Abstract: On studying distribution of fogdrops made by fog machine, computer can be used to analyze the images of fogdrop micrograph and obtain statistical data. Due to the optical effects, such images tend to have brighter center and darker edge, thus affecting the accuracy of statistical results. To eliminate the uneven brightness, the authors used the method of taper brightness factor to process the images. The authors applied this method in their program to deal with the micrograph of fogdrops from fog machine experiment, and obtained a uniform average brightness of image processing and accurate results. This method can also be applied to correct similar uneven brightness of center and edge in the micrograph caused by optical effects.

Abstract: In order to improve the slow-release performance of Matrix-Based Fertilizer, ten kinds of Matrix-Based Fertilizer were made with organic and inorganic substrates. Their nitrogen releasing orders were studied by alternate leaching method in sandy pole, and the slow-release effects of ten substrates were evaluated through the parameters of Logistic equations and Unweighted Pair-Group Method Using Arithmetic Averages cluster analysis of nitrogen releasing inflection. The result showed that the dynamics of nitrogen accumulated releasing rate could be quantitatively described by four equations: the first-order Kinetics equation, Elovich equation, Parabola equation and Logistic equation. However, the imitation of Logistic equation was the best. That was to say the Logistic equation was the most practical for imitating nitrogen release mechanism of MBF. Oxidized starch and lignin were the best slow-release organic substrate and bentonite was the best inorganic one.

Abstract: It is widely acknowledged that northern arid region is agricultural production base considered as the most promising potential area. Land potential productivity (LPP) as land essential attribute is drawing increasing attention. Based on the climate data from 1967 to 1999, soil physiochemical data and maps, with the support of geographic information system (GIS), LPP was computed according to the factors such as radiation, temperature, precipitation, and soil using mechanism method. The results show that water deficiency is the main limiting factor of climatic potential productivity, because climatic potential productivity becomes one third of light-temperature potential productivity according to water correction coefficient; the distribution characteristic of LPP is influenced by many factors, which is same as distribution characteristic of landform. The value of land potential productivity in the basin valley is the highest, and the value in mountain is the lowest.

Abstract: The extension theory can be used to solve the problem of recognition of the stored-grain insects that have many different features with overlapping attributes. It is necessary to determine the objective weights of the features in the classification based on extension theory, avoiding the human factor from the traditional method of expert evaluation. Two methods for constructing the fuzzy decision matrix and the mean decision matrix were put forward. Four methods for deciding objective weights of the features, namely, the methods of maximizing deviations, standard variance between-class, criteria importance through inter-criteria correlation and the entropy, were used to classify the grain-stored insects. These four methods were applied to the two extension-theory classifiers for the stored-grain insects based on two methods for constructing standard and extensional matter-element matrices. The nine species of the stored-grain insects in the grain-storage bin were automatically recognized by the classifier based on the extension theory. The results showed that the maximizing deviation method for objective weights of features based on fuzzy decision matrix was the optimum scheme, and the correct identification ratio reached 93%.

Abstract: Polyurethane (PU) foams were successfully prepared from liquefied corn stover polyol by varying the amount of blowing agent-water. The effects of water amount on the mechanical and thermal properties of PU foams were investigated by means of universal tensile machine, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results showed that with an increase of water amount, tensile strength and elongation rate at break of the PU foams first increased and then decreased, their maximum values reached 1.87 MPa and 189.7% respectively. Furthermore, with an increase of water amount, the initial decomposition temperature decreased, glass transition temperature increased and the range of glass transition temperature expanded. The properties of PU foams can be changed by varying the amount of water.

Abstract: According to the mower continuous roll in the sloped area, the finite element model was developed based on the nonlinear finite element method, the strength analyses were performed. The force, deflection and absorbed energy were predicted and the possibility of the deformed ROPS trespassing into the clearance zone during a lateral continuous roll was also predicted. Finally, the field test was conducted to evaluate the accuracy of FE model. It shows that the results of FE model matched well with field test results. The ROPS did not intrude into the driver's survival space (Clearance Zone). The FE metod provides reliable foundation for the design of vehicle ROPS.

Abstract: In order to investigate the theoretical foundation of irrigation method for tobacco production with water saving and quality regulating, the effect of alternate partial root-zone irrigation (APRI) on leaf physiological characteristics, water use and main quality indices of flue-cured tobacco during different growth stages under two fertilization levels was studied in a pot experiment. Results showed that APRI could regulate stomatal opening, reduce stomatal conductance, transpiration rate and water consumption of flue-cured tobacco, thus APRI could reduce irrigation water and increase water use efficiency (WUE). Compared with conventional irrigation (CI), APRI treatment during different growth stages of tobacco saved irrigation water by 10.6% under lower fertilization and 7.1% under higher fertilization, respectively. APRI also increased tobacco WUE by 2.3% under lower fertilization. APRI significantly increased K, soluble sugar and protein contents and then improved the quality of flue-cured tobacco. Compared with CI, APRI increased K and protein contents by 19.9% and 7.1% under lower fertilization, and by 29.5% and 15.1% under higher fertilization. And APRI treatment during in the root extending stage increased soluble sugar content by 17.6% and reduced the nicotine content by 25.7% under lower fertilization, respectively. Thus APRI at the root extending stage was an efficient irrigation method for tobacco production with water saving and quality regulating under lower fertilization in this study.

Abstract: Remote sensing techniques can provide crop growth information economically, rapidly, and objectively on a large scale. It has been widely used to monitor crop diseases. In this study, four Landsat TM images were acquired in the Beijing areas in winter wheat at four stages of growth-erecting stage (Apr. 10, 2007), booting stage (Apr. 26, 2007), anthesis stage (May 12, 2007) and grain filling stage (May 28, 2007) in Beijing. At the first three stages, the relative canopy spectra were also measured. All these multi-temporal remotely sensed data were analyzed to detect and evaluate winter wheat rust stripe and powdery mildew diseases. If diseases occurred, the spectral reflectances of diseased crops at visible and short infrared regions decreased, and the spectral reflectances at near-infrared region increased due to the decrease of plant chlorophyll concentration, water content and leaf area index (LAI); In addition, the red edge position decreased, namely, " blue shift " and NDVI values also decreased. Moreover, an early yield prediction model was developed using the Landsat TM images acquired at the erecting and booting stages, and the yield loss due to diseases was evaluated by using the measured yield and the predicted yield.

