Abstract:
... Seed is the most fundamental input in vegetable production on which the effectiveness of other inputs and outputs depends. If the seed is of poor quality, the use of other inputs is less successful and will occasionally be irrelevant. A definition of seed quality will depend upon the use for which the seed is intended. Viability, vigor, uniformity, purity and health of the seeds are quality parame ...

Abstract:
... To compensate for the lack of available land and its increasing population, Singapore needs to develop its own effective farming systems that will not be influenced by climate change. Using aeroponic systems, our previous studies showed that cooling the root-zone could help produce all types of vegetables all year-round. Recently, we have developed an integrated vertical aeroponic farming (VAF) sy ...

Abstract:
... Brassica is an important vegetable and oilseed crop. Increased temperature due to climate change may have detrimental effects on Brassica performance. Therefore, seed germination studies were conducted to determine the effect of temperature and hydropriming on germination and seedling growth of Brassica species. Four Brassica species (‘Wang bujang’ (Brassica rapa var. parachinensis), ‘Menang’ (Bra ...

Abstract:
... Light supplementation can increase crop yield in greenhouses by promoting photosynthesis and plant growth. However, the high energy costs associated with light supplementation are a predominant factor that limits development and profit improvement of controlled environment agriculture. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are a promising technology that has tremendous potential to improve irradiance effic ...
