This paper gives an overview of the availability, nutritive quality, and possible strategies to
improve the utilization of rice straw as a feed ingredient for ruminants. Approximately 80% of …

Rice straw is unique relative to other cereal straws in being low in lignin and high in silica.
Unlike other cereal straws taller varieties of rice straws tend to be leafy while the leaves are …

We measured the physical strength (resistance to shearing) of untreated rice straw (UTS)
and ammoniated rice straw (ATS) fragments with reference to bacterial attachment and …

Rice is the world's second largest cereal crop after wheat, however, it produces large
amounts of crop residues. Only about 20% of rice straw was used for purposes such as …

Recently, cheap and large capacity non-volatile memory such as flash memory is rapidly
