Harvesting Method

The harvest practice of combining spring wheat at a kernel-moisture content of 35% followed by drying with heated air did not adversely affect 1000-kernel weight or crude protein content. Germination and the assimilation of total phosphorus in the kernel were suppressed by this harvesting method when the kernel-moisture was more than 20%.

The effect of sulphate of ammonia a d superphosphate on the crude protein and moisture content of burnt, cut, and unburnt serrated tussock, (Nassella trichotoma (Nees.) Hack.), has been noted. Superphosphate, either alone or with sulphate of ammonia, had no effect. Sulphate of ammonia, significantly increased the moisture content and crude protein content of the weed, and cattle selectively grazed areas treated with higher rates.

Fertilizer trials with spring wheat and barley were conducted at a total of seven and nine locations, respectively, during a three-year period. Treatments consisted of three rates of N, of P and of K in all possible combinations. Although the soils varied in their chemical properties, grain yields increased with the second increment of N in some years and the crude protein content of the grain increased with the third increment in all years. Grain yields were not increased by the second increment of either P or K. Although the effects of increasing rates of N, P and K on the levels of these nutrients in plant tissue were predominantly linear, increases in N levels were of much greater magnitude than increases in either P or K levels. The results indicate that N, P and K at approximately 135, 39 and 37 kg/ha, respectively, should be generally adequate.

Rinds from home-produced and Dominion Cheddar cheese contain from 15 to 20 % of moisture, but those from unripe cheese contain up to 27 %. Salt tends to diffuse into the interior of cheese while the rind is slowly drying, but the rate of diffusion is not quantitatively proportional to the moisture content, although closely approached in cheese requiring a long period of ripening.There is an appreciable loss of fat from the rind through absorption by the bandage. The fat has a high acid value and carries the characteristic taste of the rind.Rinds have a higher crude protein content than the interior of cheese; the extent of protein breakdown is less but can be correlated with that in the interior of the cheese.Rinds contain higher calcium and phosphorus contents in the dry matter and a higher Ca/P ratio than the interior of cheese.The fibre content of rinds is negligible. The content can be gauged from a visual inspection of a sample for portions of bandage.

Variety Trials

From 1977 to 1987, variety trials were conducted at two test sites in order to determine the agronomic value of old oat varieties as compared to that of the varieties presently grown. The trial sites were located at two breeding stations of the Hankkija Plant Breeding Institute, those of Nikkilä (61° 33' N latitude) and Anttila (60° 25' N latitude). The variety trials were performed according to the methods of Partially Balanced Lattices, and the results and their summary were computed according to the Nearest Neighbour Analysis. Eleven oat varieties released by the Institute between 1921 and 1982 as well as the old native oat variety from Ylitornio and the American oat variety Wasa, released in the 1920s, were all tested simultaneously. The materials are presented in Table 1, the test environment in Table 2. The main findings are shown in Tables 3 & 4 and in Figures 1—5. The correlations between the age of the varieties and their characteristics are presented, in order of quality, in Table 5. The field experiments showed that intense progress inbreeding work is reflected as increased crop yield, shortening of the straw, improved strength of the straw, and decreased husk content. In the trials the crop yield of the newest variety, Hankkijan Vouti variety, averaged 51 per cent more than the Ylitornio land race variety. The mean improvement in these properties achieved in 1921—-1982by means of breeding work was: an increase in crop yield of approximately 40 per cent; shortening of the straw by roughly 20 per cent; reduction of the tendency to lodging by about half; and lowering of the husk content by some 2 percentage points. In contrast, no constant advances could be shown for the earliness at heading or ripening, the 1 000 kernel weight, the hectolitre weight, the crude protein content or resistance to Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus (BYDV). The 1 000 kernel weight and the hectolitre weight had risen from those of the local oat variety, whereafter development ceased to occur. The study also investigated the ratio between genotype and environmental effects. In the experimental series, environmental factors had an effect on determining the time needed for ripening, the crude protein content, the length of the straw, the hectrolitre weight and crop yield that was at least five times greater than the effect of genotype. Genotype proved to have a stronger influence on the 1 000 kernel weight, for which the variance component of genotype was three fold that of the environmental component. The heritability values in the experimental series ranged from 0.19 (for BYDV infection) to 0.77 (for time to heading).

The study aims at determining the physicochemical, proximate composition and the total viable count of Staphylococcus aureus in ‘Nono’ and yoghurt samples in Kaduna, Nigeria.Three hundred and eighty-four (384) fermented milk samples (Nono and yoghurt) were obtained from different selling points and were evaluated for the occurrence of S. aureus. The physicochemical and proximate analyses (pH, total titratable acidity, moisture content, ash content, protein content, and fat content) were determined. The results of the analyses showed that Nono had pH range of 3.56-3.61, total titratable acidity: 0.71-1.72, moisture content: 82.23-83.87%, ash content: 0.30-0.31%, crude protein content: 1.50-1.61%, crude fat content: 0.35-0.38 %. For yoghurt, the pH ranged from 3.76 -3.82, total titratable acidity: 1.10 -1.15, moisture content: 77.76-80.06%, ash content: 0.68- 0.70%, crude protein content: 3.40-3.45% and crude fat content: 1.76-1.79% from all the study areas. One hundred and four of the total samples were contaminated with S. aureus. Out of the 104 isolates of S. aureus that were isolated and identified, 88 were coagulase positive S.aureus. The Microgen Staph ID kit (Oxoid) was used to further confirm the characteristics of the 60 isolates of the coagulase positive S. aureus. The kit confirmed 43 isolates as S. aureus, the results indicated the presence of S. aureus in the milk samples which is of public health importance, as this can contribute to food-borne intoxication which can lead to food poisoning. There is a need for proper pasteurisation of raw milk to help eradicate S. aureus infection before human consumption.

