Comparison of sample preparation methods for higher heating values in various sugarcane varieties using near-infrared spectroscopy by Kantisa Phoomwarin, Khwantri Saengprachatanarug, Jetsada Posom, Seree Wongpichet, Kittipong Laloon, Arthit Phuphaphud

“…A key parameter for evaluating energy potential is the heating value, which is typically determined using bomb calorimetry. However, this traditional method is time-consuming because it requires pre-drying of samples and is limited by small sample sizes, potentially leading to inaccuracies and the need for repeated measurements, thereby increasing the overall cost. …”

Comparison of yield traits in rice among three mechanized planting methods in a rice-wheat rotation system by Zhi-peng XING, Ya-jie HU, Hai-jun QIAN, Wei-wei CAO, Bao-wei GUO, Hai-yan WEI, Ke XU, Zhong-yang HUO, Gui-sheng ZHOU, Qi-gen DAI, Hong-cheng ZHANG

“…The highest yield was produced by the combination of JIHR and PSMT; (ii) high yield under PSMT was mainly attributed to large sink capacity and high-efficient dry matter accumulation. With sufficient panicles per hectare, the increase of spikelet number per panicle, especially the increase in spikelet number of the secondary rachis-branches was determined to be the optimal approach for developing a large sink capacity for rice under PSMT. …”
