Plant Extracts; a New Rumen Moderator in Ruminant Diets

Abstract: fermantasyondan korumaktadir. Bitkisel ekstraktlar ozellikle saponin icerenler guclu antiprotozoal aktiviteye sahiptir. Rumenden protozoalarin eleminasyonu mevcut protein kaybinin onlenmesinde oldukca etkilidir. Bitkisel ekstraktlar ayrica istah acici ozellikleri nedeniyle yem tuketimini arttirmakta, performansi yukseltmekte, sindirim enzimi ve salgilarini uyarmalari nedeniyle de besin madde sindirilebilirligini iyilestirmektedirler. Bitkisel ekstraktlar nitrojeni baglamasi ve amonyak kontrolu nedeniyle daha temiz ve saglikli cevre olusumuna da katki saglamaktadir

Present Status and Future Prospects of Gladiolus Cultivation in Punjab, Pakistan

Abstract: ’un Punjab eyaletinde glayol yetistiriciliginin bugunku durumu ve gelecegi ile ilgili olarak; glayol yetistiriciligi icin potansiyel bolgelerin saptanmasi, halen bolgede gecerli olan egilimlerin irdelenmesi, glayol yetistiriciligi icin mevcut olan altyapi imkanlarinin ve glayol ureticilerinin sosyo-ekonomik durumlarinin arastirilmasi uzerinde calisilmistir. Sonuc olarak glayolun potansiyeli olan bir urun oldugu ancak ureticilerin uyguladigi yetistiricilik yontemlerinin uluslararasi standartlara uygun olmadigi, kamu ve ozel sektor kuruluslarinin glayol endustrisinin gelismesi icin ureticilere yardimci olmasi gerektigi kanaatina varilmistir

Economic and social state of water buffalo breeders in the Danamandira v illage and their problems’ solutions investigated by direct interview with farmers.

Evaluation of Drought Resistance Indicates for Yield and Its Components in Three Triticale Cultivars

Abstract: Drought is a wide-spread problem seriously influencing cereal production and quality. The development of triticale cultivars which are tolerant to drought is an objective in many breeding programmes, but so far success has been limited. This study was carried to examine differences in yield and yield components and kernel features among triticale cultivars (Tatlicak 97, Karma 2000 and MIKHAM 2002) under drought stress. Three triticale cultivars with different yield performance were grown in separate experiments under the rain fed and irrigated conditions at Eskisehir, Turkey, in 2006-2007 growing season. In the study, susceptibility index (SSI), stress tolerance index (STI), tolerance (TOL), yield index (YI), yield stability index (YSI), mean productivity (MP) and geometric mean productivity (GMP) were calculated. The best yielding cultivar under the drought stress, hence having a low susceptibility index, was Karma 2000. This cultivar may be utilized for improvement of drought resistance in triticale breeding programmes.

Drought Analysis for 2007-2008 Agricultural Year of Turkey

Abstract: Drought is among the most significant natural disasters and has severe economical, social and environmental impacts. It is somehow different from the other natural disasters since it is hard to determine exact start and end dates of drought. Drought gradually increases its severity and may keep its effects for years after the end of drought. Effects of drought is initially observed in agriculture and diffused gradually into waterrelated sectors. The recent global drought and utilization of agricultural crops for bio-fuel production has created significant problems in food supply. For instance, as a result of the drought experienced in the year of 2007, wheat production was not sufficient. Beside this, consumption increased for bio-fuel production and wheat prices in international markets increased by 3 folds. These problems observed in basic agricultural crops like maize and rice has brought forward the significance of continuous drought monitoring and analysis. In this study, the drought experienced in 2007-2008 Agricultural Year of Turkey was analyzed and contributions were tried to be made for future production activities. The drought was evaluated by using Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Percent of Normal Index (PNI) and the analyses of precipitation and temperature analysis.
