HighlightsCracking and subsequent breakage of rice kernels reduces the marketability and profitability of rice.Pre-milling cracks in rice kernels cause breakage during milling, thereby reducing consumer acceptability.Three types of post-milling cracks reported are: surface, internal, and Hanasaki cracks.Post-milling cracks can be minimized throughout the supply chain.Abstract. Rice is consumed as intact grain, and any broken grains are discounted from the main marketable product. Breakage of rice mainly arises from cracks formed in the endosperm before or after milling. The cracks are formed by stress gradients that arise due to moisture absorption or desorption by grains. As a result of such stress, cracks mostly develop in a direction perpendicular to the length of the grain, making it less physically resistant to the stresses of milling, handling, and soaking processes. Until now, research into rice cracking has mainly focused on minimizing breakage during milling, and no significant knowledge is available on the impact and mechanisms of post-milling cracking and/or breakage and its effect on the downstream quality of rice. This article aims to review the existing information on the causes of rice cracking before and after milling. Keywords: Breakage, Crack, Drying, Glass transition temperature, Hanasaki, Head rice yield, Rice, Tempering.
米粒破碎和随后的破碎降低了大米的适销性和盈利能力。碾磨前的米粒裂纹会在碾磨过程中造成破损,从而降低消费者的接受度。三种类型的铣削后裂纹报告:表面,内部和Hanasaki裂纹。铣削后的裂纹可以在整个供应链中最小化。大米作为完整的谷物消费,任何破碎的谷物都从主要的市场产品中打折。稻米的断裂主要是由于碾磨前后胚乳形成的裂缝。裂纹是由晶粒吸湿或解吸产生的应力梯度形成的。由于这种应力,裂纹大多在垂直于晶粒长度的方向上发展,使其对铣削,处理和浸泡过程的应力的物理抗性降低。到目前为止,对大米裂化的研究主要集中在减少碾磨过程中的破碎,而对碾磨后裂化和/或破碎的影响和机制及其对大米下游品质的影响还没有重要的认识。本文的目的是回顾现有的资料,大米碾磨前后开裂的原因。关键词:断裂,裂纹,干燥,玻璃化温度,Hanasaki,抽穗产量,稻米,回火。

HighlightsThe placement and operation of exhaust fans was assessed using CFD simulation.The effective temperature was used to evaluate the indoor thermal environment.The placement and operation of the exhaust fans mainly affected the airflow patterns in the part of the layer house closest to the fans.Abstract. The thermal environment inside a layer house significantly affects the growth, production, and health of the hens. Tunnel ventilation systems have been widely applied to control the indoor climate and air quality for large-scale poultry facilities around the world. Generally, only a few of the exhaust fans operate during mild seasons (spring and fall) in a tunnel-ventilated layer house depending on the outside air temperature. The decision about which exhaust fans to turn on affects the indoor airflow pattern and temperature distribution. However, little research has been reported that investigated the effects of the locations of exhaust fans on ventilation performance. In this study, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was built and validated using field-measured data. The CFD model was then used to evaluate different ventilation strategies (combinations of exhaust fans) in a typical tunnel-ventilated layer house during the fall. The effective temperature was used to assess the performance of different ventilation strategies. Results showed that the locations of the exhaust fans significantly affected the indoor thermal environment, especially in the part of the house closest to the fans, because different locations of operating fans can generate different airflow patterns and affect the airflow through the animal-occupied zone. Based on the simulations, we conclude that the placement and operation of the exhaust fans can be optimized. Turning on the fans that are lower to the ground or near the sidewalls will result in more air bypassing the animal-occupied zones. Our results can help select the best ventilation strategy during the spring and fall in layer houses with tunnel ventilation systems. Keywords: Airflow distribution, Effective temperature distribution, Indoor thermal environments, Ventilation strategy.
