Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A shortage of grain feed is a common occurrence on the farms in the San Antonio district of Texas. This results from planting an insufficient acreage of grain crops and from the fact that farmers rely too much upon Indian corn for grain production. Corn produces a relatively small yield per acre under conditions existing in this district and a complete failure of the crop often occurs. A grain crop that is more dependable than corn is urgently needed. Experiments at the San Antonio Field Station during the past eight years indicate the possibility of making grain sorghum a successful crop in that district. Grain sorghum is a much surer crop in unfavorable years than corn, and it yields fully as much feed in favorable years. The principal reason why grain sorghum has not been more extensively planted in this district is its frequent failure to produce grain, due to blasting or sterility. This blasting is caused by a small gnatlike fly, the sorghum midge. The results of the observations and experiments at San Antonio show that by using early varieties and special cultural methods sorghum can be made a dependable grain crop in spite of the midge. The points of special significance to be observed are early seeding and the use of quick-maturing varieties." -- p. 2

Download or read book Evaluating Forage Sorghum and Pearl Millet for Forage Production and Quality in the Texas High Plains written by Joshua Andrew Machicek and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As water levels in the Ogallala Aquifer continue to decline in the Texas High Plains, alternative forage crops that utilize less water must be identified to help meet the forage demands of the livestock industry in the region. The purpose of this two year study was to evaluate forage sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] and pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) Leeke] for forage production and quality. Three different harvesting regimes were implemented to evaluate forage productivity and regrowth of both crops throughout the 2016 and 2017 growing seasons. These different regimes included: three 30 day, two 45 day, and one 90 day harvest. Pearl millet and forage sorghum total dry matter production in 2016 ranged from 3.96 to 6.28 Mg DM ha−1 and 5.38 to 11.19 Mg DM ha−1 and in 2017 ranged from 6.00 to 9.87 Mg DM ha−1 and 6.53 to 15.51 Mg DM ha−1, respectively. A 90 d harvest in the Texas High Plains will maximize water use efficiency and DM production; however, some forage quality may be sacrificed.

Book excerpt: Sorghum is among the top five cereals and one of the key crops in global food security efforts. Sorghum is a resilient crop under high-stress environments, ensuring productivity and access to food when other crops fail. Scientists see the potential of sorghum as a main staple food in a future challenged by climate change. The contributors provide a comprehensive review of sorghum knowledge. The discussion covers genetic improvements, development of new hybrids, biotechnology, and physiological modifications. Production topics include water and nutrient management, rotations, and pest control. Final end uses, sorghum as a bioenergy crop, markets, and the future of sorghum are presented. IN PRESS!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Six Sigma-Modell wurde in den 80er Jahren von Motorola entwickelt. In den letzten Jahren wurde es in Amerika verstärkt als Methode zur Steigerung von Effektivität und Effizienz eingesetzt. Six Sigma - das ist ein Katalog erprobter Managementtechniken und -methoden zur Fehlerreduzierung, Produktivitätssteigerung und zur Steigerung von Gewinn und Shareholder Value. Dieses Modell soll Unternehmen helfen, die Rentabilität zu steigern, indem sie sich auf das Verhältnis zwischen Produktionsfehler, Produktionsausbeute, Zuverlässigkeit, Kosten, Gesamtstückzeit und Zeitplan konzentrieren. Die Anwendung des Six Sigma-Modells heisst für jedes Unternehmen, einen tiefgreifenden Wandel zu durchlaufen, und zwar einen Wandel, der aus einer technischen und einer kulturellen Komponente besteht. Während der Vorgängertitel "The Six Sigma Revolution" vom gleichen Autor die technische Komponente behandelt, konzentriert sich " "Making Six Sigma Last" in erster Linie auf Aspekte der Unternehmenskultur und geht folgenden Fragen nach: Wie schafft man die Voraussetzungen für die Einführung von Six Sigma? Wie erkennt man die vier Gegenargumente für eine Six Sigma-Einführung und wie überwindet man diesen Widerstand? Wie managt man Six Sigma-Systeme und -Strukturen und setzt diese erfolgreich ein?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scenes of starvation have drawn the world's attention to Africa's agricultural and environmental crisis. Some observers question whether this continent can ever hope to feed its growing population. Yet there is an overlooked food resource in sub-Saharan Africa that has vast potential: native food plants. When experts were asked to nominate African food plants for inclusion in a new book, a list of 30 species grew quickly to hundreds. All in all, Africa has more than 2,000 native grains and fruitsâ€""lost" species due for rediscovery and exploitation. This volume focuses on native cereals, including: African rice, reserved until recently as a luxury food for religious rituals. Finger millet, neglected internationally although it is a staple for millions. Fonio (acha), probably the oldest African cereal and sometimes called "hungry rice." Pearl millet, a widely used grain that still holds great untapped potential. Sorghum, with prospects for making the twenty-first century the "century of sorghum." Tef, in many ways ideal but only now enjoying budding commercial production. Other cultivated and wild grains. This readable and engaging book dispels myths, often based on Western bias, about the nutritional value, flavor, and yield of these African grains. Designed as a tool for economic development, the volume is organized with increasing levels of detail to meet the needs of both lay and professional readers. The authors present the available information on where and how each grain is grown, harvested, and processed, and they list its benefits and limitations as a food source. The authors describe "next steps" for increasing the use of each grain, outline research needs, and address issues in building commercial production. Sidebars cover such interesting points as the potential use of gene mapping and other "high-tech" agricultural techniques on these grains. This fact-filled volume will be of great interest to agricultural experts, entrepreneurs, researchers, and individuals concerned about restoring food production, environmental health, and economic opportunity in sub-Saharan Africa.

Download or read book Forage Production and Quality of Forage Sorghum and Sunnhemp Intercropped at Different Seeding Rates written by Haley M. Mosqueda and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Texas High Plains region is primarily known for grain and forage crop production for cattle feed. It is important to determine alternative crops that provide optimal nutrition to cattle and are drought and heat tolerant due to the increasing importance to improve crop water use efficiency in crops grown in the region. Forage sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is well-established in the Texas High Plains as a drought tolerant forage for cattle that often requires additional feed to provide adequate amounts of protein and other necessary nutrients for livestock. By intercropping a forage legume such as sunnhemp (Crotalaria juncea L.) with forage sorghum, crude protein may be increased. However, the optimal intercrop seeding ratio of sunnhemp to sorghum to improve crude protein content and maintain sufficient biomass is unknown. In 2020 and 2021, a field experiment was conducted using sunnhemp intercropped at three seeding rates (16.8, 33.6, and 50.4 kg ha-1) with forage sorghum at four seeding rates (0, 2.8, 5.6, and 11.2 kg ha-1) under drip irrigation. One objective of this research was to evaluate the potential for the growth of sunnhemp in a semi-arid environment such as the Texas High Plains. Another objective of this research was to determine the effects of intercropping sunnhemp with forage sorghum at different seeding rates on dry matter production and forage quality. Results from this study indicate that sunnhemp does not affect dry matter and crude protein content in a forage sorghum-sunnhemp intercrop when harvested at 50% flowering of sunnhemp.
