Abstract:
The potential impact of elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]) and future climate predicted for 2050 on wheat marketing grades and grain value was evaluated for Victoria, Australia. This evaluation was based on measured grain yield and quality from the Australian Grains FACE program and commercial grain delivery data from Victoria for five seasons (2009–13). Extrapolation of relationships derived from field experimentation under elevated [CO2] to the Victorian wheat crop indicated that 34% of grain would be downgraded by one marketing grade (range 1–62% depending on season and region) because of reduced protein concentration; and that proportions of high-protein wheat grades would reduce and proportions of lower protein grades would increase, with the largest increase in the Australian Standard White (ASW1) grade. Simulation modelling with predicted 2050 [CO2] and future climate indicated reduced wheat yields compared with 2009–13 but higher and lower grain quality depending on region. The Mallee Region was most negatively affected by climate change, with a predicted 43% yield reduction and 43% of grain downgraded by one marketing grade. Using 2016 prices, the value of Victorian wheat grain was influenced mainly by production in the different scenarios, with quality changes in different scenarios having minimal impact on grain value.

Abstract:
Late 2017, the ban on the cultivation and consumption of low tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) Cannabis sativa L. in Victoria, was lifted by the Federal Government of Australia. Its legalization presents the opportunity for Victoria to become a leading producer and distributer of these economically valuable hemp products. However, as a novel crop to Victoria, there is little information available for obtaining economically viable yields. Therefore, the objectives of this review were to firstly, develop an understanding of the environmental requirements shared by C. sativa cultivars, and what conditions promote fibre and grain yields. Secondly, it seeks to identify what farming practices have been conducted throughout Europe, Canada and China, and to explore whether these practices could be adapted to Victoria. Thirdly, the review will assist in making recommendations regarding which cultivars would be ‘potential’ candidates for commencing trials under Victorian climates so to find out the varieties that can provide high yields for fibre, grain and dual-purpose production. This review notes that Victoria shares a similar climate to central Europe, and has an ideal climate for the development of a successful hemp industry, as it has suitable lengths of daylight throughout spring and summer months and meets the precipitation requirements. This review has thus strongly suggested that the properties and attributes of European varieties of C. sativa should be further researched for site-specific cultivation in Victoria for fibre, grain and dual-purpose production in order to maximise harvest yields.

Abstract:
Grain protein data from variety evaluation trials conducted in Victoria, together with proportional cultivar deliveries, were used to estimate the influence of cultivar on the average grain protein of Victorian wheat production.Soft-grained, standard height cultivars and the semidwarf Egret were all lower in protein than the hard grained cultivars which have largely replaced them. This replacement of cultivars has resulted in an average increase in protein of 0.02% per year for the period 1972-88. Any decline in average protein of the Victorian wheat crop is thus due to non-genetic factors.

"Quantifying the ruminal degradation of nutrients in three cultivars of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) sampled during early spring and summer."

Abstract:
Context The Australian dairy industry is characterised by pasture-based feeding systems, where grazed pasture is commonly supplemented with cereal grain to increase milk production of dairy cows. Perennial ryegrass (PRG; Lolium perenne L.) is the most commonly used pasture species, with a wide range of cultivars available. However, the nutritive characteristics and the degradation of nutrients in individual PRG cultivars grown in different environments in Australia are unknown, and significant variation between cultivars may impact on supplementary nutrient requirements. Aims The objective of this experiment was to quantify the extent of ruminal degradation of nutrients in three contrasting PRG cultivars (Bealey NEA2, Trojan NEA2 and Victorian SE) harvested during early spring and summer from Gippsland, northern Victoria and south-west Victoria in Victoria, Australia. Methods Degradation parameters were determined by in situ incubation in the rumens of non-lactating, rumen-fistulated Holstein–Friesian cows for 72 h using a nylon bag technique. Key results During both seasons, Bealey NEA2 had the greatest effective degradability of crude protein and neutral detergent fibre compared with Trojan NEA2 and Victorian SE. Cultivars harvested during early spring had greater effective degradability of crude protein and neutral detergent fibre, and a greater amount of rumen degradable protein compared with cultivars harvested during summer. Cultivars harvested from Gippsland had greater crude protein and neutral detergent fibre effective degradability, as well as a greater amount of rumen degradable protein, whereas cultivars harvested from northern Victoria had a greater amount of undegraded dietary protein. Conclusions These results demonstrate that the ruminal degradation of PRG cultivars declines with increasing maturity, and that there are differences between cultivars and regions; however, differences between seasons are of a greater magnitude and are more important to consider when formulating optimal supplementary grain rations. Implications This research has positive implications for farmers who will be able to understand the degradation of nutrients in PRG, and the amounts of rumen degradable protein and undegraded dietary protein available from pasture during each season. Farmers will be able to use this information to formulate supplementary grain rations that complement the nutrients from pasture and optimise milk production.

