Genetic Technology Agriculture has historically benefited directly from advances in genetic research. Crop productivity increases at a rate of 3% per year. About half of it is driven by enhanced genetics, with genetic gain rates expected to more than double with the implementation of emerging molecular technologies. For instance, more than 110 and 195 million tons of additional ...
Meanwhile, synthetic biology also helps with production of biosynthetic chemicals. Genetic Technology Agriculture has historically benefited directly from advances in genetic research. ...

That work found that the VSPP could be prohibitively expensive for soybean growers in the affected areas. ASA surveyed soybean producers about their ability to meet the proposed Herbicide Strategy obligations and found that most were not currently meeting the compliance requirements of the proposal. ...
Thirdly, BSF larvae exhibit high levels of fat and protein, rivaling the composition of soybean meals. Moreover, when compared to soybean production, BSF farming can yield significantly higher amounts of protein. ...

Treating farm runoff before it enters watersheds can reduce nutrients that promote overgrowth of algae. In 2017, the dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico broke a record, exceeding an average of 5,380 square miles to reach 8,776 square miles, roughly the size of New Jersey. Dead zones occur when seawater becomes overloaded with nutrients from agricultural runoff and other sources. The nutrients lead ...
Soybean protein isolate is a kind of edible soybean protein product which is processed by using peeling, degreasing, cold pressing soybean cake or low temperature desoluble soybean meal as raw material through dilute alkali extraction, acid precipitation, centrifugal separation, spray drying and other processes. ...
The study, published Dec. 6 in Environmental Research Letters, shows that Midwest farmers who reduced how much they overturned the soil -- known as tilling -- increased corn and soybean yields while also nurturing healthier soils and lowering production costs. ...
We recently welcomed Greg Deim as new senior product manager for our Cab app. I sat down to talk with Greg and found that his love of farming is only matched by his love of technology. ...
Arable has been fortunate to work with early adopters and partner growers across different regions in Argentina as we work to bring our product to market there. As a startup that provides data and analytics on environmental conditions, climatic factors, and crop physiology using an IoT device, our platform is designed for use across many different crops and geographies. ...

In total, each winner will receive over $20,000 in cash and products. Joshua Dill: Did you see the participants taking different approaches? ...
In the age of technology, technology touches everything, even in agricultural settings and situations. Technology in recent years has been used to make things like swine production more efficient, building better livestock facilities with new capabilities, and even in growing the grain necessary for sustaining livestock raising. Technology also has a major hand in improving the quality and ...

The Collegiate Biobased Network (CBN), supported by the United Soybean Board, promotes educational and career connections in the biobased industry for college and university students. There is no cost to join this professional organization, and students will get access to biobased development updates, webinars on current biobased topics, networking and mentoring opportunities, ...
” Brazil is a top exporter of soybean, corn and cotton, Pelaez says, with soy being its top cash crop. During the 2014–2015 season, Brazil produced 97 million metric tons (107 million tons) of soybeans, just a hair shy of the U.S., the world’s leading soybean producer. ...

Growing Fast Latin America currently accounts for just 6 percent of global palm oil production, compared to 85 to 90 percent for Indonesia and Malaysia — but production is growing fast. ...

Bisphenol A (BPA) and cadmium (Cd) pollution exist simultaneously in many regions. However, little information is available regarding the combined effects of BPA and Cd pollution on plants. Plant roots are in direct contact with the soil, which is an important compartment of BPA and Cd. Here, the effects of combined BPA and Cd pollution on soybean seedling roots were evaluated in pot ...
Demand for biofuel, specifically based on biodiesel, should change the composition of Brazilian exportation of soybean agro–industrial system. Studies of agricultural chains have drawn attention to important roles including international and domestic market, international traders, the state and standards used extensively to examine a wide range of the commodities context. ...
When German chemist Justus von Liebig demonstrated in 1847 that the major nutrients that plants removed from the soil could be applied in mineral form, he set the stage for the development of the fertilizer industry and a huge jump in world food production a century later. Growth in food production during the nineteenth century came primarily from expanding ...
From 1950 until 1980, beef and pork production increased more or less apace. Beef production was pressing against the limits of grasslands, however, and more cattle were put in feedlots. ...
In the Huaibei Plain basin, China, soybean is a main crop. During the soybean growth period, rainfall can vary largely and depth to watertable can also vary largely. The amount of water supplied to the soybean rootzone by groundwater affects soybean growth and yield. Accurate simulation of groundwater contributions to soybean rootzone soil moisture (groundwater contribution) can be important ...
