Seed removal

Nonchemical or traditional practices, such as weed seed removal, optimal crop seeding rates, crop selection, enhanced crop competitiveness, crop rotation, and mechanical weed control are all important components of an effective weed management program (458,459). In the context of modern intensive chemical herbicide appHcation, nonchemical practices may even represent an innovative approach to weed management and should receive careful consideration. 

The efficiency of the vegetable matter (burr and seeds) removal mechanism depends on the carefiil maintenance of settings and speeds and the level of drying of the scouted wool (86). The butt wastes contain wool fiber. Butt, together with fiber which has dropped beneath the card, may be carbonized and used in the woolen system.

While having received the greatest attention, cottonseed, sunflower, and soybeans are not the only oilseeds suitable for dehulling operations. There is research underway to produce a dehulled canola seed. Removing the hulls will increase the protein content and reduce the fiber content of the meal making the product more attractive for feed formulation. A variety of methods have been tested, with encouraging results, although no commercial system has yet been installed. 

Samples of papaya fruit (C. papaya, L.) were prepared by the scheme shown in Figure 1, which involves direct extraction of the fruit (7j. In a typical experiment 0.7 kg of peeled papaya fruit (seeds removed) were homogenized, extracted and concentrated to produce the sample which was subjected to HRGC and HRGC-MS analysis. 

Although there are only a few cases of the interaction between the non-se-lective MAOIs (listed in Table 32.1 , (p.l 130)) and broad bean pods, the interaction would appear to be established and is serious and potentially life-threatening. Patients should not eat young broad bean pods during treatment with any of these MAOIs, nor for a period of 2 to 3 weeks after their withdrawal. It should be noted that this prohibition does not apply to mature broad beans (the seeds) removed from their pods, which is the more common way of eating broad beans.

Fig. 4.3. Water uptake by grains of Oryzopsis holciformis after three days at different soil water contents. Seeds were arranged as a layer in soils of different initial water contents ( ). After 72 h, the water content on either side of the seed layer was determined (o—o). It can be seen from some of the curves that seeds removed water from only about 10 mm away from the layer (at 0 cm). After Dasberg, 1971 [13]...
