Having a farm today needs more than mere effort and space; it needs creative solutions that conserve resources, maximize output, and assure protection for the crops against rising climate threats. The proper procedure of any agricultural irrigation system can make or break a crop. This very thing makes Puroxi revolutionize the whole concept of how water is managed on ...
Lifeasible, a leading biotechnology company in the agricultural sector, has officially launched its cutting-edge fungal disease control services, marking a significant step forward in eco-friendly crop protection. Fungal diseases are among the most destructive threats to crops, leading to major yield losses and reduced quality in agricultural produce. Traditional chemical-based solutions, while ...
Meanwhile, vitamins and some biological hormones in organic matter can promote plant growth and development. 2. Improve soil physical properties and improve soil structure Humus in organic matter is the main cementing agent of soil aggregates, and soil organic colloid is an indispensable cementing material for the formation of ...
Plant microbial communities mainly include rhizosphere microbial community, phyllosphere microbial community and plant endophyte microbial community. In addition, soil microbial communities are closely related to and have important functions in agroecosystems. ...
Afforestation is an important strategy to enhance terrestrial carbon sink. It alters regional landscapes and affects microbial processes in soil ecosystems. In particular, soil fungi, which play an important role in carbon and nitrogen cycling, could be greatly affected. However, at a watershed scale, the changes of soil fungal communities under afforestation could not only be influenced by host ...

Carbon Robotics, an autonomous robotics company, today unveiled its third-generation autonomous weed elimination robots. The Autonomous Weeder leverages robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), and laser technology to safely and effectively drive through crop fields to identify, target and eliminate weeds. Unlike other weeding technologies, the robots utilize high-power lasers to eradicate weeds ...
After the tarp is removed, we will plant a cover crop mix to suppress any persistent weeds, build organic matter and fertility, and grow deep roots to break up and feed the soil and microorganisms. Sequestering carbon from the air to fight climate change is the cherry on top. If we decide not to harvest cover crop seed, we will terminate by crimping or cutting ...
“We have spent the last 10 years at Heliae, working on solutions in microalgae, providing food to the bacteria in the soil, stimulating the microbiome.

The two-day delegation program involved meetings with central banking, government and business leaders as well as a full day public conference with Banco de Mexico which included the ...
The Southern High Plains of the United States have low annual rainfall. When it does rain, though, intense storms can cause severe soil erosion. Strong winds also strip away valuable topsoil. Usually grown during seasons when primary crops aren’t cultivated, cover crops can include legumes such as pea and hairy vetch, or grassy crops like oats and barley. Cover crops do more than just ...

Where did 2017 go? Now that we are well into the New Year of 2018, this is the year I hope to be making even higher quality compost to spruce up my garden this spring. This article will be dedicated to the use of biochar as a “carbon” source for making the highest quality compost consisting of all the nutrients plants require and teaming them up with beneficial microbes (bacteria ...
Climate scientists puzzled by the traffic of carbon between soil and air may have to think more deeply about the role played by soil microbes − the planet’s smallest inhabitants. One research team has just found that soil microbes could actually lighten the colour of arid land soils, to reflect more light and bounce more radiation energy back into space. Another has identified an ...
As we approach the New Year, we can look forward to a year of great change, both politically and economically, and to a new, more advanced era in agtech development and adoption.