利用CFD模拟对排气扇的布置和运行进行了评估。采用有效温度对室内热环境进行评价。排风机的布置和运行主要影响层屋最靠近排风机部分的气流形态。鸡舍内的热环境对蛋鸡的生长、生产和健康有显著影响。隧道通风系统已广泛应用于全球大型家禽养殖场的室内气候和空气质量控制。一般来说,在温和的季节(春季和秋季),在隧道通风层房屋中,根据外部空气温度,只有少数排风机运行。打开哪个排风机的决定会影响室内的气流模式和温度分布。然而,很少有研究报道调查了排风机的位置对通风性能的影响。在本研究中,建立了计算流体动力学(CFD)模型,并使用现场实测数据进行了验证。然后使用CFD模型评估了典型隧道通风层屋在秋季的不同通风策略(排风机组合)。利用有效温度来评价不同通风策略的效果。结果表明,排风机的位置对室内热环境有显著影响,特别是在离排风机最近的房屋部分,因为不同的排风机位置会产生不同的气流模式,从而影响通过动物占用区的气流。仿真结果表明,排气扇的布置和运行是可以优化的。打开离地面较低或靠近侧壁的风扇将导致更多的空气绕过动物占据的区域。我们的研究结果可以帮助采用隧道通风系统的多层房屋选择春季和秋季的最佳通风策略。关键词:气流分布,有效温度分布,室内热环境,通风策略

HighlightsModels using LiDAR measurements and field observations as predictors can accurately predict alfalfa canopy height.The most efficient model used only the 95th percentile of LiDAR-measured height to estimate canopy height.Adding field observations of weed, insect, and disease pressure only marginally improved the predictive models.Abstract. Alfalfa is a popular crop that is grown worldwide because it is a nutritious feed for livestock and fixes nitrogen in the soil. Profitable alfalfa production greatly relies on monitoring the status of the alfalfa crop. Traditionally, producers have used crop assessment techniques that rely on manual measurements of alfalfa plant height, which can be used to predict nutritive quality and yield. These manual measurements are often labor-intensive and provide low-resolution data that is not acceptable for field-scale monitoring. The goal of this study was to assess the capability of a simple LiDAR setup to accurately estimate the average canopy height of an alfalfa crop. To achieve this goal, we first developed predictive models of alfalfa canopy height using LiDAR-derived measurements as predictor variables. Second, we assessed the accuracies of the models and compared the properties of each model. Third, we determined the optimal LiDAR-derived measurements to use to accurately predict average alfalfa canopy height. The data used in our models were collected in two separate fields planted with two different cultivars of alfalfa. Data collection was performed on five dates spanning one entire growth cycle during the summer of 2019. A simple single-beam LiDAR sensor was used to scan the canopy of sample plots within the fields. Manual measurements of plant height and field observations of insect, disease, and weed pressure were also recorded. Of the data used in the predictive models, the 95th percentile of LiDAR-measured height was found to be the optimal predictor for estimating alfalfa canopy height. Using the 95th percentile as a single predictor in a linear regression model of measured average canopy height resulted in an R2 of 0.90 and RMSE of 4.5 cm. Two other linear regression models using a combination of LiDAR measurements and LiDAR measurements with alfalfa health observations, respectfully, were developed for comparison. These models exhibited marginally better accuracies but required more inputs than the model only using the 95th percentile. This study shows how simple LiDAR configurations can be used for timely collection of accurate alfalfa canopy height data. From our findings, we suggest using the 95th percentile of LiDAR-derived canopy height to estimate alfalfa canopy height. This study lays the groundwork for research into more advanced LiDAR configurations for alfalfa applications, such as LiDAR-equipped UAVs. Keywords: Alfalfa, Canopy height, LiDAR.
