A Comparative Analysis of Financial and Development Impacts of Two Hatchery Approaches to Promote Nile Tilapia in Northwest Bangladesh

Creator:: Haque, Mohammad Mahfujul, Little, David C., and Barman, Benoy K.
Abstract:: Adoption of aquaculture, particularly among the rural poor, requires timely and quality seed at the farmer level. In areas of Northwest Bangladesh, the region considered most marginalised for food production, carp polyculture has been improved through the introduction of Nile tilapia, but constrained by under-developed seed supply. In order to...

The effects of swinging and sorting with a skidder on yarding and loading efficiency in small diameter Douglas-fir

Creator:: McIntire, John Charles
Abstract:: This study evaluated the impact of using a rubber-tired skidder to keep the landing clear by sorting and decking the logs along the road prior to loading by a self-loading truck. The evaluation was accomplished through detailed time studies conducted on a Koller K-300 yarder, a Crown Super 3000 self-loader,...

An HP-75/HP--86 computer data collection system for recording and displaying logging equipment time studies

Creator:: Campbell, Thomas M.
Abstract:: Time studies of logging equipment are important to determine production rates, calculate logging costs and locate operating inefficiencies. However, using present time study techniques, they are also costly and time consuming to complete. This project will develop a new data gathering and storage technique using the HP-75 portable computer to...