Abstract: Geomorphy is one of the key factors that affect soil erosion in Watershed. For further study on the relationship between geomorphic development and erosion sediment yield, the process of geomorphic development and the variation of sediment yield were studied with generalized small watershed model by simulated rainfall experiment, high-precision photogrammetry and GIS technique. The results showed that the speed of sediment yield (Gt), sediment yield intensity of rainfall (Gp) and average sediment transport intensity (M) had a tendency of increase at the beginning and then decrease along with the process of geomorphic development. Variation trends of Gp and M turned from increase to decrease at critical ground fracture degree (about 32%) and critical relative watershed volume (about 65%). This critical phenomenon is very important for studying geomorphic development and sediment yield in depth. It also showed that ground fracture degree and relative watershed volume could be considered as one index of watershed development degree.

Abstract: Over the past decades in China, the situation of farmland protection was not optimistic with economic and social overall development and acceleration of urbanization process. Some problems have been existing in the work of farmland requisition- compensation that quantity and quality of compensated land is poorer than that of requisition. Farmland classification was applied to ensure the quantity and quality of supplemental farmland and to solve the problem of national food security. Take Hubei Province as an example, the results of farmland natural quality were taken as data source and established a basic database with farmland natural quality index and areas which were based on the representative samples by stratified sampling method. Based on that research, quantity-quality convert method of supplementary farmland was studied. Average natural quality classification index was calculated by area-weighted mean model, then, conversion index calculation model was established. Finally converted relationship table for each grades of farmland was established, which can obtain the requisition-compensation balance in provincial level. The table provided theoretical basis for strict farmland management and farmland requisition-compensation balance.

Abstract: In order to reveal the effects of soil bulk density on the soil moisture distribution and nitrogen transportation and transformation under the film hole irrigation, the indoor experiment of soil bulk density, was done and analyzed by the non-linear regression method, empirical formulas that indicates the relationship among the variable quantity and rate of soil moisture, the conversion quantity and rate of NO3--N and NH4--N, and soil bulk density, the transportation and transformation time were put forward. The results showed that correlation coefficients of empirical formulas were all bigger than 0.8200, standard errors were very small, and passed the 0.05 testing significance. So the formulas can reflect the distributing character of soil moisture and the regulation of nitrogen transportation and transformation for different soil bulk densities under the condition of film hole irrigation. This research result provides references for improving the utilization efficiency of soil moisture and nitrogen.

Abstract: Commonly in the biomass briquetting machine, hydraulic cylinder directly impulses the covering for lock and unlock in the covering mechanism for closing and unclosing. But the unlock angle was finite in this kind of scheme. The angle might impact material feeding, and hydraulic cylinder was too big, so the structure was incompactly. Against those shortcomings, a new mechanism was designed to actualize the function. The new scheme adopted crank and rocker mechanism for lock and unlock the covering. This mechanism was powered by hydraulic cylinder. The covering would be more stable when the dead point appeared. The crank and rocker mechanism was calculated with auxiliary circle, and the model for simulation was established. The requirement of mechanism motion can be realized by simulation.

Abstract: Hyperspectral imaging technology was attempted to detect rust in citrus in this study, and band ratio algorithm was proposed to overcome the adverse effects of uneven reflectance intensity due to curvature of spherical objects. First, Sheffield Index was used to determine two optimal bands (i.e. 625 nm and 717 nm), and the first ratio image was obtained by ratio transformation between them. Next, the optimal band with 625 nm and its neighbor band with 621 nm were performed to ratio transformation, and the second ratio image was obtained to build the mask. Then, the background noise of the first ratio image was removed by the mask. Finally, rust features on the surface of citrus were extracted by threshold segmentation and morphological image processing. The experimental results show that the rust in citrus can be detected with an accuracy of 92% by hyperspectral imaging technology and band ratio algorithm. This work demonstrates that band ratio algorithm was able to effectively reduce the adverse effects of uneven reflectance intensity, maximize the differences between bands, and improve the performance in detection of rust in citrus by hyperspetral imaging technology.

Abstract: To create more realistic models for morphology of plant leaves, an approach to reconstructing the 3D model of a leaf blade from images is proposed in this paper. First, feature points in the edge and midrib of the leaf blade were extracted by using a corner detection algorithm, then the 3D coordinates of feature points were calculated by matching these feature points, the matching combines epipolar constraint and Sift feature descriptor. Second, the edge and midrib of the leaf surface were fitted using B-splines curve, then delaunay triangulation algorithm was used to generate a triangulate representation for the leaf blade. Finally, texture mapping was used to the geometry model for improving the appearance. Experimental results show that the model of cucumber leaf shape, reconstructed by the presented approach, is more natural and realistic.

Abstract: To solve the control problem of micro-flow or low flow on pesticide in the course of variable rate spraying, an electromechanical flow control valve was developed with a miniature pin valve, a direct current (DC) motor, and gearset. A mathematical model of transfer function and arithmetic of fuzzy control were designed for the valve. The MATLAB simulation of the fuzzy controller and a PID controller was carried out on the electromechanical flow control valve. The results show that the fuzzy control is prior to PID control in the response speed and overshoot on this valve. Steady state errors are both within ± 3%.

Abstract: This paper is designed to study the laws of phreatic evaporation and improve the understanding to the ultimate rate and depth of phreatic evaporation. By analyzing the control conditions for establishing empirical formulae of phreatic evaporation, the calculation models for calculating the phreatic evaporation from bare land have been developed, which was based on the experimental data of phreatic evaporation on bare land at the Akesu Water Balance Experimental Station in Tarim Basin from 1990 to 1996. The results show that (1) developed calculation models are accord with the control conditions; (2) as for a given depth of groundwater table, the relation of phreatic evaporation and water surface evaporation is nonlinear and the phreatic evaporation is close to the ultimate rate when water surface evaporation reaches the infinity great; (3) the threshold of groundwater depth doesn't exist theoretically. With the reasonable construction, these models overcome the shortcomings that the phreatic evaporation is overestimated when atmosphere evaporation capacity is higher, and the phreatic evaporation increases linearly along with the water surface evaporation increases. The test results show that the calculation accuracy of the models is high and it can be applied to calculate phreatic evaporation in similar regions.

Abstract: The terrain three-dimensional visualization of Loess Plateau is a basal research for "Digital Loess Plateau", which can provide scientific information for research of soil and water conservation. From viewing three-dimensional scene directly in GIS (Geographic Information System) software, it cannot give enough information of interactive communication. To solve that problem, a new means to visualize real sense terrain was supposed in this paper. It combined terrain interpolation algorithm in GIS software with OpenGL programming based on MFC. With the example of Kangjiagou watershed, the contour line data were preceded in AutoCAD and ArcView software to create regular grid DEM (Digital Elevation Model) data of ASCII form. Drawing triangle strip according to those data, calculating the normal value of each point with weighted average model, setting lighting and material model, adding dynamic sky background, making wander scene and view in different directions successfully combined with interactive function, all these ways to make sure the real sense three-dimension visualization of the small watershed had implemented well.