利用激光雷达测量和实地观测作为预测因子的highlightmodels可以准确地预测紫花苜蓿冠层高度。最有效的模型仅使用激光雷达测量高度的第95百分位来估计冠层高度。加上田间杂草、昆虫和病害压力的观测,对预测模型的改进作用微乎其微。紫花苜蓿是一种在世界各地都很受欢迎的作物,因为它是牲畜的营养饲料,还能固定土壤中的氮。有利可图的苜蓿生产在很大程度上依赖于对苜蓿作物状况的监测。传统上,生产者使用的作物评估技术依赖于人工测量苜蓿株高,这可以用来预测营养质量和产量。这些手动测量通常是劳动密集型的,并且提供的低分辨率数据不适合现场规模的监测。本研究的目的是评估一个简单的激光雷达装置的能力,以准确估计苜蓿作物的平均冠层高度。为了实现这一目标,我们首先利用激光雷达测量数据作为预测变量,建立了苜蓿冠层高度的预测模型。其次,我们评估了模型的准确性,并比较了每个模型的属性。第三,我们确定了用于准确预测紫花苜蓿平均冠层高度的最佳激光雷达衍生测量值。在我们的模型中使用的数据是在种植两种不同苜蓿品种的两个单独的田中收集的。数据收集在2019年夏季的五个日期进行,跨越了整个生长周期。使用简单的单光束激光雷达传感器扫描田野内样地的冠层。还记录了人工测量植物高度和实地观察虫、病和杂草压力。在预测模型中使用的数据中,激光雷达测量高度的第95百分位是估计紫花苜蓿冠层高度的最佳预测因子。在测量的平均冠层高度的线性回归模型中,使用第95百分位作为单一预测因子,R2为0.90,RMSE为4.5 cm。另外两个线性回归模型使用激光雷达测量和激光雷达测量与苜蓿健康观察相结合,分别开发用于比较。这些模型的准确性略好,但需要更多的输入,而不是只使用第95个百分位的模型。本研究展示了如何使用简单的激光雷达配置来及时收集准确的苜蓿冠层高度数据。根据我们的研究结果,我们建议使用激光雷达获得的冠层高度的第95百分位来估计紫花苜蓿的冠层高度。这项研究为研究用于紫花苜蓿应用的更先进的激光雷达配置奠定了基础,例如配备激光雷达的无人机。关键词:紫花苜蓿,冠层高度,激光雷达

HighlightsLeaf nitrogen percentage in corn was estimated using various vegetation indices derived from UAVs.Eight machine learning methods were compared to find the most accurate model for nitrogen estimation.The most influential vegetation indices were determined for estimation of leaf nitrogen.Abstract. Nitrogen (N) is the most critical component of healthy plants. It has a significant impact on photosynthesis and plant reproduction. Physicochemical characteristics of plants such as leaf N content can be estimated spatially and temporally because of the latest developments in multispectral sensing technology and machine learning (ML) methods. The objective of this study was to use spectral data for leaf N estimation in corn to compare different ML models and find the best-fitted model. Moreover, the performance of vegetation indices (VIs) and spectral wavelengths were compared individually and collectively to determine if combinations of VIs substantially improved the results as compared to the original spectral data. This study was conducted at a Mississippi State University corn field that was divided into 16 plots with four different N treatments (0, 90, 180, and 270 kg ha-1). The bare soil pixels were removed from the multispectral images, and 26 VIs were calculated based on five spectral bands: blue, green, red, red-edge, and near-infrared (NIR). The 26 VIs and five spectral bands obtained from a red-edge multispectral sensor mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) were analyzed to develop ML models for leaf %N estimation of corn. The input variables used in these models had the most impact on chlorophyll and N content and high correlation with leaf N content. Eight ML algorithms (random forest, gradient boosting, support vector machine, multi-layer perceptron, ridge regression, lasso regression, and elastic net) were applied to three different categories of variables. The results show that gradient boosting and random forest were the best-fitted models to estimate leaf %N, with about an 80% coefficient of determination for the different categories of variables. Moreover, adding VIs to the spectral bands improved the results. The combination of SCCCI, NDRE, and red-edge had the largest coefficient of determination (R2) in comparison to the other categories of variables used to predict leaf %N content in corn. Keywords: Corn, Gradient boosting, Machine learning, Multispectral imagery, Nitrogen estimation, Random forest, UAV, Vegetation index.
