JC-9465 is a new proprietary advanced chemistry that generates ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species). It is an aqueous chelation of minerals/metals and oxychloride compounds in a liquid form. Our mineral oxychloride technology is a source of oxygen energy that is effective against 99.9999% of bacteria and viruses. By generating a high concentration of hydroxyl radical ions and other oxygen species, ...
The DNA sequence of a gene responsible for resistance to a devastating virus in wheat has been discovered, providing important clues for managing more resistant crops and maintaining a healthy food supply. Wheat crops in the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Africa are regularly damaged by wheat yellow mosaic virus (WYMV), and there is a high demand ...
Applications of evaporation sensors Evaporation sensors have a wide range of applications in various industries including agriculture, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals and manufacturing. Some of the most common applications for evaporation sensors include: Agriculture: Evaporation sensors are used in agriculture to monitor evaporation rates in crops, soils and ...
CEA production systems are currently producing just a fraction of our food crops, but certain high-value specialty crops like fresh herbs, tomatoes, salad greens and strawberries are now being produced via CEA production systems or hybrid greenhouse and CEA systems. ...

Their excessive use has been harmful to crop production, food safety, and human health. Globally, high attention has been given to pesticide residues and specific regulations have been regularly updated especially those focusing on minimizing the MRL level, human health protection, food loss, and economic sustainability. Bound by these ...
This is commonly used not just for food growth, but also to help improve crop quality7 and as a way of preserving products during transportation.8 To help with crop growth, one of the most effective gas concentrations to alter is carbon dioxide. ...
Even in Asian regions where rice is currently the main crop, salt-tolerant wheat will become an important component of future food supply, as wheat cultivation requires much less water than rice. ...
All of these aspects affect the development and growth of food crops; however, they affect it in different ways. The length of the day, or the photoperiod, is important since the ratio of light to darkness controls processes like forming of growth and flowering in many plants. ...

One-click creation provides new ideas for efficient and rapid utilization of excellent wild resources and cultivated germplasm, and cultivation of environment-adaptive crops and crops with diverse planting patterns. Global climate change has led to frequent occurrence of extreme weather, threatening the development of modern agriculture and national ...
Food security, nutrition and the future of farming are challenges that face us all, but with innovation and research, there are solutions at hand. ...
Tackling Malawi's Hidden Hunger through Selenium and Iodine biofortification to green vegetables and conservation agriculture (CA) field crops Introduction In sub-Saharan Africa, micronutrient deficiencies are common in poor and rural areas, due to over-farmed, depleted soils and restricted diets. In Malawi, three-quarters of the population are selenium-deficient, which can ...
If you are also engaged in the cultivation of food or cash crops and do not consider the market, you can still consider the powder with low investment cost. ...
Imagine Dan’s delight to watch the documentary, Kiss the Ground, and have his vision confirmed. Since 1986, our owner/inventor Daniel Lee has engaged in deep, self-study of soil chemistry, biology, biochemistry, and metallurgy to discover the natural means by which nutrients are dissolved and released to supply energy to hungry plant roots thereby turning soils – that are otherwise ...
For every kilogram of “usable” crop produced in agriculture, between 1 and 2.5 kilograms of residue is also produced. ...
CALL FOR PAPERS Introduction Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an important cereal crop and nearly more than half the population of the world subsists on it. ...
Moreover, the swarming of locusts not only reduces food supplies for people and cattle alike but can also trigger social unrest by damaging communities and international relations cross-border. ...
The work grew out of Marelli's previous research on using silk coatings as a way to extend the shelf life of seeds used as food crops. "When I was doing some research on that, I stumbled on biofertilizers that can be used to increase the amount of nutrients in the soil," he says. ...
This is commonly used not just for food growth, but also to help improve crop quality7 and as a way of preserving products during transportation.8 To help with crop growth, one of the most effective gas concentrations to alter is carbon dioxide. ...
Early detection and identification are key to prevent crop loss. There are, however, only a few instruments available which can help in monitoring crops on the field to prevent or arrest soil pests and pathogen growth. Crop Loss Due to Pests and Diseases It is common to have pests and pathogens attacking plants. ...
Photosynthesis is undoubtedly one of the most important physiological processes on Earth. It is the process by which plants, algae, and bacteria produce food. Photosynthesis makes these organisms the primary producers of the earth, as all other organisms feed on them for their energy source. People depend on this important process for most of their needs: food, fiber, fuel, timber, etc. Also, ...
