Monitoring of water use for irrigated rice cultivation on the southern Coast of Santa Catarina, Brazil

Rice growing is the main agricultural activity on the southern coast of Santa Catarina. The cultivation system used is flood irrigation with planting in the pre-germinated system. The activity is characterized by the high demand for water use, and thus there are water use conflicts and also impacts on water quality. Irrigation is carried out based on natural water availability and there are no structures for measuring the volumes used. This study aimed to monitor and evaluate the use of irrigation water in a collective system of irrigation association of rice producers.

Study of 4-chlorophenoxyacetic acidadsorption on coconut shell biochar

The adsorption of 4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (4-CPA) by coconut shell biochar (CSB) was investigated. The effect of sample solution pH was studied. The optimum solution pH value was1. This suggested that the strong interaction of 4-CPA with the CSB.Therefore, CSB, as a green, environmental-friendly adsorbent, can be applied to the adsorption of contaminants in environment.

Food supply chain traceability using hyperledger

With the advent of globalization, supply chain systems in all domains have become highly complex due to the ever-growing networking and change of approach towards automation which have at times been limited in traditional supply chains. One of the key aspects to be targeted in conventional methodologies is the centralized nature of the supply chain. Due to this factor, there is deterioration in the quality, contamination and tampering of the food product that is delivered to the end user.

Origin, distribution, taxonomy, botanical description, cytogenetics, genetic diversity and breeding of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench.)

Okra, (Abelmoschus esculentus), herbaceous hairy annual plant of the family Malvaceae. Okra originated somewhere around the Ethiopia, and was cultivated by the ancient Egyptians by the 12th century B.C. Its cultivation spread throughout Middle East and North Africa. There are two hypotheses concerning the geographical origin of A. esculentus. Some authors argue that one putative ancestor (A.tuberculatus) is native to Uttar Pradesh in northern India, suggesting that the species originated from this geographic area.
