Evaluation of Greenhouse Cucumber Production Sustainability in Terms of Energy Use Efficiency

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2020
Sustainable agricultural production could be assessed through energy-use efficiency (EUE). Thus, this paper aims to evaluate the EUE for cucumber greenhouse production in Oman. Data were obtained by interviewing farmers (face-to-face).

Environmental impacts of irrigated and rain-fed barley production in Iran using life cycle assessment (LCA)

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2017
Current intensive grain crops production is often associated with environmental burdens. However, very few studies deal with the environmental performance of both current and alternative systems of barley production. This study was undertaken to evaluate

Adapted Conservation Agriculture Practices Can Increase Energy Productivity and Lower Yield-Scaled Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Coastal Bangladesh

open access: yesFrontiers in Agronomy, 2022
While numerous studies have documented the benefits of conservation agriculture (CA) in South Asia, most focus on favorable environments where farmers have reliable access to energy supporting irrigation and inputs.

Energy Efficiency of Oat:Pea Intercrops Affected by Sowing Ratio and Nitrogen Fertilization

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
This study analyzed energy input (direct and indirect), energy output, net-energy output, energy use efficiency, energy intensity, and the energy productivity of oat:pea intercrops as affected by sowing ratio (oat:pea (%:%): 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:

Productive efficiency of energy-aware walnut production

open access: yesANADOLU JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES, 2023
Innovative cultivation and processing facilities are needed in order for the increased production in Türkiye to be efficient, low energy consumption, and high quality. Therefore, an in-depth analysis of the US California-based walnut producer has been made, which can also be an industrial role model to Turkish producers. The orchard of Chandler variety

Energy Flow in Growth and Production [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Ecology & Evolution, 2019
Growth involves two flows of energy: the chemical energy in the monomers used to construct the macromolecules that comprise tissue (proteins, nucleic acids, lipid membranes), and the metabolic energy used to build those macromolecules. The metabolic costs of synthesising the macromolecules necessary to build tissue are well defined, and we have a ...

Energy production inGluconobacter liquefaciens [PDF]

open access: yesAntonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1961
Energy production in Gl. liquefaciens was studied by measuring oxidative phosphorylation in cell-free extracts and molar growth yield in growing cultures. P/O ratios were found very low and ranged from 0.09 for DPNH to 0.40 for glucose 6-phosphate, that is about 5% of the efficiency in animal mitochondria.

“Live-Autoradiography” Technique Reveals Genetic Variation in the Rate of Fe Uptake by Barley Cultivars

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Iron (Fe) is an essential trace element in plants; however, the available Fe in soil solution does not always satisfy the demand of plants. Genetic diversity in the rate of Fe uptake by plants has not been broadly surveyed among plant species or ...