Abstract:
NS soybean cultivars were assessed for variability of and correlations between yield components and the effect of genotype - environment interaction on yield, yield component and morphological characteristics. Experiments were carried out at Rimski Sancevi experiment field in 2009 and 2010. The following characteristics were evaluated: plant height (cm), height of first pod (cm), 1000-grain weight (g), grain yield (kg/ha) and the combined content of oil and protein in grain (%). Combined contents of oil and protein in grain soybean were determined by a non destructive method of near infrared spectroscopy on PERTEN DA 7000 (NIR/VIS Spectrophotometer). The studied characteristics varied significantly depending on genotype and year. The highest yield of 5273 kg/ha was obtained in 2009 with the genotype Victoria. Highest 1000-grain weights, 2009-2010, were achieved with the genotypes Valjevka and Victoria (149.27 g and 147.23 g). Maximum heights of first pod (19.40 cm) were recorded for the genotype Victoria, 2009-2010. Highest protein contents were obtained with the genotypes Valjevka and Victoria, 2009-2010, were and highest oil contents (21.73%) with the genotype Tea. Protein content was positively significantly correlated with 1000-grain weight and negatively significantly correlated with oil content, and negatively correlated with yield and the height of first pod. Oil content was positively correlated with the height of first pod. Thousand-grain weight was negatively highly significantly correlated with oil content in grain and negatively significantly correlated the height of first pod. The results of this study should facilitate further soybean breeding for improved seed yield and protein and oil contents.

Full text
Abstract:
Australian Wheat Board quality advisers had formed the opinion that Condor wheat (Trificum aestivum L.) grown in north-west Victoria possessed weaker dough properties than that grown in southern New South Wales, even at similar grain protein contents. Samples of commercially grown Condor wheat from north-west Victoria and southern New South Wales were collected by Australian Wheat Board field officers to objectively investigate this observation. Testing of these samples indicated Condor grown in north-west Victoria to have significantly weaker dough properties than that grown in southern New South Wales. Doughs were less tolerant to mixing in the farinograph and had reduced extensograph maximum resistance, even when there was no difference in protein content between the samples from the two regions. The reduced dough strength in the Victorian samples was associated with lower nitrogen: sulfur ratios and residue protein content and fewer rheologically important disuifide groups per 50 g of flour. These differences were presumed to have resulted from some aspect of the environment during plant growth and development.

Full text
Abstract:
Field experiments were conducted to determine the crop losses caused by ascochyta blight in different pea varieties grown in Victoria. For each variety, the reduction in yield associated with disease was determined by comparing grain yields in plots not sprayed with fungicide (disease present) and plots where the disease was controlled with fungicide sprays (no disease). There was considerable variation between pea varieties and lines in disease severity and crop losses. Individual varieties had different levels of tolerance to disease, and there were large differences between varieties in the percentage yield loss caused by the same level of disease. Disease severity was closely correlated with reductions in grain yield, and for most varieties there was a 5-6% reduction in grain yield for every 10% of stem area affected by disease (first 10 internodes on the main branch). Ascochyta blight caused substantial reductions in grain yield of all commercial pea varieties grown in Victoria but was usually most severe on the early-maturing varieties. For 15 varieties, empirical crop loss models to predict the relationship between disease severity and reduction in yield were developed. A disease survey of commercial crops was then conducted and estimates made of yield losses caused by ascochyta blight using the previously developed crop loss models. The estimated yield losses caused by ascochyta blight in commercial crops in Victoria in 1986 ranged from 3.1 to 26.4% and exceeded 15% in over three-quarters of crops surveyed. The results suggest that field pea production in Victoria is seriously retarded by ascochyta blight and that the development of effective strategies to control the disease should be given a high priority.

