Acid fog injures California crops
California Agriculture, 1988 The effect of acid rain on agricultural crops has been studied extensively in the past decade by plant scientists in the United States. Research has shown that agricultural crops can be injured as acidity in rain approaches pH 3.

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Green raisin production is limited by rapid chlorophyll degradation during drying. This study evaluated copper metallo‐complex formation to stabilize green pigmentation in Vitis vinifera cv. Thompson Seedless grapes. Pretreatments with copper sulfate (CuSO4) pentahydrate (2%–6% w/v) were applied via dipping and vacuum impregnation (2–10 min ...

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.Processing quality in fruit crops is governed by complex genetic networks controlling texture, sweetness, color, browning, aroma, and nutritional quality. Advances in genomics, genomic selection, and genome editing enable the development of processing‐oriented cultivars with improved industrial performance, reduced postharvest losses, and enhanced ...

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.Postharvest losses in vegetables extend beyond mere quantitative reduction through physical deterioration and spoilage; they encompass substantial qualitative degradation, particularly the deterioration of critical nutritional constituents. Following harvest, vegetables maintain metabolic activity, and when subjected to suboptimal environmental ...

International cooperation to combat acid rain
, 1995 The combustion of some fossil fuels releases compounds into the atmosphere that are capable of travelling hundreds of miles. When they eventually land they can cause damage to crops, ecosystems, buildings, and human health. This phenomenon has been given

Grassland Research, EarlyView.Abstract Background Leaf shatter during low‐moisture baling and mold proliferation under high‐moisture conditions pose major challenges in alfalfa hay production. A proprietary propionic acid‐based hay preservative product, LZP, effectively inhibits microbial reproduction in high‐moisture alfalfa bales; however, its optimal moisture thresholds and ...
