Increasing the Efficiency of Lamb Production

Opportunities for increasing lamb production efficiency include increased rate of reproduction, more efficient lamb growth to heavier market weights with a higher lean to fat ratio, improved meat quality, and a more uniform distribution of high quality lamb throughout the year

Seed Production and Resource Allocation in Three Cultivars of \u3cem\u3eAchnatherum Hymenoides\u3c/em\u3e, Nevada, USA

Plant production is partially determined by resource allocation among various organs (Monsi & Murata, 1970), however, studies on dry matter partitioning among different plant organs are scarce in general (Marceli, 1996), and lacking in Achnatherum hymenoides. This study compared dry matter production and partitioning among three commercial cultivars (Paloma, Nezpar and Rimrock) of A. hymenoides and identified growth and developmental characteristics that could indicate potential seed production. In addition, the relationship between an organ weight as a percent of total aerial plant biomass was assessed

Changes in the Sheep Industry in the United States: Making the Transition from Tradition

Object-oriented specification and design approaches, such as the UML, are used in many sectors, including information systems development. One reason for the popularity of the UML is that it has notations for many types of system and all stages of development. However, this also makes it cumbersome and semantically imprecise. This paper looks at a UML for information systems specification. It both selects from and extends the UML1.3, defining the semantics of the IS UML in B-style invariants. The paper discusses the relationship of the work both to the current UML metamodels, and to proposals for extensions to the UML