В исследованиях были изучены способы внесения комплексных удобрений: предпосевная обработка семян комплексным удобрением «Микромак» и двухкратное некорневое внесение препаратов «Кодима Р», «Кодафол», «Микроэл», «Страда N» на двух фонах минеральных удобрений. Внесение минеральных удобрений в дозах N40P50K70 в качестве основного удобрения способствовало повышению зерновой продуктивности на 0,29–0,66 т/га, или на 7,0–16,0% к контролю. Все изучаемые препараты — «Кодима Р», «Кодафол», «Микроэл», «Страда N» — при некорневом внесении, а также комплексное удобрение «Микромак» при обработке семян перед посевом оказывали положительное влияние на урожайность зерна озимой ржи. В вариантах с допосевной обработкой семян препаратом «Микромак» и двухкратным весенним внесением комплексного удобрения «Страда N» на фоне минеральных удобрений N40P50K70 зерновая продуктивность озимой ржи увеличилась на 0,46 т/га, а на фоне N40P50K70 + N20 + некорневая подкормка препаратом «Микроэл» — на 0,33 т/га за счёт формирования большего числа продуктивных стеблей и массы 1000 зёрен. Предпосевная обработка семян препаратом «Микромак» повысила урожайность озимой ржи в контрольном варианте на 0,31 т/га. Отмечено положительное действие данного препарата на элементы структуры урожая: увеличилось число продуктивных стеблей с 2,9 до 3,6 шт., масса 1000 зёрен выросла с 29,0 до 30,4 г. Содержание сырого протеина в зерне ржи в вариантах без обработки семян было на уровне 6,4–9,8%, а с обработкой препаратом «Микромак» — от 9,4 до 12,1%. Выход сырого протеина с урожаем зерна в данных вариантах был более высоким и составил 450–600 кг/га, что на 130–160 кг/га больше, чем в вариантах без обработки. Применение комплексных универсальных удобрений «Микроэл» и «Страда N» на фоне N40P50K70 обеспечивало дополнительный сбор сырого протеина на уровне 110 кг/га. The research tested the application of complex fertilizers such as seed treatment with “Mikromak” and double topdressing by “Kodima R”, “Kodafol”, “Mikroel”, and “Strada N” on two backgrounds of mineral nutrition. Application of N40P50K70 increased grain productivity by 0.29–0.66 t ha-1 or 7.0–16.0%. All the preparations positively affected grain yield of winter rye. “Mikromak” and “Strada N” improved grain productivity by 0.46 t ha-1 on the background of N40P50K70 while “Mikromak” and “Mikroel” — by 0.33 t ha-1 on the background of N40P50K70 + N20 due to high number of reproductive stems and 1000 kernel weight. Seed treatment by “Mikromak” improved productivity of control plants by 0.31 t ha-1. “Mikromak” positively affected the number of productive stems from 2.9 to 3.6 pcs, 1000 kernel weight increased from 29.0 to 30.4 g. Crude protein content reached 6.4–9.8% in untreated seeds and 9.4–12.1% — when using “Mikromak”. Crude protein yield amounted to 450–600 kg ha-1 under “Mikromak” application exceeding the untreated variants by 130–160 kg ha-1. Application of “Mikroel” and “Strada N” provided the increase in crude protein of 90–110 kg ha-1 on the background of N40P50K70.

In the present study effect of processing treatments viz. blanching and germination on the proximate composition of Pennisetum glaucum (pearl millet) was studied. Proximate composition was analysed by the standard methods determined according to Association of Official Analytical Chemists. Results indicated that moisture content increased significantly after processing treatments. Blanching resulted in non significant increase in ash content of pearl millet grains. The crude protein content of unprocessed pearl millet was 11.55%. The crude protein content of blanched pearl millet grains was 11.27%. Crude protein content of germinated grains was found to be 12.38% as in comparison to 11.55% in unprocessed and 11.27 in blanching treatment. Crude fat content of unprocessed (control), blanched and germinated pearl millet grains were 5.36, 5.09 and 4.55%, respectively. Fiber content increased significantly after blanching and germination processing treatments. Processing treatments not only effect the nutritional composition of pearl millet but also contribute towards enhancement of shelf life.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of supplementation of Garcinia xanthochymus extract in drinking water on the quail meat and eggs quality (fat content, protein content) and malondialdehyde (MDA) on egg yolk. This study used female quails (132 tails) aged 42 days, which were kept for 6 weeks, and then  divided into four groups treatments of drinking water, and 3 replications  each treatment.  The method used was a Completely Randomized Design (RAL) with P0 (control), P1 (pH 4), P2 (pH 3), P3 (pH 2). The variables observed were moisture content, crude fat content and crude protein content in quail meat and eggs but MDA only on yolk  eggs. The results showed a significantly  decreased (p<0.05) effect of Garcinia xanthochymus extract supplementation in drinking water on MDA levels of yolk quail eggs.  However  it had no significant effect  on moisture content, crude  fat content, and crude protein content in yolk quail eggs .  The treatments had significantly increased crude protein in meat. It  was concluded that giving extract of Garcinia Xanthochymus extract (kandis acid)  at pH 2 in drinking water decreased the MDA content  of quail egg yolks. Key words:        antioxidant,  Garcinia Xanthochymus, chemical compound of meat and egg, egg yolk MDA
