Download or read book Shrinkage Losses and Grade Changes in Wheat Stored at Kansas Bin Sites Classic Reprint written by James W. Taylor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shrinkage Losses and Grade Changes in Wheat Stored at Kansas Bin Sites The objective of this study was to determine the importance of total shrinkage and grade changes in the storage of Wheat. The average losses in the net value of Wheat from these causes during long period storage are shown to be quite small. These losses during approximately 2h months of storage in Kansas bin sites of the Commodity Credit Corporation amounted to an average of cents per bushel, assuming constant prices. About cents of the loss in value was due to shrinkage. The residual loss of o.lk cent resulted from.the combined influence of grade changes and the removal of screenings. Grade changes resulted in an increase in value of cent per bushel, and removal of screenings caused a loss of cent per bushel. Annual losses in net value averaged cent per bushel for the 2-year period. Shrinkage losses accounted for about cent of this amount for this period. These average losses were determined from an analysis of million bushels of 1952, 1953, and l95h wheat stored in 53 Government bin sites in Kansas which were emptied during the course of the survey. The total value of these losses was based upon an assumed value of $2 per bushel for No. 1 wheat and CCC discount rates for the different grades. Sales of screenings were valued at actual sales values. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Enough written by Roger Thurow and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than thirty years, humankind has known how to grow enough food to end chronic hunger worldwide. Yet while the ''Green Revolution'' succeeded in South America and Asia, it never got to Africa. More than 9 million people every year die of hunger, malnutrition, and related diseases every year - most of them in Africa and most of them children. More die of hunger in Africa than from AIDS and malaria combined. Now, an impending global food crisis threatens to make things worse. In the west we think of famine as a natural disaster, brought about by drought; or as the legacy of brutal dictators. But in this powerful investigative narrative, Thurow & Kilman show exactly how, in the past few decades, American, British, and European policies conspired to keep Africa hungry and unable to feed itself. As a new generation of activists work to keep famine from spreading, Enough is essential reading on a humanitarian issue of utmost urgency.
Download or read book Good Economics for Hard Times written by Abhijit V. Banerjee and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The winners of the Nobel Prize show how economics, when done right, can help us solve the thorniest social and political problems of our day. Figuring out how to deal with today's critical economic problems is perhaps the great challenge of our time. Much greater than space travel or perhaps even the next revolutionary medical breakthrough, what is at stake is the whole idea of the good life as we have known it. Immigration and inequality, globalization and technological disruption, slowing growth and accelerating climate change--these are sources of great anxiety across the world, from New Delhi and Dakar to Paris and Washington, DC. The resources to address these challenges are there--what we lack are ideas that will help us jump the wall of disagreement and distrust that divides us. If we succeed, history will remember our era with gratitude; if we fail, the potential losses are incalculable. In this revolutionary book, renowned MIT economists Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo take on this challenge, building on cutting-edge research in economics explained with lucidity and grace. Original, provocative, and urgent, Good Economics for Hard Times makes a persuasive case for an intelligent interventionism and a society built on compassion and respect. It is an extraordinary achievement, one that shines a light to help us appreciate and understand our precariously balanced world.

Book excerpt: "Let us listen to the counsels of American engineers. But let us beware of American architects!" declared Le Corbusier, who like other European architects of his time believed that he saw in the work of American industrial builders a model of the way architecture should develop. It was a vision of an ideal world, a "concrete Atlantis" made up of daylight factories and grain elevators.In a book that suggests how good Modern was before it went wrong, Reyner Banham details the European discovery of this concrete Atlantis and examines a number of striking architectural instances where aspects of the International Style are anticipated by US industrial buildings.
