Variation in 'Hayward' kiwifruit quality characteristics
Quantify the magnitude, sources and distribution of variation in fruit quality traits within kiwifruit populations and identify opportunities for the management of this variation.
Near-infrared (NIR) grading was used as a tool for monitoring fruit quality, and measurements combined with orchard/vine information to investigate opportunities for the management of the variation in fruit quality traits with a particular focus on fruit DM. NIR enabled non-destructive assessment of the quality characteristics of individual fruit from 96 commercial orchards, comprising 550 fruit-lines, across four consecutive seasons, resulting in a dataset of measurements made on 146.7 million individual fruit. The distribution of quality traits within fruit populations and the relationships between quality traits were examined. The spatial component of variation in fruit quality was investigated to assess the potential for zonal management practices. Finally, the effects of growth temperatures on fruit quality were studied.
Significant variation in fruit quality was observed between-seasons, between-orchards, and between-vines within an orchard. From comparison of CVs between quality traits, cropload was more variable than fruit weight which varied more than fruit DM, independent of the production scale considered (between-orchard or between-vine). Across a hierarchy of fruit populations (individual vine, fruit-line and orchard), the majority of fruit quality distributions demonstrated significant deviations from normality. However, departures from normality can be tolerated for estimation of the proportion of fruit with specific quality criteria. The sources of variation in fruit weight and DM populations were investigated at both a between-orchard scale and a within-orchard scale. Between-orchard variation was significant, however, the majority of variation occurred within-fruitlines, within-orchards and within seasons. The within-fruitline component of variation was investigated separately. Both between-vine and within-vine variation were significant, but within-vine variation was dominant. The focus of management should be on reducing variation occurring within-fruitlines within-orchards, which is largely attributable to variation occurring within the individual vine.
Higher croploads per vine have negative consequences for fruit weight but variable effects on DM. Increasing croploads reduce both FW and DW allocations for each fruit, therefore the effect of cropload on DM is dependent on the relative reductions in FW and DW. The DW allocations to fruit are not limited by DW production, at least up to the croploads observed in this study (≤65 fruit m-2).
The potential for zonal management was investigated. Variation in fruit quality characteristics between-orchards across the Te Puke growing region, and between-vines within an individual orchard area were investigated using geostatistics. A spatial component to variation was identified both between-orchard and between-vine. However, the effect of spatial variation was diluted by that of non-spatial variation and therefore, zonation between orchards or between areas within-orchards should not be where the effort in managing variation is concentrated.
Orchard altitude correlated with some aspects of fruit quality. Mean fruit weight declined 0.5g and within-orchard variation in fruit weight declined 0.25 units with a 25m increase in orchard altitude. Mean fruit DM was independent of orchard altitude and within-orchard variability in DM declined 0.023 units per 25m increase in orchard altitude. Differences in orchard altitude equated with differences in growth temperatures. Warm spring and cool summer temperatures favour the growth of high DM fruit. The effects of spring temperatures on canopy development and maturation were investigated to elucidate potential physiological mechanisms for temperatures effects on fruit growth. Higher spring growth temperatures increased the rate of total leaf area development and promoted development of leaf photosynthesis. Higher spring growth temperatures favoured a more positive carbon balance, which has beneficial effects on the development of fruit quality characteristics.
Post-harvest, the traditional practice of grading fruit into count sizes generally also segregates for DM, and large count size fruit will often have higher DM than small sized fruit. Between fruit populations, a positive correlation was identified between fruit DM and acidity; therefore, segregation of the inventory by DM will also segregate for acidity. High DM fruit are also more acidic with a higher, more favourable brix/acid ratio when ripe. It is recommended that fruit DM status be managed in the inventory, not by maturity area as is the current practice, but by groups of similar count sizes within maturity areas
Dress and fashion at Henry's court
In the reign of Henry VIII clothing was an increasingly important part of court life. Maria Hayward explains howimportant it was for the King to dress the part, through making contacts with merchants and spending lavishly on new, luxury textiles. To maintain his place at the forefront of society and style, Henry was supported by the King's tailor and the office of the Great Wardrobe. The author makes the point that Henry was eminently suited to leading fashion while he was young and fit but that this was harder when he became older and fatter. The fascinating relationship between Henry's clothing and armour is explored; both were essentail in creating an image of magnificence. Today much of his armour survives, but sadly his costume does not
Introduction:Human Rights and the Environment
This introduction to the four volume edited set contextualises and charts the development over the past five decades of debates about the relationship between human rights and the environment
Global justice from outside-the-box
We live in a severely unequal world. Pressing questions are, then, what changes the
global advantaged should bring about to improve the situation of the global disadvantaged, and
why they should do so in the first place. Chapters 1, 2 and 3 answer the latter question whereas
chapters 4 and 5 answer the former.
Chapter 1 considers Peter Singer’s ‘non-relationist’ and Thomas Pogge’s ‘relationist’
approaches to global justice. The chapter argues that Pogge’s argument is more compelling than
Singer’s, but that it is incomplete. To make a relationist argument more plausible, the chapter
draws on two critical social theorists: Alf Hornborg and David Harvey. Based on their analyses,
and employing the perspectives of ‘human time’ and ‘ecological space’, the chapter concludes
that the advantaged are in violation of a stringent negative duty by being complicit in the harmful
global system. The chapter also introduces two kinds of debt – ‘temporal debt’ and ‘ecological
debt’ – that the advantaged may owe the disadvantaged. Chapter 2 argues that the global system
is not only harmful but severely harmful: it is likely to reproduce ‘absolute harm’ (a harm that
infringes upon minimum human well-being). Chapter 3 discusses what positive action the
advantaged ought to take because of the negative-duty violation and the problem-solving ability
they have. Focusing on two kinds of action – reparation and remedy – the chapter argues that
achieving reparation may face practical problems, but that the advantaged should act immediately
to provide remedy – in particular, institutional remedy – for the disadvantaged. In doing so, the
chapter commends the ‘advantaged remedy’ principle.
Chapters 4 and 5 consider remedial institutions which the advantaged should strive to
create and uphold. Chapter 4 focuses on one which we already have: the UN Global Compact.
The chapter argues that this institution is necessary in the light of present global circumstances
and also advances a set of principles appropriate to protect minimum human well-being. But it
concludes that this reformist institution may turn out to be insufficient. Based on this
conclusion, chapter 5 supports a more radical proposal: a market-socialist proposal offered by
Leslie Sklair. Sklair’s account, however, does not explain why it is market socialism, rather
than a non-market alternative, that should be pursued. Neither does it show how
market-socialist institutions would remedy the global-systemic problems that are likely to afflict
the disadvantaged. The chapter offers answers to these questions by drawing on David Miller
(for the first question) and David Schweickart (for the second question). The chapter then
argues that market socialism, if accompanied by an appropriate ethos, would serve to remedy the
situation of the global disadvantaged. Meanwhile, the shift to market socialism would, and
should, take time. So, this project concludes by considering a supplementary institution that
may need to be implemented in the meantime: an ecological space tax
