Consumer attitudes and preferences towards animal feed insect proteins are rapidly evolving, driven by a growing awareness of the environmental and nutritional benefits of insect protein. Insect protein is emerging as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional protein sources in animal feed, and is becoming increasingly popular among livestock farmers and pet food manufacturers. This has created new opportunities for companies operating in the animal feed insect proteins market, but also poses challenges in terms of consumer education and acceptance. The global market for animal feed insect proteins is expected to grow at a rapid pace in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for sustainable protein sources in the livestock and aquaculture industries. Consumers are becoming more aware of the environmental impact of traditional protein sources such as soy and fish meal, and are looking for alternatives that are more sustainable and less resource-intensive. Insect protein is emerging as a viable alternative, due to its high protein content, low environmental footprint, and cost-effectiveness. One of the key drivers of consumer attitudes towards animal feed insect proteins is the growing concern over food security and the need to feed a rapidly growing global population. Insect protein is seen as a sustainable and cost-effective solution to the challenge of producing enough high-quality protein to feed the world’s population. Another driver is the growing interest in alternative protein sources among health-conscious consumers, who are looking for more sustainable and nutritious options. Despite the challenges posed by consumer education and acceptance, the growing demand for animal feed insect proteins presents significant opportunities for companies operating in this space. One of the key opportunities is the growing demand from the aquaculture industry, which is increasingly turning to insect protein as an alternative to fish meal. Insect protein is a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to traditional protein sources, and is being used in a growing number of aquaculture feeds. Another opportunity is the growing popularity of insect-based pet food, which is gaining traction among pet owners who are looking for sustainable and nutritious options for their pets. Insect protein is a rich source of protein, vitamins, and minerals, and is being used in a growing number of pet foods as an alternative to traditional protein sources such as chicken and beef. Consumer Attitudes and Preferences: Despite the growing interest in insect protein, consumer attitudes towards animal feed insect proteins are still evolving. Many consumers are still unfamiliar with the concept of using insects as a protein source, and may be skeptical or hesitant to try insect-based products. In order to overcome this barrier, companies operating in the animal feed insect proteins market will need to focus on consumer education and awareness. One of the key factors influencing consumer attitudes towards insect protein is the perceived “yuck” factor, which is the idea that insects are unappealing or disgusting as a food source. This perception can be overcome by highlighting the nutritional and environmental benefits of insect protein, and by presenting it in a more appetizing and familiar form. Another factor influencing consumer attitudes towards insect protein is the cultural and regional differences in food preferences. In some cultures, insects are a common food source and are widely accepted, while in others they are seen as taboo or even repulsive. Companies operating in the animal feed insect proteins market will need to take these cultural and regional differences into account when developing their products and marketing strategies. In conclusion, consumer attitudes and preferences towards animal feed insect proteins are rapidly evolving, driven by a growing awareness of the environmental and nutritional benefits of insect protein. Companies operating in this space have significant opportunities to capitalize on this trend, but will need to focus on consumer education and acceptance in order to succeed.

The 2015 Annual Harvest Festival was a huge success! We sincerely thank all of our volunteers and all who supported this beloved First UMC Sealy event! Harvest Festival 2015 The Harvest Festival turns 50 this year! This takes us back to 1965, when the Acre Hour program became known as the Harvest Festival. In the mid-50s, the Acre Hour Program gave church members the opportunity to dedicate one (or more) hours of work income to the church. Farmers and ranchers could give one acre of crop or cattle income. The program worked well and provided seed money for the property the church now owns. The Harvest Festival continues this tradition. The bulk of the proceeds from the auction go into a Church Building Fund. Also part of the day is a fellowship meal including homemade baked goods. The men’s and ladies’ groups serve the catered meal while also organizing a Silent Auction, Country Store and Children’s Activities.

Throughout February you can try 2 glasses of Ribero Del Duero for only £12 in all our venues. This week, and as part of our celebration of Ribero Del Duero, we welcome you to Bodegas Felix Callejo*. * Winemakers of the year 2021 by Tim Akin MW "We are a Family Winery, founded in 1989 by Félix Callejo. We are currently the second generation, Cristina, José Félix, Beatriz and Noelia Callejo who continue this exciting legacy." "Our effort and dedication is to represent Sotillo de la Ribera, its soils, its landscape, and those unique places through the wines.” "Our landscape is located in the village of Sotillo de la Ribera, province of Burgos, on the northern edge of the Duero river basin, in a privileged environment, due to its high altitude (830 – 930 m), where the moors of the highest areas, with limestone soils, give way as we follow the erosion of the valley, to gravel soils (old river beds), sandy areas in the pine area, and clays in the lower areas. The winery comprises 27 vineyards distributed along the Sotillo de la Ribera profile and located in different places and different soils, forming a total of 54.8 Ha. The diversity of soils, orientations, altitudes and our respectful winery management, allows us to show our landscape through the varieties with which we work: Tinto Fino, Garnacha, Albillo Mayor and Merlot." "The opportunity to work in other vineyards around the world has meant the beginning of a journey to our origin Sotillo de la Ribera, to look back at our ancestors and the vineyard when the wines were recognized by their village. Since 2000, we have been working under the principles of organic farming: clean, respectful and lively viticulture for the soils. Respect in the vineyard continues in the winery, where we work by gravity and with the natural yeast present in the skin of the grape." At The Tapas Room, you can try 2021 Flores de Callejo. “The search for freshness, for the primary are the reasons that lead us to make Flores de Callejo. Our commitment to freshness is expressed in this wine, fruitiness, liveliness and purity of the most raw Tinto Fino” Flores is the freshest and most primary expression of the Tinto Fino present in the village of Sotillo de la Ribera. It comes from clay-loam soils from our vineyards located between 830 and 850 m. altitude, fresh soils to show the funniest Tinto Fino. Sotillo de la Ribera. La Emilia, La Huelga, Astrales, Jaime and Sandelaisa. TYPE OF SOIL Clay loam soils. Manual harvest in individual boxes. 5 months between barrel and tank.

From fields of wheat where red partridges roamed, there are now rice paddies, home to crayfish, frogs and other amphibians, a playground to the wild boar and the feeding grounds to hundreds of storks. Somehow the storks know when the water will run off the rice paddies and they wait in a single line, as if at a self-service restaurant, waiting for the crayfish to be swept by. Migratory ducks, mostly mallards, also abundantly feed off the rice itself, sometimes amounting to over 10% of the years’ crop! Most of the rice is now sown and treated by tractors but sometimes small crop planes are still necessary - especially when planting is delayed due to weather conditions. The harvest is done with the same machines used for cereals except that to advance in the clay laden rice paddies the harvester is mounted on crawlers (caterpillars), like a military tank. At the time of the harvest it is quite a sight to see hundreds of birds flying at the back and around the big machine gobbling up the crayfish and amphibians as they are churned out of the mud. The fresh water for the rice comes by a canal that crosses several properties. The water itself flows mostly from the “Pego do Alter” dam which is over 40 km away. There are three pivots, irrigated crop circles of 25ha, 40ha and 70ha each. We jokingly call them our UFO landing sites as they resemble exactly that on Google Earth! Golden corn and a nightmarish yearly battle with the wild boar that would greedily help themselves, have given way to large harvests of carrots, onions and potatoes. Pasture land is vital for the cattle and even for the health of the cork trees, the main production of the Herdade. A rotation of around 300ha is planted each year. Seeds, gramineous and leguminous, are carefully selected trying to find that delicate balance between the right food for the animals and the plants that will bring the best out of the cork trees. All of the forests are certified FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Program of Endorsement of Forest Certification), demanding a higher level of economic, social and environmental responsibility.

With plant-based diets on the increase, now might be the time to dig up the lawn and grow your own vegetables. Years ago, it was highly unusual for homeowners not to have a vegetable patch. Whether it was just a strip running alongside the lawn or turning the whole garden into a backyard allotment, post-war austerity and a limited amount of produce in the shops meant it was the only way to get fresh veg and vitamins into the daily diet. However, the arrival of the supermarket changed that, and now we can buy what was once termed ‘seasonal’ produce year-round, thanks to advanced farming methods, high-speed global transportation and rapid refrigeration. But now the wheel has turned full circle and ‘home-grown’ is fast becoming the norm again, either out of necessity or because, in this health-conscious world, there is a hunger to know the food on our plates is free from any artificial interference. Well, if you’re staring at a blank canvas, congratulations, you’ve avoided the back-straining bit. If, however, you want to convert part, or all, of your garden then the best time to start the groundwork is autumn, allowing nature to take its course over the colder months. But if you want to start off with light produce, spring is as good a time as any to start. And start small. Don’t dig it all up and discover you’ve taken on more than you can chew. If you are lifting lawn, cut it into squares, stack it and it will decompose, producing loamy soil and this can be added to the top. Alternatively, you can bury the turf a spade’s depth down and it will feed the soil. Converting an area populated with mature shrubs is best done over late summer to let the soil start the recovery process in the autumn, and its round about October that weeds should be tackled – but not with quick-fix weed killer! If you are looking to plant in a vacant patch of ground, consider covering the area with a black weed-suppressing membrane and, even after weeds have died, do not turn the soil over for at least a couple of weeks and then let the winter weather break down the clods. By spring, the soil will hopefully be fine and powdery – unless it is clay-based, meaning it will be colder and wetter. Therefore, planting needs greater patience although, on the flip side, clay soil can hold on to nutrients better. It’s best to divide your vegetable patch into areas, reason being they become easier to manage and you won’t trample through the patch when you harvest. Raised beds are popular – particularly with chalk or heavy clay soils – but try to keep the sides low so you don’t put off any slug-munching beetles and amphibians. Building raised beds also preserves soil structure and, if you have room for more than one bed, it will make crop rotation easier and deter diseases and soil-borne pests. Lighting is crucial. Don’t plant in full shade – some veg can cope with dappled shade, but most like the sun. Also pick as pot sheltered from the wind if you can. The key to vegetable growing is timing. Wait for spring, making sure the grass is growing and birds are nesting before you start to get busy. It may be best to start with plants that go in and out of the ground within weeks –carrots or salads are best. Many experts feel it’s best to start with potatoes, which condition the soil as they break it down. And the early months of the new year are the best time to buy the first and second early varieties so they can be placed somewhere cool and light to ‘chit’(produce small shoots). Then they can be planted mid-April for lifting before potato blight becomes an issue in late July and August. A good variety to start with is Foremost, an old favourite introduced more than 50 years ago. The round, white-fleshed tubers are firm and waxy when young and retain their fine taste. Carrots can also be sown in April, and if you put the seeds in four-inch drills, this will negate the need to thin the seedlings. Amsterdam Forcing are recommended as they are smooth, colourful and bulk up early. You’ll only get out what you put in. So, give your veg the best start by making sure the soil is right. A pH test kit will help you get the right balance – neutral soil is best so add lime to acid soil or sulphur to alkaline.

By Steve Adler First came the damaging freeze, followed three days later by a welcomed rain. Weather was on every California farmer's and rancher's mind last week. It started on the night of Jan. 17-18, when overnight temperatures plunged to record lows for that date in many parts of the state. In Yuba City, for example, the overnight low hit 17 degrees and in Stockton, the 22-degree low broke a record that dated back to 1963. In the southern San Joaquin Valley, temperatures ranged as low as 28 degrees. Fortunately, most crops, both annual and permanent, had been harvested by mid-January, so dollar losses were minimal. But freeze damage was observed on coastal artichokes and San Joaquin Valley citrus fruit. Farmers said it will be a few weeks before the actual extent of the damage can be known. Monterey County vegetable grower Benny Jefferson said his artichokes were just starting to come back from a frost in December when last week's low temperatures caused more "frost-kissing" of his crop. "So we are back in it again and it will take another five or six weeks to get a cosmetically attractive product. These frost-kissed artichokes actually taste better, but they don't look as good and they have to drop the price in the store," he said. Other seeded lettuce and cole crops were just emerging when the frost hit, causing damage to them as well, the extent of which won't be determined for several weeks. "The freeze pinched off some of the young plants that are coming out of the ground. Also, these tender young plants are favorite food for the birds, so people are out there with different devices to scare birds from their fields," Jefferson said. San Joaquin Valley citrus growers will have to wait a few days to see the extent of damage that was done by the freezing temperatures, according to Bob Blakely, director of industry relations for California Citrus Mutual. Frost protection methods, such as sprinklers and wind machines, helped growers to minimize the damage. "Following a record-setting number of below-freezing nights in December, previously weakened fruit suffered these past two nights," Blakely said on Jan. 18. "The extent of losses cannot be determined immediately, as damage generally appears a few days following a frost." Due to temperature variances throughout the citrus belt ranging as much as four to five degrees, losses were anticipated to vary from grove to grove, depending on the location. The mandarin crop was expected to see more damage than the navel orange crop, because the cold threshold for mandarins is generally 32 degrees, versus a threshold of 28 degrees for larger orange varieties, he said. Blakely said there is currently a "bountiful supply" of navel oranges and that growers were optimistic with the arrival of rain, which enhances the flavor of oranges. By Thursday, everything had changed as a new weather system moved into the state, bringing badly needed precipitation, both in the form of valley rain that replenished parched pastures, fields and orchards, and mountain snow that restarted the buildup of a winter snowpack that up to that point was virtually nonexistent. The series of off-and-on storms was projected to continue for several days. Almond grower Darin Titus, farm manager of Hart Farms in Orland, said that like other farmers in California, he had been waiting for the winter rains to arrive. "Out of this storm right now, realistically, we could use 3 to 5 inches before we see any real significant runoff out of the fields. And that's even taking into consideration the irrigations that we have done up till now. I mean, it is dry," he said. "We're excavating tree sites and I'm doing a bunch of deep ripping on second-generation fields and it's scary how dry it is. So 3 to 5 inches and then we need a solid 10 to 15 inches of rainfall up here to kind of get things back to normal or get us close to average," Titus said. How does moisture in the orchard impact the almond bloom? "We are at the point where we need the soil moisture four to six weeks prior to bloom. We have the start of flush in the almonds and so it's important that we sustain our soil moistures," Titus said. "And then through bloom, ideally, it's nice if we don't have any rain or at least we have some decent weather through the bloom season and then the rain thereafter." Titus said if there is rain during bloom, almond growers will likely have to follow up every seven to 10 days with a fungicide treatment. Glenn County orchardist Mike Vereschagin said he was pleased to see the rain because the ground in his orchards was so dry. He had irrigated several times since December. "I like to have 8 to 9 inches of water to leach the salts out of the root zone and since we haven't had the rains, I've been irrigating to leach the salts out," he said. "In normal years we get enough to leach the salts out, but if you don't do this you get salt burn on the tree." Vereschagin said if the storms continue, enough time remains to fill the soil profile with needed water. But for the growers who haven't irrigated, he said, there will be concern. "We're a month out before we start getting heavy bloom. A month from now, we want to have some good sunshine weather, warm weather for pollination," Vereschagin said. Wheat grower Larry Hunn of Clarksburg, chairman of the California Wheat Commission, called the rain a godsend for wheat farmers, because the extended dry spell delayed maturity and possibly hurt wheat yields. "We sure could have used some rain here two weeks ago," he said. On the other hand, too much rain might not be a good thing for wheat growers either, Hunn said. "If we had 15 inches of rain between now and say the first of April, that would be too much," he said. "I'd like to see 5 to 8 inches between now and March. I think it would probably put us in a good situation." (Steve Adler is associate editor of Ag Alert. He may be contacted at [email protected]. Reporter Kathy Coatney contributed to this report.)

Triticale has become an important small grain addition to the agricultural repertoire designed to cope with the needs of many regions of the world for feed, forage, and sustainable cropping systems (Arsenouk 2015). Triticale grain is suited for human consumption as well as for animal feeding. Although triticale grain is eligible for bread-making and the production of other starch products, it is still not adopted as a food crop due to its unfavourable grain texture and an inferior grain technological baking quality resulting in a high variation in end-use quality. It is necessary to improve its milling and bread-making quality aspects to increase its potential for human consumption (McGoverin et al. 2011; Oettler 2005). However, ongoing research indicates that triticale has the potential for use in human consumption (Martinek et al. 2008). For animal feeding, however, the crop is widely grown and the grain is of high nutritional value for livestock. Triticale grain is a valuable component of poultry and swine fodder. It contains more protein than rye. Moreover digestibility of triticale grain is higher compared to barley and similar to wheat. Furthermore, the nutritive value of triticale protein has been shown to be greater than wheat protein, thanks to the higher concentrations of the limiting amino acids lysine and threonine. However, it should be pointed out that much variation exists between triticale varieties (Myer and Lozano del Rio 2004; Stallknecht et al. 1996). These properties favor triticale for low input farming systems. The whole plant can also be used as forage when harvested green. Triticale can be grown as a single crop or mixed with legumes (Dordas and Lithourgidis 2011), and used in whole-plant silage or for dual purpose forage/grain (Delogu et al. 2002; Haesaert et al. 2002; McGoverin et al. 2011; Sarker et al. 2006). Furthermore, modern triticale varieties have the capacity to produce high amounts of high quality straw with a high water-holding capacity, perfectly suited as bedding material for cattle (Derycke et al. 2017). Finally, triticale can serve as a source of renewable energy in the production of bioethanol, solid biofuel or biogas (McGoverin et al. 2011).