Abstract: The hydrophobic enhanced biodegradable films of corn-starch, polyvinyl alcohol, epoxide-modifying polyamide (EPA), and alkyl ketene dimer (AKD) were prepared by solution casting. The dynamic contact angle and water absorption analysis show that the hydrophobility of the SP film is increased by the addition of AKD. When the content of AKD is 3.30%, the contact angle and water absorption rate of the film reaches 90° and 15.44%, respectively. EPA can improve the tensile strength obviously, while it is disadvantageous to the breaking elongation of the SP film when the content of EPA is exorbitant. X-ray diffraction indicates the compatibility between the film components is increased by the internal plasticizing effect of AKD and the crosslinking of EPA. Testing biodegradation activity shows that both St.aureus and E.coli have some biodegrading abilities on the SP films. However, the biodegradation ability of the SP films reduces with increasing of EPA content.

Abstract: The system-integration degree, system working efficiency and user interface of egg non-destructive detection system cannot meet the requirement of fast and accurate detection. A non-destructive detection system for eggs based on virtual instrument and artificial neural network was designed and evaluated. This system used Lab Windows/CVI as the system design platform and the neural network as the core-analysis module. This approach fully uses the advantages of both computer vision and acoustics non-destructive detection. This system realizes the amalgamation of multi-sensors in data collecting and processing. Three kinds of tests were conducted--the system static grading test, the system dynamic grading test and the system continuous dynamic test. The test results indicate this system was easy to use and provided a good graphical user interface. The system has good veracity (system continuous dynamic test result above 90%) and low un-detecting rate at high speed of the gearing machine (27 samples/min).

Abstract: Soil evaporation plays an important role in calculating water balance and energy balance in farmland. Soil evaporation in radish field in greenhouse was measured by Micro-lysimeter, the variation law of soil evaporation in radish field was studied, and the relationships between soil evaporation and meteorological factors, such as solar radiation, air temperature and relative humidity, were analyzed in this paper. The results showed that soil evaporation tended to decrease with days after radish sowing, accounted for 37.73%-41.71% of water consumption in the whole growth period, and there was a good exponential function relationship between soil evaporation and solar radiation, air temperature as well as relative humidity. Thus it has significant meaning to establish the optimum irrigation schedule of greenhouse radish.

Abstract: With the rapid development of economy, fossil fuels are becoming exhausted all over the world. Bioenergy plant cropping provides a promising approach for the mitigation of this energy crisis. However, bioenergy output is determined by the yield and combustion quality of bioenergy plants, which, in turn, are controlled by agronomic factors such as water, nutrient and harvest time. Related research on the factors affecting the production of bioenergy plants has seldom been systematically analyzed and reported in China. Based on the analyses of property, variety and combustion quality of bioenergy plants, and combined with recent related research results on bioenergy plants in China, this paper mainly discusses the effects of those agronomic affecting factors such as water, nutrient and harvest time on the yield and combustion quality, and the prospects for the exploration of bioenergy plants in China.

Abstract: In order to improve propolis solubility, water-soluble propolis was prepared. The influences of the type of enzyme, reaction time, reaction temperature, pH value and the mass ratio of lipase to material on propolis solubility were studied according to orthogonal experiments of lipase hydrolysis based on the single factor experiments. Antioxidant activity of water-soluble propolis was determined by α, α-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging methods, using propolis ethanolic extracts and vitamin C as references. Results from orthogonal experiments indicated that the successive order of factors affecting the propolis enzymatic solution by lipase was mass ratio of lipase to material, reaction time, pH value and reaction temperature. The optimum lipase enzymatic conditions were obtained as follows: the ratio of added lipase 11%, the reaction time 2.25 h, pH value 5.5 and the reaction temperature

Abstract: According to the measured pressure data of the four-stroke small utility gasoline engine, the cyclical variations of the maximum pressure, the crank shaft angle at the maximum pressure, the mean indicated pressure and the largest pressure rise rate were analyzed. Meanwhile, the influences of ignition advance angle, load and rotation speed on cyclical variation were also investigated. The test results show that the coefficient of cyclical variation, at the lower rotation speed and lower load, is larger than that at the full load and rated speed. Moreover, the combustion stability of the engine can be improved when the ignition advance angle is increased properly.

Abstract: The pretreatment of fruits and vegetables by high-pulsed electric field (HPEF) can increase the drying rate, improve the quality of dried product and reduce energy consumption. Through the HPEF pretreatment drying test of radishes and apples, the effects of pretreatment factors, such as pulse intensity, action time and pulse number on drying rate, were investigated. This paper analyzed the relationship between HPEF parameters and drying rate at different periods based on BP neural network of L-M training method, thus established the causation between them. The results show that the effect of pulse intensity on drying rate is more significant than the effects of action time and pulse number. The simulation model of BP neural network for pretreatment drying of radishes and apples was built and compared with the measured values. The drying rate predicted by the BP neural network is close to the measured values, so BP neural network can be used to estimate the result.

Abstract: Based on the panel data of provincial grain production in China from 1994 to 2005, the trend of Chinese provincial grain structure variation was analyzed using the index of regional grain production advantage. The study found that Chinese provincial grain production showed a centralized trend on the province level. The indexes of regional grain production advantage of the developed provinces, such as Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Zhejiang, decrease seriously, in contrast with the great rises in Liaoning and Jilin provinces. From regional perspectives, the gravity centers of grain production in China are transferring from the east to the central and northeast China. The driving forces of the variations can be attributed to three factors: benefits from grain plantation, household land scale, opportunity cost of agricultural labor. Although grain returns in eastern China are higher than that of other regions, smaller scale, higher opportunity cost and benefit of industrial crops bring negative influences to grain plantation of eastern China. Thus, it is necessary that grain production in eastern China decreases progressively.

Abstract: The cultivated land in Poyang Lake region and its surrounding area of Jiangxi province was selected for multi-suitability evaluation by introducing the niche-fitness theory and Kriging method. The means of weighted average and limiting factor models were adopted to quantitative analyze niche-fitness and restrictive factors for rice, rape, cotton and sweet potato. The result shows that the niche-fitness value in the area is higher in general with the peak value reaching 0.9824, and habitat conditions in the region can basically meet the requirements of the crops; The farmlands of rice, rape and cotton are mainly in grade 1 and 2, which account for the area of 67%. Sweet potatoes which are grade 1 and 2 account for 56.9%. In terms of niche-fitness evaluation, area of rice ranks first with the ratio amounting to 56.1%, cotton comes the next; Total phosphorus, OM, and thickness of cultivated layer are the primary niche factors which restrict land productive potential in the area. The results provided direct application in supervision of agricultural production, and promoted reasonable utilization and scientific management of farmland.

