Merr.]. The experiment was conducted at SODACO (South Davao Corporation) farm, Davao City, Philippines from March to October 2010. Five treatments with increasing K levels were applied per tree: control, no K, 150 g K basal, 225 g K basal and 225 g K basal + foliar application. Application of 225 g K rates positively influenced fruit quality of pummelo. Fruit pulp diameter and juice weight increased while peel thickness decreased. The 225 g K rates also increased juice pH, TA (titrable acidity) and TSS (total soluble solids) per tree. The yield of total phenol, flavonoid, vitamin C and oil per tree increased with 225 g K application. Results of the soil analysis before and after the conduct of the study showed an evidence of fertilizer absorption by the trees. It was also observed that foliar fertilization reduced soil acidity. This indicates the important role of K in improving the nutrient utilization and quality of 'Magallanes' pummelo.展开更多

The average annual rainfall is 1,430 mm and the total water resources are estimated at 215,000 Mm^3 (million of m^3)-year^-1. The hydric demand in the country is 70,000 Mm^3.year^-1, 6% of which is groundwater in origin. Over 70% of the water is used for agriculture. Thailand is the world's leading exporter of rice. The main problems faced by the Water Authority in Thailand are pollution, floods and droughts, depending on the geographical zone. From the hydrogeological point of view, the Central Plain is the main groundwater reservoir in the nation. Intensive extraction of groundwater over a long period of time has caused three main problems: a decline in groundwater levels, land subsidence, and seawater intrusion. These problems have been especially pressing in the area known as Greater Bangkok.展开更多

As China' s economic development and people' s consumption level of escalation of health sports industry made a historic breakthrough. Our health sports industry in recent years, despite considerable progress, but the constraints of economic, social, and other resources by healthy sports industry slow growth. Health Situation of the sports industry research is to identify bottleneck healthy development of sports industry. It has an important significance to promote the development of the health of the sports industry.展开更多
