Japan and Tariff-Free U.S. Rice
In 2015, Japan proposed a set of 70,000-ton import quota for tariff-free U.S. rice. This quota is substantially lower than what the United States had demanded. The United States quota was 175,000 tons. Rice is one of the key issues remaining between Tokyo and Washington. Currently, Japan imports 770,000 tons of tariff-free rice on year. This is approximately 7 percent of the total amount of rice consumed. Of that volume, only 100,000 tons of rice is bought for actual consumption. The rest of the rice is designated for its use ...

Analytical methods to evaluate seed dormancy in legumes

Abstract
Legumes are known to have multiple health benefits. The seed coat in particular contains a number of bioactive compounds which possess antioxidant activity. Of great interest is the relationship between the chemical composition of the seed coat and its role in seed dormancy. Modern technological approaches are currently used to further identify these compounds and determine their role in seed development; these include NRIS FTIR, mass spectroscopy, electron microscopy and chromatography. The following review describes the constituents of the legume seed coat and their respective roles in dormancy and other stages of seed development. The review also highlights ...

Garner was killed due to selling untaxed cigarettes while Michael Brown was a suspected robber. In both cases, the targeted were unarmed, and I think a re-evaluation of the use by the police force. Two different viewpoints persist in each of the cases. In the Garner case, he had been unable to breathe and choked to death. I think that the officers had no right to punish him with death because a man drinking and driving has no intention to kill others, ...

Introduction

The world food system has been in dynamism since the development of food trade and the need to create consumer preferences as demanded by every company or nation that had got the opportunity to produce, market and distribute food commodities (Leong-Salobir, 2011). This lead to expansion of agro-food based industries. This expansion however, being more effective and significant to the superior countries proved to be severe and detrimental to the colonized state. The Author puts the severity of this change as beyond the colonized nation’s individual’s health challenges. For instance the French food policy changes dictated the ...

In the ...
