Research Of Stress-Deformed State Of Multi-Connected Complex Shell Structures, Т.М. Маvlanov, Sh.O. Khudainazarov, B. Yalgashev, O.S. Nurova

Irrigation and Melioration

Conducting numerical experiments for complex structurally inhomogeneous structures allows us to understand the qualitative picture of the effect of various parameters in a wide range of studies and to give sound recommendations at the design stage for conducting laboratory model and field experiments. In this paper, on the basis of the classical theory of elasticity, the basic equations characterizing the stress-strain state of complex multiply connected shell structures are given and a specific problem is solved. At the same time, some of the structural elements have viscoelastic properties. When solving the problem, the behavior of the structure for the n-th …

To The Determination Of The Critical Circuit Speed Of The Sharing Drum, Kh. Kh. Igamberdiev, A.B. Mukhitdinov

Irrigation and Melioration

The article is devoted to the theoretical definition of the critical circumferential speed of the stripping drum of a kena harvester, which depends on the drum diameter, diameter and weight of the stems. It was determined from the equality of the change in the momentum of the stem during impact, i.e. from a shock impulse acting on the stem. The shock impulse is determined when the drum blade touches the stem in the process of stripping, which acts on the mass of the entire stem. The duration of the impact of the drum stripping on the stem was determined from …

An Innovative Seeder For Sowing Non-Loose Seeds Of Saxaul And Cherkez, E.T. Farmonov

Irrigation and Melioration

The main reasons for the absence of a seeder for mechanized sowing of non-loose seeds of fodder plants in deserts are analyzed in the article. The author has developed a technology for sowing non-loose seeds (saxaul and cherkez), which prevents clogging, crushing and breakage in the seeder hopper, and provides for uniform and stable sowing at a set rate and shallow depth over the entire field area without reducing the biological germination. An innovative seeder with a universal sowing unit is recommended. Field tests of the innovative seeder with the proposed universal sowing unit were conducted in February 2020, as …

Status Of Crop Diversification And Its Empirical Analysis: A Case Study Of The Republic Of Uzbekistan, A.E. Primov

Irrigation and Melioration

The main objective of this study is to determine the status and level of crop diversification among farms in the country through an empirical analysis using panel data collected in 2009-2017. In doing so, we performed the Stata-16 software using the Simpson Diversification Index model in determining the diversification index. According to the results, the highest diversification indicators were found for Samarkand, Fergana and Tashkent regions, respectively, and accounted for 0.74, 0.74 and 0.76, respectively. It can be seen that the existing farms in Tashkent region used more diversified crops than in other regions of the country. The average diversification …

The two-day event offered both a live stream and an on-demand learning opportunity for the attendees. Two keynote speakers, four live workshops, and more than 10 on-demand workshops gave attendees a variety of topics and knowledge to take back to their operations.

Diagnostic Walkabouts: Seventeen Years Of Specialized Training For Horticultural Professionals, Timothy J. Malinich, Jacqueline Kowalski, Charles Behnke

Journal of Extension

A diagnostic walkabout (DW) is an in-field diagnostic training program for professionals in the green industry (greenhouse, landscape, nursery, and turf businesses). DWs have been scheduled annually since 2002 and are easily replicable, fee-based programs that provide cost recovery. DWs also serve as a mentoring program for new Extension educators. Four generations of Extension Educators have participated. Recently, the annual program has been sponsored by state and regional trade associations. What began as an educational outreach program has become a bridge spanning Extension, trade associations, businesses, and generations of Extension educators.

Design, Fabrication And Evaluation A New Mechanism To Automatic Weight Transfer Control System On A Tractor, Javad Tarighi, Seyed Saeid Mohtasebi

Emirates Journal for Engineering Research

Increasing tractor weight during agricultural operations is one of ways to optimization the performance of tractor tires interacting with soil. One of these methods is adding weight on the front of the tractor, which leads to better engagement of front tires with soil. In four-wheel drive tractors also causes better steering wheel drive tractors, in addition it prevents from weight transfer to the rear of the tractor, which causes overturning. In this research, a new approach has been proposed that proves automatic weight transfer is possible by putting some lightweight instead of main weights on the front of the tractor. …

Managing And Buying Bulls, Department Of Primary Industries And Regional Development, Western Australia

Animal production and livestock factsheets

Weaning percentage and therefore conception rate, can significantly influence profitability in the breeder herd.

Bulls need to be managed to optimise their performance for the mating period to maximise conception rates. For producers retaining females in the breeding herd, bulls can have a significant impact on future herd productivity through the genetics they pass on.

Various tools are available to assess how a bull will perform before purchase, including visual appraisal, obtaining a bull breeding soundness examination (BBSE) and utilising estimated breeding values (EBVs).

Buy Fresh, Buy Local: Nebraska Working Together For Local Food, Margaret Milligan

Cornhusker Economics

Direct market farms in Nebraska are made up of people passionate about raising good food for their fellow Nebraskans. They grow vegetables, fruits, meat, grains, and value-added products to sell directly to consumers in their communities.

During the pandemic, these small farms have experienced restaurant sales vanishing, farmers’ market attendance de-creasing, and slots filling up at the small meat processors where they take their livestock. At the same time, there has been a renewed interest from consumers seeking reliable, transparent food produced close to home. It’s been a volatile year, and it has required quick pivoting, group coordination and action …