Abstract: Different land use changes will lead to different environmental effects, so that how to choose the proper conversion direction of rural residential land scientifically is an important basic issue to be settled urgently for rural residential land consolidation both in practice and in theory. This issue was discussed by comparison study using the methods of landscape indexes on six land use change scenarios simulated by CA-Markov model, which represented six types of rural residential land conversion direction. As a result, it indicated that landscape effect was not so perfect when rural residential land was converted to the cultivated land or garden plots which took place often in practice at least in Beijing mountainous areas, but if it was converted according to the result of suitability evaluation or the condition of landscape matrices surrounded, a better result could be obtained. Therefore, the common deed should be appraised prudently and carefully before the practice of the rural residential land consolidation concerning the land conversion direction.

Abstract: Integration technology of GIS, RS and GPS were used to estimate yield of winter wheat in Yuncheng of Shanxi. The results showed that the last ten days of March were the optimum time for area estimation of winter wheat. The first and second ten days of April were the best period for estimating yield. It was more effective for information of winter wheat area extraction with TM data and information of green level extraction with AVHRR. According to the amount of NDVI, winter wheat was divided into 3 types and each type of wheat had significant different yield in different region. After analyzing the features of physical geography and key data of meteorology, a synthesis model was established based on the main factors of NDVI, temperature, and humidity.

Abstract: The objectives of this paper were to coordinate the relationship of utilization and protection between urban and rural areas, and landscape and development, and to provide a good balance short cut, when the local community inhabitants determine how to choose industry behavior and protect landscape effects. Those above-mentioned aims are to be dominated by the characteristics of mountainous landscape planning in the outskirts of metropolitan, such as complex relief, special location, and demand transformation. Based on the concept of landscape coordination, basic data obtained from land use maps, TM images, topographic maps, participatory rural appraisal and field survey, were applied to design the best future landscape scenarios that carry out the coupling between landscape mosaic elements and human well-being in mountainous areas. The results show that: the future landscape scenarios emphasize the resource constraints and guide to the economic development in study site. It is in line with the past evolution of landscape patterns, and the demand for the adjustment of landscape patterns, which is suitable for the changing posture of population, rural economy, urban economy and landscape behavior. The quality adjustments of landscape scenarios focus on the connotation potential of land resources. And the relationships between the expansion of urban resident land and the reduction of rural resident land were established. The past expansion modes that were at the expense of agricultural land, in particular cultivated land, were the way from happening again. Moreover, the scales of cultivated land used as orchard land and forest land increased timely. The landscape effects of unused land are also sustained. The spatial distribution of landscape scenarios adopted the coordinating principle of subareas, in accordance with the conditions of micro-plots site. Wide valley, gentle slope or low mountains where the situations of landscape were better are oriented to the protection and natural recovery of landscape effects. Mild or heavy interference areas where the situations of landscape are sub-heathy should reconstruct the landscape pattern with the preferential protection. However, steep slope or bare soil (rock) areas where the measures of landscape effects resort to non-development is the best policy for development. The mountainous landscape planning for metropolitan outskirts must identify the evolution of the past landscape patterns to achieve the coordination among conflicts from the different interest individuals. The coordination relationship among industrial activities, landscape accessibility and ecological protection was considered as the entry point. It meets with the strategic needs of the metropolitan outskirts, which are developed into the coupling mosaic open space with the coordination between the industrial activities and landscape behavior. Under the coordination of urban and rural patterns, the research results are helpful to enrich people's awareness and understanding of the relations of industry-landscape in the metropolitan outskirts, and the multi-perspective identification is also obtained for mountainous landscape planning.

Abstract: According to the agronomic requirements for transplanting technology for the super hybrid rice, reducing seeding rate and cultivating strong seedlings and realizing fewer seedling and bigger space planting are the key to increase yield potential in mechanized transplanting of hybrid rice. In this paper, rice seedling quality and effectiveness of mechanized transplanting of precision seed drilling and sowing were studied with super hybrid rice Liangyoupeijiu. The results showed that precision seed drilling had more uniform seed distribution, better seedling mat-formed effect and seedling quality in comparison with seed broadcasting. Precision seed drilling could reduce the rate of no-seedling in hill and the rate of injured-seedling, and improve the uniformity of seedling. The percent of one and two seedling in hill after mechanized transplanting was increased. Research shows that precision seed drilling can effectively reduce the rate of no seedling in hill and improve seedling quality and mechanized transplanting quality.

Abstract: A laboratory study was conducted to investigate the effect of operating pressure on the discharge characteristics of porous pipe as micro-irrigation laterals with different specifications. Experimental results showed that emission rates for both pipes decreased drastically during the initial test stage. Exponential relationship between emission rate and operating pressure was observed within the testing pressure range of 0~70 kPa. Minimum emission rate variation coefficients were reached for both pipes within the operating pressure range of 50~60 kPa. It can be concluded that operating pressure has significant effects on emission rate and emission uniformity of porous pipe. In general, the larger diameter pipe shows better discharge characteristics than the smaller one.

Abstract: The pyrolysis of walnut shell was carried out by means of the thermogravimetric method in high pure N2 atmosphere. The influences of different heating rates (5, 10, 20 and 40 K/min) on the pyrolysis process were investigated and the pyrolysis mechanism was discussed. The results show that the non-isothermal pyrolysis process of walnut shell includes three distinct stages: dehydration, fast-pyrolysis and residue slow decomposition. The second stage in which a huge amount of released volatile components caused the distinct weight loss of walnut shell played a main role in the whole process. With the increase of heating rate, the maximum decomposition rate and its corresponding temperatures of walnut shell increase. The TG curve and the peaks in DTG curve shift to higher temperatures due to the aggravating thermal lag. The pyrolysis processes are well described by the models of Jander equation and valid for diffusion control. The activation energies range from 102.28 to 117.73 kJ/mol and the pre-exponential factors vary from 4.13 × 106 to 2.42 × 108 min-1 at different heating rates.

Abstract: The acoustic frequency technology is to treat the plant with a specific frequency sound wave. Acoustic studies have found that plants can produce low frequency sound spontaneously. With the addition of the technology, the specific frequency sounds to make a match-absorption and resonance on the target plants. Thus, the technology strengthens photosynthesis and speeds of cell split and makes plant grow and develop faster. Treated plants are blooming and bearing fruits ahead of time. Acoustic frequency technology was applied to sweet pepper, cucumber and tomato in greenhouse. Various controlled experiments were made and all results indicted that the technology could increase the output of vegetables notably, improve crops quality, strengthen the capability of disease-resistance. The yields of treated sweet pepper, cucumber and tomato were 63.05%, 67.1% and 13.2%, respectively higher than that of control group. Moreover, the incidence of treated tomato disease decreased by 6, 8, 9, 11 and 8 percentage points, respectively, including red spider, aphids, grey mold, late blight and virus disease.

