley.Stepwise regression analysis showed that the effect of seed coat color on the vigor of colored barley germplasm was greater than that of seed physical characteristics,grain length and grain thickness.The seed physical characteristics showed that the grain length,grain width,grain thickness and 1 000-grain weight were not significantly related to the seed vigor of colored barley,and the main color characteristics affecting the vigor of colored barley germplasm are H (hues) value and a (range from magenta to green),and are negatively correlated;In addition,the Integrated optical density (IOD) value is extremely positively correlated with the grain length and the grain width.Keywords:colored barley;seed morphology;seed color;vigor;image identification2|8|2<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
- Abstract:In order to clarify the effect of pre-winter compaction and irrigation on the growth of winter wheat,a field experiment was carried out during 2016-2017 winter wheat growing season.Pre-winter compaction + irrigation (C+I),irrigation (I) and compaction (C) were applied to the winter wheat variety ‘Jimai 22’,the normal growing plant was used as a control (CK),and the plant morphology and yield were analyzed in this experiment.The results showed that the tiller number and effective spike rate of tiller were increased and the final height of the wheat was highest in C+I,followed by I,C,and CK treatments.The length of the basal first and second internodes of wheat was reduced,and the unit length dry weight,stem thick and wall thickness were all increased significantly in C+I,followed by C and I treatments compared with control.The transferred amount,transfer rate of the pre-anthesis stored dry matter and its contribution rate to grain yield were reduced by C+I,C and I,with the maximum reduction found in C+I,followed by C and I.However,the amount of dry mater accumulated during post-anthsis and its contribution rate to grain yield were the highest in C+I.The spike number per unit area,final yield and harvest index of C+I treatment were all maximum and higher than C,I and CK successively.In conclusion,these result showed that pre-winter compaction+irrigation or individual irrigation or compaction could promote wheat growth and increase the lodging resistance and final yield of wheat.The combination of compaction and irrigation is greater than individual measures.Therefore,the pre-winter compaction + irrigation measures in production is optimal for the growth of winter wheat in Shandong Province.However,even under the situation of no irrigation conditions,pre-winter compaction is also beneficial to wheat production.Keywords:wheat;compaction;irrigation;plant morphology;yield2|10|1<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27

- Abstract:Based on the survey data of three pig farm households in Beijing,Liaoning and Hebei provinces,this study empirically analyses the influence of transaction mode on the quality and safety control behavior of farm households.The study found that,because of the different economic connotation of the quality attribute and the safety attribute of the pig,the influence of the transaction mode on the quality and safety control behavior of the farm households is different:Compared with the market transaction,the contract with the slaughterhouse has significantly improved in the quality control and safety control of the farm households.The contract with pig buyers helps improve the quality control of farms,but is not conducive to their safety control.In addition,the individual characteristics,the production characteristics,the external environment,the expected return and the cognitive level of the farm households have affected the quality and safety control behavior of the farm households.Suggestions are put forwarded accordingly as following:Pay attention to the coordination of government regulation and market management,strengthen the supervision with management of pig buyers and sellers and raise the organization level of farmers.Keywords:transaction mode;farm household;quality and safety of pig;control behavior;industrial organization0|8|1<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
- Abstract:Meta-frontier method was adopted to measure and compare the egg farmers' technical efficiency of different scales under the common production frontier in the last ten years.The results showed that:In the past ten years,the technical efficiency of the small-scale farmers was in basic level;The medium-scale farmers increased investment in fixed assets,improved the technology level but decreased the technical exertion degree.It caused short-term fluctuations in technical efficiency and the farmers obtained higher level technical efficiency finally;the large-scale farmers improved the level of management and higher level of management influenced technical efficiency from the two aspects of technical efficiency.However,but the large-scale farmers technical efficiency was relatively low.In conclusion,the development of the middle-scale egg farmers is still in the initial stage and needs further improvement.Keywords:meta-frontier;scale evolution;technical efficiency;layer culture0|7|1<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
- Abstract:In view of the problem of large fluctuations in the profit of laying hens breeding company,this study uses egg,corn and soybean meal futures to design industry chain hedging plan,estimates the hedging ratio through OLS,B-VAR and ECM models,and finally compares and analyzes the effect of hedging.The results show that:1) The futures prices of eggs,corn and soybean meal are highly correlated with spot price,so that the feasibility of hedging is provided;2) When the egg price is expected to fall in the future period,the egg chicken breeding company can sell egg futures in advance for hedging,while buying corn and soybean meal futures to reduce the risk of spot profit fluctuations;3) The effect of hedging with the hedging ratio estimated by the OLS model is better than those estimated by the ECM model and the B-VAR model over the selected time period,that is,the hedging value is higher and the standard deviation is lower.Therefore,the egg producers can use the futures market for industry chain hedging to reduce the market risk.Keywords:egg futures;hedging ratio;hedging plan;hedging performance;industry chain1|8|0<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
- Abstract:To clarify the development status of rural financial market in China and explore the influence mechanism of rural credit market and agricultural insurance market on the formation of large grain farmers,this study adopts the research method of literature review to systematically review and theoretically sort out relevant researches.The results show that:First,it is of great practical significance to moderately expand the scale of food and agriculture operations for the development of agriculture in China.Second,whether the development of rural financial markets is perfect or not,it is the key to expanding the scale of food and agriculture operations.Thirdly,at this stage,China inadequate development of rural financial markets in China is not conducive to farmers to obtain credit and insurance.In conclusion,the imperfect credit market is obstacle for the grain and agricultural farmers to get access capital and not conducive to factor substitution and expand the scale of production.The imperfect insurance market is obstacle for the grain and agricultural farmers to get access insurance and not conducive to production stability after the expansion of scale.Keywords:credit;insurance;large grain farmer;literature review1|7|0<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
- Abstract:Based on the field research data of peasant household in Anding District of Dingxi City,Gansu Province,an empirical study on the technical efficiency and influence factors of potato production in the mountainous areas in Northwest China was conducted by using the translog stochastic frontier model.The results indicated that the overall level of technical efficiency of potato production in mountainous regions was lower,which implied a large space for improvement.Specifically,the average value of technical efficiency in medium-scale peasant household was higher than that in small-scale or large-scale farmers household.For the influence factors on potato production,it was revealed that in the characteristics of peasant household including the degree of specialization,cognitive level and labor forces had positive impacts on the technical efficiency of potato production.In the variables of producer services,only the fertilization positively affected the technical efficiency of potato production.In the variables of land features,a negative influence of the lands' scale on the technical efficiency of potato production was also found.Therefore,potato production transformation that improves the quality and efficiency in peasant household should be encouraged by the government.It is necessary to explore the moderate scale management of potato production to achieve the regular integration between peasant household and the modern agriculture development.Keywords:mountainous area;scale difference;technical efficiency;influence factor;potato0|8|2<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