Full text
Abstract:
The plant growth and grain yield of crops following a pasture phase in 1:1 pasture–crop rotations were studied in southern Victoria in 2001 (wheat and canola at Hamilton, and wheat at Streatham and Gnarwarre). Both the wheat and canola crops produced high grain yields with no application of nitrogen fertiliser. In experiment 1 (at Hamilton) where the crops were dependent on nitrogen input from subterranean clover pasture, canola produced 4.1 t/ha of grain and wheat averaged 6.0 t/ha. The 3 canola cultivars (Charlton, Mystic and Surpass 400) had similar grain yields. However, for wheat, the late-maturing spring wheat cv. Kellalac and the early-maturing spring wheat cv. Silverstar produced significantly higher grain yields (6.6 and 6.3 t/ha, respectively) than the late-maturing winter cv. Brennan (5.0 t/ha). The 3 cultivars of each crop differed markedly in their major yield components. The most striking differences were those shown by Silverstar, which had the highest yield, together with Kellalac, but had lower biomass and lower leaf area index than the 2 late-maturing wheats. Silverstar compensated by having 50% more grains per head than the late-maturing Brennan. While Silverstar flowered on average 34 days earlier than the 2 other wheats, it took some 3 weeks longer to mature after anthesis. In experiment 2, the wheat crop (cv. Silverstar) produced grain yields of 5.4 t/ha over 6 different treatments, with higher grain yields at Streatham (6.1 t/ha) than at Gnarwarre (4.7 t/ha). Across the 2 sites, the grain yields following clovers reached over 5.7 t/ha, in contrast with low grain yields from the continuous crop (3.7 t/ha) and fallow/crop treatments (3.7 t/ha). Grain yields were closely related to the herbage dry matter production of previous pasture legumes, indicating a positive crop response. This may, in turn, reflect the nutrient status of the treatments, particularly the nitrogen status.

Full text
Abstract:
Wheat grain yields, dry matter production and yield components were measured in a field experiment in north-eastern Victoria over 5 seasons where lime application and deep ripping had been carried out. The soil at the site was strongly acid (pHw 5.2 at 0-1 0 cm) and had a dense hardpan at 7.5- 17.5 cm depth. Grain yields (control yields 1981-85: 1.34, 0.25, 1.64, 2.36, 2.09 t ha-1) were increased each year by both lime (31-103% range) and deep ripping (11- 41% range), but the application of some lime was necessary to obtain benefit from deep ripping. The increased grain yield was mainly due to more heads per metre of row, although head size and grain weight were also increased by lime treatment. Lime increased the dry matter yield of roots and decreased the top to root dry matter ratio. Deep ripping increased the dry matter yield of roots at depth and also reduced root distortion where the hardpan had been shattered. In a drought season, deep ripping increased grain weight. Root disease was accentuated at the higher rates of lime.

Abstract:
La present tesi doctoral té com a objectiu l’anàlisi de la commemoració televisiva de la Victòria sobre l’Alemanya nazi a la Rússia post-soviètica. En particular, l’anàlisi es centra en la retransmissió de la desfilada militar del 9 de maig a la Plaça Roja de Moscou, el gran media event de la Rússia de Putin i Medvédev, i segueix el cami encetat per Dayan i Katz en l’estudi dels grans esdeveniments mediàtics. Tal i com indica el subtítol de la tesi, aquesta anàlisi és transversal; a part de la retransmissió de l’acte central de la commemoració, també s’ocupa d’analitzar els discursos presidencials dels darrers onze anys (2000-2010), utilitzant la metodologia de la semiòtica narrativa, així com l’anàlisi de les programacions del dia 9 de maig entre 1964 i 2010 del principal canal de televisió rus, i de l’agenda temàtica dels noticiaris de les principals televisions del país del 19 d’abril al 16 de maig de 2010. L’objectiu final de la tesi és posar de manifest les diferents estratègies que fan de la commemoració de la Victòria un esdeveniment mediàtic hegemònic a la Rússia actual i com a través d’aquest esdeveniment es constitueixen les bases de la identitat de la Rússia post-soviètica que converteix els seus ciutadans en soldats de la memòria històrica de la Victòria.
This thesis aims to analyze the TV celebration of the Victory over Nazi Germany in post-Soviet Russia. In particular, the analysis focuses on the broadcast of the military parade of 9 May in Moscow’s Red Square, the great media event in Putin’s and Medvedev’s Russia, and follows the path begun by Dayan and Katz in the study of media events. As indicated in the subtitle of the thesis, this analysis is cross-sectional; in addition to the broadcast of the main event of the commemoration, it also analyzes the presidential speeches from 2000 to 2010 —using narrative semiotics methods—, the programming on 9 May of Russia’s main television channel from 1964 to 2010 and the agenda of the main television news programmes in the country from April 19 to May 16 in 2010. The goal of this thesis is to highlight the different strategies that turn the commemoration of Victory into a hegemonic media event in present Russia, and how through this event the basis of post-Soviet Russian identity is constructed, turning the Russian citizen into a soldier of the historical memory of Victory.