Abstract: In arid and semiarid region, soil moisture is one of the key factors influencing plant growth. In this paper, the soil moisture in different land use types were investigated by auger in a small watershed in hilly and gully region of the Loess Plateau, China. The results showed that soil moisture in croplands was the highest, which was due to gentle slopes, terrace building and lower crop water requirements. The soil moisture in forestlands, shrub lands and grasslands were lower and had no significant difference between any two of them. The stepwise regression analysis showed that soil moistures was mainly influenced by slope gradient and soil stable infiltration rate. Furthermore, the soil moisture in grassland was also influenced by slope aspect and aboveground biomass. In conclusion, croplands can be built on gentle slopes (< 10°). In steep gradient, the vegetation building should emphasize the natural community conservation. The artificial vegetation including forest and bush can be built in small topographies with higher soil moisture such as the bottom of gully.

Abstract: Ultrasonic-assisted extraction of pigments from black soybean hulls was investigated. Based on the single factor experiments, the effects of different ultrasonic power, pH values and the ratios of solution to solid on the extraction yield of pigments from black soybean hulls were optimized with Response Surface Methodology (RSM). A mathematical model was established and analyzed to describe the relationships between the studied factors and the response of the total extraction yield of pigments from black soybean hulls. The optimum extraction parameters are as follows: ultrasonic power 80 W, pH1.5 and the ratio of solution to solid 30 mL/g. Under the optimum conditions, the extraction rate of pigments from black soybean hulls can reach 95.6%.

Abstract: Compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs) have been widely used in solar thermal and photovoltaic electricity generating systems due to their simple structure without any tracking system. The reflectors of a typical ideal CPC contacts the absorber at the ends of absorber, but a gap must be left between the absorber and reflectors for practical applications due to practical requirements. In this article, three common design options of CPCs were presented and the optical losses through gaps were theoretically analyzed. A comparison of gap losses for three design options of a CPC was also made. The results showed that, for CPCs with flat absorbers, the preferable design option of gaps for minimizing optical loss was to truncate the reflectors adjacent to the absorber; for CPCs with a tubular absorber, the best way was to modify the virtual absorber of ideal CPCs to accommodate the actual tubular absorber so that a gap could be produced, the next was to truncate the reflectors near the absorber.

Abstract: Estimation of land surface evapotranspiration (ET) is one of the most difficult tasks in the field of hydrology and water resources. In this study, ET in the Yellow River Delta is estimated using remote sensing techniques, which own the characteristics of high efficiency, precision, large-scale and visualization. The Yellow River Delta has a specific geographic feature and it is an important petroleum production base in China. However, the health of ecosystem in this region is just enduring severe water resources stress. Surface Energy Balance System (SEBS) model being an applicable model with good theoretic basis to estimate land surface ET with less meteorological data requirement, is used to estimate land surface ET in the Yellow River Delta on the basis of MODIS data. Results show that annual ET is single-peak distributed in month scale with a well seasonal variation. Spatially, ET in southern areas is generally greater than that in northern areas remarkably influenced by human-being activities. Results of water deficit analysis show that ET in spring and autumn is relatively higher than that in natural precipitation with greater irrigation requirement, and water supply in this period has greater importance for both agriculture and ecology development.

Abstract: With the increasing water shortage, improving water use efficiency is becoming more and more important. Reducing the transpiration of a plant is a way to reduce crop water use. Experiments were carried out. The effects of defoliation on photosynthesis, dry matter translocation, grain yield and water use efficiency (WUE) were investigated with different defoliation degrees and different soil water levels. The field experimental results show that defoliation enhanced the photosynthetic capacity of the remaining leaves. The defoliation under water deficit conditions advances dry mater translocation from the remaining leaves and the straw to the wheat grain, and the treatments of 30% and 60% defoliation increased more translocation of dry matter to the wheat grain than that of the others. The 30% and 60% defoliation treatments did not affect grain yield of the winter wheat, while the 90% defoliation under deficit conditions significantly reduced crop water use, but resulted in significant decrease of grain yield and reduced WUE. Moderate defoliation under water stress might be beneficial to crop production.

Abstract: There are the seeding cavities due to the low seeding number of super rice, which have influence on yield in rice. For solving the problem, seeding cavities of the super rice nursing tray were detected in continuous seeding process. The vision detection procedure was arranged between seeding and covering soil in rice seeding pipeline. The CCD(Charge Coupled Device) camera shot tray images continuously, and mask images were obtained which were consistent with the tray seeding cavities. The image information of storage buffer was achieved by reading program at certain time intervals. After the images were processed and analyzed, the position of seeding cavities were tracked and results were stored in seeding cavities database for re-seeding. The technology decreased cavities ratio of tray nursing seedlings and improved the seedling survival rate of super rice precision seeding.

Abstract: The livestock farm in Minhe, Shandong Province was the site of this study. Using methodology (ACM0010) approved by Executive Board (EB) of Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) under United Nation Framework Convention on Climate Change, greenhouse gas emission reduction was analyzed by improving chicken manure management on chicken farms and utilizing a biogas power generation system to supply electricity and displace electricity from a grid-based conventional energy source. The emission reduction was estimated to be 84666 t CO2 equivalent a year. The revenue from sale of electricity would be 7.67 million Yuan per year, and 5.93 million Yuan per year from sale of carbon credit. The payback period of investment would be 19.7 years if no revenue from carbon credit was included. The payback period of investment would be 6.0 years if the revenue from carbon credit was included. Therefore, construction of biogas digesters on intensive livestock farms to treat livestock manure and carry out power generation using the produced biogas can not only improve the environment, utilize renewable energy and reduce fossil fuel consumption, but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions and obtain revenue from the emission reduction. The CDM project will provide additional incentives for the livestock farms to construct biogas digesters.

