The objective of the present study is to investigate the engineering properties of paddy (One-thousand-one) grown in the coastal region of Odisha (India). The average length, width and thickness of paddy are measured as 8.80 mm, 2.65 mm and 1.91 mm respectively at moisture content of 28% (wb). The mean bulk density and true density of the particular variety of paddy are measured to be 0.61 g/cc and 1.47 g/cc. Properties like equivalent diameter, sphericity, grain volume, grain surface area, aspect ratio and porosity are calculated to be 3.58 mm, 0.40, 24.00 mm3, 35.66 mm2, 0.30, 58.24% respectively. The angle of repose and angle of friction of the paddy grains are determined to be 37.73o and 0.43o, 0.25o, 0.30o with plywood, glass and galvanized iron respectively. These engineering properties are useful in design of forced convection dryer for the drying and processing of paddy.

Group A

Hormonal treatment of cows at the coastal region of Barisal district of Bangladesh was performed to assess the improvement of pregnancy rate. A total of 100 cows and heifers with irregular history of cyclicity were selected randomly and divided into five treatment groups. The groups were A (treated with anthelmintic), B (treated with anthelmintic, vitamin ADE and multivitamin powder), C (treated with PGF2α), D (treated with GnRH) and E (treated with GnRH and PGF2α). Each group comprised of 20 animals. The age, breed and parity of experimental cows were considered during treatment. In the study, the cows treated with both GnRH and PGF2α (group E) showed significantly (p<0.05) higher estrus (80%) and pregnancy rate (60%) than that of group A, B, C and D. The overall estrus rates of local and crossbred cows were 64% and 70%, respectively and the pregnancy rates were 40 and 52%, respectively. The crossbred cows responded significantly (p<0.05) to hormonal treatment than that of local cows. Parity-2 cows showed higher estrus sign than that of other parities. However, the pregnancy rates were higher significantly (p<0.05) in parity-2 and parity ≥4 cows than that of parity-0, parity-1 and parity-3 cows. The pregnancy rate was also found higher in case of 4 to <5 years old cows than that of 2 to <3, 3 to <4, 5 to <6, and ≥6 years old. It may conclude that the hormonal regimen increases the pregnancy rate as well as decreases the undesired waiting of estrus and conception. Further study with more sample size will reveal the more effective treatment for cows at the coastal areas of Bangladesh.
