Dry Forages: Process and techniques (OK-Net EcoFeed Practice Abstract)
To obtain the best forage quality, cutting at the correct time is important, when cellulose and lignin content is not too high. During spring, cutting early is the best option to preserve forage quality; for grasses, the correct time is beginning of heading; for leguminous plants, it is beginning of blooming. However delaying cutting increases dry matter (DM) content, which speeds up the drying process. Favourable weather conditions can reduce drying costs. Making hay decreases the moisture content to 15 % and increases dry matter (DM) to 85 %. Cutting height (Figure 2) is important for a perennial crop, affecting speed and quantity of regrowth. Generally is not recommended cutting too close to the ground, because basal buds are the slowest to refill and have low vigour.
• Spreading the grass at cutting helps to decrease drying time and minimise forage quality and quantity losses. On field crushing of stems using a conditioner, increases water loss by up to 30 % and increases DM. The drying process can be completed on the field or in drying rooms, where forage quality is highest. At the end of the drying process, the hay can be baled and stored
Initial ideals of tangent cones to Richardson varieties in the Symplectic Grassmannian
We give an explicit grobner basis for the ideal of the tangent cone at any
T-fixed point of a Richardson variety in the Symplectic Grassmannian, thus
generalizing a result of Ghorpade and Raghavan.Comment: 10 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:0909.142
ad-Nilpotent ideals of a Borel subalgebra II
We provide an explicit bijection between the ad-nilpotent ideals of a Borel
subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra g and the orbits of \check{Q}/(h+1)\check{Q}
under the Weyl group (\check{Q} being the coroot lattice and h the Coxeter
number of g). From this result we deduce in a uniform way a counting formula
for the ad-nilpotent ideals.Comment: AMS-TeX file, 9 pages; revised version. To appear in Journal of