Abstract: With the grid sampling method, the surface and subsurface soil moisture of hilly-sloppy lands was determinated in a subtropical soil region in winter and spring. The region includes tea land, upland and forest land. Spatial structures of the soil moisture were analyzed by geostatistics method and classical statistics method. The results showed that the soil moisture of forest land was more abundant than that of tea land and upland, the coefficient of variation of soil moisture in the entire research region was much higher than that of the single land use. The surface and subsurface soil moisture had similar trends of variation in the same season. According to autocorrelation analysis, soil moisture in the entire region had markedly different variation characteristics because of different land use types. Based on strange phenomena from seim-variogram functions, the spatial variation of soil moisture in forest-upland boundary was lower than that in the other places; on the other hand, the soil moisture in the area of tea -upland boundary had no spatial correlation at all. Sample variation was found to have an anisotropy character in the whole region. With respect to influence factors, such complex distribution of soil moisture was explained by different land use types and microtopographty in winter; however, land use was the dominant factor to the variation of soil moisture in spring. The soil moisture of the whole area except tea-upland boundary had good variable and spatial continuity. So it was advisable to apply geostatistics method to study the spatial variability of soil moisture in red hilly region.

Abstract: In order to reduce the irrigation requirements of turfgrass species and increase the utilization ratio of precipatiation in Beijing, the study focuses on the irrigation requirements of typical cool season turfgrass species under full use of precipatiation. The datasets of two cool season turfgrass species, i.e., Kentucky bluegrass and Tall fescue collected in 2003 were used to calibrate the irrigation scheduling simulation model (ISRAEG), and then the datasets of 2004 were used to validate the ISRAEG model. Finally, the ISAREG model was used to simulate the irrigation schedules for the two cool season turfgrass species in dry, normal and wet years with different maintenance levels. The results show that the value of crop coefficient for the cool season turfgrass species in the growing season is ranged in 0.5~1.0. And the irrigation quantity required for Kentucky bluegrass and Tall fescue are 432~

Abstract: In order to overcome every malpractice of the previous methods for appraising paddy rice quality, based on paddy rice mechanics rheological indexes, this paper, embarking from the sample correlation matrix, analyzes fourteen main mechanical characters of seven varieties of paddy rice by the principal component analysis method. According to more than 91.1% of the cumulative variance proportion, three new independent indexes were established, which were related to the quality of paddy rice. Principal component z1, rigidity factor; principal component z2, elasticity factor; principal component z3, viscidity factor, the principal component values of varieties were obtained. Paddy rice could be classified depending on the principal component values, and the results were similar to the classified results depending on taste quality. The results of correlation analysis between the principal component and the taste quality of paddy rice show that, PRIN1 has a closely positive correlation with the taste quality, and PRIN2 has a positive correlation with the taste quality. Regression equation between taste quality and principal component was developed by using Stepwise Regression, which could be used to predict and evaluate quality of paddy rice.

Abstract: For industrially producing traditional artificial pickled vegetables and reducing the environment pollution from the pickling liquid, the continuous useful method of pickling liquid was studied in the semi-solid-state pure-fermentation technology for low salt pickled cucumber (Cucumis Sativus L.). Pre-dehydrated cucumber with water content of 65%~70% was fermented continuously with low-salt in anaerobic fermentation equipment. For realizing reuse of brine, brine was used as ferment to process pre-fermentation combining with pure culture of lactic aid bacteria. The results showed that the ratio 18:6:2:1 of raw materials, brine, 108 cfu/mL starter and 4% salt solution was optimized condition to reuse brine and 2.24% low-salt product was obtained. The texture of products was not significantly influenced (p > 0.01) by stirring under lower intensity (< 100 r/min), and textural hardness was kept above 1209.1 N. Yield rate was up to 115.8%. The content of Vitamin E, total ascorbic acid, protein, fat, and dietary fiber was improved via comparing with traditional technology, reaching to 3.592%, 0.601 × 10-2 mg/g, 7.843 × 10-2 mg/g, 1.991% and 0.375% respectively.

Abstract: Instrument has become one of the key technologies for promoting the development of science and economy on the ground that instrument plays a very important role in collecting, monitoring, managing and controlling information. A weir is often used for measuring the runoff yield of a basin in hydrology process and soil erosion. In this study, in order to auto-monitor the sediment concentration in runoff flow, a self-designed instrument was introduced which was used for auto-sampling water from the storm runoff in a small catchment. The reliability and applicability of the instrument was validated by the simulation experiment, and the average relative error was only 0.42%. In addition, compared with traditional water sampling instruments, the self-designed instrument has a higher level of automation, is more convenient and suitable for auto-sampling water from runoff in fieldwork with unattended operation. Therefore, the self-designed instrument for auto-sampling water from storm runoff has a good application prospect.

Abstract: An aerobic fermentation test was conducted using dairy manure and cereal husk to study the optimal fermenting technical conditions. Firstly, single factor experiment was conducted on inoculation quantity of complex microbial community, moisture content, ratio of carbon to nitrogen (C/N) and dig frequency. And then, the optimal fermenting conditions were obtained through orthogonal experiments. Secondly, the complex microbial community which contained nitrogen fixation microorganism, phosphate solubilizing microorganism and potassium dissolving microorganism, were appended in the second fermentation with inoculation quantity of 1% after 15-day main fermentation. The termination time of the second fermentation was determined by measuring the quantity variations of beneficial microorganisms. The results indicated that the optimal conditions of the main fermentation could be as follows: moisture content of 65%, ratio of carbon to nitrogen of 30:1, inoculation quantity of 3.5‰ and dig frequency of one time every four days. The main and second fermentation took 15 days and 6 days respectively. Results under the optimal fermenting conditions are as follows: materials can warm up fast and maintain a long period at a high temperature; the bioorganic fertilizer has a high degree of maturity and a short fermentation cycle; the number of effective bacteria and germination index amounts to 5.2 × 109 cfu/g and 96.8%, respectively.

Abstract: The high concentration of heavy metals in wastewater sludge has limited the application of the sludge on agricultural land. Under the circumstances of high Cu content in the sludge from wastewater treatment plants in Tianjin City, the microbiological leaching experiments using ferrous sulfate and sulfur powder as the culture respectively, were performed. The results showed that Cu could be removed more efficiently using ferrous sulfate as the culture than that using sulfur powder. Using the ferrous sulfate as the culture, the effects of the dose of ferrous sulfate, sludge-inoculation ratio, pH and temperature on the removal of heavy metals were investigated. The removal efficiencies of Cu, Pb, Cr, Ni, Zn and Cd were 89%, 38%, 61%, 76%, 72% and 57%, respectively, and the corresponding residual contents in sludge were 116 mg/kg, 62.5 mg/kg, 98 mg/kg, 22 mg/kg, 174 mg/kg and 1.1 mg/kg, respectively, with

Abstract: In order to investigate the change of regional farmland water environment and its possible negative effect caused by reconstruction of water-saving in the large-scale irrigation district, the Hetao irrigation district of Inner Mongolia in the Yellow River valley for a study case was selected. Through the monitoring data of regional water and salt movement and analysis of data of many years' hydrology and groundwater in the three different scale research areas, the ANN technology (BP model and RBF model) was applied for prediction of farmland groundwater hydrology and soil water and salt movement in the three different scale research areas. Then, the movement trend of groundwater hydrology and soil water and salt contents were predicted in the Hetao Irrigation District in future different water-saving level years. Furthermore, the results of ANN model were compared with those of finite element method and hydrological budget method. As a result, the predicted results were rational and accordant. At the same time, the ANN method showed more advantage comparing with traditional method. This indicates that the ANN technology expresses prominent advantage in the prediction for the complicated system and can obtain better results. So, the ANN is suitable for regional trend estimation in the future when the influence factors are changed. Furthermore, this paper brings forward a moderate environment safety threshold about water-saving of irrigation district in the arid and soil salinization irrigation areas. This can provide instructions for macro-management and decision of reconstruction of water-saving project in the large-scale irrigation district.

