The Future Of The Organization Of The Petroleum Exporting Countries, Mikayla Gross
Honors Theses, University of Nebraska-Lincoln
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is a multinational and intergovernmental organization that dictates the petroleum exportation policies of 13 countries: Algeria, Angola, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, the Republic of the Congo, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Venezuela (About Us, 2023). The mission of OPEC is to ensure a stable supply of petroleum through its shared policies for its Member Countries and consumers (Our Mission, 2023). Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Venezuela founded OPEC in 1960 under the foundations and principles that dictated the international world order. Those foundations and principles …

Publications from USDA-ARS / UNL Faculty
Objectives: The fungal pathogen Thecaphora frezii Carranza & Lindquist causes peanut smut, a severe disease currently endemic in Argentina. To study the ecology of T. frezii and to understand the mechanisms of smut resistance in peanut plants, it is crucial to know the genetics of this pathogen. The objective of this work was to isolate the pathogen and generate the first draft genome of T. frezii that will be the basis for analyzing its potential genetic diversity and its interaction with peanut cultivars. Our research group is working to identify peanut germplasm with smut resistance and to understand the genetics …

Manure And Wastewater Sampling Guide, Rhonda Miller, Cody Zesiger, Kalen Taylor, Matt Yost
All Current Publications
Manure and wastewater are resources that can reduce your fertilizer needs and help improve soil and your bottom line. It is important that manure and wastewater be sampled and tested so one can apply the manure and nutrients appropriately. Sampling and analysis should occur as close to land application as possible as nutrient concentration in manure and wastewater can change over time due to runoff, leaching, and changes in moisture percentage. Nitrogen can also be lost due to volatilization. There are two primary approaches for when to sample: (1) just before land application, and (2) at the time of land …

Investigating The Effect Of Agronomic Factors On Microbiome Of Horticulture Produce,

Investigating The Effect Of Agronomic Factors On Microbiome Of Horticulture Produce, Maryada Bohra
ORBioM (Open Research BioSciences Meeting)
The ranged microbiome in fruits and vegetables contributes substantially to the health of vegetation which, in effect, benefits human health. These microorganisms undertake an extensive variety of responsibilities including flavour creation, ripening and health preservation via the production of second-generation metabolites. There is limited information however on the influence of agronomic practices such as crop ripening stage at harvest, storage, packing material and how they impact the microbiome of the crop itself. The overall role of the crop microbiome in gut health is also not fully clear.
The Meta-Hort project will examine the effects of premature harvesting along with tray …

Valorising Urban Organic Waste Streams Through Agrochemical Extraction And Organic Acid Production Via Cascading Biorefinery Approach, Shon Shiju Mr
ORBioM (Open Research BioSciences Meeting)
The CircBioCityWaste project is based on the vital principle of the ‘circular bioeconomy’ focusing on the sustainable, resource-efficient valorisation of anaerobic digestate, from urban waste streams (mainly, wastewater treatment plants, dairy processed sludge (DPS), food waste, and organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW)) to produce bio-based agrochemicals (biostimulants and biofertilisers) and organic acids via the cascading biorefinery concept. The project focuses on an ‘end-of-waste’ approach to producing deliverables for sustainable agriculture, promoting plant growth, and improving soil health while keeping circular bio-economy aspects in the focus. The biorefinery starts with digestate collection, characterisation, development of pre-treatment methods, and novel …
Genetic Evaluation Of Enteric Methane For Sustainable Irish Beef Cattle,

Genetic Evaluation Of Enteric Methane For Sustainable Irish Beef Cattle, Clodagh Ryan
ORBioM (Open Research BioSciences Meeting)
Background:
Globally, livestock agriculture significantly contributes to human-induced greenhouse gas emissions, particularly through methane production. A potential approach to effectively, durably, and progressively reduce enteric methane emissions at a reasonable cost is through animal breeding.
Methods:
Individual animal methane records were available from 1,508 multi-breed growing beef cattle using GreenFeed Emission Monitoring systems. The objective of this study was to derive genetic parameters for a series of definitions of enteric methane, carbon dioxide, and dry matter intake (DMI). Estimated breeding values (EBVs) were generated for nine alternative definitions of enteric methane and EBVs were validated against phenotypic performance (adjusted for …

How Much Nebraska Ag Land Is Owned By Foreign Entities?, Larry W. Van Tassell
Center for Agricultural Profitability
The Agricultural Foreign Investment Disclosure Act of 1973 (AFIDA) established a mandatory reporting system, overseen by the USDA, that requires foreign entities to provide information on all U.S. agricultural and non-agricultural land in which they hold an interest. “Interest” is reported as a fee interest (legal possession of both the surface and mineral rights), partial fee interest (must state percent ownership), life estate, trust beneficiary, purchase contract, or other. “Other” includes leases that are 10-years or longer. The regulations exempt foreign entities with interests solely in mineral rights and leases of less than 10 years in duration from reporting. In …

Do Only Americans Own America? Foreign Investment In Agricultural Lands In The United States, Larry W. Van Tassell
Center for Agricultural Profitability
Foreign investment in the United States, while not a new phenomenon, has recently caught the attention of the American public and members of the U.S. House and Senate after an Air Force officer raised concerns when the Fufeng Group, based in Shandong, China, purchased 300 acres of farmland 12 miles from an Air Force base in Grand Forks, North Dakota, to build a corn milling plant (Javers, 2022). National security concerns prompted the U.S. Senate to propose a bill prohibiting the purchase of land in the U.S. by companies or individuals from China, North Korea, Iran, or Russia.

Road Maintenance Challenges: The Greatest Obstacle To Sustainable Development In South Sudan, Gai Chol Paul
Journal of Sustainable Social Change
Road infrastructure plays a crucial role in the sustainable development of any nation. It connects communities, facilitates trade, and enables essential service delivery. However, road maintenance is one of the most significant challenges hindering sustainable development in South Sudan. The poor roads hinder economic growth, access to essential services, and social cohesion and are in dire need of repair and upkeep. Thus, I developed this qualitative multiple-case study to explore challenges that hinder road maintenance in South Sudan. I collected data through document review and semi-structured interviews with four road engineers, and then thematically analyzed the gathered data. Three themes …

Understanding Functional Benefits Of Isoleucine And Arginine On Poultry Performance And Health., Roshan Adhikari, Jason T. Lee, Keith Haydon
Proceedings of the Arkansas Nutrition Conference
Poultry industry is rapidly moving towards utilizing the best ingredients to precisely feed the birds for better performance, welfare, health, and profitability. One of the practices that evolved over time with research is better optimization of amino acid utilization in the diets thus changing the crude protein landscape. Historically, if we compare the modern diets to diets from 1980, significant changes are visible in the use of unbound or crystalline amino acids leading to reduced levels of CP and reduced unutilized nitrogen in the diets. Multiple feed-grade amino acids are available in a cost-effective manner in poultry diets. Multiple research …
