The cost of upgrading farms using modern technology can be significant. Fortunately, there are a number of Canadian government grants for farmers, ranchers, and producers to alleviate these financial burdens. Technology plays a major role today in enhancing a farm’s production efficiency, yields and profits over the ...
Introduction In the intricate dance between agriculture and sustainable energy, a profound synergy emerges. This section unveils the symbiotic relationship between agricultural planting and the quest for innovative charcoal production solutions, ushering in an era where farming residues become the backbone of renewable energy. ...
Spreaders: Fertilizers and spreaders utilize an agricultural gearbox that transfers energy from the PTO shaft to the PTO shaft into the spreading mechanism. ...
Supported by the Ministry of Agriculture the verification of energy crops by harvesting, monitoring the growth quality, promotion and consulting service on biomass utilization had been carried on in year 2005, 2006 and is onward in ...
OWNER Macon Municipal Utilities/Northeastern Missouri Grain LOCATION Macon, Missouri, USA PRODUCT Mars 100 (11.3 MWe) Gas Turbine CUSTOMER VALUE Sustainable Energy Production In 2002, Macon Municipal Utilities approached Northeastern Missouri Grain (NEMO), an 40 million gallon per year ethanol production facility, with the idea of implementing combined heat and power (CHP) for the economic, ...

The paper aims at providing a framework to calculate the agro-eco-compensation standard based on the systems agro-ecological concept of embodied energy as emergy. We have proposed a calculation system of eco-compensation standard for sustainable agricultural development based on the convertibility between emergy and price. According to our calculation, the ...
Human population is expected to soar to between 9 and 10 billion by 2050, with a growing number of people moving into the middle class and requiring more energy, natural resources and animal products. This combination of population growth and resource demand will put increased pressure on the planet’s resources, a fact that has interested parties from academia, nonprofits, ...

We are confident that sustainable sanitation solutions will have a positive domino effect on the environment, health, water, energy, women, agriculture, food security, quality society, well being and stability through the engagement of social business partners, CSR companies, non profit organizations, United Nation, development programs and banks, plus many ...
The Indus river system must meet the multiple needs of agriculture, energy and flood security. Pakistan's constitutional structure, in which the federation shares overall responsibility for the operation of the Indus with the provinces, poses unique management and implementation challenges. ...
Let’s know about them and how these steps are shaping our future. How energy requirements can be fulfill by converting the biomass waste into energy produced by agriculture. ...
We used simulation to study how three French sheep production systems could adapt to a new context created by a surge in cereal prices associated with changes in common agricultural policy support. The evaluation criteria were economic performance, energy efficiency, emissions of greenhouse gases, and sensitivity to technical and economic fluctuations. ...
Most sectors rely on energy as input to produce output. Though the use of energy by the agriculture sector is not as high as in other sectors, it is still necessary to study the links between the two. ...
“With a larger and wealthier population, both energy and food demand will grow,” says John Reilly, the lead author of the study and the co-director of the MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change. ...
A case study to demonstrate the relationship between DPR and urban water supplies, agriculture, the environment, and energy conservation, based on Southern California and the California State Water Project. ...
We illustrate the different approaches by analysing the Dutch transition case of the greenhouse as a source of energy from different theoretical perspectives. We conclude that these theories reveal additional and more varied leadership mechanisms and steering options than the overarching approach of transition management alone. Therefore, we suggest an approach of theoretical ...
Food insecurity in Africa is not a result of limited agricultural capacity but of neglected agricultural development, as well as poverty, poor infrastructure, land degradation and armed conflict, say the authors. They argue that the impact of bioenergy on food security depends on the crops grown, land used, technology employed, and how the ...
It does so on the basis of an expert survey both among general development policy practitioners who have in the past been involved in efforts at such 'integration'; and among sectoral experts in two sectors where it will be crucial to integrate responses to global environmental threats: agriculture and energy. The focus is on how to deal with both potential ...
In this context, the use of agricultural biotechnology to produce cheap biofuel made from agricultural crops as well as agricultural waste (cellulose) might have a great potential to promote rural development in Turkey. ...
