  • Corn - an A-Maizing Plant
    Corn - An A-Maizing Plant Grade Level: 4-6 Approximate Length of Activity: Two to three class periods Objectives: Teacher: 1. Guide students in a discussion on corn production. 2. Help students understand the history of corn production. Students: 1. Locate and label the states on a U.S. map that make up the "Corn Belt". 2. Become familiar with the parts of the corn kernel. 3. Recognize products made from corn used in our daily lives. 4. Be able to distinguish, through dissection, the four different parts of a corn kernel. Michigan Content Standards: (Social Studies) II.2.2; II.2.3; IV.2.3 Introduction: The Corn Belt is a group of states where most of the corn in the United States is produced. Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and Minnesota produce 50 percent of all the corn grown in the US. Other major corn growing states include Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, South Dakota, Kansas, Missouri, Kentucky, and Ohio. These 12 states make up the Corn Belt. Corn is the major feed grain grown by farmers in the U.S., leading all other crops in value and volume of production. Corn is a major component in foods like cereals, peanut butter, and snack foods. An ear of corn has an average of 16 rows with 800 kernels. A pound of corn consists of approximately 1,300 kernels. An acre (about the size of a football field) of corn, yielding 100 bushels, produces approximately 7,280,000 kernels. Most of the weight of a bushel of corn is the starch, oil, protein, and fiber, with some natural moisture.

  • WE WRITE the FUTURE MAKING IT HAPPEN. a Company in Constant Evolution
    SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2019 WE WRITE THE FUTURE MAKING IT HAPPEN. A company in constant evolution. Grupo Caramuru’s journey began in 1964, when its founder, Múcio de Souza Rezende, created the Caramuru Machine, in Maringá, Paraná. With persistence, dedication and strong entrepreneurial vision were made, at that moment, the first steps that resulted in what is today among the main national companies of grain processing and export. From north to south of Brazil, over these five decades and anchored in solid values, Caramuru expanded its performance in Brazilian territory. Currently, it is present in five Brazilian states, with 64 warehouses, in addition to terminals, factories and units in several municipalities in the country. As a result of its constant investments in the personal development, in the relationship with rural producers and in the search for innovative and sustainable technologies, the company became a reference in the area of processing soybean, corn, sunflower and canola, thus conquering national and international markets. Each chapter of our history is a source of pride and celebration. And 2019 it was no different. Check the report to follow our results and achievements throughout this year. We wrote the future with 01 HISTORY. We wrote the future with 02 QUALITY. We wrote the future with 03 DEVELOPMENT. SUMMARY We wrote the future with In 2019, we wrote the future with our way of being.

ABSTRACT This experiment was laid out in order to determine the effect of nano-Zinc chelate and nano-biofertilizer on yield and yield components of maize under water stress condition on a loam clay soil, in Islamic Azad University of Boroujerd, Iran, during the growing seasons 2013- 2014. The experiment was laid out in a split-factorial design based on randomized block design with three replications. The experiment was laid out in a split-factorial design based on randomized block design with three replications. Treatments were different irrigation periods (7, 14 and 21 days) in main plots and nano-Zinc chelate and nano-biofertilizer in two levels of use and non use of them as factorial in sub plots.

  • The Industrial Landscape
    FOOD Ed. FOOD EDUCATION FOR CHANGE UNIT 2: FOOD AND THE ENVIRONMENT Note to Teachers The last lesson used wheat as an example to look at the ways in which new farming techniques, transportation technology, and regional specialization produced our modern industrialized farm system. This L.16 lesson will focus on three characteristics of that system – monoculture, dependence on chemicals, and Concentrated Animal Feeding THE INDUSTRIAL Operations (CAFOs) – that have an extremely high environmental cost. A key goal here is to return to a recurring question central to these LANDSCAPE lessons: how do these practices reshape our relationship with the natural world? Goals In this lesson, students will • appreciate the effectiveness of graphic and visual evidence. • develop a basic understanding of some key practices of conventional agricultural and the environmental costs of industrialized agriculture. • appreciate that further technological change helped to further distance farmers and eaters from a dialogue with nature. Objectives • Students will use a technique often known as a “silent conversation” to share and evaluate their observations and ideas. • Students will draw and integrate information from visual and written sources. • Students will collaboratively teach one practice to their peers. • Students will reflect on the question: what kind of relationship to the natural world does conventional agriculture reflect? Materials • Handouts of images • 11 x 17 or other large sheets of paper ©2018 Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture. All rights reserved. FOOD Ed. | A STONE BARNS CENTER PROJECT L.16 | THE INDUSTRIAL LANDSCAPE | P.1 Preparation Where possible, assign the accompanying reading as homework, so that L.16 students here can focus on the process laid out below.