Abstract:
Modern concrete silos and grain elevators are a persistent source of interest and fascination for architects, industrial archaeologists, painters, photographers, and artists. The legacy of the Australian examples of the early 1900s is appreciated primarily by a popular culture that allocates value to these structures on aesthetic grounds. Several aspects of construction history associated with this early modern form of civil engineering have been less explored. In the 1920s and 1930s, concrete grain elevator stations blossomed along the railway networks of the Australian Wheat Belts, marking with their vertical presence the landscapes of many rural towns in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria, and Western Australia. The Australian reception of this industrial building type of American origin reflects the modern nation-building aspirations of State Governments of the early 1900s. The development of fast-tracked, self-climbing methods for constructing concrete silos, a technology also imported from America, illustrates the critical role of concrete in that effort of nation-building. The rural and urban proliferation of concrete silos in Australia also helped establish a confident local concrete industry that began thriving with automatic systems of movable formwork, mastering and ultimately transferring these construction methods to multi-storey buildings after WWII. Although there is an evident link between grain elevators and the historiographical propaganda of heroic modernism, that nexus should not induce to interpret old concrete silos as a vestige of modern aesthetics. As catalysts of technical and economic development in Australia, Australian wheat silos also bear important significance due to the international technology transfer and local repercussions of their fast-tracked concrete construction methods.

Abstract:
This paper will describe an “Introduction to Engineering Systems” course taught to ALL freshmen students at the Air Force Academy. Not your normal freshman mechanical engineering course, Engineering 100 (ENGR100) is a web-based, hands-on systems design course where student teams design, analyze, build and fly a rocket-powered, controllable boost-glide “concept demonstrator.” Along the way they learn (in just-in-time fashion) the fundamentals of mechanical, electrical, aeronautical, astronautical, civil and environmental engineering. The course begins with a one-lesson design exercise, followed by a discussion of the “Engineering Method” and how it compares to (and differs from) the scientific method. Next, each team is given a Statement of Work (SOW), requiring them “to design, build, and test a concept demonstrator system...to represent the configuration, launch facilities, and mission profile of a Hypersonic Orbital Global Strike System (HOGSS).” The Statement of Work is somewhat daunting to most students, so we help them proceed as engineers do: break the big problem into smaller, more manageable projects. Students learn a bit about ballistics, drag, and the power of an interactive spreadsheet, before building and launching their model rockets on our parade field to verify their predictions. On-line tutorials help them understand the importance of paying attention to balsa wood grain alignment prior to glider launch day from the field house balcony. They see the importance of servo arm and control rod placement for best mechanical advantage using in-class models and videos. They verify the stability and control of their boost glider design, both on the spreadsheet and in our “homemade” wind tunnel. On launch day they experience the thrill of victory as well as the opportunity for redesign! Each lesson is peppered with both instructional and motivational videos keyed to the daily reading assignment. Class time is used for additional demonstrations, team meetings, reinforcement of the more challenging concepts, and plenty of lab design-build-test-redesign opportunities. Student teams document their progress in a structured “Team Binder,” and present their results in several formal briefings. This course has been taught to over 3000 students the past six semesters with impressive results, validated by various imbedded assessment methods.