Abstract: Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) has advantages in the following aspects: multi-spectra, multi-temporal and freely obtained. Using traditional classification methods, super-classification and vegetation index thresholds, based on MODIS data during the winter wheat regreening stage, the distribution of winter wheat area was investigated in this study. Meanwhile, aiming at the characteristics that most remote sensing pixels are mixed pixels, application of linear mixture modeling to unmixing the planting area of winter wheat was mainly studied. Comparing the precision of different classification methods for the planting area of winter wheat, using linear mixture modeling, the major part (98.45%) of the root-mean-square error is smaller than 0.01, the relative error is approximately 3% compared with the actual winter wheat field data, obviously superior to the precision of traditional remote sensing classification method.

Abstract: The feature extraction is a very important and difficult part for the stored-grain insect detection system based on image recognition technology. The seventeen morphological features were extracted and normalized from the binary grain-insect images. The ant colony optimization algorithm was applied to the feature extraction of the stored-grain insects, and the recognition accuracy of the z-fold cross-validation training model was acted as an important factor for the evaluation principle of the feature extraction. The algorithm extracted seven features that were composed of the optimal feature space from the 17 morphological features, such as area and perimeter. Finally, the nine species of the stored-grain insects were recognized by the support vector machine classifier, and the correct identification ratio was over 95%. The experimental results show that the feature extraction of the stored-grain insect based on ant colony optimization algorithm is practical and feasible.

Abstract: In order to reduce the mechanical damage of corn seeds in the threshing process and master the impact crushing mechanism of corn seeds, the impact crushing experiments on corn seeds of different varieties were conducted using the dropping impact test-bed. The mechanical properties of corn seeds of different moisture contents at different impact locations were analyzed. The experimental results showed that the maximum impact forces of corn seeds were reduced with the increasing of the moisture contents. The maximum impact forces of corn seeds at different impact locations were significantly different. At the same moisture content, the maximum impact force at ventral side of corn seed was the largest, the side of corn seed took the second place, and the force at the top surface of corn seed was the least. At the same impact location, the maximum impact forces of different varieties were different because of the internal structure and shape of corn seed. This research has important meanings for future research on mechanical properties and damage mechanism of corn seeds, and it is also useful for developing directional-feeding threshing.

Abstract: The values of soil erodibility K under different degradation and restoration periods were calculated by the EPIC model and the dynamic changes of soil erodibility during the process of land degradation and restoration were systematically studied. The results showed that after cultivated, soil particles developed towards coarseness and organic matter contents was decreased, while during the periods of restoration, soil erodibility was decreased with the increasing of SOM gradually. K values were closely correlated with soil phy-chemical properties, among which the organic matter content determined its erodibility fundamentally. Thus vegetation recovery and rehabilitation to improve the organic matter and promote formation of aggregates and their stability are principal countermeasures to reduce soil erodibility for the Loess Plateau.

Abstract: In order to search for a natural antioxidant applicable for oil, fraction with anti-lipid peroxidation (FTAP) was purified from Toona sinensis leaf extracts. Effects of pH value, heat treatment and storage time on the antioxidant activity of FTAP were investigated. The suitability of FTAP as an antioxidant in lard and vegetable oil was examined. Antioxidant activity was evaluated using linoleic acid peroxidation method. Macroporous resin was used for purifying FTAP. Content of flavonoids in FTAP was assayed with spectrophotometric method. Inhibition for linoleic acid peroxidation was emplied for monitoring antioxidation of FTAP at different pH values, heat treatment and storage duration. Peroxidation value was used as a criterion to assay antioxidant activity of FTAP in oil. LSA-10 was considered as optimal macroporous resin for FTAP. Anti-lipid peroxidation of FTAP could be correlated with content of flavonoids. The antioxidant activity of FTAP was maximum at pH 7 or pH 4 and remained unchanged at

Abstract: In order to obtain appropriate small spray droplet size spectra and increase spray droplet velocity, so as to improve pesticide spray deposition rate, a method to improve spray deposition rate using PWM-based (pulse width modulation, PWM) intermittent variable spray technology was discussed. Through four groups of comparative tests, the effects of three kinds of flow-rate control methods on spray droplet sizes and velocity were compared. The three flow-rate control methods are: 1)spray flow-rate control by changing pressure, 2)spray flow-rate control by PWM-based intermittent variable spray, and 3)spray flow-rate control by combining PWM-based intermittent variable spray, variety of nozzle size, and change of pressure. The study results show that not only can the flow-rate be controlled, but also suitable smaller droplet diameter spectra can be obtained and spray droplet velocity can be increased through adjusting spray duty cycle, spray pressure, and nozzle size using the method of PWM-based intermittent spray from enlarged nozzles operated at increased liquid pressure. Therefore, spray deposition rate could be improved.

