The main of that paper is to analyze the evolution of oat production in Brazil and its relation with its foreign trade, especially considering the possible impacts that non-tariff barriers may have on the dynamics of oats imports by the brazilian economy. For that, in addition to considering the...

Process-based computer simulation models are often used as reasoning support tools to integrate the complex processes involved in the soil-plant-atmosphere system. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the performance of the SWB-Sci model as a reasoning support tool for sludge management...

This paper reports the results of experimental and model studies of the field drying process of forage composed of oats and vetches. Under Mediterranean conditions, the drying process was observed in two consecutive years. Different cutting dates, different mowers, with and without conditioners,...

World trade in feed grains (barley, corn, rye, oats, and other cereals, n.e.s.) more than tripled from 1962-85, while the number of countries participating in world trade increased 85 percent. Feed grain consumption has increased faster than production in most countries, so more countries...

This bulletin contains State-level statistics for corn (grain, silage, and forage), grain sorghum (grain, silage, and forage), oats, and barley for each of the 48 contiguous States for 1949-86. Variables include area planted, area harvested, yield per harvested acre, quantity produced, quantity...

A multicommodity, multiregional linear programming model is employed to obtain price differentials between 16 U.S. regions for corn, barley, grain sorghum, and oats. The price differentials are used to obtain loan support rates (for the 1974 crop) in each region, for each grain, so that relative...

In 1969, formula feed manufacturers utilized 23.1 percent of all the feed grains and wheat fed to livestock. Estimates of aggregate demand by the mixed feed ind.:-stry for corn, oats, barley, grain sorghum, and wheat are presented. As expected, all of the feed grains have elastic demands. Grain...
