Empirical Analysis of Indian Rainfall and Rice Productivity
Abstract: AbstractThis paper presents an empirical analysis of the rice production in connection with rainfall for India. Four main parameters (area of sowing, nonmonsoon rainfall, monsoon rainfall & technological advancement) have been used for this empirical analysis. In the first model, simple relationship is developed using production & area with zero intercept. This model did not give any significant result (R2 = 0.368). In above model when we added a constant, …

Effects of seed and nitrogen with phosphorus fertilizer rates on production of lowland rice (Oryza sativa L.) in Fogera plain, North Western Ethiopia.
Abstract: Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the main cereal crop in the Fogera. However, crop yields are low due to lack of various agronomic management practices. Among these, lack of site-specific seed rate and fertilizer levels are the major limiting factors. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted at the Fogera National Rice Research and Training Center in 2019 to study the effects of seed and nitrogen with phosphorus fertilizer rates on …

Production of Ethanol from Rice Straw using Xylose Fermenting Yeast Isolates
Abstract: With increasing energy demand world-over, there is a need to develop cost effective technologies for the production of bio fuels using renewable sources such as lignocellulosic biomass. However, ethanol productivity is still low and the process is not economically viable. The major limiting factors include the complex and highly crystalline structure of lignocellulosics, low loading rate during saccharification and low amount of hexose and pentose sugars generated during saccharification. Distiller’s …
