Anaerobic Fermentation of Silage from the Above-Ground Biomass of Jerusalem Artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) and Maize (Zea mayse L.) as a New and Promising Input Raw Material for Biogas Production
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)Research of new input raw materials for biogas plants is a very actual topic. There are only a very few studies dealing with the possibility of using silage prepared from the above-ground parts of the Jerusalem artichoke ... -
Assessment of the effect of optimised field plot size on the crop yield
(Česká akademie zemědělských věd, 2023)The presented research deals with the effect of plot size changes on the crop yield. Three plots were chosen in a company engaged in conventional agriculture, on which yields were monitored from 2019 using yield maps. In ... -
Effect of Drought on the Development of Deschampsia caespitosa (L.) and Selected Soil Parameters during a Three-Year Lysimetric Experiment
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2023)This work presents results from a field experiment which was focused on the impact of the drought period on microbial activities in rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere soil. To demonstrate the effect of drought, the pot ... -
Effect of Legumes Intercropped with Maize on Biomass Yield and Subsequent Biogas Production
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2023)The presented study deals with the use of legumes intercropped with maize for the production of biogas from silage. The main goal was to find out whether silages made from mixed cultures can be used in biogas production ... -
Effect of Mycotoxins in Silage on Biogas Production
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2023)Mycotoxins can pose a threat to biogas production as they can contaminate the feedstock used in biogas production, such as agricultural crops and other organic materials. This research study evaluated the contents of ... -
Potential effect of wetting agents added to agricultural sprays on the stability of soil aggregates
(Copernicus GmbH, 2022)A potential effect of adjuvants/wetting agents added to the spray mixture on the water stability of soil aggregates (WSA) in agricultural soil was studied. Nine sites were chosen in the Czech Republic. Each site was mapped ... -
Potential for the Accumulation of PTEs in the Biomass of Melilotus albus Med. Used for Biomethane Production
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2023)In this paper, a possible use of white sweet clover (Melilotus albus Med.) for phytoremediation was assessed. The plants were grown on soils with naturally occurring concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs). ... -
Pre-activated biochar by fertilizers mitigates nutrient leaching and stimulates soil microbial activity
(Springer International Publishing AG, 2023)Background: Previous studies have suggested that the targeted application of biochars in agricultural soils may benefit soil health and crop production. Physico-chemical properties of soils after biochar addition have been ... -
The Role of Biochar Co-Pyrolyzed with Sawdust and Zeolite on Soil Microbiological and Physicochemical Attributes, Crop Agronomic, and Ecophysiological Performance
(Springer Switzerland, 2023)The overuse of synthetic fertilizers has been associated with negative environmental consequences. The use of biochar in this regard has been recommended as a win-win strategy. However, our understanding on the comparative ... -
Study on the (bio)degradation process of bioplastic materials under industrial composting conditions
(Mendelova univerzita v Brně, 2017)The objective of this study was to determine the biodegradability of bioplastic materials-sponge cloths-available on the European market. They are labeled as 100 % biodegradable but not certified as compostable. The test ... -
Using UAV to Identify the Optimal Vegetation Index for Yield Prediction of Oil Seed Rape (Brassica napus L.) at the Flowering Stage
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)Suitability of the vegetation indices of normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), blue normalized difference vegetation index (BNDVI), and normalized difference yellowness index (NDYI) obtained by means of UAV at the ...
