How Competitive Is Myanmar's Rice Sector? A Comparison of Production Costs and Efficiency

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the cost competitiveness of rice production in Myanmar by examining production costs, cost efficiency, and the potential effect of improving cost efficiency on the country's global competitiveness. To achieve this, we conduct a comparative analysis of production costs among major rice‐producing countries and estimate the ...

Silicon Treatment on Sorghum Plants Prior to Glyphosate Spraying: Effects on Growth, Nutrition, and Metabolism

AgriEngineering
Low doses of glyphosate from application drift can be phytotoxic or stimulate growth of glyphosate-susceptible crops. The application of Si can prevent herbicide-caused plant stress.

Glyphosate‐Resistant Soybean Cultivar Response to Glyphosate

Agronomy Journal, 2001
Glyphosate (N‐(phosphonomethyl) glycine)‐resistant (GR) soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] technology is gaining acceptance in U.S. cropping systems, yet potential yield suppression from either cultivar genetic differentials, the GR gene/gene insertion process, or glyphosate is a concern.

Who Are the Farmers Participating in a Carbon Sequestration Program? Results of a Discrete Choice Experiment in Germany

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural soils offer great potential for carbon sequestration through humus formation. One way to motivate farmers to build up humus is through humus programs. These are still at an early stage of development, poorly explored, and the number of participating farmers is low. Our aim is to explain the heterogeneity of farmers' willingness to

Sustainable Graphene Oxide–Intercalated Bentonite Composite for the Effective Removal of Imidacloprid From Water: Adsorption Performance, Isotherm, and Kinetics

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental necessity for our existence, but its rapid contamination is causing devastating effects on the environment and health of living species worldwide. Adsorptive removal of pollutants is one of the popular water treatment techniques because of its simplicity, affordability, and the broad range of available adsorbents.
