Biomass energy crop production versus food crop production in the Caribbean

Conference Sammuels, G - Alternative Energy Sources; (United States)

The Caribbean countries have traditionally grown sugar cane, coffee and bananas as major agriculture export crops. Food crop production was sufficient in most cases for domestic consumption. In recent years powerful social and economic changes of increasing population, industrial development and higher living standards have placed pressure on local governments to provide food, clothing, shelter and energy. Energy that is mainly supplied by imported oil. Biomass, primarily as sugar cane, can provide a solution, either partial or total, to the problem. Unfortunately, the arable land area for the majority of the countries is limited. Food crop production is needed formore »« less
Energy Management and Product Sustainability Standards – A Key Link to Sustainable Supply Chains

Conference Tutterow, Vestal; Rogers, Ethan

Reducing supplier energy consumption can be critical to creating more sustainable and resilient supply chains, and can be achieved by embedding criteria for energy management systems into product sustainability standards. Manufacturers across the globe are taking steps to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and become more sustainable. Large industrial corporations rightly tout their efforts and successes. However, their upstream emissions, that is, the emissions from companies supplying components, are more difficult to address. These supplier companies are often smaller manufacturers with limited awareness or incentives to reduce emissions. Within the electronics industry, a diverse group of stakeholders is seeking tomore »« less

Monitoring, detecting, and effects of air pollutants on horticultural crops: sensitivity of genera and species

Conference Reinert, R - HortScience; (United States)

The major pollutants affecting plants are identified as ozone, PAN, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, ethylene, and fluorides. Variations in cultivar sensitivity for several species are tabulated. Growth and yield response to pollutants are also tabulated. Research needs to further understanding of the details of plant response to air pollutants are defined. 100 references, 6 tables.
Initial evaluation of some horticultural crops on eastern Kentucky mined land

Conference Hensley, D; Sparks, H; Griffith, L - Univ. Ky., Off. Eng. Serv., (Bull.); (United States)

Surface mining operations in eastern Kentucky result in new land potentially suitable for horticultural crops. Root sections of thorny blackberry cultivars (Darrow, Cheyenne, Cherokee and Comanche) were planted in unamended spoil in two separate studies. Growth and survival of all cultivars was quite good in this minimum management situation. Carpathian walnut seedlings also survived well (91.8%) and grew on unamended spoil when observed a year after planting. Further research on potential horticultural reclamation crops and cultural techniques is warranted.

Conference

The volumes contain 171 papers or abstracts of papers presented at the meeting; 113 of the papers are indexed separately. The papers are grouped under the following general topics: solar energy, livestock production, biomass energy, crop production, and food processing. Specific subjects covered include solar grain drying, crop residue combustion, space heating and ventilation of farm buildings, wind energy for agricultural applications, solar ponds, production of ethanol and methane for corn stover, anaerobic digestion of animal wastes, biogas generation, irrigation energy requirements, greenhouses, energy conservation in food processing, alternative fuel sources, and others.