利用无人机获取的各种植被指数估算了玉米叶片氮含量。比较了八种机器学习方法,找到了最准确的氮估计模型。确定了对叶片氮估算影响最大的植被指数。氮(N)是健康植物最关键的成分。它对光合作用和植物繁殖有重要影响。由于多光谱传感技术和机器学习技术的最新发展,植物的理化特征如叶片氮含量可以在空间和时间上进行估计。本研究的目的是利用光谱数据进行玉米叶片氮估计,比较不同的ML模型,找到最适合的模型。此外,对植被指数(VIs)和光谱波长的性能进行了单独和集体比较,以确定VIs组合是否比原始光谱数据显著改善了结果。本研究在密西西比州立大学玉米田进行,将玉米田分为16块,施氮量分别为0、90、180和270 kg hm -1。从多光谱图像中去除裸露土壤像元,并基于蓝、绿、红、红边和近红外5个光谱波段计算26 VIs。利用安装在无人机上的红边多光谱传感器获取的26个VIs和5个光谱波段进行分析,建立了玉米叶片%N估算的ML模型。各模型输入变量对叶绿素和氮含量影响最大,且与叶片氮含量相关性较高。八种机器学习算法(随机森林、梯度增强、支持向量机、多层感知器、脊回归、lasso回归和弹性网)应用于三种不同类别的变量。结果表明,梯度增强和随机森林是估计叶片%N的最佳拟合模型,对于不同类别的变量,其决定系数约为80%。此外,在光谱带中加入VIs改善了结果。与其他预测玉米叶片%N含量的变量相比,SCCCI、NDRE和红边组合的决定系数(R2)最大。关键词:玉米,梯度增强,机器学习,多光谱图像,氮估计,随机森林,无人机,植被指数

HighlightsFTC-4 treated brown rice showed better protein digestibility.BR-AAS was used to evaluate the nutritive value of released free amino acids.G24P treated brown rice is recommended to supplement amino acid intake in a daily diet.Abstract. The objective of this study was to evaluate the in vitro protein digestibility of brown rice (BR) after high-pressure (HP), freeze-thaw cycle (FTC), and germination-parboiling (GP) treatments. Four-cycle freeze-thaw (FTC-4) treatment enhanced digestibility, and all treated BR released more essential and total amino acids after digestion. To evaluate the nutritive value of free amino acids released after digestion (on the premise of the same intake of BR products), a BR amino acid score (BR-AAS) was used, based on the patterns of protein digestibility-corrected amino acid scores with modifications. Results suggested that BR treated with 24 h of germination followed by 10 min of parboiling (G24P) was a better choice for supplementing amino acid intake in a daily diet. All treatments resulted in decreased protein solubility, which was negatively correlated with surface hydrophobicity and disulfide bond contents. The HP, FTC, and GP treatments affected certain protein properties, which was helpful in explaining the differences in protein digestibility of BR. Changes in other constituents were considered important with respect to the treatment influence on protein digestibility. Keywords: Brown rice, Freeze-thaw cycles, Germination-parboiling, High-pressure, Protein in vitro digestibility.
经ftc -4处理的糙米具有较好的蛋白质消化率。采用br -原子吸收光谱法评价释放的游离氨基酸的营养价值。建议用G24P处理糙米补充日粮中氨基酸的摄入量。本研究旨在评价高压(HP)、冻融循环(FTC)和萌发-沸腾(GP)处理后糙米(BR)的体外蛋白质消化率。四循环冻融(FTC-4)处理提高了BR的消化率,所有处理的BR消化后释放的必需氨基酸和总氨基酸都更多。为了评估消化后释放的游离氨基酸的营养价值(在相同BR产品摄入量的前提下),采用BR氨基酸评分(BR- aas),基于修正后的蛋白质消化率修正氨基酸评分模式。结果表明,BR萌发24 h后再煮10 min (G24P)是补充日粮氨基酸摄入量的较好选择。所有处理均导致蛋白质溶解度降低,并与表面疏水性和二硫键含量呈负相关。HP、FTC和GP处理影响了某些蛋白质特性,这有助于解释BR蛋白质消化率的差异。对于处理对蛋白质消化率的影响,其他成分的变化被认为是重要的。关键词:糙米,冻融循环,萌发-半煮,高压,蛋白质体外消化率

Highlights To improve the performance for precision planting of soybean at high speeds, a guiding groove precision metering device was developed. The seed feeding and clearing processes were analyzed to determine the critical design and operational factors. The effects of critical metering parameters on the meter performance were simulated using the DEM. The metering performance was evaluated using bench tests. ABSTRACT Precision planting is the inevitable trend of agricultural development, and the promotion of precision planting technology is the key to increase crop yield. To improve the performance of precision planting at high speeds, a mechanical-type precision metering device was developed for soybean. The innovative feature of the device was the guiding-groove (GG) that provided “waiting areas” for seeds to form a line and subsequently enter the seed cells in an orderly and rapid fashion. By the force analysis, mechanical model of seed feeding stage was set up. Relationships between design parameters of the meter and the metering performance (multiple index, miss index, quality index and feeding efficiency index) were obtained through simulations using a discrete element model (DEM). The simulations conducted in this study were based on the central composite design (CCD). Then, the relationships were used to determine the design parameters to achieve the best metering performance. With these design parameters, the GG meter was fabricated and evaluated through bench tests. Results showed that the critical design parameters were the width of inner groove-wheel (L), cone angle of the shell (δ), the width of guiding-groove (L1), and the angle of the groove bottom surface to the horizontal plane (ɳ). The relationship between these parameters and metering performance could be described by a second-order polynomial equation, and the best metering performance occurred when L=25.3 mm, δ=23.6°, L1=8.1 mm and ɳ=8.3°. The bench test results showed that the GG meter designed with these optimal design parameters had metering performance values (quality index) of 93% and higher over planter travel speeds of 8 to 15 km h-1. In addition, the coefficients of variation of metering performance over the range of planter travel speeds were lower than 30%.
