RESPONSE OF PHYSIOLOGY, GROWTH AND YIELD OF SOYBEAN VARIETIES ON FERTILIZATION TREATMENT IN AGROFORESTRY SYSTEMS [PDF]
In agroforestry system, magnitude of crops adaptive responses to shade depends on amount of shade. Hence, soybean may modify its growth to adapt to competition in agroforestry systems.

Economically sustainable shade design for feedlot cattle
Provision of shade reduces radiant heat load on feedlot cattle, thus reducing demand of water and energy for thermoregulation. While the positive effects of shade on animal welfare are widely known, the literature lacks data on the magnitude of its ...

Effect of leaf thinning on shoot growth and tuber yield of white Guinea yam
Mutual leaf shading can inhibit the growth of yam, reducing tuber yield. To improve light utilization, approximately 25% of leaves in a plant were thinned during the period of maximum shoot growth.

Defoliation heights for palisade grass cv. Marandu in silvopastoral system
The objective was to test the response of Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu in monoculture and in silvopastoral system (SPS), at two distances from the trees, and define the best defoliation height for SPS.

Shades of Communitarianism [PDF]
In this paper, I analyse some implications of Rawls’ notion of desert and legitimate expectations in order to show how some communitarian criticism of his individualism can be answered from a quasi-communitarian perspective which can be found in A Theory of Justice.
