Grain amaranth's potent inhibitory effect could revolutionize agriculture practices worldwide!
The article explores the characteristics and potential uses of grain amaranth. The researchers conducted experiments to study how different soil and climate conditions affect seed emergence and plant growth. They also looked at the impact of drought on amaranth plants at various stages of growth. Results showed that grain amaranth extracts can delay seed germination, with leaf extracts being the most effective. Sowing depth and soil type influenced seedling weight and emergence rates. Amaranth plants were found to be resilient to drought conditions, with different watering regimes affecting growth and yield. Additionally, experiments with composite flours containing amaranth evaluated their baking properties and sensory characteristics.
