Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of this book was born due to the rapid increase of the interest in excellence of agricultural production in the aspect of both – the quality of raw material for food production as well as in the aspect of environment protection. Agrophysics is a field of science that focuses on the quality of agriculture as a whole i.e. the interaction between human and environment, especially the interaction between soil, plant, atmosphere and machine. Physics with its laws, principles and rules is a good tool for description of the interactions, as well as of the results of these interactions. Some aspects of chemistry, biology and other fields of science are also taken under consideration. This interdisciplinary approach can result in holistic description of processes which should lead to improvement of the efficiency of obtaining the raw materials to ensure a sufficient amount of food, safe for human health. This book could be regarded as the contribution to this description. The reader can find some basic as well, as more particular aspects of the contemporary agriculture, starting with the soil characteristics and treatment, plant growth and agricultural products’ properties and processing.

Download or read book Cereal Grain Quality written by R. Henry and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cereal uses range from human food and beverages to animal feeds and industrial products. It is human food and beverages which are the predominant uses covered in this book, since the nutritional quality of cereals for animal feed is described in other publications on animal nutrition, and industrial products are a relatively minor use of cereals. Cereals are the main components of human diets and are crucial to human survival. Three species, wheat, rice and maize, account for the bulk of human food. Barley is the major raw material for beer production and ranks fourth in world production. Other species such as sorghum are regionally important. This book covers all the major cereal species: wheat, rice, maize, barley, sorghum, millet, oats, rye and triticale. Specific chapters have been devoted to a description of the major end-uses of each of the species and to definition of the qualities required for each of their end uses. The functional and nutritional quality of cereals determines their suitability for specific purposes and may limit the quality of the end product, influencing greatly the commercial value of grain. An under standing of the factors that determine grain quality is thus important in the maintenance of efficient and sustainable agricultural and food production. The biochemical constituents of the grain that determine quality have been described in chapters on proteins, carbohydrates and other components. An understanding of the relationships between grain composition and quality is important in selecting grain for specific uses.
Download or read book Global Wheat Production written by Shah Fahad and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-08-16 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global wheat consumption in the 2016/2017 season is forecasted to reach a record high 736m tonnes, showing a growth of 25% in the last 15 years. This raises the question which outlets the wheat is going into, what the growth of these outlets is, which regions or countries have grown the most, and where do we see future potential. Strong competition of other feed grains like corn is expected to slow the growth of wheat used for feed in the next years, and in the future, companies involved in the grain supply chain and feeding industry will need to be flexible enough to continue to meet this fast-changing demand for feed grains. For feed producers, this means they need to be able to access supplies of different grains from different origins to allow for the cheapest composition of their feed, while grain suppliers need to be able to continuously best engage with global trading opportunities to originate grains in various regions and move them to demand regions as cost-effectively as possible.

Download or read book Safe Storage Guidelines for Rye and Canola written by Sathya Gunasekaran and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada produces 0.32 million tonnes of rye and 6.9 million tonnes of canola annually. Moisture content and storage temperature are the two major physical factors that influence the deterioration of grain after harvest. The objectives of this work were to determine the rate of deterioration of rye and canola (sometimes referred to as grains) at various moisture and temperature conditions; and to develop safe storage guidelines. Rye and canola with different initial moisture contents (10.0, 12.5, 15.0, and 17.5% (wet basis, wb) for rye and 7.5, 10.0, 12.5 and 15.0% (wb) for canola) were stored at four different temperatures (10, 20, 30 and 40oC) for 16 weeks. Germination, moisture content and appearance of visible mould were measured every week; fatty acid values were measured once every two weeks; and invisible moulds were identified once every four weeks. Moisture content, temperature and storage period had significant effects on germination rate of both the grains (a=0.05). Germination rate of the 17.5% moisture content rye samples and 15.0% moisture content canola samples stored at 40oC reached 0% during the 5th and 4th week, respectively. But it remained above 80% for the lowest moisture samples (10.0% for rye and 7.5% for canola) stored at 10oC even after the 16th week. Moisture content of the samples stored at 10oC increased slightly over time and there were no significant changes in the moisture contents of the samples stored at 20oC. But that of the samples stored at 30oC reached 10.0-13.0% (rye) and 5.0-7.0% (canola); and at 40oC, it decreased to 5.0-6.0% (rye) and 2.0-4.0% (canola) by the 16th week of the study. High moisture samples lost moisture rapidly with increased storage temperature and time. The visible mould stafted appearing during the first week of storage in the high moisture samples (15 and 17.5% for rye; and 12.5 and 15% for canola) stored at 40oC. Appearance of visible mould increased with increasing moisture content and storage temperature. All the samples stored at 40oC showed visible mould irrespective of the moisture content, similarly all the highest moisture samples (17.5% for rye and 15.0% for canola) also showed visible mould regardless of the storage temperature. Aspergillus and Penicillium species occurred predominantly in both the grains throughout the study. Initially, the fatty acid values (FAV) of rye and canola samples were 14.74 +- 1.3 and 22.05 +- 1.5 mg KOH/100 g of dry grain, respectively. The values increased with increasing temperature and time. At the end, the FAV of the 17.5% moisture content rye samples stored at 40oC, had increased to the maximum of 42 mg KOH/100 g of dry grain and that of the 15.0% moisture content canola samples stored at 30oC was 590 mg KOH/100 g of dry grain by the 4th week. Moisture content, storage temperature and time had significant effects on the FAV of both the grains. Rye with

Book excerpt: Grain Storage was first published in 1969. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. The deterioration or spoilage of stored grain is a problem of serious dimension, both from the standpoint of the financial balance sheet of those engaged in commercial grain enterprises and as a formidable factor in the worldwide fight against hunger. In this useful book the authors present practical information, in non-technical language, about the causes and methods of preventing the deterioration of stored grains and seeds. The emphasis is on the role of fungi but material also is included on problems with insects, mites, and rodents in connection with grain storage. The fungi are of prime importance since not until recently have they been recognized as a major cause of loss of quality in grains and seeds. Even today many of those who deal with grains, from warehouses to management personnel, fail to realize that fungi may play a decisive role in their operations. The book will be of special interest and value to grain merchants and processors, grain elevator managers and operators, grain inspectors, agronomists and agricultural economists concerned with crop production, and many others in agricultural or food processing fields.