为提高大豆高速精密种植的性能,研制了一种导向槽精密计量装置。分析了种子的饲喂和清除过程,确定了关键的设计和操作因素。利用DEM模拟了关键计量参数对电表性能的影响。通过台架试验对计量性能进行了评价。精准种植是农业发展的必然趋势,推广精准种植技术是提高作物产量的关键。为提高大豆高速精密种植的性能,研制了一种机械式大豆精密计量装置。该装置的创新之处在于导向槽(GG),它为种子形成一条线提供了“等待区”,随后以有序和快速的方式进入种子细胞。通过受力分析,建立了种子输送阶段的力学模型。采用离散元模型(DEM)进行仿真,得到了计量仪表设计参数与计量性能(多重指标、脱靶指标、质量指标和进料效率指标)之间的关系。本研究的模拟基于中心复合设计(CCD)。然后,利用这些关系来确定设计参数,以获得最佳的计量性能。根据这些设计参数,制作了GG仪表,并通过台架试验对其进行了评价。结果表明:内槽轮宽度(L)、壳体锥角(δ)、导向槽宽度(L1)和导向槽底面与水平面的夹角(%)是关键设计参数。当L=25.3 mm, δ=23.6°,L1=8.1 mm, n =8.3°时,测光性能最佳。台架试验结果表明,在播种机8 ~ 15 km h-1的速度下,以这些优化设计参数设计的GG仪的计量性能值(质量指数)达到93%以上。此外,计量性能在播种机行驶速度范围内的变异系数均小于30%。

HighlightsFour crop growth modules in RZWQM2 were calibrated for four sugarbeet rotation sequences.Sugarbeet following wheat had a slightly higher yield (3% to 6.5%).Moldboard plow increased sugarbeet yield by 1% to 2%.The difference in N losses under different crop rotations and tillage operations was negligible.Abstract. Sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris) is considered to be one of the most viable alternatives to corn for biofuel production as it may be qualified as the feedstock for advanced biofuels (reducing greenhouse gas emission by 50%) under the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007. Because sugarbeet production is affected by crop rotation and tillage through optimal use of soil water and nutrients, simulation of these effects will help in making proper management decisions. In this study, the CSM-CERES-Beet, CSM-CERES-Maize, CROPSIM-Wheat, and CROPGRO-Soybean models included in the RZWQM2 were calibrated against experimental field data of crop yield, soil water, and soil nitrate from the North Dakota State University Carrington Research Extension Center from 2014 to 2016. The models performed reasonably well in simulating crop yield, soil water, and nitrate (rRMSE = 0.055 to 2.773, d = 0.541 to 0.997). Simulation results identified a non-significant effect of crop rotation on sugarbeet yield, although sugarbeets following wheat resulted in 3% to 6.5% higher yields compared to other crops. Net mineralization and N uptake rates were slightly higher when sugarbeets followed wheat compared to the other crops. Seasonal N and water mass balances also showed lower N and water stresses when sugarbeets followed wheat. The effects of tillage operations on sugarbeet yield were also non-significant. The difference in the N losses to runoff and drainage from the sugarbeet fields under different crop rotations and tillage operations was negligible. As sugarbeet production may be expanded into nontraditional planting areas in the Red River Valley due to potential demand for biofuel production, our findings will help to assess the associated environmental impacts and identify suitable crop rotations and management scenarios in the region.