I love tomatoes. Growing up we had a small tomato patch in our backyard garden, full of lovely little green leafy plants growing ever more entangled with the metal cages that propped them up. I remember picking plump little red tomatoes with my father and taking them inside to cut open and eat sprinkled with a bit of salt. A fantastic afternoon treat. In college we tried to grow tomatoes in our massive, lush vegetable garden, but they were always the one plant that didn't take to the dark, moist Washington soil. Our sunflowers, lettuce greens, squashes, zucchinis, green beans, and herbs grew like wild but our tomato plants produced only meager crops by comparison. In Manhattan I've had surprisingly better luck, and my roof and fire escape garden tomatoes frequently outgrow their pots and have to be tied and tethered and propped up left and right due to their size. Keeping them thoroughly watered in the unwavering sunshine of a Manhattan July is the main difficulty, and many midsummer days S and I would alternate hauling multiple gallons of water to the roof both before and after work to keep all the plants hydrated. I typically focus my tomato growing efforts on the smaller varieties, grape, cherry, and pear We've had great luck with the yellow pear heirloom variety. I love the way little tomatoes grow in bunches and develop quickly. Plus they trick my brain into believing I'm an urban farmer. Picking one or two ripe beefsteak tomatoes takes about 5 seconds, but searching through all the bunches and branches on four or five cherry tomato plants and picking a whole pints worth of tiny tomatoes takes at least a few minutes and somehow seems to produce a greater reward. Look at all these tomatoes! I think, admiring the full bowl, we grew these on a roof in Chinatown! I would call tomatoes my favorite vegetable but S always reminds me they're a fruit. I like them prepared pretty much every way but ketchup (you won't be finding many recipes calling for ketchup around here). Marinara, tomato salad, bloody marys, ragu, salsa, sun dried, eaten plain, roasted- I like all forms of tomato. S, however, does not like hot tomatoes. He'll eat a tomato sauce or ragu, of course, being Italian, but he doesn't like roasted tomatoes. Which is a shame, as they're awesome. So this weekend when I found myself with a day on my own I decided I would make something with roasted tomatoes. The only problem is that I regularly have great recipe ideas that involve roasted tomatoes which I resist making since S doesn't like them, and I just didn't know where to start. Roasted tomato pasta salad? Roasted tomato tart? I decided to go with this flatbread because I recently made this white bean-olive hummus for a different flatbread and it was so good I had to share it. I love white bean hummus as an alternative to chickpeas. You can use all white bean or go 50/50 with chickpeas if you prefer. The flavor is similar, but the white beans make a nice change from the usual chick peas. They're also fat free, though of course the tahini and olive oil are not.These flatbreads make a lovely lunch or dinner. Or serve pre-sliced as party finger food! Roasted Zucchini and Cherry Tomato Flatbreads with Goat Cheese and Olives Makes 3 personal size flatbreads with some leftover hummus. 1/2lb summer squash 9oz cherry tomatoes 2 tbsp olive oil 4oz greek olives (green and/or purple) 1 tbsp olive oil 3oz goat cheese 3 flatbreads (such as pocketless pita, or na'an) salt and pepper 4oz pitted greek olives juice of 1/2 a lemon 1 can white beans (I used Great Northerns) 2 cloves garlic 2 tbsp olive oil 2 tbsp tahini Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit. Slice zucchini and summer squash into rounds about 1/6" thick. Toss with 1 tbsp olive oil and arrange on a greased jelly roll pan in a single layer. Similarly, cut tomatoes in half, toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, and arrange, cut side up, in a single layer on separate jelly roll pan. Sprinkle both the squashes and the tomato with salt and pepper, and place in oven next to each other (if one pan needs to go in the back, make it the tomatoes, they cook longer). Roast for 8 minutes, then flip all the squash slices. Roast another 8-10 minutes, until the undersides of the squash slices are beginning to brown. Remove squash pan and set aside. Check the tomatoes, if they're not browning on top, turn the oven up to broil and position the pan under the broiler. Let tomatoes broil about 3-4 minutes, or until beginning to blacken on top. Remove from heat and set aside. While vegetables roast, place all the hummus ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and blitz for 2-4 minutes, until hummus is pretty smooth. Set aside. Chop the remaining 4 oz pitted greek olives.m Set aside. After the vegetables are out of the oven, adjust temperature to 450 and place the flat breads directly on oven rack. Toast for 2-3 minutes, until the bottoms begin to crisp up. Remove from oven. Dollop hummus onto each flatbread and spread out with a spoon, top with zucchini, squash, and roasted tomatoes, sprinkle with chopped olives and crumbled goat cheese. Cut into wedges with a pizza cutter and enjoy!

The Rivers State Government has earmarked the sum of N2Billion for the launch of a Farmer/Fisherman Empowerment Programme. The scheme is designed to buy and distribute farm produce to the people of the state. The Rivers State Governor, His Excellency Barr. Nyesom Wike, in a press conference on Monday in Government House said that, the Government will purchase all agricultural products in the state, for distribution to the less privileged. This is in a move to ease hunger occasioned by the lockdown in the state. “Our goal is to ensure that no agricultural product like Yam, Garri, Plantain, Palm oil and Fish leaves our State during this period. While the farmers and fishermen will make their profits, the less privileged will have enough food supply for their families.” He stated. Governor Wike who said that funds for the COVID-19 intervention are captured in the 2020 budget. He informed the people of the state that the 33-member committee inaugurated earlier today are to oversee the task. The committee is chaired by Dr. Tammy Danagogo, Secretary to the State Government while the commissioner for Agriculture, Dr. Fred Kpakol is the secretary.

We are proud to offer you our 18 Screen Colombia Supremo from a group of only eight small farm holders from San Gil and nearby Bucaramanga. The farms are located at 4,600 feet elevation where growers have spread their arabica crop among the tall-trees of the native forests, doing a wonderful job with the region’s natural shade canopy to protect their coffee plants from excessive sunlight. Just to get to the farms, one has to travel through the Chicamocha Canyon, a winding, 6,500 ft deep ravine, carved by the Chicamocha River. This single origin Colombian is one of our staples here at Lamont Coffee. We have found that while it does have enough body to take milk or sugar, it’s a very nice stand alone coffee. Region -San Gil Varietal -Castillo, Colombia, Caturra & Typica Altitude -4,600 feet Notes -Nectarine, brown sugar, and milk chocolate.

As we head into Spring, the Farmers start planning for the spring planting. In man’s early years, that meant finding a stick to poke a hole in the ground so the seeds could be placed in the hole and covered. While that may have been fine for the small one-family garden, it was ineffective for the large farms we have today. Supplying many people with food, like today’s farmers do, means that plowing and planting has to be more streamlined. Watching shows like Little House on the Prairie, and others that took in a planting period, most of us have seen the hand plow used by farmers in the Old West. It was hooked up to a horse, and the farmer had to not only follow behind the horse, being careful to keep up, but also to force the blade of the plow into the dirt to turn it over. The plow worked, but it was very labor intensive…and in the heat of the day, a man could get heat stroke plowing his field…literally!! The wheeled plow, which was drawn by oxen at first, but later by horses, made possible the northward spread of European agriculture. Finally, the farmer could sit and let the horse and machine do the work. It was still hot in the mid-day sun, but the work wasn’t so labor intensive. The 18th-century addition of the moldboard, which turned the furrow slice cut by the plowshare, was an important advance. The black hard-packed soil in the American Midwest in the mid-19th century challenged the strength of the existing plow. That was when American mechanic John Deere invented the all-steel one-piece share and moldboard. The three-wheel sulky plow followed and finally, with the introduction of the gasoline engine the tractor-drawn plow. Further improvements followed until we had the advanced farming equipment we have today. The plow has come a long way, and the work of a farmer has become a little easier, but it is still hard work, and without the farmers we would have serious food shortages. Thank you to all our farmers!! Don’t forget to thank a farmer today.

Decoupling of Sensible and Latent Loads for Climate Control of Controlled Environment Agriculture. Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) has gained a strong momentum from the inception of LED lighting for cultivation in the early 2000’s in Japan. An ability to create the environment most conducive to cultivation of specific types of crops has proven to be effective in dramatically increasing yields per area; improving the quality of the product; eliminating needs for pesticides and fungicide due to limiting exposure to pathogens and effective IPM practices; and significantly reducing water consumption. Despite these advantages, the sheer amount of energy required for artificial lighting and HVACD systems has been an impediment to a broader dissemination of the indoor cultivation practices…continue read.

A new study has revealed that polyhalite mined at ICL Boulby in East Cleveland is far more environmentally friendly than other fertilisers—with a ‘carbon footprint’ just a fraction of many other products. The study was welcomed by ICL Boulby Vice President Andrew Fulton as ‘another demonstration of the benefits which our unique product can bring to farming worldwide—not only improving crop growth and yields but also helping to protect the planet.’ The Boulby mine is the world’s first and only producer of the unique mineral polyhalite (marketed as Polysulphate) which contains four vital plant nutrients—sulphur, potassium, magnesium and calcium. Already it is being sold across five continents and production is planned to step up to a million tonnes a year by 2020. The study, undertaken by waste and sustainability experts Filkin and Co measured carbon footprint as an estimated value of various fertilisers’ global warming potential. In the case of polyhalite it was just a twentieth of the level produced by ammonium nitrate fertiliser. Explains Andrew Fulton “There is increasing interest in knowing the carbon footprints of products in farming and in food supply chains. Retailers and consumers want to compare the ecological impact of foods. They want to look at every input and activity all the way through the production process from field to fork. “A growing proportion of farmers and growers are interested in the carbon footprint of the inputs they use. Minimising carbon footprint from fossil fuel-generated energy is one of the criteria used by farming and food production accreditation standards to differentiate sustainable farming businesses from others and is essential for organic systems. “The Polysulphate we produce at Boulby has a low carbon footprint because it is a natural product. It is just mined, crushed and screened without any further energy-intensive chemical processes. There are no additional processes, such as flotation or crystallization, which are used to create other fertilisers, so energy and water use in Polysulphate production is far less. In addition, there are no by-products to deal with which also contributes to its small ecological footprint. “For farmers and growers, especially those in organic production or accredited to an international standard of sustainability, the news that Polysulphate, when compared with other fertilisers, has the lowest carbon footprint is very welcome. It means that as well as giving precise, balanced and effective nutrition to crops, it is good for the future of planet earth.” |cookielawinfo-checkbox-analytics||11 months||This cookie is set by GDPR Cookie Consent plugin.

How To Create A Fall Garden Fall is a beautiful time to plant winter vegetables. Many people garden in spring and summer, but in southern California, we are blessed with great weather where it allows us to garden year round. There are plenty of vegetables that can be planted to get ready for the winter and appropriately they are called 'winter vegetables!' I recently planted some carrots, beets, turnips, kohlrabi, swiss chard, dandelions, lettuce and artichokes. The garden always needs a little bit of preparation where you add some compost and top soil to the existing soil. If the soil is too wet, wait a few days for the soil to dry. Otherwise, clay particles stick together, which can damage the soil structure. To achieve best results for an edible garden, you need full sun with adequate air circulation and good drainage. If your location does not have full sun all day, try to plant where southern and western sun exposure is at a premium. Vegetables and herbs grow easily from seeds. I usually plant both seeds and small plants. The root vegetables, like beets, carrots, and turnips are best planted from seeds since they grow in the ground and it is hard to transport those plants. Before planting seeds, loosen soil to a 12 inch depth. Add the compost and the top soil. Rake the top to make it even. Depending on the directions on the packets of the seeds you are planting, dig a half inch to two inches deep troughs along the bed where you are planting and arrange your seeds along the troughs. Cover with the top soil. Press the soil gently on top of the seeds. Water thoroughly. Water every few days until established.

More than 20 hectares of barley and 30 hectares of wheat burned as a result of a vegetation fire in Anenii Noi district, not far from Calfa village. The operation to extinguish the fire lasted for about five hours, IPN reports. The General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations said that a person called the 112 Service and informed that an extended area of dry vegetation caught fire. Owing to the wind, the fire spread swiftly to the fields. Six firefighting teams struggled to contain the fire. About 50 hectares of barley and wheat and dry vegetation were destroyed by the fire. Firefighters urge the population to strictly obey the fire safety rules, especially when the temperatures are high and humidity is at a low level. The citizens are urged to avoid using fire close to fields, forests and recreational places. - Pensions to be indexed by 6% in 2024 - Deoligarchization plan approved by Commission for European Integration - Moldova and Romania agree to interconnect national energy and gas systems - Japan offers Moldova a grant to support farmers - Media literacy measures to fight disinformation discussed at regional forum in Chisinau

A plant that has a determinate growth pattern will grow to its full size and stop growing, while an indeterminate plant will continue to grow for as long as it can. Determinate plants are used in agriculture because they lack the ability to produce seeds or reproduce, so farmers are able not only maximize their yield but also preserve them with indoor farming techniques. The “what is the difference between determinate and indeterminate growth?” is a question that I have seen asked many times. The answer to this question is that plants with determinate growth grow in a predictable manner, while plants with indeterminate growth grow in an unpredictable manner. The major criteria to distinguish between determinate and indeterminate tomatoes are the duration and type of development. Plants of determinate kinds don’t need to be staked at all. Indeterminate cultivars produce vines that never top off and continue to produce until cold kills them. What is the difference between determinate and indeterminate growth in light of this? Determinate tomatoes, sometimes known as “bush” tomatoes, are types that reach a compact height of 3 to 4 feet. When fruit develops on the top bud, determinates cease growing. Indeterminate tomatoes will continue to grow and produce fruit until cold kills them. They may grow up to 12 feet tall, while 6 feet is the average height. What does it mean to be determinate in plants? Determinate tomatoes are kinds that develop to a certain size and ripen all of their fruit in a short amount of time, generally 2 weeks. Because determinate tomato types do not continue to increase in length during the growing season, they are commonly referred to as “bush” tomatoes. What does indeterminate growth of a plant imply in this context? : plant development in which the primary stem extends continuously without being restricted by a terminal inflorescence or other reproductive structure also: growth characterized by blossoming from the lateral or base buds to the center or topmost buds in a sequential order — compare determinate growth. How can you know if a tomato is determinate or indeterminate? The leaves on the stem of determinate tomatoes are usually closer together, giving them a bushier appearance. Indeterminate types have more widely spread leaves that resemble vines. Examine the flowering and fruiting plants. Answers to Related Questions In medical words, what does indeterminate mean? 1a: not clearly or exactly specified or fixed: ambiguous b: unknown ahead of time. c: not leading to a clear conclusion or outcome. Are people determined or indecisive? Hair that grows indefinitely, as seen on the heads of humans, is uncommon among animals. Hairs with a certain growth pattern are prone to wear and must be replaced on a regular basis, a process known as molting. Is the Cherry Tomato a determinate or an indeterminate variety? Types of Cherry Tomatoes The majority of cherry tomatoes are vining, indeterminate cultivars, although determinate varieties are also available. Indeterminate cherry tomatoes continue to develop and set fruit all summer until frost kills the plant in the autumn. What kind of plant continues to grow indefinitely? Triffids are plants that never stop growing! Is it true that fish continue to develop until they die? The majority of fish are what are known as indeterminate growers. This implies that, unlike humans, they will continue to develop until death. Do Determinate tomatoes yield throughout the year? Indeterminate tomatoes will continue to grow and produce fruit until frost kills them in the autumn. This kind of tomato blooms, sets fresh fruit, and ripens fruit throughout the growing season, giving you more time to harvest. What is it that never stops growing? Why do our ears and noses continue to grow? While the rest of our bodies diminish with age, our noses, earlobes, and ear muscles continue to grow. This is due to the fact that they’re largely made up of cartilage cells, which divide more as we get older. Is the beefsteak tomato a determinate or an indeterminate variety? Because beefsteak tomato varieties are trained up a support, they will need tying in. Because beefsteak tomatoes are mostly indeterminate, you may prune the auxiliary shoots to encourage better branching. Cucumbers are either determinate or indeterminate. Cucumbers can be determinate – grow, bloom, set fruit and mature all at the same time, or indeterminate – grow, bloom, set fruit & mature continually throughout the growing season. Bush cucumbers grow on short vines which mean the plants are compact. Bush cucumbers are great in containers. What is the definition of a determinate growth habit? 1: plant development in which the main stem terminates in an inflorescence or other reproductive structure and ceases to extend endlessly, with only branches from the main stem exhibiting similar growth restrictions. also: development characterized by blossoming from the center or topmost bud to the lowermost bud in a consecutive order Why do people have such a set rate of growth? The fusion of our bones’ growth plates is caused by a high level of estrogen in the blood. The growth centers of long bones are essentially closed by this fusion, rendering them unable to react to the hormones that trigger growth. What plant characteristics cause ambiguous growth? The Formation of the Plant Body and Apical Meristems Plants that grow indeterminately for a long time, such as ivy and juniper, have a minimal number of initials in each meristem layer, possibly three. Is Early Girl a determinate or indeterminate tomato? Early Girl is a tomato cultivar that grows indeterminately, meaning it produces flowers and fruit until it is killed by frost or another external factor (as opposed to a determinate cultivar, which grows to a limited, predefined shape and is most productive for one large harvest before dying or tapering off). Is the moneymaker tomato a determinate or an indeterminate variety? Indeterminate tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum) keep growing throughout the summer, providing a lengthy season of delicious tomatoes. One kind that yields fruit for such a long time is the ‘Moneymaker’ variety. What is the definition of determinate sentencing? A court’s determination of a convicted offender’s sentence is known as determinative sentencing. For example, rather than “up to two years,” determinate sentencing would see an offender condemned to two years in jail, allowing for an early release. Is it necessary to prune indeterminate tomatoes? Tomato plants that are indeterminate continue to develop and produce new stems and fruit until the end of the season. Only indeterminate tomato plants need trimming on a regular basis. You’ll get a healthy, vigorous plant with fewer but bigger fruit if you trim out all of the suckers. Is it determinate or indeterminate if grape tomatoes are determinate or indeterminate? Grape tomato plants may reach a height of 4 to 5 feet and come in both determinate and indeterminate kinds. The 4-foot-high “Sweet Olive” tomato cultivar is a determinate type, but the similarly sized “St. Nick” variety is an indeterminate type.

