Genetic-protein level interaction in growth and carcass traits of market hogs

Creator:: Boyd, Steven Michael
Abstract:: Progeny from three sires of differing genetic background were divided within litters by sex and placed on either a 15 or 19% protein ration. The test period began when the experimental animals weighed 60 pounds and continued until they were slaughtered at 225 pounds. This test period was divided into...

Quantifying the fertilizer value of algal meal : an evaluation of an integrated dairy-anaerobic digester-algae production facility

Creator:: Andrews, Shannon B.
Abstract:: Algae have shown great potential as a source for renewable fuels. However, current production schemes have not been able to prove a sustainable energy return on investment due in part to the high costs of nutrient addition and the energy required for drying the biomass. Integrated algae-dairy production systems have...

Successional changes associated with benthic assemblages in experimental streams

Creator:: Busch, David E.
Abstract:: Experimental streams constructed by the Weyerhaeuser Company, Tacoma, Washington, at Kalama Springs, Washington, were used to observe successional changes in the benthos. Community changes were observed relative to experimental manipulations of light intensity and nitrate concentration in two experiments. The development of benthic assemblages was followed for 150 days after...

Estimating the Value of Water for Irrigation in Deschutes County, Oregon Utilizing a Hedonic Pricing Model

Creator:: Zimmerman, Grant J.
Abstract:: This thesis uses a hedonic price model to estimate the value of water for irrigation in Deschutes County, Oregon. The analysis uses a dataset comprising information on 2,274 agricultural parcels across the County. Uniquely, the analysis successfully utilizes assessor-determined real market values in the place of actual land sales. A...