对RZWQM2的4个作物生长模块进行了4个甜菜轮作序列的标定。继小麦之后,甜菜产量略高(3% ~ 6.5%)。板犁使甜菜产量提高1% ~ 2%。不同轮作和耕作方式下氮素损失的差异可以忽略不计。甜菜(Beta vulgaris)被认为是生物燃料生产中玉米最可行的替代品之一,因为根据2007年的《能源独立与安全法》(EISA),它可能符合先进生物燃料(减少50%的温室气体排放)的原料资格。由于作物轮作和耕作通过优化利用土壤水分和养分影响甜菜生产,模拟这些影响将有助于作出适当的管理决策。本研究利用2014 - 2016年北达科他州立大学卡灵顿研究推广中心作物产量、土壤水分和土壤硝酸盐的试验田数据,对RZWQM2中的csm - ceres -甜菜、csm - ceres -玉米、cropsim -小麦和cropgro -大豆模型进行了校准。模型对作物产量、土壤水分和硝酸盐的模拟效果较好(rRMSE = 0.055 ~ 2.773, d = 0.541 ~ 0.997)。模拟结果表明,轮作对甜菜产量的影响不显著,尽管小麦之后的甜菜产量比其他作物高出3%至6.5%。与其他作物相比,甜菜紧跟小麦的净矿化率和氮吸收率略高。季节氮素和水分平衡也表现出较低的氮素和水分胁迫。耕作方式对甜菜产量的影响也不显著。不同轮作和耕作方式下甜菜田径流和排水量的氮损失差异可以忽略不计。由于生物燃料生产的潜在需求,红河流域的甜菜生产可能会扩展到非传统种植区,我们的研究结果将有助于评估相关的环境影响,并确定该地区合适的作物轮作和管理方案。关键词:生物燃料,轮作,RZWQM2,甜菜,耕作

HighlightsThis study focused on the base cutting energy consumption for sugarcane stools instead of single stalks, thus being more consistent with actual field harvesting.The energy consumption increased with increasing rotational speed (RS) and stool diameter (SD), while it decreased with increasing tilt angle (TA) and feed rate (FR).Each pair of levels of each factor was compared using Duncan’s multiple range test. Three factors (RS, SD, and FR) had significant effects on energy consumption at 95% confidence level, while one factor (TA) had no significant effect.The order of influence and the optimal combination of the four factors to minimize the energy consumed during base cutting were determined.Abstract. Previous studies on contra-rotating basecutter designs based on supported cutting have mainly focused on the base cutting energy consumption for single sugarcane stalks instead of sugarcane stools. However, in the actual base cutting process, a basecutter typically cuts multiple sugarcane stalks (in one sugarcane stool) simultaneously. Therefore, this study investigated how the rotational speed (RS) and tilt angle (TA) of the cutting discs, the sugarcane stool diameter (SD), and the feed rate (FR) affected the energy consumed when cutting cane stools using a contra-rotating cutting platform. Four single-factor experiments and an orthogonal experiment were performed using a Taguchi orthogonal experimental design, and each group was replicated five times. The results of the single-factor experiments showed that the energy consumption was proportional to RS and SD, while it was negatively correlated with TA and FR. The significance of the difference between each pair of levels of each factor was investigated using Duncan’s multiple range test. According to the results of the orthogonal experiment, RS, SD, and FR had significant influences on the base cutting energy consumption at the 95% confidence level; however, TA had no significant influence. The order of influence of the four factors was SD > FR > RS > TA (18.45 > 18.39 > 12.91 > 9.06), and the optimal factor-level combination for minimizing the cutting energy was RS2, TA4, SD1, and FR3 (200 rpm disc RS, 20° disc TA, 60 mm SD, and 1.0 m s-1 FR). An understanding of the relationships between energy consumption and its influencing factors can serve as a valuable reference for researchers seeking to optimize the design of contra-rotating basecutters, which could lead to increased energy efficiency and a reduction in energy consumption during sugarcane harvesting.