Optika Solutions gave its support and expertise in big data analytics to assist a group of students from the University of Western Australia (UWA) in their ground-breaking research to combat the Whitefly. The Whitefly is an invasive pest found in warm and tropical climates that presents major problems in crop protection. Whiteflies and the viruses they carry can infect many host plants, including agricultural crops (particularly cassava and beans) and palms. These problems are complicated by difficulties in classifying and detecting new Whitefly biotypes. Proper diagnosis of plant diseases depends on using sophisticated molecular techniques to detect and characterize the viruses and Whiteflies which are present in a crop. Worldwide economic losses from transmission of viruses and general damage from the Whitefly are estimated in the hundreds of millions of dollars annually. Aside from the economic impact of crop damage, the impact on food supply of critical stable food crops has a significant impact on global food security. Students at UWA have worked to develop a database which will help farmers around the world identify the Whitefly pest. With the assistance of data scientists from Optika Solutions, they were able to accurately document their findings with the right statistical and programming knowledge needed to create such a database. The database created, www.whiteflybase.org made is to the 2015 WAITTA Incite Awards finals and has become another important weapon in the global battle against the Whitefly. Optika Solutions employ staff who have a wide range of expertise in both programming and statistics. We are experts in our field and can assist many businesses, companies and research teams with statistical and programming knowledge. We were very proud to have worked with the Whitefly Base team at UWA in their quest to manage this global problem. Want to Know More?

YAP, FSM. Steven Young-Uhk, Coordinator, Cooperative Research and Extension. Yap CRE conducted a three-day workshop on chicken farming between August 3 and 5. Twenty-seven participants including extension agents, agriculture professionals, farmers, men and women attended the workshop. On the first day, participants learned about best practices on caring for a day-old chicks, feeding and caring of pullets, and laying hens. Additionally, Yap Small Business Development Center made a presentation and held discussions on the cost/benefit analysis of raising chickens for eggs in Yap. On the second day, hands-on training on local feed processing for laying hens was provided. The 3rd day of the workshop was devoted to field trip in which participants were introduced to several family chicken farms, giving them firsthand information about the layout, housing designs, types of waterers and feeders, litter materials, and different ways for nesting and roosting. The second workshop on food processing was conducted from August 16 to 18. Altogether 44 participants including extension staffs, agriculture professionals, school teachers, business owners, food processors and farmers attended this workshop. This three-day event exposed participants to method of processing breadfruit into flour, local method of preserving breadfruit through fermentation called mar, and uses of flour in several recipes. Several products made from breadfruit flour, taro flour and banana flour were on display. Information on breadfruit including propagation methods, uses and value-addition, marketing, and nutritional and health benefits were also presented. The Western Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (WSARE) through the College of Micronesia-Land Grant Program supported these workshops.

When it's sunny outside, you've got a couple of good friends in tow, and a little extra cash to spend on a fun few hours, there are few activity options that are as fun as golf. Whether you're a serious player attempting to master his or her backswing, or a complete newbie who's just bought a set of clubs, working your way through a golf course is a great way to spend an evening. Before you pick a course to play at, however, it's important that you know all about the different types of golf courses so that you can make the most out of your experience. In this article, we'll do just that by introducing you to the three principal types of golf courses: links, parklands, and deserts. By far the most common slang term to refer to a golf course (“hit the links”), the word links actually technically refers to a specific type of golf course. Such a golf course is one that is built on sandy land, with narrow strips of fairway. It allows the natural landscape and environment to dictate the look and layout of the course. The consequence of this is that the roll and pitch of the fairways are consistent with the natural features of whatever geographic location the course is in. In addition, wind can be a big factor on these courses due to the fact that no artificial structures are built up to protect the course from the wind. Most purists will pick 18 holes on a links course above any other type of course. A parkland course, in stark contrast to a links course, is very artificial and man-made. The builders of the course will intentionally alter the lay of the land, including everything from natural vegetation to elevation changes, in order to make the course more fun. The grass is greener and better manicured and the wind is less of a factor due to a buildup of trees on either side of the fairway. Most of the golf courses found in the United States are parkland courses, given the fact that the natural environment is rarely suitable for a links course. Last but not least, we have the desert course. This type of golf course is exactly what it sounds like: a golf course built in the desert. Much irrigation is required to keep the grass green, which will stick out like a sore thumb in the presence of the rest of the area's natural environment. Use this guide from GolfDay to find courses of all of the above three types around the US. Different Types of Golf Courses, Explained Now that you know the different types of golf courses out there, you know which one you would find the most enjoyment playing on. Your location may often limit you to a parkland course, but if you have the option, playing on a links or desert course can really complete your golf repertoire.

One of the most complex spirits in the world (yes, whisky) is made from only four key ingredients - grain, yeast, water and time (and more often than not, a lot of it). Depending on the grain the distiller chooses – barley, wheat, corn, rye – one gets a particular style of whisky. For example when 51% corn is used it’s a Bourbon, when 51% rye is used it’s a Rye Whiskey and when 100?rley is used it is called a malt whisky. A Scotch whisky can only be called a malt whisky when the distiller uses 100% malted barley. In fact, strict Scottish regulations dictate that: ‘Single Malt Scotch Whisky means a Scotch Whisky produced from only water and malted barley at a single distillery by batch distillation in pot stills.’ Why barley? Good question! Long before “local” became a buzzword, producers – irrespective of whether they were making whisky in Scotland or mezcal in Mexico – had to rely on raw material that was abundantly available in their vicinity. Challenging weather conditions in Scotland meant that the most hardy grain to thrive in that landscape was barley. And so, it became the most widely used grain and the natural choice for whisky in Scotland. Barley is also an easier grain to ‘malt’ than others and this too went a long way in it becoming the signature grain and style for malt whiskies. Today, fewer than 10 Scottish distilleries conduct their own malting, Balvenie, Bowmore, Highland Park, Laphroaig and Springbank amongst them. And irrespective of where the barley comes from, maltsters have very firm ideas on what defines the quality of barley: · High starch content (as it yields more alcohol) · Low protein content (lower the protein, higher the starch, and thus more alcohol) · Low nitrogen content (low nitrogen = low protein, and you get the idea) · High likelihood of germination · Easy to mill and mash · Well-ripened, plump and dry Varieties of Barley Until the 1950s only two barley varieties dominated the market: Spatt Archer and Plumage Archer. Then several hybrid varieties began to appear. Each was superseded by further new varieties that yielded increased alcohol levels and could withstand weather and disease. There are nearly 5,500 strains of barley, of which only 10 have been approved for making Scotch malt whisky. All 10 strains were developed from the same original barley (Hordeum distichon) and so changing the variety is broadly not considered to have an effect on flavour. The popular argument is that distilling involves such high level of alcohol that any individual barley flavour might disappear in the process. Needless to say, there are also those who hold the view that the older, low-yielding barley strains such as Golden Promise do have an impact on the spirit’s texture. Distilleries such as Bruichladdich and Springbank in fact make a pretty big deal about the provenance of their grain. A boost from science Taking a stroll away from Scotland, there is a whole other world of makers who use barley in their whisky… albeit with different rules. In fact, American whiskeys as an example only need to use 51?rley in their mash to be called a malt. Several distillers are excited by the idea of how attention to a raw ingredient can change the idea of whiskey making. How the complexity of a whisky can be influenced by more than increasing the age or changing the cask. Recently, barley experimentation got a boost from genetic science. A group of US researchers have successfully mapped the barley genome! An exercise that took nearly a decade now shows how to grow a better grain. Will this unlock secrets to deeper-rooted changes? What do you think?

Ah the beautiful and tasty honey, a part of my life I can’t think myself without. But it looks like there are a couple of problems in the honey making heaven. The worker bees have become quite tired of doing everything the Queen Bee tells them to do. So, to teach them a lesson, the Queen decides to simply take off and leave them all by themselves to take care of everything. From that moment the panic starts and the bees just stop working as they don’t know what to do next! Suddenly more and more tasks start building up, and that is where you came in. You must show the Queen that the bees can take care of themselves with a slight help from you and a trick or two from the Mother Nature herself. Now you must work hard to plant, water, and harvest honey from flowers in your garden plot. You will use the honey that you gather to fulfill orders in your shop. Customers will be coming in the shop and have different demands for you to fulfill. Every flower in your garden produces different honey. The customers will ask you for honey of a specific flower or a mix flower honey. In the first case you will collect the honey that the customer which is waiting in line first wants. You need to fill up the jars of honey and in time. If you collect honey that is not asked of you, that honey goes in a different jar, where multiple flavors of honey are put together. At the beginning of the game you are given three plots to seed your flowers. You get your seeds from your storage, where they are kept through the whole game. Some plots will have an image of a flower on them and you will get a bonus harvest when you plant that type of flower in the plot. After you put the seeds the flower needs to grow, but it won’t grow all by its own. You have to nurture it and take care of it, with everything it needs. First there is the most important thing, and that is watering the plants. The flowers will ask from time to time, to be watered, and clicking on the water drop icon will send bees to water it. If only it was that simple… You will get a couple of times lucky and you won’t have to do anything else, until the drop of honey appears on the flower for you to collect it. But there will be times when everything is working against you. You will be attacked by different bugs which are trying to steal your honey or seeds or eat your flowers and you have to be prepared for these cases. After the honey is collected the flowers will start dying and eventually leave seeds behind themselves so you can plant new flowers from those seeds. The seeds go in the storage department after you click on them for later usage. The number of seeds that you end the level with are what you begin the next level with so you have to be careful about what you plant and when so you are ready to play the next round, so make sure that you collect all of the seeds that are left behind by the flowers. Luckily, the game offers a few power-ups here and there that prove to be helpful. Finding the missing parts of a clock will allow you extra time. Gathering water droplets and a cloud symbol will bring down the rain, and with it faster growing times and automatic watering. Beans and the pod turn into extra flower seeds. This will add additional life to the game and challenge to that can help you in times of need or just boost up your score. After the game starts to evolve you will have to watch on your upgrade possibilities and to balance them, because you have to have the right amount of bee workers for your garden as you will definitely be buying additional plots. Make sure you don’t get too much of one side. The most amazing thing about this game is definitely the graphics. Because I played it on a new machine I didn’t feel any distortions or lacks in 3D graphics which looked beautifully. Surely older machines will feel the ‘heavy’ graphic requirements of this game, but what can you do… There are four locations in the game and 11 levels per location to play, and the first ones are just too easy, but later the challenge will be overwhelming for some players, so keep an eye on what you are doing and help the bees to finish their tasks.

I was having a discussion with my wife, and her father this morning about organic foods. My wife is a big proponent of them, I am skeptical of them, and my father-in-law really does not have an opinion either way, but is curious. In this respect, I think it was a good start to the discussion. We went on for a little while discussing back and forth the pros and cons of what we each knew on the subject, when finally my wife sat down at the laptop in an effort to back up her side of the discussion with detailed facts. The site she came across, seemed to me to be a rather good authority on many subjects, and one which I think can be considered a trusted source: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/organic-food/NU00255 The section she read from seemed to back up what both of us were saying about the methods of organic farming, but at least from what she read it did not go into the absolute benefits of “going organic”. Conventional vs. organic farming The word “organic” refers to the way farmers grow and process agricultural products, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy products and meat. Organic farming practices are designed to encourage soil and water conservation and reduce pollution. Farmers who grow organic produce and meat don’t use conventional methods to fertilize, control weeds or prevent livestock disease. For example, rather than using chemical weedkillers, organic farmers conduct sophisticated crop rotations and spread mulch or manure to keep weeds at bay. Here are other differences between conventional farming and organic farming: Conventional farmers Organic farmers Apply chemical fertilizers to promote plant growth. Apply natural fertilizers, such as manure or compost, to feed soil and plants. Spray insecticides to reduce pests and disease. Use beneficial insects and birds, mating disruption or traps to reduce pests and disease. Use chemical herbicides to manage weeds. Rotate crops, till, hand weed or mulch to manage weeds. Give animals antibiotics, growth hormones and medications to prevent disease and spur growth. Give animals organic feed and allow them access to the outdoors. Use preventive measures — such as rotational grazing, a balanced diet and clean housing — to help minimize disease. But thanks to my slightly obsessive intrest in many skeptical topics, I had heard an episode of Skeptoid on the subject, and thansk to Brian Dunning I knew just what site/podcast to show as my “rebutal”: http://skeptoid.com/episodes/4019# First the a bit of the background info from Skeptoid: Organic food is a conventional food crop (genetically exactly the same plant variety as the regular version) but grown according to a different set of standards. In this sense, organic food is really the same thing as kosher food. The food itself is identical, but it’s prepared in such a way to conform to different philosophical standards. Just as kosher standards are defined by rabbinical authorities, the USDA’s National Organic Program sets the requirements for foods to bear a “certified organic” label. Basically it forbids the use of modern synthetic fertilizers and pesticides in favor of organic equivalents, and for animals it requires that they have not been kept healthy through the use of antibiotics. There are other rules too, and the basic goal is to require the use of only natural products throughout the growth, preparation, and preservation stages. And the specific portion of the podcast/article that I had in mind during this debate. Organic foods are healthier to eat. Did you ever wonder why Chinese drink only hot tea? They boil it to kill the bacteria. Most local Chinese farming uses organic methods, in that the only fertilizers used are human and animal waste: Without being boiled, it’s basically a nice cup of E. coli. In the case of China and other poor Asian nations, the reason for organic farming has less to do with ideology and more to do with lack of access to modern farming technology. The National Review reports that Americans believe organic food is healthier by a 2-1 margin, despite the lack of any evidence supporting this. When you take the exact same strain of a plant and grow it in two different ways, its chemical and genetic makeup remain the same. One may be larger than the other if one growing method was more efficient, but its fundamental makeup and biochemical content is defined by its genes, not by the way it was grown. Consumer Reports found no consistent difference in appearance, flavor, or texture. A blanket statement like “organic cultivation results in a crop with superior nutritional value” has no logical or factual basis. Some supporters of organic growing claim that the danger of non-organic food lies in the residues of chemical pesticides. This claim is even more ridiculous: Since the organic pesticides and fungicides are less efficient than their modern synthetic counterparts, up to seven times as much of it must be used. Organic pesticides include rotenone, which has been shown to cause the symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease and is a natural poison used in hunting by some native tribes; pyrethrum, which is carcinogenic; sabadilla, which is highly toxic to honeybees; and fermented urine, which I don’t want on my food whether it causes any diseases or not. Supporters of organics claim that the much larger amounts of chemicals they use is OK because those chemicals are all-natural. But just because something is natural doesn’t mean that it’s safe or healthy — consider the examples of hemlock, mercury, lead, toadstools, box jellyfish neurotoxin, asbestos — not to mention a nearly infinite number of toxic bacteria and viruses (E. coli, salmonella, bubonic plague, smallpox). When you hear any product claim to be healthy because its ingredients are all natural, be skeptical. By no definition can “all natural” mean that a product is healthful. Consider the logical absurdity proposed by those who claim conventional growers produce less healthful food. To the organically minded, conventional growers are evil greedy corporations interested only in their profit margin. What’s the best way to improve the profit margin? To buy less pesticides and fertilizer. This means they must use far more advanced and efficient products. The idea that pesticides leave dangerous residues is many decades out of date. Food production is among the most regulated and scrutinized of processes, and today’s synthetic pesticides and fertilizers are completely biodegradable. They’re supported by decades of studies that demonstrate their total safety. In the United States, 2006 brought two major outbreaks of E. coli, both resulting in deaths and numerous illnesses, ultimately traced to organically grown spinach and lettuce. According to the Center for Global Food Issues, organic foods make up about 1% of all the food sold in the United States, but it accounts for 8% of E. coli cases. And while Brian Dunning goes into a good bit more detail, and a few other issues on this topic, the point we had been debating was health more than anything, so I won’t republish his entire article here at this time, but I’d highly recommend checking out not only this episode, but many other episodes of his podcast as well… On a final note, as I was writting this up I noticed a bit of the article my wife had found,but had not scrolled down far enough to read yet, which I think is quite relevant to the topic, and doesw what I concider a VERY good job summarizing the issue of organic vs conventional farming / food. Organic food: Buy or bypass? Many factors may influence your decision to buy — or not buy — organic food. Consider these factors: - Nutrition. No conclusive evidence shows that organic food is more nutritious than is conventionally grown food. And the USDA — even though it certifies organic food — doesn’t claim that these products are safer or more nutritious. - Quality and appearance. Organic foods meet the same quality and safety standards as conventional foods. The difference lies in how the food is produced, processed and handled. You may find that organic fruits and vegetables spoil faster because they aren’t treated with waxes or preservatives. Also, expect less-than-perfect appearances in some organic produce — odd shapes, varying colors and perhaps smaller sizes. In most cases, however, organic foods look identical to their conventional counterparts. - Pesticides. Conventional growers use pesticides to protect their crops from molds, insects and diseases. When farmers spray pesticides, this can leave residue on produce. Some people buy organic food to limit their exposure to these residues. Most experts agree, however, that the amount of pesticides found on fruits and vegetables poses a very small health risk. - Environment. Some people buy organic food for environmental reasons. Organic farming practices are designed to benefit the environment by reducing pollution and conserving water and soil. - Cost. Most organic food costs more than conventional food products. Higher prices are due to more expensive farming practices, tighter government regulations and lower crop yields. Because organic farmers don’t use herbicides or pesticides, many management tools that control weeds and pests are labor intensive. For example, organic growers may hand weed vegetables to control weeds, and you may end up paying more for these vegetables. - Taste.Some people say they can taste the difference between organic and nonorganic food. Others say they find no difference. Taste is a subjective and personal consideration, so decide for yourself. But whether you buy organic or not, finding the freshest foods available may have the biggest impact on taste.

