An Economic Assessment Of The Myanmar Rice Sector: Current Developments And Prospects, Kenneth B. Young, Gail L. Cramer, Eric J. Wailes Feb 1998

An Economic Assessment Of The Myanmar Rice Sector: Current Developments And Prospects, Kenneth B. Young, Gail L. Cramer, Eric J. Wailes

Research Reports and Research Bulletins

In this study, the Myanmar rice economy is described in the context of the current political situation and state of national economic development. The forces that are changing rice production and exports are identified; however, the rate of development involves a complex integration of government intervention and politics, as well as availability of resources. Probable scenarios for rice production and export are projected based on recent growth trends and expected infrastructure development. The Arkansas Global Rice Model is used to integrate the Myanmar rice sector with the global rice market in developing projections.

The Mercosur Rice Economy, Ralph Bierlen, Eric J. Wailes, Gail L. Cramer Jul 1997

The Mercosur Rice Economy, Ralph Bierlen, Eric J. Wailes, Gail L. Cramer

Research Reports and Research Bulletins

There has been growing interest among nations in the western hemisphere in preferential trading arrangements (Taylor et al., 1995; Schuh and Junguita, 1993). Since 1990, 33 regional agreements have been registered with the World Trade Organization — the supranational organization that sets the rules for international trade (Blandford, 1995). One of the most important of these trading arrangements is the Mercado Comun del Sur (Common Market of the South), commonly referred to by its acronym, the MERCOSUR. (See Table 1 for a definition of acronyms and technical terms.) The MERCOSUR is a customs union whose member nations are Argentina, Brazil, …

Yield, Earliness And Fiber Strength Of Blends Of Cotton (Gossypium Hirsutum L.) Cultivars, J. S. Mcconnell, F. M. Bourland, W. H. Baker, B. S. Frizzell Apr 1997

Yield, Earliness And Fiber Strength Of Blends Of Cotton (Gossypium Hirsutum L.) Cultivars, J. S. Mcconnell, F. M. Bourland, W. H. Baker, B. S. Frizzell

Research Reports and Research Bulletins

Pricing of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) has been determined primarily by fiber length and grade, which were manually determined. Implementation of the high volume instrument (HVI) cotton classing system in 1991 allowed other fiber quality parameters to be objectively and rapidly measured (Deussen, 1989). One quality parameter added to the pricing structure by the advent of HVI in determining the value of ginned lint is fiber strength (Table 1). Open-end spinning, a new technology being utilized by the textile industry, requires high-strength cotton fibers (>25 g/tex) for manufacture of yarns. As this technology becomes more widely used, cotton with …

The research reports in this publication represent one year of results; therefore, these results should not be used as a basis for long-term recommendations. Several research reports in this publication dealing with soil fertility also appear in Arkansas Soil Fertility Studies 1995 , Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series 450. This duplication is the result of the overlap in research coverage between the two series and our effort to inform Arkansas rice producers of all the research being conducted with funds from the rice check-off.

Effect Of Thidiazuron And Benzylaminopurine On In Vitro Shoot Proliferation Of Carnation (Dianthus Caryophyllus L.), Mohanjeet S. Brar, Jameel M. Al-Khayri, Gerald L. Klingaman Jan 1995

Effect Of Thidiazuron And Benzylaminopurine On In Vitro Shoot Proliferation Of Carnation (Dianthus Caryophyllus L.), Mohanjeet S. Brar, Jameel M. Al-Khayri, Gerald L. Klingaman

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Carnations (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) are among the most widely used cut flowers in the world. Tissue culture techniques offer an efficient method for the micropropagation of carnations. This study was conducted to test the effect of thidiazuron (TDZ) and benzylaminopurine (BAP), artificial cytokinins, on shoot multiplication of two carnation cultivars, Barlo II Nora and Raggio di Sole. Isolated axillary buds were cultured on Gamborg's (B-5) basal medium supplemented with 30 g/L sucrose and 8 g/L agar. The cultures were maintained at a 10-h photoperiod (40 (mu-Em2s-1) and 23°C±2C°. Number of multiple shoots produced was dependent upon the genotype and was …

Herbicide Trials On Field Crops 1991, Robert Frans, Marilyn Mcclelland, David Jordan

Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series

Herbicidal weed control is economically important for production of field crops. Field experiments are conducted annually in Arkansas to evaluate the activity of developmental ancommercial herbicides for selective control of weeds in several important crops. These experiments serve both industry and Arkansas agriculture by providing information on the selectivity of herbicides still in the developmental stage and by comparing the activity of these new herbicides with that of recommended herbicides.

Arkansas Cotton Variety And Strain Tests 1991, F. M. Bourland, J. S. Dacus

Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series

Varieties and advanced strains of cotton were evaluated in 1991 by the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station. Varieties and some advanced breeding lines were evaluated in the 1991 Arkansas Cotton Variety Test. Entries in the 1991 Commercial Cotton Strain Test included both released varieties that have not been evaluated in Arkansas and advanced breeding lines that may soon be available to producers.
