The irregular shape,varying internal compositions,and uneven distributions of maize seeds can degrade the metering performance of maize seeders.This study investigates the effect of irregular maize on the performance of a high-filling-rate seed metering device using DEM.The results show that the seed...
This study investigates the effect of irregular maize on the performance of a high-filling-rate seed metering device using DEM. The results show that the seed population in the seed box formed large and small cycles of seed transport due to the disturbances caused...
The nitrogen fertilizer utilization rate of one-season maize in the study area is 35.4%. Its growing period (from May to August) coincides with when rainfall is concentrated, causing maize plants to be severely weakened by soil salinity stress due to rainwater leaching. Hence, it is recommended...
It was also shown that plants with vigorous growth and a large size absorbed AAs from the soil at a faster rate. The more AAs present in the soil, the more they accumulated in the plant. Keywords: aristolochic acid; vegetables; uptake; translocation; fate 1. Introduction Aristolochic acids ...
