(a)
Interpretation:
Yield in grain per acre whether raises, lowers or have no effect on the estimate has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
The requirement of land is more to produce chicken, beef and pork than it does to produce grains such as soybeans and corn.
In-order to produce beef, grains is needed to feed the animals and in-order to produce grains, the requirements are water, land, fertilizer and energy to produce. The land is also needed to graze the animals. Land and water is necessary for raising pigs and chickens also.
(b)
Interpretation:
Portion of the animal’s lifespan included in the estimate whether raises, lowers or have no effcet on the estimate has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
The requirement of land is more to produce chicken, beef and pork than it does to produce grains such as soybeans and corn.
In-order to produce beef, grains is needed to feed the animals and in-order to produce grains, the requirements are water, land, fertilizer and energy to produce. The land is also needed to graze the animals. Land and water is necessary for raising pigs and chickens also.
(c)
Interpretation:
Breed of livestock whether raises, lowers or have no effcet on the estimate has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
The requirement of land is more to produce chicken, beef and pork than it does to produce grains such as soybeans and corn.

- 9.16 According to Figure 9.2, the total energy supply in the United States in 2016 was 111.261015 Btu. Express this value in joules and in calories. FIGURE 9.2 Energy production and consumption (in quadrillion Btu) in the United States during the year 2016. The discussion in the text explains how to read this complex figure, which contains an enormous amount of information about the energy economy. Data come from the Department of Energy and do not always add up exactly as expected due to rounding and other issues.arrow_forwardJollibee Burger Item Sodium(mg) Fat(g) Calories Item cost($) Beef Patty 50 17 220 $0.25 Bun 330 9 260 $0.15 Cheese 310 6 70 $0.10 Onions 1 2 10 $0.09 Pickles 260 0 ,. 5 $0.03 Lettuce 3 0 4 $0.04 Ketchup 160 0 20…arrow_forwardAfter pressing cheese overnight, the yield is 950.2kg, fat 31% w/w, protein 27%, and moisture 36%.

Table 1 gives values for the amount of Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) removed from the soil by maize, wheat or ryegrass. Table 2 shows the balance between the inputs and the outputs of phosphorus within the 30 hectare field. 1.) Using the tables, calculate the next soil phosphorus balance if: a. Wheat was planted b. Maize was planted c. Ryegrass was planted 2.) identify the crop which produces the greatest phosphorus stress within the soil. 3.) suggest what steps the farmer may take to avoid phosphorus loss within the soil.arrow_forwardPart D: Food Calories Naked Juice Serving size 240 mL D1.
