Spatial-temporal characteristics and influence factors of high-quality development of animal husbandry industry in China. by Tiantian Su, Cuixia Li

“…Factors such as urbanisation rates, levels of scientific and technological innovation, transport infrastructure, levels of agricultural financial development, and population density all contribute positively to the high-quality development of China's animal industry. At the same time, a larger share of animal husbandry in both the overall industrial sector and the agricultural industry further contributes to this high-quality development; whereas, GDP per capita and fiscal support for agriculture do not appear to have a significant effect.…”

Adapting anaerobic consortium to pure and complex lignocellulose substrates at low temperature: kinetics evaluation by Ammar Musbah Saleh Ahmed, Kovasky Alfonso Buezo, Noori M. Cata Saady

“…Conclusions Anaerobic mixed culture can be adapted to pure and complex lignocellulosic substrates and convert them to methane at low temperature (20 °C) in relatively short time (105 days) using a sequential procedure. The culture adaptation to wheat straw proceeded at a slower rate than that for cow manure.…”
