PREFACE Dear Distinguished Delegates and Guests, The Organizing Committee warmly welcomes our distinguished delegates and guests to the 2010 International Conference on Agricultural and Animal Science (CAAS 2010) held in Singapore, during February 26-28, 2010. CAAS is sponsored by International Association of Computer Science and Information Technology (IACSIT). The aim objective of CAAS is to provide a platform for researchers, engineers, academicians as well as industrial professionals from all over the world to present their research results and development activities in Agricultural and Animal Science. This conference provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and application experiences face to face, to establish business or research relations and to find global partners for future collaboration. The conference Program Committee is itself quite diverse and truly international, with membership from the Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania. This proceeding records the fully refereed papers presented at the conference. The main conference themes and tracks are Agricultural and Animal Science. The conference aims to bring together researchers, scientists, chemists, biologists, engineers, and practitioners to exchange and share their experiences, new ideas, and research results about all aspects of the main conference themes and tracks and discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted. The main goal of the event is to provide international scientific forums for exchange of new ideas in a number of fields that interact in-depth through discussions with their peers from around the world. Both inward research; core areas of Agricultural and Animal Science and outward research; multi-disciplinary, inter-disciplinary, and applications will be covered during the event. The conference has solicited and gathered scientific and technical research submissions related to all aspects of major conference themes and tracks. All the submitted papers in the proceeding have been peer reviewed by the reviewers drawn from the scientific and technical committee, external reviewers and editorial board depending on the subject matter of the paper. Reviewing and initial selection were undertaken electronically. After the rigorous peer-review process, the submitted papers were selected on the basis of originality, significance, and clarity for the purpose of the conference. The selected papers and additional late-breaking contributions to be presented as lectures will make an existing technical program. The conference program is extremely rich, featuring high-impact presentations. The high quality of the program, guaranteed by the presence of an unparalleled number of internationally recognized top experts, can be assessed when reading the contents of the program. The conference will therefore be a unique event, where attendees will be able to iv
appreciate the latest results in their field of expertise, and to acquire additional knowledge in other fields. The program has been structured to favor interactions among attendees coming from many diverse horizons, scientifically, geographically, technically, from academia and from industry. Included in this will to favor interactions are social events at prestigious sites. We would like to thank the program chairs, organization staff, and the members of the program committees for their work. Thanks also go to Ms. Yihang, for her wonderful editorial service to this proceeding. We are grateful to all those who have contributed to the success of CAAS 2010. We hope that all participants and other interested readers benefit scientifically from the proceedings and also find it stimulating in the process. Finally, we would like to wish you success in your scientific and technical presentations and social networking. We hope you have a unique, rewarding and enjoyable week at CAAS in Singapore. With our warmest regards, The Organizing Committees February 26-28, 2010 Singapore