Many gardeners have given up on the idea of a garden since they lack space, time or lots of experience. However, if growing crops is the interest of yours container gardening could be your solution. Container gardens allow you to enjoy"playing in the dirt" without investing a great deal of money or time. You can plant a container garden with any plant that would grow outside. The secret is to think of some creative ideas for your container garden. Containers are fantastic for beginning gardeners, people who have limited space or anyone who wishes to dress up their porch or patio. They may be implanted with a single plant or a combination of plants depending on the appearance you are trying to achieve. Many gardeners change out the plants that they grow to ensure nonstop color throughout the year. Images by pinterest.com

Moderate drought conditions are mostly in the southern two-thirds of Wisconsin. Most of Polk County, as well as parts of neighboring Burnett, Barron, Dunn and St. Croix counties, are also in moderate drought. Nearly the entire state is experiencing abnormally dry conditions, with pockets of central, northern, and eastern Wisconsin not listed on the drought monitor. Drought conditions expanded to a quarter of the state from only a fraction of a percent a week ago, according to the Drought Monitor. In addition, abnormally dry conditions expanded from about two-thirds of the state to nearly 90%. The U.S. Department of Agriculture said that unusually warm temperatures east of the Mississippi River combined with increasing deficits in precipitation and lower stream flows were drying out soil across most of Wisconsin. Because of those conditions, the Drought Monitor greatly expanded drought and dry conditions to its report this week. Most of the Midwest is experiencing the same issue during a crucial part of the crop-growing season. Short-term impacts to agriculture and grasslands are expected for the northwestern quarter of Wisconsin, an area that is roughly north of Highway 29 and west of the Wisconsin River. These impacts typically last fewer than six months, according to the USDA. The USDA said that historically, abnormally dry conditions lead to lower water levels, burn bans, yellow or brown lawns, an increase in irrigation, outdoor water bans in some municipalities, and crops that are stressed, especially during growing season. Moderate drought impacts typically include higher hay prices and increased sales of livestock.

Every month, ‘Whose Wine is it Anyway?’ profiles a German winemaker to give you a behind-the-vines look at the world of German wine. This month, we’re highlighting Dominik Meyer of Moselland. Based in the Mosel, Moselland is one of the largest Riesling producers in Germany, producing wine from dozens of small growers across four winegrowing regions. Meet Dominik Meyer Regions: Mosel, Nahe, Rheinhessen, and Pfalz “Tastes are different around the world. Our objective is to create wines with delicate aromas and harmonious flavors for wine lovers worldwide.” – Dominik Meyer Moselland’s dedication to its growers can be traced back to the 19th century when growers from around the Mosel joined to form small wine growing cooperatives. These groups originated out of economic necessity, with the idea that growers could work more efficiently by working together. Based in the heart of the Mosel Valley in Bernkastel-Kues, Moselland itself was founded in 1968 as a result of a merger between a few smaller sub-regional cooperatives. In its earliest years, Moselland focused on its namesake, the Mosel region, spanning vineyards in the valleys of the rivers Mosel, Saar and Ruwer. The 21st century saw the cooperative expand beyond its home region to the Nahe, Pfalz, and Rheinhessen. Today, Moselland allows for small vineyard owners to benefit from the expertise and international reach of the cooperative. Winemaker Dominik Meyer’s roots are also in the Mosel. He was born and raised in a winemaking family in the small village of Wintrich in the Mosel River Valley, working for Moselland directly after graduating from secondary school as an apprentice. His entire career has been spent at Moselland, and in 2016, he was promoted to Head Winemaker. While officially known as “Winemaker,” Meyer oversees much more at Moselland. He works with both the production and sales teams to determine the best taste profiles for its wines. Meyer also runs special winemaking projects, including managing Moselland’s Steep Slope program and single vineyard wine production. Along with the winemaking team, Meyer sets the entire cooperative’s strategy and philosophy for production, which is then passed along to every grower and winemaker to create harmony across all of Moselland’s wines during each vintage. Meyer’s passion for winemaking doesn’t stop at his role at Moselland. He received his Master’s of Viticulture in 2018, taking over his father’s small family winery shortly thereafter. He has also been a jury member at the Chamber of Agriculture since 2017, participating in official wine award tastings. Moselland is the largest Riesling producer in Germany, with approximately 2,000 hectares dedicated to the variety. While Riesling dominates the majority of Moselland’s offerings, growers also cultivate Germany’s other celebrated grape varieties. Moselland is synonymous with quality, and each and every one of its wine growers applies the best viticultural practices to produce the finest wines. This begins in the vineyard, with the growers consulted by experts in vineyard management from planting to harvest. Once the grapes are delivered to the pressing stations set up next to the vineyards, Moselland’s highly qualified staff take over, using the most up-to-date equipment during the production and vinification process. Moselland’s viticultural team works with the growers from vineyard management to the selection of varieties and the implementation of specific quality programs, like the Steep Slope program Meyer oversees. As one of the largest producers of Riesling in the world, the grape is the heart of Moselland’s production. The cooperative produces 2.5 million cases of Riesling annually, reflecting the distinctive taste of grapes grown on the steep slopes of the Mosel, the diverse soils of the Nahe, the sunny plains of the Pfalz, and the rolling hills of Rheinhessen. While a typical estate is likely to produce four or five different wines in a year, Moselland produces over 1,000 different wines, exported to more than 25 countries. Just as the cooperative welcomes a diverse lineup of growers across the region, Moselland’s wines cater to consumers of all kinds. Whether a branded wine, control brand, or private label brand, each of Moselland’s wines exude the passion of the cooperative. This unique intersection between variety, approachability and quality has led to Moselland’s success, with its wines gaining national and international reputation over the years. The collaborative spirit of Moselland continues past its winegrowers to partnerships with other wine companies. The well-known Clean Slate wine brand is the fruitful result of a partnership between Moselland and Winebow, a leading American importer of fine wines. Clean Slate began as a single Riesling bottling from grapes sourced from select vineyards throughout the Mosel and recently expanded to include Clean Slate Rosé, made from Pinot Noir from the Nahe. From Riesling to Rosé, all of the Moselland’s offerings are unmistakable, boasting a fresh and lively flavor profile.

Let us worry about keeping it maintained and beautiful! Lawn Care Pro Tip The "One-Third Rule" You may have heard of the ‘one-third rule’ in reference to lawn mowing. This rule says that you should never remove more than one-third of the leaf blade during any one lawn mowing. For example, the recommended mowing height for Saint Augustine is 3-3.5 inches. Therefore, the height of the grass should not exceed 4.5 inches before it is mowed back to 3-3.5 inches. Here’s a simple explanation of why the one-third rule of lawn mowing is beneficial: Turfgrasses, like other green plants, manufacture their own food by the process of photosynthesis. This process utilizes sunlight, which is absorbed through the leaf of the grass plant, to convert carbon dioxide from the air into sugars. When more than one-third of the leaf blade is removed during a single mowing, there is suddenly less leaf area remaining to absorb sunlight and continue the process of photosynthesis. Consequently, the grass plant produces less food for itself, resulting in a weaker plant that’s susceptible to disease and insect damage. Lawn mowing more than one-third of the grass plant not only weakens the plant, it inhibits the growth of the roots, creating a small, shallow root system. During the dry summer months, these shallow roots can become dried out, eventually killing the plant CONTACT US (ANY TIME) WITH QUESTIONS, INQUIRES OR CONCERNS, WE ARE HERE TO HELP!

The peas should be placed through the manner of freezing shortly after being picked so that they do now not ruin too soon. Once the peas had been selected, they’re located in ice water and allowed to chill. After, they’re sprayed with water to eliminate any residual dust or dirt which can continue to be on them. The subsequent step is blanching. The peas are boiled for a couple of minutes to put off any enzymes that could shorten their shelf lifestyles. They are then cooled and eliminated from the water. The final step is the real freezing to supply the final product. This step may also vary appreciably; a few groups freeze their peas with the aid of air blast freezing, where the vegetables are placed thru a tunnel at excessive speeds and frozen by way of bloodless air. Finally, the peas are packaged and shipped out for retail sale. Pea grading entails sorting peas by way of size, wherein the smallest peas are graded as the very best high-quality for their tenderness. Brines can be used, wherein peas are floated, from which their density can be decided. Woman selecting peas in Mount Kenya Region of Kenya. There are many sorts (cultivars) of lawn peas. Some of the most commonplace sorts are listed here. PMR shows a few diploma of powdery mould resistance; afila sorts, also referred to as semi-leafless, have clusters of tendrils in place of leaves. Unless in any other case referred to those are so known as dwarf varieties which grow to a median top of approximately 1m. Giving the vines support is suggested, but no longer required. Extra dwarf are appropriate for box developing, attaining simplest about 25 cm. Tall types grow to approximately 2m with help required.

Pods and seeds are eaten when they’re very younger. Snap peas or sugar snap peas have rounded pods with thick pod walls. Pods and seeds are eaten before maturity. The name “sugar pea” consists of each sorts,and consequently it can be synonymous with both snow peas or snap peas in exclusive dictionaries. Snow peas and snap peas each belong to Macrocarpon Group, a cultivar organization primarily based at the range Pisum sativum var. Macrocarpum Ser. Named in 1825. It became defined as having very compressed non-leathery fit for human consumption pods within the unique booklet. The clinical name Pisum sativum var. Saccharatum Ser. Is frequently misused for snow peas. The range under this name was defined as having sub-leathery and compressed-terete pods and a French name of petit pois. The description is inconsistent with the appearance of snow peas, and consequently botanists have replaced this name with Pisum sativum var. Macrocarpum. Pod ‘Blue Schokker’ Field Pea Plant in Bloom The field pea is a type of pea on occasion referred to as P. Sativum subsp. Arvense (L.) Asch. It is also referred to as dun (grey-brown) pea, Kapucijner pea, or Austrian wintry weather pea, and is one of the oldest domesticated vegetation, cultivated for at the least 7,000 years. Field peas at the moment are grown in many nations for each human consumption and stockfeed. There are several cultivars and colorings consisting of blue, dun (brown), maple and white. This pea need to not be confused with the cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) which is every so often called the “subject pea” in warmer climates. It is a mountain climbing annual legume with susceptible, viny, and comparatively succulent stems. Vines regularly are four to 5 ft (a hundred and twenty to 150 cm) lengthy, however when grown on my own, subject pea’s vulnerable stems prevent it from growing extra than 1.5 to two toes (forty five to 60 cm) tall. Leaves have two leaflets and a tendril. Flowers are white, pink, or pink. Pods carry seeds which are massive (four,000 seeds/lb), almost round, and white, gray, green, or brown. The root machine is exceptionally shallow and small, however well nodulated. The field pea is a groovy-season legume crop that is grown on over 25 million acres global. It has been an important grain legume crop for millennia, seeds displaying domesticated characteristics dating from at the least 7000 years ago were determined in archaeological sites round what’s now Turkey. Field peas or “dry peas” are advertised as a dry, shelled product for both human or livestock meals, not like the garden pea, which is advertised as a clean or canned vegetable. The major producing nations of field peas are Russia and China, accompanied via Canada, Europe, Australia and the US. Europe, Australia, Canada and the United States enhance over 4.Five million acres and are primary exporters of peas. In 2002, there had been about 300,000 acres of discipline peas grown inside the United States. Pests and sicknesses Main article: List of pea illnesses A type of sicknesses have an effect on peas through some of pathogens, such as insects, viruses, bacteria and fungi.In particular, virus disease of peas has worldwide financial importance. Additionally, insects which include the pea leaf weevil (Sitona lineatus) can damage peas and other pod fruits. The pea leaf weevil is local to Europe, but has unfold to different places inclusive of Alberta, Canada. They are approximately three.5 millimetres (zero.14 in)—five.5 millimetres (zero.22 in) lengthy and are distinguishable with the aid of three light-coloured stripes strolling length-clever down the thorax. The weevil larvae feed on the basis nodules of pea flowers, which are vital to the plant life’ supply of nitrogen, and for this reason decrease leaf and stem growth. Adult weevils feed at the leaves and create a notched, “c-fashioned” appearance on the outside of the leaves. The Pea moth can be a critical pest generating caterpillars the resemble small white maggots in the pea-pods. The caterpillars consume the developing peas making them ugly and fallacious for culinary use. Prior to the use of present day insecticides, pea moth caterpillars had been a completely common sight in pea pods. Peas in technological know-how In the mid-19th century, Austrian monk Gregor Mendel’s observations of pea pods brought about the standards of Mendelian genetics, the foundation of modern-day genetics. He ended up growing and analyzing about 28,000 pea plant life inside the course of his experiments. Mendel selected peas for his experiments due to the fact he could develop them without problems, expand pure-bred traces, protect them from cross-pollination, and manipulate their pollination. Mendel cross-bred tall and dwarf pea plant life, inexperienced and yellow peas, crimson and white vegetation, wrinkled and smooth peas, and a few different trends. He then found the resulting offspring. In every of those instances, one trait is dominant and all of the offspring, or Filial-1 (abbreviated F1) generation, showed the dominant trait. Then he crossed contributors of the F1 technology collectively and observed their offspring, the Filial-2 (abbreviated F2) era. The F2 flowers had the dominant trait in about a 3:1 ratio. Mendel reasoned that each discern had a ‘vote’ in the appearance of the offspring, and the non-dominant, or recessive, trait seemed handiest whilst it was inherited from each parents. He did in addition experiments that showed each trait is separately inherited. Unwittingly, Mendel had solved a chief problem with Charles Darwin’s idea of evolution: how new trends had been preserved and now not mixed lower back into the population, a query Darwin himself did not answer. Mendel’s paintings turned into posted in an obscure Austrian magazine and was no longer rediscovered till about 1900. Recently, extracts from garden pea have proven inhibitory activity on porcine pancreatic lipase in vitro. The pea karyotype consists of seven chromosomes, five of which might be acrocentric and submetacentric. Despite its medical popularity, its especially huge genome length (4.45Gb) made it difficult to series compared to other legumes which includes Medicago truncatula and soybeans. The International Pea Genome Sequencing Consortium become formed to develop the first pea reference genome, and the draft meeting changed into officially introduced in September 2019. It covers 88% of the genome (3.92Gb) and anticipated forty four,791 gene-coding sequences. The pea used for the meeting changed into the inbred French cultivar “Caméor”. Peas in medication Some human beings experience allergies to peas, as well as lentils, with vicilin or convicilin as the same old allergens. Favism, or Fava-bean-ism, is a genetic deficiency of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase that affects Jews, other Middle Eastern Semitic peoples and different descendants of the Mediterranean coastal areas. In this circumstance, the toxic response to ingesting maximum, if not all, beans is hemolytic anemia, and in extreme instances the launched circulating loose hemoglobin reasons acute kidney damage. Peas, like many legumes, comprise symbiotic micro organism referred to as Rhizobia within root nodules in their root systems. These bacteria have the special potential to restore nitrogen from atmospheric, molecular nitrogen (N2) into ammonia (NH3). The chemical reaction is: displaystyle N_2+8H^++8e^-to 2NH_3+H_2N_2+8H^++8e^-to 2NH_three+H_2 Ammonia is then converted to another form, ammonium (NH4+), usable by using (some) plants through the following reaction: displaystyle NH_3+H^+to NH_four^+NH_three+H^+to NH_4^+ The root nodules of peas and different legumes are resources of nitrogen that they could use to make amino acids, materials of proteins. Hence, legumes are appropriate sources of plant protein. When a pea plant dies inside the discipline, for instance following the harvest, all of its closing nitrogen, integrated into amino acids within the ultimate plant elements, is released back into the soil. In the soil, the amino acids are transformed to nitrate (NO3−), that is available to different flowers, thereby serving as fertilizer for future plants. The term pea originates from the Latin word pisum, which is the latinisation of the Greek πίσον (pison), neuter of πίσος (pisos) “pea”. It become adopted into English because the noun pease (plural peasen), as in pease pudding. However, through analogy with different plurals finishing in -s, speakers started out construing pease as a plural and constructing the singular form through dropping the -s, giving the term pea. This manner is known as again-formation. ARTICLES YOU MIGHT LIKE:

Bug Spray To your Homes Bug spray is a superb method of getting gone bees, flies, spiders and ants. They are pesticides which can even be detrimental to human if used without right precautions. Such a spray can be used around your house. Actually, you may use homemade organic sprays without having to risk the utilization of harmful insecticides. Read more and you should learn other ways regarding how to develop your own personal insect spray. You need to use alcohol for any bug spray. The concept of using alcohol for plants has been in existence sources that are then. Actually, fine could cause Apple trees and African Violets. This kind of spray is ideally suited for on mealy bugs, white flies, thrips, scale insects and aphids. You can even use alcohol spray on tropical foliage plans and in many cases on houseplants. When making your alcohol spray, utilize 70% isopropyl alcohol and mix it having a quarter water. You might want to include insecticidal soap spray based on the dilution around the label. Before while using the alcohol spray, you can search your spray on the plant first. Another bug spray you can prepare is a created from garlic. Organic gardeners be aware of the toxic effect of garlic when used as an insecticide. This insect spray is most effective on cabbage loopers, earwigs, leafhoppers, whiteflies and aphids. What's good about it spray could it be doesn't seem to harm adult lady bugs. Additionally it is discovered that garlic sprays aren't effective against grasshopper, sow bugs and red ants. Another substance you may use is nicotine. This sort of spray might be relatively hazardous to lady bettles and bees. This spray works well against soil pests, aphids, immature scales, thrips and leaf miners. When preparing your nicotine spray, you'll have to brew the nicotine tea by soaking tobacco leaves and cigarette butts in water. Simply soak 1 cup of dried, crushed tobacco leaves in a gallon of trouble with ? teaspoon pure soap added. The perfect solution will keep for a lot of weeks if trapped in a closed container. Due to the use, you just pour the spray to the soil in the basis zone. The nicotine spray are able to be absorbed with the plan leaves as well as effects can be visible within a few days. Another substance you may use for any bug spray is pyrethrin. It, when used as insecticide, has a quick knockdown affect on insects as well as other bugs. Should you spray pyrethrin on insects, they will surely be paralyzed. Like kill lady bettles nonetheless they 're not damaging to bees. Pyrethrin can be extremely toxic to aquatic insects and other animals. Keep in mind that in planning pyrethrin spray, its concentration is at its peak in the event the flowers have been in full bloom. After picking the flowers, you need to hang them in a sheltered, dark area to dry. When the flowers seem to be dry, now you can grind those to a find powder.

