When is the best time to harvest crops? why?
Correct timing of harvest is crucial to crop loss prevention. Grain losses may occur caused by rats, birds, lodging, insects, and shattering. Timely harvesting ensures good grain quality and high market value.
Harvesting too early will result in a higher percentage of unfilled or immature grains, which will lower the yield and cause higher grain breakage during milling. Harvesting too late will lead to excessive losses and increased breakage in rice. Harvest time also affects the germination potential of rice seed.
There are different ways to determine the correct harvest time:
Moisture content
Grain moisture content ideally is between 20−25% (wet basis). Grains should be firm but not brittle when squeezed between the teeth.
Ripe grains per panicle
The crop should be cut when 80−85% of the grains are straw (i.e., yellow-colored).
Number of days after sowing
Generally, the ideal harvest time lies between 130 and 136 days after sowing for late, 113 and 125 for medium, and 110 days for early-maturing varieties.
Number of days after heading
For dry season harvesting, an optimum time is 28 to 35 days after heading. In wet season harvest, optimum time is 32 to 38 days after heading.
Other considerations
Harvesting also needs to be timed so that threshing can be done as soon as possible after cutting to avoid rewetting and to reduce grain breakage.
If the crop has a lot of surface moisture, (e.g. from previous rainfall or early in the morning), it is advisable to wait until the surface moisture dries off.
About the question:
You will find the completed strand in the attached files
Answer and Explanation:
First, we need to recognize each strand, the original one and the complementary one. We can recognize the original strand because bases are already given. So,
- The original strand is the one at the left,
- The complementary strand is the one at the right.
Now we need to recognize and pair the bases. Names are written with their letters.
Nitrogenated bases that form nucleic acids correspond to purines and pyrimidines. Adenine and guanine derive from purines, while Thymine and Citocine derive from Pyrimidines.
In the DNA molecule, Adenine (Purine) forms pairs with Timine (Pyrimidine), while Guanine (Purin) pairs with Cytosine. Two hydrogen bonds join the A-T pair, and three hydrogen bonds join the G-C.
Once we drag the base labels to their targets, we need to recognize each of the strain extremes.
One of the extremes has a phosphate group, which is named 5´. The other extreme has a hydroxyl OH named 3´. Both of them are readen in the 5´to 3´ direction. The polymerase enzyme reads the original strand in 5´ to 3´ mode, and the molecule lecture goes from 3´to 5´.
So, by looking at the labels, we will recognize the phosphate extreme and the hydroxyl one. We will place in the superior extreme of the original strain the phosphate group 5´ and in the other extreme the OH 3´. These positions will give us the direction reflected by the arrow. The complementary strand will have the same extreme labels but in opposite places. So first we will place the OH 3´ label in the superior extreme, and the phosphate 5´label in the inferior extreme, defining the direction reflected by the arrow.