Abstract: Through research on variation of wetness index over a long term, it can be under stood how the dry-humid condition has changed under global warming, to make a better assessment on agroclimatic resources and rational agroclimatic zoning. Reference crop evapotranspiration (ET0) and new wetness index (w) were both calculated and analyzed according to Penman-Monteith scheme recommended by FAO with routine meteorological data from 616 weather stations in China from 1975 to 2004. In terms of grades of wetness index from Chinese Climate Classification Criterion, China is classified into severe arid, arid, semi-arid, semi-humid and humid zones, respectively, which are compared with the demarcations from rainfall-based indices in order to reveal the similarity and difference in association with the two schemes under current global climate warming. Besides, the spatio-temporal analysis of climate wetness over the country in the past thirty years was performed. The results show that the total ET

Abstract: In order to investigate the effect of nano-platinum (Pt) on photocatalytic degradation of ethylene in the environment of cold storage by TiO2 anchored on activated carbon fibers (TiO2/ACF). The TiO2/ACF deposited Pt (TiO2/ACF-Pt) by a vacuum ion sputter in two different sputtering ways were prepared. Effects of TiO2/ACF-Pt prepared in different sputtering ways and time on the photocatalytic degradation rate of ethylene were investigated in the simulated cold storage environment for horticultural products. Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM), Field Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscope (XPS) were used to analyze the prepared TiO2/ACF-Pt. Results showed that the kinetics of photocatalytic degradation of ethylene by TiO2/ACF desoposited Pt in the simulated cold storage environment for horticultural products could be described using the pseudo first-order equation. The prepared TiO2/ACF-Pt, in the process of which Pt was initially deposited on the surface of ACF and then TiO2 was coated, would promote the activity of ethylene decomposing. When ion sputtering time was 60 seconds (Pt/Ti atomic concentration ratio was 0.112), the apparent rate constant of the reaction of TiO2/ACF-Pt was 1.16 times as much as that of TiO2/ACF. The micrographic structure of ACF was not damaged and an excessive porous structure, which was contributive to absorbing the diluted ethylene, was obtained by the way of ion sputtering Pt.

Abstract: The studies on Miscanthus spp, Phragmites australis, Pennisetum are very rare. But they distribute in a large area on the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China. These grasses have not fully utilized. In order to develop biomass utilization and provide another way for a better future, in order to provide experimental data for a more rational and efficient use of these grasses, this article mainly made the thermogravimetric annlysis of Miscanthus spp, Phragmites australis, Pennisetum, comparing rice straw. The pyrolysis characteristics were obtained using TG and DTG curves. A pyrolysis index, D, was used to describe the biomass pyrolysis characteristics. And kinetic parameters of biomass were also calculated by thermal analysis mathematic method. The results show that the pyrolysis process of these samples could be separated into four stages. Biomass have a shoulder volatilization peaks at about 563 K. The main weight loss occurs from 460 K to 673 K. The pyrolysis index D is Miscanthus spp gt; rice straw gt; Pennisetum gt; Phragmites australis. The activation energy is Miscanthus spp gt; rice straw gt; Pennisetum gt; Phragmites australis. The char yield is Miscanthus spp gt; Pennisetum gt; rice straw gt; Phragmites australis. Generally speaking, thermal stability of Miscanthus spp is relatively poor, Phragmites australis is relatively stable. The pyrolysis process can be described by second order reaction model,with the method of Coasts-Redfern, the activation energy and frequency factor of different kinds of floristic biomass were attained.

Abstract: Morphology visualization is one of the key technologies for constructing visual plants. Based on the framework of wheat morphology visualization, the 3D geometric modeling technologies of wheat organs were investigated, and the organ geometrical models were developed with characteristic architecture parameters. The model included three submodels: leaf geometry, stem geometry and wheat spike geometry submodels. The NURBS was used to simulate leaf blade and sheath, and stem geometry submodel was developed by a cylinder. The wheat spike geometry submodel was developed by means of assembling a single organ. The spike axis was simulated with a cylinder, and the spikelet was simulated with an ellipsoid and a cylinder. Based on the platform of OpenGL, the 3D morphology of organs was drawn, and the rendering models of color, texture and light were developed. By further integrating the model of topographic structure of wheat plant and the interaction among individual plants, the wheat 3D morphologies at the organ, individual and population levels were visualized on the computer. These results lay a foundation for further development of visual growth system for the wheat plant.

Abstract: Crop evapotranspiration provides scientific basis for rational irrigation and water resources allocation. In order to estimate the crop evapotranspiration accurately, two evapotranspiration variables of winter wheat were analyzed. One was estimated by Bowen ratio-energy balance equation (ETb), the other was measured by lysimeter (ETl). The results indicated that the variations of ETb were almost the same as those of ETl. Variations of ETb and ETl were single peak curves. Their values were bigger at noon, and smaller in the morning and evening, and negative at night. The diurnal variation of ETb was smaller than that of ETl Their diurnal variations were weakly negatively correlated with wind speed if the wind speed was small, but if the wind speed was big, the trend that ETl decreases with the increase of wind speed was obvious. The ETb was highly related to net solar radiation, while ETl was not obviously related to net solar radiation. Crop evapotranspiration estimated by Bowen ratio represents the diurnal variation more steadily.

Abstract: The farmland classification precision depends on the PRC(productive ratio coefficient) calculation. According to the standard of the farmland classification method in China, the PRC was calculated by the rate of the base crop yeild maximum and the appointed crop yield maximum, but, for the impacts of the different PRC calculation methods on the farmland classification precision was unknown. The PRC calculation methods' improvement is base of the national farmland classification standard. In the paper, Chongming county in Shangha was taken as a case study, the other five PRC calculation methods except for the standard method were brought out, to show the impacts on the farmland classification precision. The results show that the different PRC can increase or decrease the natural quality grade, utilization grade index on the whole, but, grade spatial distribution orders of the relative farmland were the same. In the same cropping system, the six PRC calculation methods have the same impacts on the farmland classification precision, but the farmland index based on the different PRC has the same agricultural productivity.

Abstract: In order to investigate the characteristics of air-velocity distribution in the air-velocity field of air-assisted sprayer and effect pattern of various factors, so as to discover its working principle, a simulating model of air-velocity distribution on Hardi LB-255 air-assisted sprayer was developed based on CFD technology. The relative errors of simulated results were confirmed through corresponding experiments on the same condition. Based on the model, the air-velocity distribution pattern and spray mechanism were also obtained. The simulated results show that inlet velocity has little effect on the distribution pattern, but the distance to sprayer center and nozzles has a great effect on it. The nozzles caused velocity fluctuation in simulating filed, but it is good at improving spray quality. Meanwhile, the simulated results were compared with the corresponding experimental data. The results of comparison show that the model can accurately predict air-velocity distribution pattern of LB-255 sprayer.

Abstract: Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor (ACEI) peptides were prepared from double-low rapeseed protein by pulsed ultrasonic-assisted enzymolysis. Three reaction models, which included ultrasonic pretreatment of proteinase followed by enzymolysis (UPPE), ultrasonic pretreatment of double-low rapeseed protein solution followed by enzymolysis (UPRPE) and ultrasonic-assisted enzymolysis processes during previous period (UAE), were investigated. The inhibitory activity of hydrolysate to Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme(ACE) was the index. Traditional enzymatic hydrolysis (TE) without ultrasonic treatment was conducted as a control test. Results showed that three models all had significant effects, and UPRPE was the best. The optimum parameters of UPRPE obtained by orthogonal experiments were: ultrasonic frequency 20
