He was re­ search officer-in-charge of the Oil Palm Research Centre at Kade, Ghana from 1964 to 1971 and head of the Coffee Breeding Unit at the Coffee Research Sta­ tion near Ruiru, Kenya, from 1971 to 1981. He obtained his PhD degree from Wageningen Agricultural University in 1974 with a thesis on breeding and quantitative genetics in the oil palm. In 1981 he joined Sluis & Groot Seed Company at Enkhuizen (Netherlands) as research manager and subsequently became director of the breeding programmes for vegetable and flower seed crops. After early retirement in 1993 he went overseas once more as seed in­ dustry adviser to the Ministry ofAgricultur e in Dhaka, Bangladesh until 1996. Since that time he has been active as a freelance consultant in plant breeding, and has undertaken assignments concerning vegetable seeds, cereal crops, co­ coa, oil palm and coffee. He has published over 40 scientific papers and written a chapter on breeding in two handbooks on coffee, contributed as co-author and associate editor of PROSEA No 8 Vegetables and as co-author and co-editor of PROSEA No 16 Stimulants. DR B.E. UMALI graduated from the University of the Philippines Los Banos (UPLB) in 1975 with a BSc degree in agriculture (major in horticulture). She started working in the Department of Horticulture, UPLB in a research project on post-harvest physiology and handling of fruits and vegetables. Subsequently she became involved as a graduate assistant in a comprehensive technology transfer and extension programme of UPLB while pursuing graduate studies that led to a MSc degree in horticulture in 1981. After graduation, she trans­ ferred to the Crops Research Division of the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resources Research and Development (PCARRD) where she is still based. At PCARRD, she has been responsible for various activities such as the formulation, monitoring and evaluation of R & D projects and pro­ grammes on different crop commodities. As subject matter specialist, she has prepared write-ups, coordinated the preparation of and co-edited several publi­ cations for extension specialists and farmers. In summer of 1999, she obtained a PhD degree in development communication from UPLB. ISBN 90-5782-095-1 NUGI 835 Design: Frits Stoepman bNO. © Prosea Foundation, Bogor, Indonesia, 2001.

  • Crop Profile for Basil in New Jersey Ocimum Basilicum (L.) O
    Crop Profile for Basil in New Jersey Ocimum basilicum (L.) O. tenuiflorum O. americanum Lamiales: Lamiaceae Prepared: 2008 General Production Information Yearly production: Approximately 450 acres % of crop for fresh market: 100% % of crop grown for retail market: 10 % % of crop grown for wholesale market: 90 % Production Regions The majority of basil production occurs in the southern New Jersey counties of Atlantic (100 acres), Cumberland (225 acres), and Gloucester (50 acres). There is some basil production in the central counties of Monmouth, Ocean, and Burlington, amounting to less than 50 acres. Soils in southern and much of central New Jersey are light, ranging from sand to sandy loam with some areas of silt loam. Basil production in the southern region extends from early April to October. In this region, basil is predominantly grown for the wholesale market, with plant stems generally cut or pulled, washed and bundled in 12-15 plant or stem bunches. Wholesale units are 15-count (bunch) crates. Some basil in this region is produced for the retail market and sold at farm stands or directly to restaurants. In this case, basil is generally sold by the bunch. In the northern counties of Hunterdon, Mercer, Morris, Warren, and Sussex, many growers produce basil, but on minimal acreage. Soils in the northern region are typically Piedmont (heavy silt loams) and Appalachian (shaley) soils. The field season begins in mid-May here, and continues until cold weather terminates production. In the north, basil is grown exclusively for retail at farm stands and at community-sponsored farmers markets. Typical growers in this region produce less than one half acre of basil.

  • Petition to the Administrative Council of the European Patent Organization
    August 10, 2019 BY EMAIL Petition to the Administrative Council of the European Patent Organization Cc: Antonio Campinos, President of the EPO Emmanuel Macron, President, French Republic Christoph Ernst, VP Legal/ International Affairs Angela Merkel, Chancellor, Germany Karin Seegert, COO, Healthcare & Chemistry Mark Rutte, Prime Minister, The Netherlands Piotr Wierzejewski, Quality Management Boris Johnson, Prime Minister, United Kingdom Stoyan Radkov - Applicant’s Representative Cornelia Rudloff-Schäffer, President, German PTO Tim Moss, CEO, Intellectual Property Office of Cadre Philippe, Director, French National Institute the United Kingdom of Industrial Property Vincentia Rosen-Sandiford, Director, Netherlands Patent Office Re: European patent application 09735962.4; and European divisional application 17182663.9; Applicant: Asha Nutrition Sciences, Inc. Dear Delegates in the Administrative Council, We have been prosecuting the referenced patent applications directed to critical innovations for public health at EPO for last 10 years. However, rather than advancing the innovations EPO has been obstructing them. EPO statements in the prosecution history evidence that rejections have been applied to oblige us to reduce the claimed scope, even though as per provisions of European Patent Convention, the subject claims are perfectly patentable. A narrow patent is not synonymous with a quality patent. The metric of quality disregarded by EPO is genuine innovation, measured by betterment of life achieved, though that is the very purpose of patents and is built into the law. For example, solutions to critical unmet needs are inventive even if claims are otherwise obvious (GL1, G-VII, 10.3). Narrow patents in the nutrition arts have already caused great harm to public health and created patent-practice- made humanitarian crises by creating misinformation and taken us farther away from solving nutritional problems, preventative solutions, and sustainability.

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms.

There was Gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis used for the characteristic of the semiquantitative composition of the essential oils. The DPPH method was used to determine the antioxidant activity. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of essential oils against Stenotrophomonas maltophilia were analyzed in a 96-well plate. The broth microdilution method was used for the minimal inhibitory concentration. A gas-phase antimicrobial assay was used to determine inhibitory concentrations in a food model. CLEO proved to be the best with the lowest MIC 50 and 90 of 6.67 µL.mL-1 respectively 6.81 µL.mL-1 and antioxidant activity of 33.43% among the tested essential oils. The main volatile compounds CLEO were limonene 36.38%, elemol 16.65%, α-fellandren 12.18% and elemicin 9.59%. It showed inhibition of S. maltophilia growth in the food model at the lowest concentrations among the essential oils.

In the past few decades, however, these mangrove forests have been largely degraded and destroyed during the process of development. The negative environmental and socio-economic impacts on mangrove ecosystems have led many government and non- government agencies, together with civil societies, to launch mangrove conservation and rehabilitation programmes, especially during the 1990s. In the course of such activities, programme staff have faced continual difficulties in identifying plant species growing in the field. Despite a wide availability of mangrove guidebooks in Southeast Asia, none of these sufficiently cover species that, though often associated with mangroves, are not confined to this habitat.