Today I’ll show you how to create a white and green spring floral arrangement with a vine wreath on a decorative bowl! For the spring decoration, I use snowdrops, white carnations, eucalyptus fruits and a loofah cucumber. You can easily make this DIY idea yourself! Before we start with the DIY, a few brief facts about loofah cucumber. The loofah cucumber belongs to the cucurbit family and is mainly grown in tropical countries. It has many uses besides being a vegetable: e.g. being a loofah sponge for skin care, a dishwashing sponge, a loofah soap, or an decoration element in dried flower arrangements. In this DIY, I want to use the loofah cucumber as a natural floral foam alternative. The flowers are simply put through the holes of the loofah cucumber and hold the flower stems in place. If you’re looking for more sustainable and eco-friendly floral foam alternatives, feel free to have a look at my blog post: Sustainable floristry | My experiences with alternatives to floral foam. I use the following tools for the flower arrangement: flower shears, pruners and a knife. |I use the Japanese flower shears Okatsune 304 |I use the Japanese pruners Okatsune 103 These are the materials I used for the spring decoration: a small vine wreath (mine was about 15 cm in diameter), a white decorative bowl, a small glass vase and the following natural materials: moss, snowdrops, white carnations, willow catkins, eucalyptus fruits and a dried loofah cucumber. |White decorative bowl Step 1: Prepare decorative bowl The first step is to prepare the white decorative bowl for the flower arrangement. To do this, I put the wreath of vines on the bowl. Then, I place the small glass vase in the center of the wreath. The glass vase is filled with water. Step 2: Put moss on vine wreath The next step is to put the moss on the surface of the vine wreath. Step 3: Prepare loofah cucumber Now cut a slice from the loofah cucumber. I use a knife for this. I put the loofah slice on the glass vase. In my case, it happened that the loofah fit exactly into the opening. Step 4: Cut the flowers The next step is to cut the snowdrops and white carnations. I use flower shears for this and cut the stems to different lengths. Step 5: Cut eucalyptus I now use the pruners to cut the branches of the willow catkins and the eucalyptus fruit to different lengths. Step 6: Insert branches in loofah cucumber Now the branches are inserted into the holes of the loofah cucumber. I start with the eucalyptus fruits. After that, I put the willow catkins into the loofah cucumber. Step 7: Insert flowers in loofah cucumber Now, the flowers are put through the holes of the loofah cucumber. I start with the white carnations. After that, I still put the snowdrops. And ready is the spring arrangement with snowdrops and loofah cucumber! The loofah cucumber proved itself to be an excellent alternative to conventional floral foam. I hope you enjoy the sight of spring decoration!

Hi everyone, Stephanie invited me to share some recent developments in Finalnd. I'm David and I'm a mechanical engineer from Rijeka, Croatia, working as a Marie Curie postdoc at Tampere University, Finland, developing kinetic energy harvesters for terrestrial animals, specifically in this project - goats and cattle. I've been also collaborating with Nofence the commercial pioneers of the breakthrough virtual fencing technology. This is my c/p of a post I shared yesterday on my LinkedIn profile. Let me know what you think! Take a look at the first virtual fencing Nofence collar in Finland! Breakthrough future grazing technology developed by Nofence and Oscar Hovde now finally applied, tested and analyzed in cooperation with Tampere University and holistic grazing expert and consultant Philipp Mayer @ the Mantereen Tila highland cattle farm. After my visit to Nofence in November we agreed to test one collar here in Finland so I could measure how the collar moves on the animal and analyze afterwards what are the main directions of acceleration which could be employed for the development of kinetic energy harvesters for future enhancing of Nofence's technology. Also Philipp would use the collar to test the use of the collar in his dynamic holistic pasture management strategies. In the first photo you can see the accelerometer mounted on the bottom of the collar (24h, 800Hz, +/- 16g's), and on the second the equipped collar on Meri. In the first map screenshot you can see the heat map of the collar in use where Meri overstepped virtual bounds set by Phillip. During this first day she received several sound warnings and subsequent electric shocks - while the second map shows the second day results where Meri stayed in bounds! She learned to associate the sound produced by the collar with the approaching virtual boundary! amazing technology! I'm keeping the acceleration results for me and Oscar ;)

Two years of development and cultivation planted the beginnings for the Florida Southern Heritage Rose Garden. The Rose Garden was officially opened to the public Nov. 16 during the Heritage Rose Foundation’s 2013 Conference on campus. According to Professor Malcolm Manners of the Citrus and Horticultural Science department, “The Heritage Rose Foundation, which is international, not for profit, works to preserve old genetics of roses. There have been people attending those meetings, going on 30 years and numerous [people] said this was easily the finest conference we ever had anywhere- they loved it.” The conference, led by Manners and Professor Nancy Morvillo, chair of the biology department, spoke about their work towards getting the garden off its feet and the sciences involved. Morvillo explained the role the environment plays on the genetics of plants, specifically identifying rose varieties in order to analyze plants and determine specific genetic traits. “One of the things we need to consider is not just what’s inherited, but the genes [and] how those genes are actually coding for the traits,” Morvillo said. “We also have to consider the environment, so what we see in these different species, in any organism is not just dependent on genes [or] what you inherit from parent to offspring. We need to consider both of these things as were examining different rose varieties, any plants [and] any organisms.” The importance of determining the rose varieties came in to play when planning for the new garden. “Dr. Manners gave me a couple of different rose examples,” Morvillo said. “There’s a Chinensis and a Chinos, which are often pale when they first emerge, when the flowers first develop, but they’ll go to a deep red in the sun. If you don’t expose them to UV light andgrow them in a green house protected from UV light, then they’re not going to darken.” Morvillo says that she thinks the UV light is a trigger to produce a pigment that is going to turn the flowers red. “It’s an environmental condition that’s going to change the appearance,” Morvillo said. Manners used Morvillo’s research to grow varieties according to their genetic information and plan ahead the varieties needed. “I was informed at least a year and a half ago… by the college that my rose garden that used to be what is now Mr. George’s Green, was going to go away,” Manners said. “We had a fairly substantial garden there, so they called me up and said, ‘We’re creating Mr. George’s Green, your garden is going away. Not to worry, we’ll have another garden to replace it some day.’ So at that point I began planning in my mind, ‘How are we going to make this happen?’ because roses are really hard to transplant once they’re full-sized, they almost always die.” Manners collected and personally grafted some 150 different varieties of roses from starts and has grown them in the green house. “Some of our classes have worked with re-potting and pruning and that sort of thing. I think I personally did all the grafting, but there may have been some student classes that may have done some of it too,” Manners said. Manners suggested New York garden designer Stephen Scanniello to make plans for the garden. Scanniello is best known for his work on the Cranford Rose Garden in the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. “Stephen has a lot of experience with dealing with beautiful spaces around very beautiful architecture,” Manners said. “He is well known internationally for that, so I suggested him to the college and I was delighted that they hired him to do the design. Good as we may be at what we do, there is no way we could have designed a garden that was like that. It really fits in with Frank Lloyd Wright and everything else around it does the job.” Scanniello’s garden design incorporates the 19th century French garden style, which includes vertical structures and tree roses. A new pergola and arch was built in the garden to create flow with the French style and Frank Lloyd Wright designs on campus. “It is unique in the US; there is no other garden done in that 19th century French style, Manners said. “There is no other garden done in a Frank Lloyd Wright style and the fact that we blended them makes it a truly unique space in American rose gardens, really in world rose gardens.”

If your landscaping is dotted with ugly stumps, getting rid of them can sometimes be a challenge, especially if you do not know what the best course of action will be to do the job. Depending on the species of tree, size of the stump, and location of the stump, you will want to consider different options to get the job done quickly and easily. The following tips will help you get rid of the stubborn stumps in your yard using different methods to deal with the problem: Large Trees and Extensive Root Systems That Are Easy to Remove with Stump Grinding Machinery Sometimes, larger trees are too big to dig up and have extensive root systems that would take hours of manual labor to cut, dig and remove. In these cases, it is usually best to use a stump grinding machine to grind the stump and its roots back into the soil. You can rent these machines to do the job or hire a stump grinding service with larger machines if the stump is just too big to handle with a rental machine on your own. Using Salts and Burning Stumps to Get Rid of Them Quickly with As Little Effort as Possible To slowly get the stump to rot away, you can use salts by drilling holes in the stump and adding saltwater. The salt will weaken the fibers of the wood in the stump and help speed up the decaying process. If the stump is not rotting away fast enough, once it has begun to decay and the stump is dry, pile lawn debris over the stump and roots and burn it. After the stump and roots have completely burned, add soil to fill the void and till it in with the ashes for nutrient-rich soil that can be planted with grass, flowers, and other landscaping plants. Digging Up Root Balls and Pulling the Stump Out with an ATV or Compact Tractor to Get the Job Done If you are a person that likes to get their hands dirty and want to get rid of the stump on your own, it is time to get the shovel and pick out to start digging. Dig around the stump and root ball until you get down below the taproot that grows deep in the soil. Once you have the root ball completely exposed, attach a chain or towrope to a small tractor or ATV to pull the stump out of the ground. Manually Digging Up Smaller Stumps and Cutting the Taproot and Stump into Manageable Pieces to Be Removed Sometimes, you may not need much effort to remove the smaller stumps in landscaping. You will only need to dig up the stump and get down to the taproot below the root ball. Once the taproot is exposed, cut it to free the root ball. You may also need to cut other larger roots to get the stump loose. If the stump is larger and you cannot remove it with a lawn tractor or ATV, cut the stump into smaller manageable pieces so it can then be removed one piece at a time. These are some of the different options that you will want to consider to get rid of stubborn stumps in your yard quickly and easily. If you have stumps that are too big for you to take care of on your own, contact a stump grinding service to quickly turn them into nutrient-rich soil for your landscaping.

In recent years, drone technology has made significant strides, offering innovative solutions to various industries, including agriculture. Drone-based pest control in precision agriculture is a game-changing approach that not only enhances efficiency but also promotes environmentally friendly practices. In this article, we will explore the benefits and applications of drone-powered pest control in precision agriculture, and how it is revolutionizing the way farmers tackle pests on their farms. The Growing Need for Sustainable Pest Control Traditional methods of pest control have long relied on the blanket application of pesticides, which can have detrimental effects on both the environment and human health. As concerns over these issues grow, the agricultural industry has been seeking more sustainable and targeted approaches to pest management. Enter drone technology, which has the potential to revolutionize the way we handle pest control in agriculture, offering precision, efficiency, and sustainability. The Advantages of Drone-Based Pest Control Precision Application of Pesticides One of the key benefits of using drones for pest control is the precision with which they can apply pesticides. Equipped with advanced sensors and imaging technologies, drones can accurately identify pest-infested areas and apply the necessary treatments in a targeted manner. This not only reduces the overall amount of pesticide used but also minimizes the impact on non-target organisms and the environment. Reduced Labor and Cost Drone technology can significantly reduce the time and labor involved in pest control. Traditionally, farmers had to manually inspect their crops, identify infestations, and apply pesticides. Drones, on the other hand, can cover large areas in a fraction of the time, allowing farmers to focus on other important tasks. Additionally, the reduced use of pesticides translates into cost savings for farmers. Real-Time Data and Monitoring Drones offer real-time data collection and monitoring capabilities, enabling farmers to make informed decisions about pest management. By analyzing the data captured by drones, farmers can identify pest hotspots and trends, allowing them to implement proactive and targeted control measures. This data-driven approach not only improves pest management efficiency but also helps minimize crop loss and maximize yields. Implementing Drone-Powered Pest Control on Your Farm If you are interested in adopting drone-based pest control for your precision agriculture operations, consider the following steps: - Invest in the right equipment: Choose a drone with the appropriate specifications and features for your specific needs, such as high-resolution cameras, multispectral sensors, and GPS capabilities. - Train your staff: Ensure that your team is well-trained in drone operation, data analysis, and pest management best practices. - Develop a pest management plan: Based on the data collected by your drone, create a comprehensive pest management plan that outlines the strategies, techniques, and treatments to be used on your farm. - Monitor and adapt: Regularly review and analyze the data collected by your drone to identify trends, assess the effectiveness of your pest management plan, and make any necessary adjustments. Drone-based pest control in precision agriculture presents a sustainable and efficient solution for managing pests on the farm. By leveraging the power of drone technology, farmers can implement targeted and data-driven pest management practices that not only benefit their operations but also contribute to a healthier planet. If you’re eager to learn more about how drone technology can revolutionize your agricultural business, we encourage you to visit this comprehensive guide on building and growing your drone business. This resource offers valuable insights on various aspects of drone technology and its applications in the agricultural industry, helping you stay ahead in the rapidly evolving world of precision agriculture.

It is said that lakhs of families in India flourish due to the country’s coffee trade. Lakhs! All because of their dedication to the industry and striving to create the best coffees. When you stop to think that India ranks as one of the top places in the world for coffee, this doesn’t seem all that surprising. From traditional filter kaapi to Monsoon Malabar and Mysore Nuggets, the country has a lot to offer in terms of coffee culture. You may have heard of Mysore Nuggets and never really stopped to think about what the hue and cry is all about. In this post, we are exploring what Mysore Nuggets are like and why they deserve all the praise they get. What are Mysore Nuggets? Despite what the name may suggest, Mysore Nuggets are not exclusive to Mysore, a city in Karnataka. Mysore Nuggets derives its name from the popularity of Mysore coffees and the superior quality of the green beans, which makes it one of India’s best specialty coffees. It is an Indian wet-processed Arabica coffee grown in select family-owned estates in South India at a high altitude of 1200m. Much like other coffees, Mysore Nuggets are also shade-grown. What makes them more special and adds to their prestige is the fact that a lot of farms in the Chikamagalur area incorporate sustainable farming methods, increasing the quality of coffee production. These coffee beans tend to be relatively large in size, thereby being graded to be the best. Bababudangiris, Chikmagalur, Biligiris, Shevaroys, and Coorg are 5 regions where Mysore Nuggets plantations are found. Known to have a greenish-blue tinge, the beans are usually medium-roasted but you’ll also find brands that offer dark roasted varieties of Mysore Nuggets coffee. Considering their high grade, the imperfections on the beans are limited so you won’t find the usual chipped beans or blacks in a bag of Mysore Nuggets. Why are Mysore Nuggets Held in High Esteem? Coffee connoisseurs have long since understood what Mysore Nuggets bring to the game. Handpicked based on the size, lack of defects, and quality, the beans have a clean and polished appearance. Its large bean size indicates that the coffee cherries have had a better chance to grow well on the plant. Moreover, its uniform bean size allows for optimum coffee roasting results. Having grown at a higher altitude, the beans are not subject to heat which could impede the coffee plants’ growth. The flavour profile of coffees made with Mysore Nuggets is complex. They have a smooth mouthfeel with a medium body. The mild acidity makes it perfect for people who don’t prefer strong sour tastes in their coffee. Our Mysuru coffee, made of Mysore Nuggets, has a rich flavour that boasts of nutty, cocoa notes and a citrus finish. Mysore Nuggets coffees generally have a refreshing aroma that makes them appealing to a lot of people. “Akin to gold nuggets”, “single-malt equivalent”, and “best of the best” - these are all phrases used to indicate just how precious Mysore Nuggets are considered to be. And with good reason! We hope this post helped you understand and appreciate Mysore Nuggets a bit more. They hold their own and leave a lasting impression. If you’ve never before tried coffees made of these golden coffee beans, give our Mysuru Malgudi Days coffee a try!

The Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, a national leader in philanthropy to enhance the quality of people’s lives, has provided a $100,000 grant to Scenic Hudson—underscoring the power of our work and the importance of the valley’s farmland. The grant will enable Scenic Hudson to pursue two inventive programs. For the first time in the valley, Scenic Hudson will define specific priorities for protecting farmland on a parcel-by-parcel scale. Also by virtue of this much-needed support, Scenic Hudson will research and promote specific means for building the capacity of municipal and county governments to invest in keeping land in agriculture. This part of the initiative will seek to foster greater farmland preservation collaborations between municipalities and land trusts, state and federal government and private donors. Scenic Hudson, which has invested $19.5 million in working with farm families to conserve and enhance their operations, understands that farms are vital for providing healthy, local food and also as potent small businesses in the economy. Scenic Hudson sees room to expand the economic power of valley farms because in New York City alone the unmet demand for regionally produced foods approaches $600 million annually. See this press release for additional details.

