Method for fermenting organic fertilizer by peanut shell
Peanut shell is a rare plant waste and flower fertilizer. As a kind of soil loose agent, it is often used in soil cultivation. If the peanut shell is not rotten, it is not conducive to the growth of plants. If the peanut shell is used in plants, it will have some side effects on the root growth of plants, and may also affect the absorption of nutrients and burn the root system of plants. ...

Ozone for Vertical Farming
Ozone in vertical farming is an excellent organic fungicide and biocide. In addition to its high efficiency and the advantages of not leaving chemical residues on the leaves. When ozone is dissolved in water favors root growth and increases dissolved oxygen in plants. About 90% of the water used worldwide is for agriculture. Ozone helps reduce the amount of water and helps inactivate viruses ...

Effect of exo-polysaccharides producing bacterial inoculation on growth of roots of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants grown in a salt-affected soil
Abstract: Effect of soil salinity on physico-chemical and biological properties renders the salt-affected soils unsuitable for soil microbial processes and growth of the crop plants. Soil aggregation around roots of the plants is a function of the bacterial exo-polysaccharides (EPS), however, such a role of the EPS-producing bacteria in the saline environments has rarely been investigated. Pot ...

Salicylic acid for plants.
In reality the use of salicylic acid for plants has several benefits. In 1933, salicylic acid (SA) was first proposed to develop acquired immunity after disease infection. However, most of our knowledge about plant immune signalling has mainly been recent after it was found that salicylic acid (SA) is defence signal derived from within the plant. So what is this novel plant biostimulant? SA show ...

A root-zone soil regime of wheat: physiological and growth responses to furrow irrigation in raised bed planting in northern China
Different irrigation methods in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) result in different water and nutrient use efficiencies and, ultimately, plant growth. A field experiment was conducted during the 2006–2007 and 2007–2008 crop cycles to investigate the effects of furrow irrigated raised bed planting and the effects of flood irrigated conventional planting on growth and productivity in winter wheat. In ...

Hydroponic Spacer, The Solution To Crazy Roots
Among the many diseases that can affect the root zone of the plant, bacterial diseases stand out for being potentially very harmful.. The main problem of these diseases is that there is no effective control of them through chemical treatments, so once the disease takes place it causes severe damage to the crop, reducing production and quality. The most effective way to avoid the negative impact ...

Effects of estimating soil hydraulic properties and root growth factor on soil water balance and crop production
Accurate simulation of plant growth depends not only on plant parameters, but also on soil parameters. Although there is uncertainty in measured soil parameters and root distributions, their effects on simulated plant growth have been much less studied. This study evaluates the simulated responses of six crops, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), maize (Zea mays L.), barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), ...

Power Z Grow liquid growth enhancer increases strawberry yield and nutrition
Fruit growers among other agriculture growers across the world are looking to surmount the challenge of increasing crop production with a dramatic reduction of synthetic agrochemical use and a reduction of environmental nutrient leaching in ground water and surface water sources. Many growers are pursuing ways to integrate more sustainable agriculture practices that will simultaneously enhance ...

Biopesticides Examined for Role in Field Production
Biopesticides deserve respect. Once derided as snake oil, today’s products have proven benefits in suppressing pest organisms. Whether they activate plant defenses, parasitize or inhibit pathogen growth or make the environment less favourable to disease, they can play an integral role in crop protection. While the greenhouse sector first excelled at incorporating biopesticides in ...

8 Types Of Agricultural Sensors For Best Greenhouse Monitoring Systems
Background A greenhouse is a closed environment that provides optimal conditions for plant growth and promotes plant growth by controlling indoor and outdoor environments. A complete greenhouse remote monitoring system first detects indoor environmental elements through various sensors and then uploads the measurement signals to the control platform through wired or wireless methods, and the ...

Six effects of organic matter on maintaining soil fertility
The content of soil organic matter is closely related to the level of soil fertility. Although organic matter only accounts for a small part of the total amount of soil, it plays a significant role in maintaining soil fertility. The manufacturer of organic fertilizer production equipment introduces six important functions of organic matter to maintain soil fertility. 1. Provide nutrition for ...

A New Generation of GMOs
Is synthetic biology on its way to our farms, markets and tables? Thousands of researchers will descend on Boston this fall for an event billed as the world’s largest gathering of synthetic biologists. The field is evolving so rapidly that even scientists working in it don’t agree on a definition, but at its core synthetic biology involves bringing engineering principles to ...
