AN ESTIMATION OF CORN YIELD LOSSES ARISING FROM WATER SHORTAGE BY MEASURING THERMALIZED NEUTRONS

This study applied a nuclear technique based PPE Supplies on thermalized neutrons (TNs) to estimate maize yield losses arising from water shortage.Crop biomass consists of water, and light hydrogen (1H) existing in water slows down fast neutrons.Hence, TNs can be probably suitable predictors to determine crop losses.A greenhouse experiment was perf

The transmission and prevalence of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) among those employed as sex trade workers (STW) is a major public health concern.The present study describes the self-reported responses of 340 STW, at-risk for contracting HIV.The participants were recruited by selective targeting between 2009 and 2010 from within the Saskatoon
