| The threshing section on combine harvester or thresher machine affects grain and stalk separation performance. The present study is conducted with view to optimize important operational and crop parameters influencing the threshing of sorghum. In this research, the effects of cylinder speed with four levels (13, 17, 21 and 25 m s-1), concave clearance (5, 10 and 15 mm) and feed rate (420, 500 and 590 kg h-1) were investigated on un-separated seed percentage, damaged seed percentage and germination. Result of ANOVA showed that cylinder speed had a significant effect on unseparated seed percentage and damaged seed percentage (P |

| Saffron is an herb plant and it propagated by corm. After 6 or 7 years, saffron corms should be picked up from the underground, graded and re-cultivated in the new field. Determination of appropriate lifting method, packaging and storage of saffron corms are necessary to reduce the falling of germination and maintained the corms quality. In this research, the effects of soil moisture content during lifting, packaging methods, storage temperature and storage period on corms waste, saffron yield, dried leaves weight and corms proliferation were investigated. Statistical analysis was done on randomized complete block design applying the analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that the increasing of storage period, from 1 to 3 month, increased the... |

| The separating of saffron stigma from fresh flowers is the most important and the most difficult step of saffron harvesting. The separating of saffron stigma is done with the hand labor, and it have time-consuming and costly. The saffron flowers will be decay if separating of saffron stigma is not done quickly. Drying is one method of keeping saffron. The dried saffron flowers have the higher shelf life, and there have more time for separating of stigma. The main object of this study was to determine the best saffron flower drying method. Therefore, the effect of variables including drying temperature in three levels (40, 50 and 60 °C), airflow rate in two levels (0.5 and 1 m/s) and three levels of flowers (buds, semi opened and fully opened) were... |