Following is an article by guest columnist Margy Lutz who lives with her husband, Wayne, on a float house on Powell Lake. You can follow Margy on her blogsite http://powellriverbooks.blogspot.com This sure has been a mild winter, and gardens all around town (and up and down our coast) are already showing signs of spring. My daffodils were in bloom two full weeks earlier than normal, how about yours? Our weather with rain interspersed with more than a few warm sunny days has all of us gardeners ready to get started. Last week I tilled my vegetable garden and amended the soil with composted manure. I do this in March so the soil can rest before planting seeds in April. It works better that way, at least for me. I also got my flowerpots ready for annuals once they start arriving in the stores. Do you have a garden? Is it large or small? Do you have pots on a balcony or a few things growing in a windowsill? Gardening can take many forms. I don’t have any land where I live up the lake in a float cabin. My good friend John helped me out by building a cedar log float with four one by two metre raised beds on top. In it I have a kitchen garden with lettuce, spinach, kale, chard, beets, carrots, onions, radishes, tomatoes, and herbs. I’ve also rotated in asparagus, strawberries, and potatoes at other times. On the cabin deck I grow other vegetables and flowers in pots. It’s not enough to be self-sustaining, but the home grown produce is a nice addition to our meals in summer and preserved for winter use. I keep the garden tied to the breakwater most of the time. That keeps my plants away from shore and hungry critters like mice, squirrels, and woodrats. I use a simple pulley and rope to bring the garden next to our cabin’s deck when I want to plant, weed, water, or pick something for supper. Then a gentle kick and pull of the rope sends it back out to its protected spot. A solar panel runs a boat bilge pump so I can water with a hose. Porous heavy-duty mesh cloth on the bottoms of the beds allows for drainage. I plant my garden just like you would on land. I just have to be careful that I don’t put anything on the soil or plants that would be harmful in the water, which we drink after boiling. Garden trimmings and kitchen scraps go up the hill to my compost bin. There it decomposes to become part of my future soil supply. My floating garden is a bit unique, and it shows that you can garden just about anywhere as long as you have good soil, water, sunshine, and loving hands. On April 2 (Good Friday) from 6 – 7 AM and April 6 (Easter Monday) from 5 – 6 PM my garden will be part of a CBC radio broadcast about five different houses from across Canada. The show will include a rebroadcast of an interview originally conducted by Willow Yamauchi (who grew up in Lund) for a North by Northwest show in 2013. You can read more about that program here: http://powellriverbooks.blogspot.com/2013/08/float-garden-on-cbc-radio-north-by.html Are you a gardener? Would you like to share your garden or gardening talents with your friends and neighbours in and around Powell River? The Powell River Garden Club has put out a call for people willing to open their gardens to others on a day yet to be determined this coming June. If you don’t have a garden to share, would you be willing to donate some time to keep the Powell River Garden Tour going? You can find out more information at their blog or contact them by email at [email protected]. or visit: http://powellrivergardenclubblog.blogspot.com/2015/02/garden-tour-in-jeopardy.html Thanks for visiting my float garden on Powell Lake. If you would like to read more about it, I invite you to come to my blog at http://PowellRiverBooks.blogspot.com and select the “Gardening” category. — Margy

Since the end of April, Anchor kindergarten classes have been feeding storage bins filled with worms, preparing them to be released into the compost maintained by Creekside for use in the garden beds. Called vermi-composting, this process uses earthworms to increase the speed of the composting process and create a high-quality compost. Kindergarten students fed their worms once a week, bringing in leaves, eggshells, coffee grounds, apple cores and other appropriate items to keep their worms happy and healthy. One student was confident that his class’s worms will be great composters, exclaiming, “They’re amazing! This is going to be the best compost you’re ever going to have!” When the kindergartners arrived, they were greeted by the 6th grade ambassadors who read them the story, “Diary of a Worm,” by Doreen Cronin, a fun story about a worm’s life. For those who may not know, worms don’t have to take baths, they can eat their homework and their head looks a lot like their rear end. After the story, which was a big hit, groups were taken outside for a tour of the garden beds planted and maintained by the students in the Farm to School program. The eight student ambassadors, all of whom have participated in the Kitchen-Garden FLEX class and/or the after-school garden club, showed the younger students the many different vegetables and herbs currently growing in the gardens. At the herb garden bed, kindergartners were able to sample chives; some liked the herb, others not so much, but all agreed they tasted like onions. The Creekside garden is in full production at this time of year, with sprouts of pumpkins, radishes, greens, beans, thyme, raspberries and peppers, just to name a few. A 6th grade ambassador shared with Anchor students, “One great thing about Creekside is that sometimes when you come in from recess, you can stop by the garden and grab a fresh raspberry on your way in.” Anchor students and their teachers enjoyed the field trip to Creekside, especially seeing the gardens that will soon benefit from the worms they’ve raised. Anchor teacher Mary Leach commented, “I love to see it come full circle and the kids love it too.” The Dexter Farm to School program partners with the Dexter school district to educate students about where food comes from and the importance of what they put into their bodies. Program coordinators Francie Wesorick and Lisa Babe work with teachers Kirsten Korff and Kelly Parachek to run the Kitchen-Garden FLEX class, the after-school garden club held in fall and spring and to maintain the Creekside garden. The Farm to School program also offers district-wide cafeteria food sampling and other special events to encourage students to eat more fruits and vegetables. Produce raised in the Creekside garden is currently being sold at the Dexter Wellness Center on Wednesday mornings from 9 to 11 am (ending August 7th), and all sale proceeds go back into the Kitchen-Garden program. The Dexter Farm to School program is funded by a grant from the Dexter Wellness Coalition and the 5 Heathy Towns Foundation, and has been in partnership with the district for the past 6 years. The grant has been renewed for the 2019-2020 school year, and Wesorick and Babe look forward to continuing their work with students at Creekside and other Dexter buildings.

My sister, Hannah interned at the parks department this summer. One of the perks was getting free tickets to a few local events. She was kind enough to bring me along to Dig In - A Taste of Indiana this past weekend. Dig IN demonstrates that investment in Indiana food and agriculture, through education, experiences and conversation, benefits our community and economy. The organization provides educational resources for agricultural, culinary arts and local food sectors in Indiana. It increases awareness of Indiana’s diversity in agriculture and culinary arts, and Dig IN facilitate connections within the Indiana food community to enhance economic development opportunities. We had such a good time walking around trying all the delicious samples from tons of local restaurants. There were so many booths that we barely made it through half of them and were still full! We still managed to make room for a few sweet stops at the end! What fun to spend the afternoon with my lovely sister! ;-)

Mushroom cultivation has gained significant popularity in recent years, attracting enthusiasts from all walks of life. Whether you’re new to the hobby or a seasoned grower looking to expand your cultivation operation, proper supplies are essential for successful results. A wide array of different mushroom cultivating supplies are available, and the exact items you need will vary depending on what species you’re growing, your cultivation environment, and more. However, there are a few key items every mushroom cultivator should have on hand: 1) Mushroom Spawning Mushroom spawn is one of the most crucial items for cultivating mushrooms. It’s essential to buy spawn from a reputable seller who can guarantee the sterility of their products. Purchasing high-quality spawn ensures you start your growth with the highest possible yield. Mushroom spawn is most commonly grown on grain, but some growers prefer sawdust to provide a higher-nutrient medium for mushroom colonization. 2) Jars and Grain Bags Jars are a critical mushroom growing supply, as they can be used to inoculate mushroom spawn post-agar stage. Some growers choose to use glass jars, while others opt for sterilized plastic bags. Regardless of the type of jar you select, it’s important to invest in a variety of lid modifications that create optimal conditions for mycelial expansion and reduce the likelihood of contamination. Specialized mycology tools are essential for tasks that require precision, such as transferring mycelium from Petri dishes to grain spawn. A scalpel is an indispensable tool for this, allowing you to cut agar with surgical accuracy. Additionally, a knife or scissors is required to cut fruiting substrate and harvest mushrooms. A notebook and pen are also a must, to document critical information such as inoculation dates and growth milestones. Mushroom cultivation supplies

Vertical gardens are a great way to add greenery and interest to any outdoor space, especially if you have limited space to work with. One effective way to create a vertical garden is by designing it around a fence. Not only does this help to maximize the use of space, but it also creates a stunning visual display for your yard or patio. Today, we'll go over some tips and tricks on how to create a vertical garden fence that's not only functional but also beautiful. Choosing the Right Vertical Garden Fence Creating a successful vertical garden starts with choosing the right fence for your plants to grow on. Here are some factors to consider: - Material: Choose a fence material that is durable and appealing to your taste, such as wood or metal. - Height: Consider the height of the fence to ensure there is enough space for your plants to grow vertically. - Strength: Make sure your fence is sturdy enough to support the weight of your vertical garden and its containers. By taking these factors into consideration, you can select a fence that will provide the proper support for your plants to thrive. Designing your Vertical Garden Fence with Functionality in Mind When designing your vertical garden fence, it's important to consider how it will function as well as how it looks. Here are some tips to help you create a functional and beautiful vertical garden fence: Include built-in shelves or containers in the design to maximize the use of space. By incorporating built-in shelves or containers, you can make the most of the vertical space and create a more cohesive design. Use shelves to hold smaller containers or create larger planter boxes in custom sizes. Make sure the shelves or containers are securely attached to the fence to avoid accidents or damage to your plants. Consider how the fence will be accessed for watering and maintenance, and design accordingly. Think about how you will access the plants for watering and maintenance. If the fence is located in a hard-to-reach area, consider adding a walkway or installing a pulley system to make watering and maintenance easier. Incorporate hooks or hangers to hold tools such as pruners or watering cans for easy access. Plan the placement of the plants based on their sunlight requirements and the amount of shade provided by the fence. Consider the microclimate created by the fence and select plants that are appropriate for the light and temperature conditions of that area. Place plants that require full sun in areas with the most direct sunlight, while those that prefer partial shade should be placed in shadier areas. Plan the placement of the containers or shelves accordingly to create a balanced and aesthetically pleasing design. Selecting the Right Plants for your Vertical Garden Fence Choosing the right plants for your vertical garden fence can make all the difference in the success of your gardening venture. Here are some tips to help you select the best plants: Choose plants that are suited for vertical growth Vining plants are an excellent choice for vertical garden fences, as they have long, flexible stems that can wrap around vertical supports. Other plants, such as succulents, ferns, and herbs like mint and oregano, can also do well in a vertical garden fence. Consider the microclimate created by the fence Plants have different sunlight and temperature requirements, so it's essential to choose species that are appropriate for the conditions created by your vertical garden fence. For example, if the fence is in a shady area, you should choose shade-tolerant plants, such as hostas, ferns, and impatiens. Choose plants that are low maintenance and disease-resistant When selecting plants for your vertical garden fence, go for low-maintenance species that can thrive in your local climate without too much attention. Disease-resistant plants, such as marigolds, zinnias, and snapdragons, can also help keep your garden healthy and looking vibrant. Optimizing your Soil Mix for Vertical Garden Fences Having the right soil mix is crucial to the success of your vertical garden fence. Here are some tips for optimizing your soil mix: Use a lightweight soil mix A lightweight soil mix is important for a vertical garden fence as it helps to reduce the weight load on the fence. Use a mix that drains well, retains moisture and holds nutrients, such as a mix of peat moss, vermiculite, and perlite. Incorporate slow-release fertilizer Slow-release fertilizer provides nutrients to your plants over time, reducing the need for frequent fertilization. Incorporate it into your soil mix for best results. Consider a soilless mix Coco coir is an excellent soilless mix option for a vertical garden fence. It helps to reduce the weight load on the fence, improves drainage and makes it easier to maintain your garden. By optimizing your soil mix, you'll give your plants the best chance to thrive in your vertical garden fence. Irrigation Techniques for Vertical Garden Fences Proper irrigation is essential for the health and growth of plants in a vertical garden fence. Here are some techniques to consider: Drip Irrigation Systems Drip irrigation systems are a great option for vertical garden fences because they deliver water directly to the plant roots, avoiding water waste and ensuring even hydration. These systems can be set on a timer and easily automated for convenience. Self-watering planters are another option for vertical garden fences. These planters use a reservoir to provide water to the plants as needed, reducing the need for frequent watering. They can also help prevent overwatering or underwatering. In addition to these techniques, it's important to water your vertical garden fence regularly, especially during hot summer months. Use a watering can or hose with a wand attachment to water individual pots and areas, and avoid overwatering or underwatering. By implementing proper irrigation techniques, you can help ensure the health and beauty of your vertical garden fence. Maintaining the Health and Beauty of Your Vertical Garden Fence Regular maintenance is key to keeping your vertical garden fence looking lush and beautiful. Here are some tips to help you keep your plants healthy: Prune Your Plants Regularly Regular pruning helps to remove dead or damaged foliage and control the growth of your plants. Use pruning shears to remove any branches or leaves that are obstructing the growth of other plants. Check for Pests and Diseases Regularly inspect your plants for signs of pests and diseases, such as wilting, yellowing, or stunted growth. If you notice any problems, treat them immediately to prevent further damage to your vertical garden fence. Fertilize Your Plants To ensure your plants get the nutrients they need, fertilize them regularly with a balanced fertilizer. Follow the package instructions and avoid over-fertilizing, which can damage your plants. By following these simple tips, you can keep your vertical garden fence looking healthy and vibrant, and enjoy the beauty of your plants all year round. Creative Ways to Incorporate Fences in Vertical Garden Designs Looking to add some creativity to your vertical garden design? Here are a few unique ideas for incorporating fences: 1. Mix Up the Materials Experiment with various fence materials to achieve an eclectic look. Bamboo poles or recycled pallets are great options that bring a natural, rustic vibe to a garden space. 2. Get Creative with Unusual Items Think outside the box and incorporate unusual items, like vintage garden tools or old picture frames, for a unique touch to your vertical garden fence. It's a great way to add a whimsical and playful touch to your outdoor space. 3. Add Edible Plants A vertical garden fence doesn't have to be purely ornamental. Incorporating herbs or edible plants can make it functional as well. You'll have fresh herbs right at your fingertips and a beautiful garden all in one. These are just a few ideas to help you create a unique and personalized vertical garden fence. The possibilities are endless, so let your imagination run wild! Creating a vertical garden fence can add beauty and functionality to any outdoor space. By choosing the right fence material, designing with functionality in mind, selecting suitable plants, optimizing your soil mix, using efficient irrigation techniques, and maintaining your vertical garden regularly, you can enjoy a lush and thriving vertical garden fence year-round. Get creative with fence materials and incorporate edible plants for a unique and functional touch. With a little planning and effort, your vertical garden fence can become the highlight of your outdoor space and bring you joy for years to come.

Glufosinate is a broad‐spectrum herbicide, and its use is therefore limited to total eradication of vegetation or to control of weeds shortly after crop emergence. One of the better‐studied plants is Catharanthus roseus, the Madagascan periwinkle, which accumulates the two high‐value anti‐cancer drugs, vincristine and vinblastine. Similarly, seven species of grain legume account for a large portion of our calorie intake. First, the traits can often be modified by the insertion of a single gene and many of the relevant genes had already been isolated by the mid‐1980s. For example, the expression of coat protein gene from virus has been widely successful. This gene order, or synteny, is particularly well conserved in monocotyledonous plants, which include all of the cereal crops (Moore et al., 1995). aspirin or taxol. The European Union continued to move, albeit slowly, towards relaxing its rules on the production and importation of GM crops. It can also be used as a tool in crop breeding programmes and even for the domestication of new plant species as future crops. The list of genetically modified plant technologies in trials, including rice, wheat, potatoes, and peanuts, is impressive and differs from those being worked on in other countries. The transgenic potatoes were resistant to the soil‐borne fungus Verticillium dahliae, which causes some $70–140 million in damage to potato crops each year. Molecular markers such as microsatellites, restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) and random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) have now been developed for many crops, including trees. Plant‐derived oils are mainly used as commodities for the manufacture of foodstuffs. This could allow fruits such as tomatoes to remain for longer on the vine in order to develop more flavour, but without the risk that they would lose the firmness necessary for them to be harvested, transported and stored without damage. A slight advancement of the flowering time could also dramatically improve yields of rice in some tropical and subtropical regions where the current growing season is just over six months. Some other seed crops like rice offer a better balance of amino acids, but fall-out on their overall protein levels. A better‐informed and educated public is more likely to understand the often‐complex issues that surround plant biotechnology. However, the vast majority of the plant oils that are consumed in the western diet are the so‐called invisible fats that lurk in over half of all the food products in a typical supermarket. Copyright 10. This led to a failure of fruit formation and, since the major products of the crop are fruit oils, the trees were effectively useless. However, it is not clear whether such relatively simple modifications will lead to a sustained effect on crop yields in the much more complex real‐life cropping systems where osmotic stress is often linked with a combination of other factors, such as periodic aridity, mineral/salt build up and/or erosion. The development and release of commercial transgenic crops is the most widely publicised application of plant biotechnology, but is arguably less significant than the deployment of molecular genetic methods and tools for the recognition, selection and breeding of improved non‐transgenic crops. However, there was a public relations setback to the agbiotech industry when the Texas biotech company, Prodigene, was found to have contaminated a soybean crop with transgenic maize expressing a trial vaccine designed for use in pigs (http://www.guardian.co.uk/gmdebate/Story/0,2763,865030,00.html). This made the development of transgenic crops with enhanced input traits an attractive short‐term proposition for the seed companies which developed these first‐generation genetically manipulated (GM) crops. Unlike the current generation of crops with transgenic input traits, these two examples of transgenic tomatoes with modified output traits were segregated from non‐transgenic foodstuffs and were distinctively labelled as GM products. Many losses of crops occur because of spoilage during storage or transportation. More gluten proteins can also be added to give enhanced elasticity to dough. An alternative to selectable markers is the use of ‘scoreable’ markers, which encode enzymes not normally present in the plant and whose activity can easily be measured. A key priority should be the development of a method in plants for the facile site‐specific insertion of genes, as already exists for animals. University Server, Biotechnology Times, Issue 1, 1995, Accessed Mar 2002. However, there are also many other examples of potential transgenic crops being developed with modified output traits. (a) Global area of transgenic crop cultivation, 1996–2001, (b) cultivation areas of transgenic crops in 2001, by country, (c) cultivation areas of transgenic crops in 2001, by crop species, (d) cultivation areas of transgenic crops in 2001, by trait. The book traces the roots of plant biotechnology from the basic sciences to current applications in the biological and agricultural sciences, industry, and medicine. The applications are: 1. The techniques of plant, organ, tissue and cell culture have evolved since the beginning of this century and combined with recent advances in genetics and using conventional plant breeding, the plant biotechnology is having a significant impact on agriculture, horticulture and forestry. Disclaimer 9. Genetic engineering of plants provides an opportunity to alter their properties or performance in order to improve upon their utility. The recent identification of low phytic acid mutants of maize (Raboy, 2000) has shown that zinc bioavailability could be increased by as much as 78% (Adams et al., 2000). Use the link below to share a full-text version of this article with your friends and colleagues. Such traits are typically related to agronomic inputs, such as herbicides, pesticides and fungicides, as well as nitrate and mineral fertilizers. On this occasion, rapid and decisive action by the US regulatory authorities effectively prevented the entry of any material into the human food chain. Key agronomic traits identified from model plant genomic studies can often be mapped to their syntenic equivalents in a crop of interest. In the case of many of the more potent pharmaceuticals, the active product is normally first purified from the plant before being used for therapeutic purposes, as with the anti‐cancer drug taxol® obtained from the Pacific yew, or the anti‐malarial agent quinine extracted from the yellow cinchona. Transgenic crops are still effectively excluded from large areas of the world, including some of the major industrialised nations. Biotechnology: Application # 1. However, Monsanto withdrew the technology (temporarily) from use in crops late in 1999 following adverse public reaction (Niiler, 1999). Given the very high value of some secondary products, it is not surprising that there is a great deal of interest in engineering their biosynthetic pathways to make more of the desired product in the original plant, or in transferring some of the genes into higher‐yielding crop plants.

