  • Plants for Tropical Subsistence Farms
    SELECTING THE BEST PLANTS FOR THE TROPICAL SUBSISTENCE FARM By Dr. F. W. Martin. Published in parts, 1989 and 1994; Revised 1998 and 2007 by ECHO Staff Dedication: This document is dedicated to the memory of Scott Sherman who worked as ECHO's Assistant Director until his death in January 1996. He spent countless hours corresponding with hundreds of missionaries and national workers around the world, answering technical questions and helping them select new and useful plants to evaluate. Scott took special joy in this work because he Photo by ECHO Staff knew the God who had created these plants--to be a blessing to all the nations.

  • Pachira Aquatica, (Zapotón, Pumpo)
    How to Grow a Sacred Maya Flower Pachira aquatica, (Zapotón, Pumpo) Nicholas Hellmuth 1 Introduction: There are several thousand species of flowering plants in Guatemala. Actually there are several thousand flowering TREES in Guatemala. If you count all the bushes, shrubs, and vines, you add thousands more. Then count the grasses, water plants; that’s a lot of flowers to look at. Actually, if you count the orchids in Guatemala you would run out of numbers! Yet out of these “zillions” of beautiful tropical flowers, the Classic Maya, for thousands of years, picture less than 30 different species. It would be a challenge to find representations of a significant number of orchids in Maya art: strange, since they are beautiful, and there are orchids throughout the Maya homeland as well as in the Olmec homeland, plus orchids are common in the Izapa area of proto_Maya habitation in Chiapas. Yet other flowers are pictured in Maya yart, yet in the first 150 years of Maya studies, only one single solitary flower species was focused on: the sacred water lily flower! (I know this focus well, I wrote my PhD dissertation featuring this water lily). But already already 47 years ago, I had noticed flowers on Maya vases: there were several vases that I discovered myself in a royal burial at Tikal that pictured stylized 4-petaled flowers (Burial 196, the Tomb of the Jade Jaguar). Still, if you have XY-thousand flowers blooming around you, why did the Maya picture less than 30? In other words, why did the Maya select the water lily as their #1 flower? I know most of the reasons, but the point is, the Maya had XY-thousand.

Circular letters are available on the Codex webpage/Circular Letters: http://www.fao.org/fao-who-codexalimentarius/resources/circular-letters/en BACKGROUND 1. Background on the discussion of the revision of the Classification of Food and Feed (CXM 4-1989) can be found in the reports of the 36th – 49th sessions of the Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR) including relevant sessions of the Codex Alimentarius (CAC) held from 2004 to 2017.1 2. The practice adopted by the Committee in the revision of the Classification is to retain the revision of the commodity groups (e.g. fruit commodity groups, vegetable commodity groups, etc.) awaiting final compilation of the related commodity groups and the corresponding tables on examples of representative commodities for inclusion in the Classification of Food and Feed and the Principles and Guidance on the Selection of Representative Commodities for the Extrapolation of Maximum Residue Limits for Pesticides to Commodity Groups (CXG 84-2012) respectively.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. In Brazil there is a semi-arid region of the Bahia State where the transition between caatinga and cerrado prevails. The Bombacopsis retusa (Mart. & Zucc.) A. Robyns belongs to Bombacaceae family, and is frequent in this region. Fruit of Bombacopsis retusa have seeds edible by native fauna and appreciated as appetizer nut in small local villages. With the purpose of verifying the potential application of the oil of this species in different industrial segments, the crude oil of Bombacopsis retusa seeds was extracted with Soxhlet apparatus with 55.5% yield. The physical and chemical analyses to determine the oleochemical indices showed acid value of 0.09 mg KOH-1 g-1, iodine value of 62.80 g I2-1 100 g-1, saponification index of 192.80 mg KOH-1 g-1, refractive index (40°C) of 1.468 and a melting point of 43.90°C.

  • House Plant Care and Handling Sheets.Pdf
    MONSTERA DELICIOSA • SWISS CHEESE PLANT The Monstera Deliciosa or swiss cheese plant, is a large, popular, easy- care houseplant. There is a great deal of confusion about what to call this plant; the various names have become inter-changeable over the years. Some other names for this plant are: Window Leaf Plant Ceriman, and Mexican Breadfruit Plant. Whatever we call them, these plants are native to the jungles of Mexico, Panama, and India, have big glossy heart- shaped leaves that, as the plant matures, split from the leaf edge to the center vein. If you want a big, tropical, low maintenance plant, this one is perfect. CARE LIGHT A Monstera Deliciosa needs medium to bright light. It can survive in lower light, but the leaves won't split and the plant becomes leggy. Keep it out of the direct sun. WATER Water well until the water drains out the drip holes in the bottom of the pot. Allow the top 25-30% of the soil to dry out before watering again. Keep the soil damp but never soggy. Water droplets or perspiration on the leaves indicate over-watering; brown leaf edges indicate under watering. FERTILIZER Feed every two weeks when the plant is actively growing with a balanced plant food diluted to 1/2 the recommended strength. TEMPERATURE This plant prefers warm temperatures and doesn't do well in temperatures below 50°F. HUMIDITY Monstera Deliciosa grow better in high humidity, but adapt to household humidity. FLOWERING A Monstera Deliciosa rarely flowers when grown as a houseplant. PESTS Monstera Deliciosa are fairly immune to plant pests; but if mealy bugs, spider mites, aphids, or scale appear, spray with household use insecticide.

A protein extract containing a plant lipase from oleaginous seeds of Pachira aquatica was tested using soybean oil, wastewater from a ∘ poultry processing plant, and beef fat particles as substrate. The hydrolysis experiments were carried out at a temperature of 40 C, an incubation time of 90 minutes, and pH 8.0-9.0. The enzyme had the best stability at pH 9.0 and showed good stability in the alkaline range. It was found that P. aqu ati ca lipase was stable in the presence of some commercial laundry detergent formulations, and it retained full activity up to 0.35% in hydrogen peroxide, despite losing activity at higher concentrations. Concerning wastewater, the lipase increased free fatty acids release by 7.4 times and promoted the hydrolysis of approximately 10% of the fats, suggesting that it could be included in a pretreatment stage, especially for vegetable oil degradation.

In this chapter, we attempt to describe the major types of vegetation cover in this vast region as they occurred in pre- Columbian times and outline the conditions that support them. Examining the large-scale phytogeographic regions characterized by each major cover type (see Fig. I), we provide basic information on geology, geological history, topography, and climate; describe variants of physiognomy (vegetation structure) and geography; discuss transitions; and examine some floristic patterns and affinities within and among these regions.
