The question for this experiment was which type of sugar (glucose or sucrose) can produce the most ethanol (greatest ethanol percent) through the fermentation and distillation of different food products (corn syrup, strawberry, molasses, corn, and…

Grafting is a common gardening technique that unites a scion (top of one plant) with a rootstock (the root of another plant). Often times people graft their plants in order to repair a broken or injured plant, to speed up the growth by giving it a…

The purpose of this experiment was to determine the survival rate of Soybean Cyst Nematodes when exposed to peptide D4E1.The null hypothesis is that the peptide will have no effect on the survival rate. The simplified procedure includes extracting…

How do different amounts of chemicals in fertilizer affect plant growth? Well, it was predicted that if the amount of chemicals increase above the optimal, then the height will decrease because if too many chemicals are added to the soil, they can…

In this project, five different types of soybeans were tested in three sequentially staged droughts with one control group. My hypothesis was that soybean P24T05R would do best in drought, and soybean R2C2450 would do the worst. The materials used…

This study tested which type of soybean has the most peroxidase. The function of peroxidase found in soybeans is to initiate the growth process when the plant is growing or injured. The hypothesis was that there will be no difference in the levels…

The effect of seed storage conditions on the drought-tolerance of its soybean plants was studied. The researcher hypothesized that soybean seeds stored in the freezer (-10°F to 5°F), with a moderate relative humidity (50% to 60%) will have the best…

Have you ever been curious if the type of soil used affects how plants grow? Five soybean seeds were planted 2.5 cm deep, in separate pots of each type of soil. After seeds were planted, all 10 plants were placed by a long window so that each…

The objective was to compare the yield and protein and oil content of Glycine max planted with a 2 x 2 application of 10-34-00 starter fertilizer and without starter fertilizer, and to compare the quality of water discharge from field drainage tile…

Soybeans are a great source of protein, which are crucial for both the human and animal diet. Because of this, they are found in 80% of most foods in the United States. Chocolate, soy milk, protein bars, and tofu are just a few foods with soybeans…

In 2016 there were several natural disasters in the United States. These disasters include hurricanes, blizzards, and floods. The United States Blizzard (January 2016) dumped heavy snow from the Mid-Atlantic to the Southern New England states. In…

Precision farming is a complex multidisciplinary field, and drone technology is one of the most vital studies at the core of the subject. Through the use of various unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), farmers worldwide monitor and observe their…