Our industrialized food system is really good at producing cheap and convenient food that rewards large corporations, but only gives 16% back to small farmers. Because of this, small farmers in America are facing extinction. These are the farmers that care about their soil, the welfare of their animals, and their communities. We're on a mission to give the power back to the small farmers. To give them a fair share of the proceeds for their hard work, to save their way of life, and protect our future from the damaging effects of industrialized agriculture. And it all starts with you. Every time you purchase from a small farmer you are voting for their healthier, more nutritious products, and contributing to a better tomorrow. We were beyond excited to get our eggs today from Kakadoodle Farm!! The eggs were gorgeous, the colors were beautiful, they tasted delicious, the kids were amazed and ecstatic... yes over eggs, I know! We cannot wait to get some more.

If you are looking for ways to improve your carbon footprint and help the environment, you should be composting. Starting compost is an excellent way to use all the different food waste and lawn clippings you have lying around. Composting is an excellent way to create fertilizer for your garden, and it can even be used for your grass and indoor plants. The only problem is many people don’t know how to get started. Start Small – Tin Bin With Holes is a Good Starter Compost Bin As with anything, you don’t want to start with too much on your plate. It is best to begin small. The recommended way to begin is with a tin bin that has holes in it. Most people use this when starting compost. You can even talk to one of your neighbors and get a starter compost if they are known to be composting already. Make sure that when you start your pile, you only use plant-based food and grass clippings. You can also add in browns, which are mulch, leaves, and twigs. People tend not to add in meat or other products, as it can be unsanitary; however, these food items can be put in the compost bin when composting in your household. Benefits of Composting – Minimize Waste, Create Great Soil to Grow Your Garden Composting doesn’t only keep garbage out of the landfill, but it also reduces your household waste, while creating a powerful substance that you can add to your garden. Compost is considered a natural fertilizer, as it contains millions of microorganisms that help keep the soil fresh and infuse the plants with nutrients that they need. Rather than purchase chemical fertilizers from the store, create your own compost pile and start to grow your garden like never before.

Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Pennsylvania is committed to keeping our youth members engaged physically, mentally and emotionally while our school districts remain closed and BGCWPA enters the reopening phase to offer a new blended model of in-person and virtual Summer programming. BGCWPA is excited to announce our “Growing Hope” initiative to inspire members to explore healthy eating and cooking, physical fitness and the science behind growing vegetables and eating right! We are also excited to partner with local farms to procure the veggies, distribute seeds from Farm to Table and chefs which will have LIVE weekly cooking demos using the veggies we deliver. All of the materials and supplies needed will be delivered right to the doorsteps of 200 youth! This initiative will include items such as plants, seeds, pots and soil along with a pedometer, water bottle and healthy living materials to promote nutrition and exercise during and after COVID-19, as well as learning about STEM, and healthy eating. These deliveries will be accompanied by STEM videos provided by our own staff and from our partners at Farm to Table. The Growing Hope initiative will be a 3 phase project, including three deliveries of fresh vegetables from local farms, and weekly virtual cooking lessons from Chef’s like Jen Saffron from Sprezzatura in Millvale, PA. In the final phase, youth will learn more about why staying physically fit and eating healthy is so important, and will be asked to track their steps for the chance to win prizes and compete against their peers in friendly competition! Deliveries will begin mid June and extend into July. Interested in being a part of Growing Hope free of charge? Fill out this interest form. Thank you to our dedicated lead sponsor, Dollar Bank, and supporting sponsor, Lowe’s Home Improvement, for supporting BGCWPA’s relief efforts and helping youth to “Grow Hope” during this difficult time.

For many, the pub is a home away from home, a building that is also kind of a friend: someone warm and sociable, someone to confide in, someone to hold your hair back, someone with a charming but dodgy sense of style. With an assemblage of mismatched art hangings, antlers and in my case; coy photos of the ‘Ken doll of gardening’ himself: Alan Titchmarsh. It’s difficult not to be enticed by Alan’s enveloping charm as you see him posing in a tree. Alan Titchmarsh started his gardening career at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew, before transitioning into journalism and since, has made domestic gardening accessible and approachable for all. “Gardening is not a preserve of anyone. Lords, dukes and duchesses can talk about it on a level playing field with ordinary folk.”– Alan Titchmarsh Estimated by the Waste Resources Action Programme (WRAP) and research compiled by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, conclude that a staggering one-third of all food produced in the world is wasted, with 4.1 million tonnes of food waste sent to landfill. While local authorities do collect household food and garden waste for large-scale composting operations, home composting is a hotter commodity, reducing civic costs for waste collection, decreasing transportation impacts and saving tasty amounts of money for those green fingered, guardians of the grub. Despite the great “green” push that’s swept through gardening, mountains of garden rubbish are still ending up in landfill sites. The silly thing is, the same people who take car-loads of garden waste to the tip or pay the council to collect them from their garden gate, are then buying bags of compost for the garden.– Alan Titchmarsh Composting is a natural process that decomposes food and garden waste into a rich fertiliser and soil conditioner, improving the structure of the soil and enriching the earth with diverse nutrients and microorganisms that will improve plant growth. Chemical fertilisers on the other hand can be pricey, they are non-renewable and long-term use acidifies the pH of the soil, causing detriment to the ecosystem. Scoring the perfect carbon : nitrogen ratio is the secret to a thriving, hygienic compost – or so the experts at the local gardening society say. A healthy compost should have a higher amount of carbon to nitrogen, using one-third green and two-thirds brown materials. Carbon-rich matter (the brown stuff) like: branches, dried leaves, peels, wood, sawdust, vacuum dust, corks, shredded brown paper bags, coffee filters and grounds, egg shells and straw gives the compost its light and fluffy body. To balance the ratio out, Nitrogen or protein-rich matter (the green stuff) like: manure, food scraps, pet hair, lawn clippings and green leaves, provides the raw materials used to make enzymes. protein-rich matter (manures, food scraps, green lawn clippings, kitchen waste, and green leaves) provides raw materials for producing enzymes. By investing in a robust bin and getting to grips with what you can and can’t compost, you will be well on your way to recycling your own organic waste. In the age of uneconomical food production, consumption and waste management, composting offers an accessible solution for recouping benefit from this wasteful culture. Anyone can compost and it requires minimal effort once you’re in the know. Next time I visit the ladies room in my local pub, I will look deeply into Alan’s eyes as I wash my hands, knowing that instead of throwing away my food waste, I composted it.

Tweet Print This Page Email This Post The North Coast is criss-crossed with country roads bearing the names of stalwart farm families who proudly worked the same land over generations. Some of the scions of those families stayed with the land, others couldn’t get away fast enough. But within the last decade a new generation of determined young farmers is laying down roots in the agricultural Eden of Northern California. Many grew up among suburban comforts in other parts of the country and bear degrees from prestigious universities — some graduate level — in fields that hardly prepared them for planting, propagation, harvesting and distribution. Without inherited land, many are leasing small plots tucked amid a sea of grapevines, where they are eking out a living growing organic vegetables and fruits and raising chickens and sometimes other small barnyard animals, so dedicated are they. Not having been raised on farm chores, 4-H and the Future Farmers of America, they are at a disadvantage. But what they lack in experience, they make up with passion and commitment as they fill in their knowledge gaps with apprenticeships and information gleaned from a growing number of online farming resources. Chief among them is California Farmlink, a small nonprofit that helps first-generation farmers access land and capital and learn the business aspects of farming. For the past two years, Austin Blair has worked 12-hour days, six days a week, learning to farm from the ground up, starting with an acre plot in Schellville he shared with another neophyte 20-something farmer.Page: 1 2 3 Next > [View as single page] Copyright © 2012 PressDemocrat.com — All rights reserved.

Larimer County Community Corrections farmers' market opens August 4th Department: Board of County Commissioners Release Date: Jul 31, 2017 Joe Weilnau, Senior Correctional Services Specialist, Community Corrections, [ 970] 498-7575, [email protected] Community Corrections clients give back to the community As the summer starts to wind down, fresh garden vegetables are ripening up and ready for harvest. The Larimer County Community Corrections Farmers’ Market is back this year and opens every Friday beginning August 4th from 8:00 a.m. to 12 noon, just south of Prospect and east of Timberline Rd at 2255 Midpoint Drive in Ft. Collins. The Farmers’ Market is carried out by clients in the intensive residential drug and alcohol treatment program. Community Corrections clients grow, harvest, and sell garden-fresh vegetables, herbs, and berries at their stand. The farmer’s market program will be open every week until the produce runs out. The produce is sold on a donation basis, and Community Corrections Senior Staff Member Joe Weilnau, who is overseeing the program, said that at the end of the market season the majority of the proceeds will be donated to local charities that often serve their clients. A portion of the revenues will also be used to appreciate all the hard work the clients have accomplished growing and harvesting the produce. Community Corrections Director Tim Hand stated, “We plan to use the appreciation revenue one afternoon for a barbecue where our staff will cook hamburgers and hot dogs for the clients. I believe they deserve some return on their sweat equity investment.” Hand expressed appreciation for Weilnau and his efforts coordinating the Farmers’ Market. Hand described the garden initiative as a “pay it forward” program yielding positive results from Community Corrections clientele. Beginning in 2008, the program has expanded from a single plot to several beds and varieties of produce. The Community Corrections Farmers’ Market will offer tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, yellow summer squash, zucchini, cucumbers, Brussels sprouts, garlic, onions, shallots, chives, green onions, variety of peppers, mint, spearmint, strawberries, and a hybrid-type of raspberries. The market takes cash and checks, but not credit cards. Community Corrections clients not only worked the produce stand, but designed, built, and planted the garden to grow the produce. Donations for construction came from community businesses as well as County surplus and recycled County building materials. Bath Garden Center donated plants and supplies for the program. Clients who work the garden are also involved in a 21-day and 90-day drug and alcohol treatment programs designed to confront the addictions and behaviors that led to their involvement in the criminal justice system. The Farmers’ Market is a therapeutic outlet and opportunity to learn the value of giving back to the community.

Do old vines yield better grapes and wine? Matt Kramer, writing in WINE SPECTATOR addressed this issue in a June 15, 2010 column. Read that column HERE. Mr. Kramer answers that opening question with “Yes,” and makes several interesting points: 1. The age of “old vines” (how old is old?) varies by region. What’s “old” in a recently-established wine country like New Zealand is different than in a long-established wine country like Spain. 2. Fifty years and older feels about right to Mr. Kramer when thinking about “old vines.” I like thirty-five years and older … after the vine has past its yielding peak, and its annual production begins to decline in clusters per vine and tons per acre. 3. Old root systems are really the key, rather than just big, gnarly above-ground vine architecture. While those gnarly vines are dramatic, most of the self-regulating attributes that are a key to old vine quality come from the old root systems. 4. Old vines usually require a lot of nurturing, and their yields may be too low to be economical. Which is why they are a bit rare. Younger vines and bigger yields are usually more financially viable. 5. Old vines are usually steady and dependable. They’re going to yield what they’re going to yield, both in quantity and quality. There’s a bit less vintage variation in old vines. 6. A deep, old vine root system is able to tolerate both wet seasons and dry seasons better than a shallower, younger vine root system. 7. Wine aging can reveal the true character of old vine wines. The fleeting fruitiness of youth dissipates with time, to reveal more complexity in an old vine wine. 8. All things being equal, and barring the possibility that the grape grower is pushing old vines to increase their naturally lower yields, old vine wines will be “better” than young vines of the same variety and terroir. 9. My own observation: “Old Vine” means something a bit more rare, and therefore worthy of special attention. It isn’t necessarily “better” … just as Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa isn’t necessarily “better” than Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma. But old vine sourcing does tease with the possibility that you’ll have a wine out of the ordinary. And the sense of history, why those grapes were planted there and then, and by whom, adds a layer to my enjoyment of what’s in the glass.Share on Facebook

No Products in the Cart Hemp is one of the most under-explored, unknown and most beneficial plants to ever exist on earth. It is the answer to a sustainable future, only if it's values are tapped efficiently and harnessed properly. Following are a few benefits/facts of hemp that make it a gem of a plant! Here's to a sustainable future! No doubt it is called the gift of nature. Your hemp clothing will last you for years. Hemp is one of the strongest and most durable of all natural textile fibers. Products made from hemp will outlast their competition for many years. Not only is hemp strong, but it also holds its shape, stretching less than any other natural fiber including cotton. Hemp goes back to nature after completing its natural cycle. Hemp is a weed, so it grows prolifically with little water and no pesticides. It takes up relatively little space, produces more pulp per acre than trees, and is biodegradable. Hemp crops even give back by returning nutrients to the soil and sequestering carbon dioxide. Virtually every part of the plant can be used. Nature’s goodness clubbed in one! Hemp grows like a weed, thriving on very less water as compared to other crops. The stem and leaves of the hemp plant are jam-packed with nutrients. As the plant matures and the seed grows, leaf matter falls to the ground and decomposes replenishing the soil with goodness ready for the next crop. Happy Hemping everyone!

The Living Stage, Castlemaine, 2013 In 2013, The Living Stage set out to test a novel concept of sustainability for the Performing Arts using the platform of the 2013 Castlemaine State Festival. Part theatre and part garden; it featured vertical garden walls, suspended pots and portable garden beds each culturing edible plants. The structure was created by the rural community of Castlemaine under the guidance of stage designer Tanja Beer and permaculturalist’s Hamish MacCallum and Sas Allardice. The Living Stage acted as both a venue and inspiration for a number of local performance groups whose brief was to create experimental works that drew on the concept of regeneration, and interacted with the unique design that surrounded them. At the end of the Festival, The Living Stage was consumed by the community; its physical structures became their garden beds, its plants became their food, and its waste became their compost.

Advantages of Garden Boxes There aren’t many things that I love more than gardening. When February comes I start getting all excited making big plans for my garden. I have planted a garden in the ground for years, but decided to make the switch. These are the advantages that swayed me over to the garden box world: - WAY less weeding. When we built ours, we put newspaper down on the bottom, and then put our soil blend on top. I have a few weeds pop up, but literally probably 1/8 of the weeds with gardening the traditional method. - Saves your back. We built ours pretty high, and there is a lot less bending involved. You can even sit on the edges and reach…

Appalachian Roots is a coalition of eastern Kentuckians promoting native and small scale agriculture as a basis for improved health, wellness and economic development through education and outreach. Appalachian Roots is committed to bettering the health of our mountain citizens through promoting agriculture in its most effective form -- the backyard garden and/or community gardens. Simple enough, you say? No, in fact, changing the mindset of a populace that has become accustomed to mass-produced processed food and fast food dining, is a very difficult endeavor. Sustainable agriculture produces food without depleting the earth's resources or polluting the environment. Appalachian Roots relies on community involvement to further the food movement that is growing in the Big Sandy region. Community is all about people, caring for one another, sharing our resources, respecting our heritage, and working together for the common good. Agriculture is not limited to digging in the dirt. As one local entrepreneur says, "Maple syrup producers are farmers, too." Appalachian Roots encourages and promotes such groups as the Kentucky Maple Syrup Association and the Beekeepers Association. To paraphrase the Future Farmers of America's creed, "Appalachian Roots believes in the future of farming with a faith not born of words but of deeds."