本研究关注的是甘蔗粪便而不是单茎的基础切割能耗,因此与实际的田间收获更加一致。能量消耗随转速(RS)和粪便直径(SD)的增加而增加,随倾角(TA)和进料速率(FR)的增加而降低。采用Duncan多重极差检验比较各因子的每对水平。三个因素(RS、SD和FR)在95%置信水平上对能量消耗有显著影响,而一个因素(TA)没有显著影响。确定了四种影响因素的影响顺序,并确定了四种影响因素的最优组合,以最大限度地降低基切能耗。以往对基于支撑切割的对转切基机设计的研究主要集中在甘蔗单茎切基能耗上,而不是甘蔗粪便的切基能耗。然而,在实际的切基过程中,一个切基机通常同时切多根甘蔗茎(在一个甘蔗凳上)。因此,本研究研究了使用对转切割平台切割甘蔗凳时,切割盘的转速(RS)和倾角(TA)、甘蔗凳直径(SD)和进给速率(FR)对能量消耗的影响。采用田口正交试验设计,进行4个单因素试验和1个正交试验,每组重复5次。单因素实验结果显示,能量消耗与RS和SD成正比,与TA和FR呈负相关。采用Duncan 's多元极差检验考察各因素每对水平之间差异的显著性。正交试验结果显示,在95%置信水平下,RS、SD和FR对基材切削能耗有显著影响;而TA对其影响不显著。4个因素的影响顺序为SD > FR > RS > TA(18.45 > 18.39 > 12.91 > 9.06),最小切削能量的最佳因子水平组合为RS2、TA4、SD1和FR3 (200 rpm圆盘RS、20°圆盘TA、60 mm SD和1.0 m s-1 FR)。了解能量消耗及其影响因素之间的关系可以为研究人员寻求优化对旋转基切机的设计提供有价值的参考,这可能导致提高能源效率并减少甘蔗收获过程中的能量消耗。关键词:对转切基机,能耗,正交试验,单因素试验,甘蔗凳,支撑切割

HighlightsNitrous oxide and methane emissions were measured from a commercial beef feedyard following large rainfall events.Nitrous oxide emissions dropped below detection levels for ten days following a 77 mm rainfall event.Daily N2O and CH4 emissions followed a diel pattern, peaking at manure temperatures of 36°C to 38°C.Results will be used to refine empirical models for predicting GHG emissions from open-lot feedyards.Abstract. More than six million beef cattle are fed annually in feedyards on the semiarid Southern Great Plains (SGP). Manure deposited on the open-lot pen surfaces contributes to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) are GHGs linked to climate change, and both have global warming potentials greater than carbon dioxide (CO2). Two sampling campaigns were conducted in 2019 to quantify N2O and CH4 emissions from open-lot pen surfaces. The occurrence of large, unforecast rainfall events during both campaigns provided an opportunity to compare GHG emissions from the dry manure before rainfall and from the wetted pen surface for one to two weeks following precipitation. Temporal variability was quantified by continuous sampling using six to eight automated flux chambers, a multiplexer system, and real-time analyzers. Spatial variability was quantified using a recirculating portable chamber on a 5 × 8 grid. Nitrous oxide emissions dropped below detection levels for ten days after the precipitation event. Nitrous oxide emissions were related to nitrification or other aerobic processes. Methane emissions dropped below detection levels for five days after the precipitation event and then increased to pre-rainfall levels by day 8. When present, N2O and CH4 emissions followed a diel pattern, with the highest emissions occurring during the afternoon when manure pack temperatures at the 25 mm depth were 36°C to 38°C and ambient temperatures were 31°C to 32°C. Average CH4 emissions from the feedyard pen surface were 96-fold lower than estimated enteric CH4 emissions. The results of this field research will be used to refine empirical models for predicting annual N2O and CH4 emissions from open-lot beef cattle feedyards on the semiarid SGP.

在大降雨事件发生后,测量了商业牛肉饲养场的氧化亚氮和甲烷排放量。在一场77毫米的降雨后,一氧化二氮的排放量连续10天低于检测水平。日N2O和CH4排放量呈日增模式,在粪便温度为36 ~ 38℃时达到峰值。研究结果将用于改进预测露天饲料场温室气体排放的经验模型。在半干旱的南部大平原(SGP),每年有600多万头肉牛被饲养在饲养场里。露天猪圈表面的粪便会导致温室气体排放。一氧化二氮(N2O)和甲烷(CH4)是与气候变化有关的温室气体,两者的全球变暖潜能值都大于二氧化碳(CO2)。2019年进行了两次采样活动,以量化露天围栏表面的N2O和CH4排放。在这两次运动期间,发生了大规模的、不可预测的降雨事件,这为比较降雨前干粪肥和降雨后一至两周内湿润的围栏表面的温室气体排放提供了机会。通过使用6至8个自动通量室、多路复用系统和实时分析仪进行连续采样,对时间变异性进行量化。在5 × 8网格上使用循环便携室对空间变异性进行量化。在降水事件发生后的10天内,一氧化二氮的排放量降至检测水平以下。氧化亚氮的排放与硝化或其他有氧过程有关。降水事件发生后第5天,甲烷排放量降至探测水平以下,第8天又回升至降雨前水平。当存在时,N2O和CH4的排放呈日增模式,在25 mm深度的粪堆温度为36°C至38°C,环境温度为31°C至32°C的下午排放最高。饲料场围栏表面的平均CH4排放量比估计的肠道CH4排放量低96倍。本研究结果将用于改进半干旱SGP上露天肉牛饲养场N2O和CH4年排放预测的经验模型。关键词:肉牛,通量室,温室气体,粪便,氧化亚氮,降雨

