关键资源 This article is from ECHO Asia Note #27 种子储存的原则 当要建一个“冷藏室”或“种子储藏室”来达到保持种子活性的目的时，最先要考虑的种子储存的最佳条件。在ECHO 亚洲期刊14（ECHO Asia Note 14）（2012 年6 月），我们分享了真空密封和冷藏的对比结果，并强调对于种子储存湿度和温度控制的重要性。我们发现湿度控制（真空密封）比温度控制（冷藏）更有效地保存种子活性。在这个ECHO 亚洲的实验中，热带种子最佳的储存方式是干燥后（为了保持较低的种子湿度）立刻真空密封，然后把种子储存在较低的温度之下。要设计一个最适宜种子储存的冷藏室，...

Abstract,IOP Publishing, 2018 With the overall temperature rise across the globe and the sweltering heat these summers, one can safely assume that households will see a furious shoot-up in their electricity bills this year. While the urban population resorts to air-conditioning to escape the heat...
- A variety of solutions have entered the market in recent years, which provide low-income households and workshops or small factories with a simple cooling solution that can be installed in a wall or window, basically providing them with a natural ‘air-conditioning’ system with no or low energy...

Access Agricuture Training Video When you pick your tomatoes, if you want to keep them longer, you have to find a way of reducing the temperature. As availability of electricity at village level can be a problem, ways have to be found to lower the temperature of this fragile crop. Some farmers at...

Kate and Ron Khosla started Huguenot Street Farm in New Paltz, NY in 1999. As small farmers, they learned the value of money the hard way, literally pulling it a few cents at a time from the ground. So when they looked into adding a walk-in cooler to the farm, the idea of spending $3,500 for a...

New, low-cost indicator of food dryness: DryCard In developing countries, mold growth on dried foods can result in postharvest losses for farmers and unsafe foods for consumers. Food will not mold if it is properly dried, but smallholder farmers do not have access to a cost-effective way of...

With an increasing interest in the use of refrigerants with a low global warming potential (GWP), engineers are looking to nature’s refrigerant – R-718, better known by its chemical formula, H2O. Evaporative cooling is not a new concept; its use in buildings can be traced back thousands of years....

1982-01-01 The results, as in previous years, revealed that summer planting of the greenhouses required a high input and resulted in a low out production. Considerable effort, time and investment must be spent towards research to increase the greenhouse cooling efficiency and plant productivity and in...

Much of the post-harvest loss of fruits and vegetables in developing countries is due to the lack of proper storage facilities. While refrigerated cool stores are the best method of preserving fruits and vegetables they are expensive to buy and run. Consequently, in developing countries there is...

1980-01-01 Two colled greenhouses were purchased and installed at Rodiat El-Faras, for experimental purpose to raise vegetable crops in the off-season period, May through October. The adverse environmental conditions inside the greenhouses, although extended the availability season of tomatoes, resulted in...