The project, which involves supplying gogo (granny) headed households with vegetable seedlings, compost and gardening tools to start a home vegetable garden, has already benefitted over 240 grannies and their families living in the Valley of 1000 Hills communities of Molweni, KwaNyusuwa and Inchanga. 60 year-old, Bongeni Nzama (pictured above) who lives in KwaNyuswa with her three grandchildren is amongst its latest beneficiaries and says the project is a true Godsend as it’s giving women such as herself the ability to grow their own food and feed their families once again. “Our situation last year was very bad” explains Nzama, “for several weeks, me and the children had nothing to eat but pumpkin from my garden and when that ran out, HACT helped us with food hampers. We would have starved if HACT wasn’t there to help us…” HACT’s Marketing & Fundraising Manager, Claire Hodgkinson describes the project as a “win-win” as not only is it restoring hope and dignity to local families who are facing crippling food shortages, but it’s providing job security for HACT’s Plant Nursery staff who are responsible for growing and supplying the vegetable seedlings for the project. “COVID-19 has forced us all to work smarter and that’s exactly what projects like our Home Gardens project are all about. HACT has over 30 years’ experience in responding to global health pandemics and this experience has certainly come to the fore over the past year as our team continues to respond with creativity and resiliency to the problems faced by those living in the community as well as those employed through our various economic empowerment projects here at the Centre”, explains Hodgkinson.

The botanist’s profession encompasses the procurement of resources from all forms of plant life. This includes harvesting vegetables and grains, tending fruit-bearing trees, cultivating fibrous plants, logging timber, and more. Botanists also endeavor to educate others about the need to maintain a symbiotic relationship with Eorzea’s plants, rather than carelessly stripping them of their useful parts. Owing to their intimacy with nature, botanists are known to revere Nophica, the goddess of abundance. A Botanist will be scouring Eorzea for the finest plants and items of the earth to give or sell to Alchemists and other Disciples of the Hand.

The suckler cow husbandry consists of the Limousin and Pinzgauer breeds. Rearing the young The calves stay with the mother cows until they stop giving milk - this is about eight months. During this time, the calves already start eating hay and grass. After the lactation period, the young animals are placed in a separate group where they grow up until they are ready for slaughter or breeding. Feeding and husbandry All animals are fed grass and hay in summer and hay and lucerne-clover grass silage in winter. Of course, all animals have free run and are kept on straw.

Hey there! Looking to unlock the full potential of your cannabis harvest? Well, I've got you covered with these 3 essential steps to extract THC-9. In this article, we'll dive into the art of harvesting and preparing cannabis, choosing the right extraction method, and refining and purifying that precious Delta 9 THC. Get ready to embark on a technical journey where we break it down for you, step by step. So, let's roll up our sleeves and get extracting! - Harvest ripe buds and initiate drying process promptly - Evaluate and choose the right extraction method (solventless or CO2 extraction) - Use solventless extraction for a simple and pure extraction process - Consider CO2 extraction for high-quality and potent extracts, especially for THC-9 extraction Harvesting and Preparing Cannabis To successfully extract THC-9, the first step is to harvest and prepare the cannabis plant. After carefully selecting the ripest buds, it is crucial to initiate the drying process promptly. This process involves removing the excess moisture from the plant material to ensure optimal THC-9 extraction. The harvested buds should be hung upside down in a controlled environment with proper ventilation. Maintaining a temperature of around 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit and a humidity level of 45-55% is essential during the drying process. Once the buds are thoroughly dried, it is crucial to store them correctly to maintain their potency. Utilizing airtight containers in a cool, dark place will help preserve the THC-9 content. Now that the cannabis is harvested, dried, and stored, the next step is to choose the right extraction method for maximizing THC-9 yield. Choosing the Right Extraction Method I prefer assessing various extraction methods to determine the most suitable one for maximizing THC-9 yield. When it comes to extracting THC-9 from cannabis, two popular methods are solventless extraction and CO2 extraction. Solventless extraction involves using mechanical methods, such as heat and pressure, to separate the THC-9 from the plant material. This method is preferred by many because it does not require the use of solvents, which can leave behind residues and affect the purity of the final product. On the other hand, CO2 extraction utilizes carbon dioxide as a solvent to extract THC-9. This method involves a complex process of using high pressure and low temperatures to extract the desired compounds. CO2 extraction is known for its ability to produce high-quality, potent extracts. When choosing the right extraction method, it is important to consider factors such as efficiency, purity, and safety. By carefully evaluating each method, you can determine which one best suits your needs and preferences. |Purity of Extract Refining and Purifying the Delta 9 THC After extracting THC-9, the next crucial step is refining and purifying the Delta 9 THC. To achieve optimal purity, various delta 9 THC extraction techniques can be employed. One common method is chromatography, which separates different compounds based on their affinity for a stationary phase. This technique allows for the isolation and purification of Delta 9 THC from other cannabinoids and impurities. Another technique is fractional distillation, where the different boiling points of compounds are exploited to separate and collect the Delta 9 THC. Additionally, winterization can be employed to remove unwanted fats and waxes, further enhancing the purity of the extract. These refining and purification methods are essential in obtaining high-quality Delta 9 THC, ensuring its potency and effectiveness. Frequently Asked Questions How Long Does It Take for THC-9 to Degrade and Lose Its Potency After Harvesting the Cannabis Plant? After harvesting the cannabis plant, THC-9 can degrade and lose its potency over time. The degradation timeline varies depending on several factors, such as storage conditions, exposure to light, and temperature. These factors can accelerate the degradation process, causing THC-9 to lose its potency more quickly. It is important to properly store and handle harvested cannabis to minimize degradation and maintain the desired potency levels. Are There Any Specific Storage Conditions or Containers That Should Be Used to Preserve the Quality of the Harvested Cannabis? When it comes to preserving the quality of harvested cannabis, storage conditions and containers play a crucial role. Proper storage conditions, such as maintaining a cool and dark environment, can help prevent degradation and maintain potency. Using airtight containers, like glass jars, can also help preserve the freshness and flavor of the cannabis. It's important to keep in mind that exposure to light, heat, and oxygen can all negatively impact the quality of the harvested cannabis. Can the Extraction Process Be Done at Home, or Is It Recommended to Consult a Professional or Licensed Facility? Yes, the extraction process can be done at home. However, it is highly recommended to consult a professional or licensed facility. They have the expertise and equipment necessary to ensure a safe and efficient extraction. Attempting home extraction without proper knowledge and equipment can be dangerous and may result in poor quality or contaminated product. Consulting a professional will help you achieve the best possible outcome and ensure the highest quality THC-9 extraction. Are There Any Potential Health Risks or Dangers Associated With the Extraction of THC-9 From Cannabis? Potential health risks and dangers associated with extracting THC-9 from cannabis? Oh boy, where do I begin? While the extraction process itself can be safe if done correctly, there are still some risks involved. Mishandling or using improper equipment can result in fires, explosions, or exposure to harmful chemicals. It's crucial to follow safe extraction methods, such as working in a well-ventilated area and wearing protective gear. Taking precautions is key to ensuring a successful and safe THC-9 extraction process. What Are Some Common Mistakes or Challenges That People Encounter When Attempting to Extract THC-9, and How Can They Be Avoided? When attempting to extract THC-9 from cannabis, there are common mistakes and challenges that people may encounter. These can be avoided by ensuring proper understanding of the extraction process, using appropriate equipment, and following safety protocols. It is important to be aware of the potential health risks and dangers associated with handling cannabis and THC-9. By taking necessary precautions and conducting thorough research, one can minimize the risks and successfully extract THC-9 without facing unnecessary challenges. In conclusion, by carefully following the three essential steps outlined, one can successfully extract the euphoria-inducing THC-9 compound from cannabis. This process involves harvesting and preparing the plant, selecting the appropriate extraction method, and refining and purifying the desired Delta 9 THC. By mastering these techniques, individuals can enjoy the benefits of THC-9 in a safe and efficient manner. Embrace the art of cannabis extraction to unlock a world of elevated experiences.

Mulch Installation Texas First, you bought a bottle of liquid plant fertilizer to keep your grass, bushes, and flower vibrant. Then you purchased weed killer, and then bug repellent. Before you know it, you have more yard products than places to put them all, and you could still benefit from other items. Not only are you running out of storage space, but you’re pumping a ton of chemicals into your home’s groundwater. That could eventually harm your yards or even your family. While you could purchase natural insect predators and more natural-based products, most are ineffective and pricey. Or, you could call Pro Quality Lawn Care for affordable mulch installation. Wood mulch is one of the most effective all-natural solutions to more of your yard care concerns. Call us for your best choice in local mulch installation services. Weed Control Mulching When weeds are still young, their stalks are barely strong enough to push through the dirt. It isn’t until they start stealing precious resources from your yard that they can start beefing up. Weed control sprays use harsh chemicals that poison plants on the spot. However, as they die off, they might still drop healthy seeds, sprouting new ones on their way out. When you have mulching installed as a weed control method, it prevents them from springing up in the first place. The dense wood chips will remain too heavy for weeds to lift, causing them to die off before they mature. If you are still searching for an all-natural alternative to your weed problem, our mulch installation team has the perfect solution for you. Call us now for the best in organic control options. Pest Control Mulch It might not seem it, but most mulching stays a useful bug control product. Although mulching can get made from numerous types of trees and plants, nearly all make life tough on pests. Many types of bark used in mulch contain oils which naturally act as bug repellants. And as the wood breaks down over time, it improves the soil’s chemistry, making it difficult for many pests to stick around. Mulching can get used to prevent current insects from hatching more eggs, as well as keeping away fungal growths that can make plants ill. One installation will provide months of sustained protection with little to no maintenance needed. If you are tired of subjecting your yard to toxic poison sprays, then organic wood mulch is the best way to keep your plants safe. Call us now for your trusted choice in mulch installations. Yard Improvement Mulch Many mulches use natural-based dyes to add more color to your plants as they offer their other many benefits. We install brown, black, red, and natural wood mulches, providing you with the hues you need to liven your lawns. Dyed mulching is ideal around the bases of trees, along the edges of flowerbeds, and lining sidewalks. When your yard stays the same dull shade of green, Pro Quality Lawn Care is here to help.

Laurent Montalieu Laurent attended the Institute of Oenology of Bordeaux, where he immersed himself in studies of vineyard management and wine making. He worked in California’s Napa Valley before moving to Oregon. He has gained the respect of industry leaders and professionals with his passion for the highest quality standards in the vineyard coupled with a philosophy of minimal intervention in the production of hand-crafted wines. He produces Tumwater wines at his state of the art wine making facility in nearby Dundee, Oregon. It all started with making a good home for the grapes. We began building that 'home' with an empty slate. The vineyard has a story. This place held promise for much more than the rugged fields and scattered stands of fir trees foretold. After careful planning and site preparation the professionals were brought in to evaluate what grapes would grow best here on Pete's Mountain. The rows were plotted to make the best use of how the sun moved across the sky. The soil was turned and stakes set in place. Acre after acre the young vines were planted and strung up to take what nature had for them in this new home. One never quite knows what will happen. We waited. This summer we were delighted to receive our very first harvest of grapes, enough to produce a limited batch. Like proud parents we lift our glass to toast the realization of the dream. Looking forward, we envision being able to harvest a bountiful yield in another year or two. Until then we have been blessed to partner with local wineries for a splendid selection of classic vines to enjoy right here in this special place we call Tumwater Reserve. Small batch tasting November 2016 With a smile and a pause to take in the bouquet, we sampled our very first small batch wine from the 2016 harvest. There was just enough wine to share between those gathered. "It tasted like victory" was the response from Gordon Root, Principal developer of the Tumwater property. Well said Gordon, it has been one long row to hoe. Let us raise a glass to the future of this vineyard and the grateful heart we share in seeing it come to fruition. Cheers!

Using the grass all the way to the root, Seth Baas’ new restaurant Pitchfork Pretty offers a seamless dining experience with attention to detail in the kitchen and at the table. The restaurant opened June 14 and in just over a month has garnered a loyal customer base. The menu consists of dishes that use vegetables grown in the restaurant's garden, harvested the same day they are used in the restaurant for dinner. General manager Alexander Dubey said they didn’t spend a lot of resources on advertising before opening in order to not overhype the restaurant from the outset. “It’s all been grassroots and word of mouth,” Dubey said. “We are very conscious about flying very low under the radar. We’ve not set a bar. We want people to set the bar for us.” Okra, eggplant and peppers are among the daily harvests of the garden. Often the species of vegetable is handpicked by chef Max Snyder to be visually appealing, such as in the yucca dumplings, which are accented with star-shaped okra. Snyder said the garden gives him the opportunity to use every part of a plant, such as flowers and leaves. For example, the yellow flower of a cucumber plant is used to garnish beer-pickled cucumbers. Snyder uses unusual parts of the plants, which adds a whole new dimension to the dishes. “We try and incorporate as much variety and diversity from the farm but also from each individual plant too,” Snyder said. “We want to have a garden so we can see plants moving through all the different stages (and use them).” They originally intended to grow herbs inside the restaurant, but when a plot of land became available near the restaurant, the team decided to take the project on. Though the garden demands a seasonal menu, Snyder said this gives him more creativity to create dishes that look and taste delicious. “The ingredients totally inform creativity,” Snyder said. “The limitations of your region are definitely very helpful in the creative process because it gives you a box to work inside of.” The customers notice the creativity and detail that go into every one of the dishes Snyder prepares. Paul Morgan, a two-time customer, said he has never even thought about many of their flavor combinations before. “The butter they use is locally sourced, but they add miso to it (which) completely changes the flavor of the butter,” Morgan said. “It’s not something you would encounter (and) certainly not a chain restaurant.” With an open floor plan, the restaurant never feels claustrophobic despite the plentiful seating. The spaetzle with broccolini and apples is light, filling and tasty. The waitstaff carefully executes table service by clearing the table regularly and asking about dietary restrictions. Morgan said the attention to detail makes Pitchfork Pretty stand out among other restaurants. “The time it takes to apply tiny flowers to butter is not going to be valued at other restaurants,” Morgan said. “If they pay that much attention to the butter they give you for the bread, you can pretty well guarantee they’re watching everything else as well.”

So how often should you turn your compost on your new handy tumbler? There are a couple specific instances: - When the compost is too dry, you should add food scraps and turn it. - When the compost is too wet, you should add some dry carbon material like leaves, wood chips, or paper and turn it. - If the compost isn't heating up, turn it. But how will you know all these specific moisture and temperature levels? I am working on a compost optimization system with the Circuit Playground Express as we speak. That will take into account all these readings and let you know when it's time to turn the compost. Stay tuned!

Malanga and Taro are both tubers that are popular in tropical regions. Both of these starchy vegetable plants are known for their roots and cormlets. They are often used interchangeably in different recipes. It is widely believed that Taro and Malanga are the same plants, but they have different names. They are members of the Araceae family. They share some unique similarities and differences, which we will discuss further in this article. Appearance: Color, Shape, and Texture The elephant-eared leaves of both Taro and malanga look strikingly similar. It will be very confusing for an untrained eye to differentiate between the two plants just by looking at the leaves. Malanga stems have a whitish color as opposed to Taro, which has reddish-purple stems. Both these plants are predominantly known for their edible corms, which can be used in various recipes. The color of taro corms can vary depending on the variety of taro plants. The most common colors are white, yellow, pink, and purple. The color of the corms is not an indicator of the plant’s maturity or nutritional value. The color of malanga corm can vary depending on the variety of plants. Generally, the corms are a light brown or tan color. However, some varieties can have green, purple, or even black corms. The taro corm’s texture is smoother compared to the Malanga corm’s hairy texture. Taro corm has a bulb-shaped structure that is different from the Malanga corm, which looks like a thinner, more extended version of a potato. The flesh of taro corm is the edible part of the plant, typically white or light purple. Pinkish dots can also be seen inside the taro corm. The flesh color of malanga corms can vary depending on the variety of plants. Some malanga corms have white flesh, while others have yellow, orange, or even pink flesh. The color of the flesh is not always an indicator of the quality of the corm, but it can be an indication of sweetness. The taste of malanga corm is unique and has been described as earthy, nutty, and slightly sweet. It is often compared to the taste of potato or yam. The taste of taro corm is often described as nutty or earthy. Some also say it has a slightly sweet taste. The exact flavor will depend on the variety of taro corm you are eating and how it is prepared. Additionally, the corms and leaves of both veggies should be cooked before consumption. Eating it raw can cause some issues due to the presence of calcium oxalate compound. Rhubarb leaves also have the same compound that makes their leaves inedible. Boiling them can help eliminate the chemical. RELATED : How To Grow Malanga

I don’t know anything about gardening or children. So putting together a schools programme about growing vegetables is proving to be very interesting. Given that we are about to ask potentially thousands of children to grow some vegetable plants for us, I decided that I needed to have a go at growing some vegetables first, to see if I could manage to do it. I also wanted to gauge what age the activity would be suitable for, so I borrowed some children for the afternoon. Theo (aged 7) and Heidi (aged 3) are my niece and nephew and were my willing helpers. I know that it’s not really the right time of year to grow vegetables but we just wanted to prove that we could get the seeds to germinate so thought this would be ok. We had a lot of fun. As you can see in the photos, we tried to grow runner beans, broad beans and winter pansies. Theo and Heidi took charge and in no time at all we had all of the bean seeds planted. The winter pansies were a bit of a struggle because the seeds were so small; I’ll have to think carefully about the size of the seeds when deciding on the seeds to go in our grow packs, and keep the smaller seeds for the older children. Based on this small experiment, it seems like older nursery children could certainly take part without too many problems. Can any parents of small children comment on this? Do you agree? The winter pansies haven’t germinated so I’ll have to re-think those but 2 weeks later, we have some very small bean plants – success!