HighlightsThe effects of potash fertilizer and straw returning on a banana orchard were studied by field experiment.Fertilizer with straw was more conductive to potassium nutrient balance and improved banana yield and quality.The economic benefits of straw replacing different amounts of potassium fertilizer were compared.Abstract. To explore the effects of potash fertilizer and straw returning in banana production, a field experiment was carried out, and four treatments were set up: NP fertilizer (NP), NP fertilizer and banana straw (NP+St), NPK fertilizer (NPK), and NPK fertilizer and banana straw (NPK+St). Through the soil potassium balance, the effects of potash fertilizer and straw returning on the yield, quality, and economic benefits of bananas were studied. The results showed that the application of potash fertilizer and straw could improve banana yields. Compared with the NP treatment, the banana yields of the NP+St, NPK, and NPK+St treatments increased by 17.5%, 50.5%, and 71.6%, respectively. The order of banana yield, potassium balance coefficient, and nutrient accumulation was NPK+St > NP+St > NPK > NP. The NPK+St treatment also improved the recovery rate and agronomic utilization rate of potash fertilizer, which were higher than that of potassium application without straw (NPK) and straw application without potassium (NP+St). Potassium application with straw improved the banana yield, increased the total accumulation of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, and improved the efficiency of potash fertilizer uptake by the crop. Therefore, this study demonstrates the importance of straw for maintaining the soil potassium balance in banana production. The input cost of potassium fertilizer was reduced, and the resource utilization of banana straw was realized by straw returning, which can be promoted in local agricultural production.

通过田间试验,研究了钾肥与秸秆还田对香蕉果园生长的影响。秸秆肥更有利于钾养分平衡,提高香蕉产量和品质。比较了秸秆替代不同钾肥用量的经济效益。为探讨钾肥与秸秆还田对香蕉生产的影响,进行了田间试验,设置了4种处理:NP肥(NP)、NP肥与香蕉秸秆(NP+St)、NPK肥(NPK)、NPK肥与香蕉秸秆(NPK+St)。通过土壤钾平衡,研究了钾肥和秸秆还田对香蕉产量、品质和经济效益的影响。结果表明,施用钾肥和秸秆能提高香蕉产量。与NP处理相比,NP+St、NPK和NPK+St处理的香蕉产量分别提高了17.5%、50.5%和71.6%。香蕉产量、钾平衡系数和养分积累顺序为NPK+St > NP+St > NPK > NP。NPK+St处理也提高了钾肥的回收率和农艺利用率,均高于秸秆不施钾(NPK)和秸秆不施钾(NP+St)。秸秆配施钾提高了香蕉产量,增加了氮、磷、钾的总积累量,提高了作物对钾肥的吸收效率。因此,本研究证明了秸秆在香蕉生产中维持土壤钾平衡的重要性。降低了钾肥投入成本,通过秸秆还田实现了香蕉秸秆的资源化利用,可在当地农业生产中推广。关键词:香蕉,施钾,钾平衡,秸秆还田,产量

To explore the effects of potash fertilizer and straw returning in banana production, a field experiment was carried out, and four treatments were set up: NP fertilizer (NP), NP fertilizer and banana straw (NP+St), NPK fertilizer (NPK), and NPK fertilizer and banana straw (NPK+St). Through the soil potassium balance, the effects of potash fertilizer and straw returning on the yield, quality, and economic benefits of bananas were studied. The results showed that the application of potash fertilizer and straw could improve banana yields. Compared with the NP treatment, the banana yields of the NP+St, NPK, and NPK+St treatments increased by 17.5%, 50.5%, and 71.6%, respectively. The order of banana yield, potassium balance coefficient, and nutrient accumulation was NPK+St > NP+St > NPK > NP. The NPK+St treatment also improved the recovery rate and agronomic utilization rate of potash fertilizer, which were higher than that of potassium application without straw (NPK) and straw application without potassium (NP+St). Potassium application with straw improved the banana yield, increased the total accumulation of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, and improved the efficiency of potash fertilizer uptake by the crop. Therefore, this study demonstrates the importance of straw for maintaining the soil potassium balance in banana production. The input cost of potassium fertilizer was reduced, and the resource utilization of banana straw was realized by straw returning, which can be promoted in local agricultural production.