Abstract:
La recitación de imágenes es el arte de contar historias en verso acompañado de un accesorio visual como una pintura de pergamino o un tapiz. Numerosas prácticas de recitación de imágenes se realizaban en la India, pero sufrieron de muchas maneras durante la colonización por los británicos. La sutil censura victoriana del tema de lo erótico expresado en las narrativas religiosas (que formaban la mayor parte del género de recitación de imágenes), el borrado de la oratura como primitiva, la relegación de las prácticas de recitación de imágenes como arte popular y la división entre la imagen (objetos y accesorios de utilería que se pueden exhibir en museos) y la recitación (aspectos performativos que no se podrían musealizar fácilmente), al tiempo que llenan los museos europeos con artefactos coloniales, han infligido un gran daño a las tradiciones vivas de recitación de imágenes en la India. Mi investigación dirigida por la práctica busca descolonizar la recitación de imágenes para deshacer estos daños. Siguiendo el llamado de Walter Mignolo de desvincularse de la hegemonía occidental, busco resaltar, en lugar de las nociones europeas de belleza y estética, las teorías indias clásicas del afecto de alrededor del año 300 d.C. que pueden producir placer estético en el espectador. Por lo tanto, utilizando la teoría clásica india de Rasa y la subversión, creo narrativas contemporáneas para la recitación de imágenes utilizando hechos empíricos de la investigación científica (neurociencia, microbiología, fitoquímica y meteorología), que se complementan con accesorios visuales hechos al fusionar la estética de la pintura india en miniatura medieval, así como con la Ilustración médica contemporánea. La investigación guiada por la práctica es el único método para redimir la práctica de la recitación de imágenes, al igual que la práctica contemporánea de las neominiaturas ha rescatado el género de las pinturas en miniatura de la clasificación del kitsch oriental. Al invertir en temas eróticos y oraturas, así como al reunir imágenes y recitaciones, espero eliminar los efectos adversos de la colonización en algunos géneros de artes indias. Concretamente, mi práctica se centra en la contemporización de la poesía sánscrita erótica clásica que existe desde el año 1000 a. C., componiendo poesía erótica que incorpora la investigación científica y creando composiciones de imagen y texto como una vez se encontró en las miniaturas indias medievales. El segundo enfoque busca revivir la recitación de imágenes usando un arquetipo clásico indio de una heroína femenina que sale al encuentro de su amante desafiando graves peligros y contemporizándola con la lectura de las neurociencias. A través de la práctica, descubro mis recuerdos corporales que emergen durante la actuación y el papel de la respiración en la voz, así como la imagen, el texto, la voz y la actuación se influyen mutuamente de forma iterativa y el afecto se transfiere a través de la actuación al espectador. A través de la práctica, establezco un campo más amplio para los recién llegados, con mayor vigor y validez que simplemente repitiendo un llamado teórico a la descolonización. Se incorporará una interpretación de la recitación de imágenes dentro del video de 10 minutos de la presentación.

Abstract:
La pandemia del COVID-19 ha afectado de gran forma a los jóvenes de toda América Latina y el Caribe (ALC). Desde el año 2020, los jóvenes de ALC se han enfrentado a muchos desafíos, como tener adaptarse a entornos de aprendizaje virtuales, han sufrido experiencias de depresión y pérdidas, desempleo, entre otros, sin ninguna señal clara de alivio. Si bien las medidas sociales y de salud pública instituidas por los gobiernos fueron necesarias para frenar la transmisión del COVID-19, la mayoría de ellas no tuvieron en cuenta las necesidades de los jóvenes. Con poco apoyo, los jóvenes tuvieron que enfrentarse a la pandemia por su cuenta. A medida que avanza la respuesta a la pandemia, surgen preguntas clave para los profesionales y los gobiernos, como las siguientes: ¿Qué lecciones podemos aprender de las perspectivas de los jóvenes en la respuesta al COVID-19 hasta ahora? ¿Y cómo podemos involucrar de una mejor manera a los jóvenes en la preparación y respuesta a la pandemia ahora y en el futuro? Este informe se base en la literatura académica y gris que explora cómo el COVID-19 afecta a los jóvenes, así como en literatura que describe la respuesta a la pandemia en ALC y otras regiones. Presenta consideraciones sobre cómo involucrar a los jóvenes considerándolos no solo como parte de la población afectada, sino también como socios en la respuesta. El informe tiene por objetivo orientar a los actores humanitarios, los funcionarios de salud pública, los defensores de los jóvenes, los profesionales de la participación de la comunidad y otros involucrados en la respuesta al COVID-19. También representa un aporte a la base de pruebas existente sobre el impacto del COVID-19 en los jóvenes. Estas lecciones son útiles para fortalecer la preparación y las respuestas programáticas a los brotes epidémicos. Se consideran jóvenes las personas entre los 10 y los 24 años de edad. Las consideraciones clave se comparten para los adolescentes (de 10 a 19 años) y los jóvenes (de 15 a 24 años). Barbados y Brasil fueron elegidos como estudios de caso debido a su gran número de jóvenes (que representan algo menos del 20 % de la población en ambos países), así como a sus diferentes respuestas nacionales al COVID-19, a pesar de enfrentarse a retos similares durante la pandemia. Este informe es parte de la serie de Social Science in Humanitarian Action Platform (SSHAP) sobre las consideraciones de las ciencias sociales en relación con el COVID-19. Forma parte de una serie elaborada por los participantes del programa de becas de SSHAP, cohorte 2, y fue escrita por Stephanie Bishop y Juliana Corrêa. Las contribuciones fueron proporcionadas por expertos en la materia de UNICEF, el Ministerio de la Juventud de Barbados y la Universidad de Espírito Santo. El informe recibió el apoyo del equipo de SSHAP en el Institute of Development Studies y fue editado por Victoria Haldane (Anthrologica). Este informe es responsabilidad de SSHAP.
