chr. Anton Smedshaug, Managing Director Agri Analysis In 1995, wheat production was in the former Soviet Union, now called the Commonwealth of Independent States (CUS), 55 million tons of wheat and they had to import about 5 million tons more wheat. SUS included on it times Belarus, Ukraine, Russia and Kazakhstan, in addition to eight other countries that joined this cooperation after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, resulting in a total of 15 new states. At that time, there was a lack of funding, thus plant protection products, mineral fertilizers, seeds, etc., and many lands lay fallow due to unclear ownership conditions after the collapse of one communities and the state. farms. Felleskjøpet revenue growth in the first half Fast forward to 2005 The SUS is still considered a unit in which Ukraine, Russia and Belarus, i.e. now includes only the European part of the Soviet Union, and production has not increased so significant compared to 10 years earlier. Production has now increased to around 67 million tonnes of wheat. Wheat is used here as an indication of the efficiency and development of SUS agriculture. By comparison, North America (US and Canada) harvested 90 million tonnes this year. It is easier to compare these figures with North America, which has a fixed geographical size, and with the EU, which changes scope regularly. In 2009, 18 years later After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, FAO statistics begin to distinguish Ukraine from Russia, leaving room for a different development for the countries of the former Soviet Union. At the same time, the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) is developing a better representation of world production. This change has hooked as well as increased pressure on FAO to provide better data and information related to the previous food supply crisis of 2008-2012/3. In 2009, we see that Ukraine and Russia are close to reaching the same level of wheat production as Canada and the United States, which is 80 to 85 million tonnes. Let’s move on Compared to the years before the 2022 invasion, the situation has changed dramatically, the three-year average (2019-2021) of the combined wheat production of Ukraine and Russia is then significantly higher than that of Ukraine. North America. Today, Russia alone equals North America with production of around 80 million tonnes, while Ukraine has reached 30 million. Russia now has a a population much smaller than that of North America, ie 145 million compared to nearly 370 million. This means that Russia can export a large part of its harvest. Certainly not as much as Canada – one of three countries with a very high export share of production, along with Australia and Kazakhstan. The latter’s exports are mainly destined for neighboring countries in Central Asia, while some transit through Russia and the Black Sea. For this year 2023, we will see how Ukrainian production has been hit hard by the war, as wheat production has almost halved from the 2019-2021 average. Russia, on the other hand, continues to expand and, paradoxically, in 2022 recorded the best wheat harvest ever, with more than 100 million tonnes. in 2024, the harvest is estimated at 83 million tonnes. World food prices are rising again It means Russia has gone from being a wheat importer 30 years ago to being the world’s largest exporter in 2024, with exports estimated at 45 million tonnes, or as much as North America combined. In a world where many countries have large import needs, wheat has become a strategic commodity and an excellent opportunity to exercise political and military power, as well as to obtain hard currency. Because the Black Sea supplies the Mediterranean, it offers great opportunities for Russia, and North Africa alone imports 30 million tons of wheat per year. Middle East and Türkiye are also major importers of wheat. Beyond the Black Sea, it is above all France which has a surplus of wheat and which is competitive in the Mediterranean itself. Russia is now stimulated cheap and high-priced production, while competing Ukraine struggles with damaged and mined fields, destroyed production facilities and attacked export facilities. Russia’s dominance in wheat exports and its development as an agricultural superpower will probably continue, while Ukraine will return to a situation similar to that of the 1990s, where a lot has to be rebuilt – now for the second once in a generation, in order to realize the country’s production potential. Paradoxically, it is The annexation of Crimea and the ensuing invasion are expected to boost Russian agriculture by creating value chains and boosting production. Wheat production in various areas and countries in millions of tons 1995-2023 and exports in 2024: |North America||90||83||85||79||79||45 (25+20)| In October, Smedshaug will publish the book “Can Agriculture Feed the World? at University Press. “Passionate pop cultureaholic. Proud bacon trailblazer. Avid analyst. Certified reader.”

Dandelions? Don't poison them, eat them. They're delicious in many ways and nutritious, too. Here's how to harvest and enjoy them. One of the first wild foods in the spring, dandelions are thought to be one of the bitter herbs the Israelites missed when they left Egypt. The slight bitter edge one tastes in fresh dandelion leaves increases digestive efficiency and the nutritional properties of dandelions in all forms helps detoxify the body. There is no more pleasant spring tonic! If you want to try dandelions, be sure that the plants have not been exposed to herbicides, pesticides or chemical fertilizer. Your own back yard is probably the safest area, as long as you do not use chemical treatments. For the best plants (yes, your neighbors will think you've gone nuts), extra water during dry spells, and a little natural fertilizer like manure tea or a side dressing of compost will do it. Besides the leaves, buds, blossoms and roots are used as food and medicine. Each is harvested at different times and used in different ways. The most common use of dandelions is for "greens," a spinach-like food. If taken care of, dandelion leaves can grow quite long and lush. Pick them before the plant blooms for the mildest flavor. However, the leaves can be used any time and some people pick them throughout the growing season. If you boil them for a few minutes, then drain the water and finish cooking them in fresh water, that will help remove the bitterness, but it also loses a lot of nutrients down the drain. Fresh, raw dandelion leaves are good in egg drop soup or other soups, in omelets and sandwiches. When young and tender, they're excellent in salads. Dandelion tea (dandelion coffee is a different drink) is made from dandelion leaves. Make as you would any tea by boiling water and steeping a handful of fresh leaves or a teaspoon of dried crushed leaves for five to ten minutes. To harvest, simply cut the leaves close to the crown and wash well to remove grit. Let the leaves soak in a salted bath for a few minutes to encourage any insect to vacate. Dandelion buds, while still small, are a good boiled vegetable, served with butter and a little salt. To harvest, cut or pull small buds from the plant. Remove the stem and any green leaf-like spikes around the bottom of the bud. Wash well. Dandelion wine is a traditional favorite, but there are other ways to use dandelion flowers. Frittered dandelion blossoms are a treat for anyone. Use a light pancake type of batter, dip the blossoms face down into it and fry in hot oil until very lightly browned. Serve as a side dish or sprinkle with powdered sugar and use as a dessert. Other uses: Make dandelion jelly, or pull or cut the blossoms from the stamen and use them in egg drop soup, artisan bread or cookie dough. To harvest, choose the largest, brightest blossoms you can find. Be sure to check for bees or other small pollinating insects! Drop the blossoms into cold water, then add a little salt and let them set for a few minutes. Rinse well and remove stem and so on, as for buds. Dandelion roots can be used as a boiled vegetable or a drink. Use whole roots to boil, and serve with butter or lemon sauce. Dandelion coffee is delicious and good for you. There is no caffeine, but there are a lot of minerals and vitamins! You can make it just like real coffee, in a percolator or drip coffee pot, or like tea, steeping it in boiling water. To harvest dandelion root, it's best to wait until the fall, after the last blooming period. When things begin to die down after the first frost is the best time to dig the roots. Use a sharp spade and dig straight down around the plant, lifting it out of the ground. Shake or brush off as much dirt as you can, cut the root off at the crown and put it in a bucket of water. When you've harvested eight or ten large roots (or more smaller ones), swish them in the water to get as much dirt off as possible, then pour the dirt back in the hole and take the roots to the kitchen. Once there, scrub them thoroughly. You don't have to peel them or remove hair roots, but you might want to cut away gnarly areas or where they've grown crookedly and there are hiding places for dirt. They have a natural brownish tint on the outside, so don't scrub them to death trying to get them white. When they're clean, chop into quarter inch pieces and spread one layer thick on a cookie sheet. Roast them at around 325 degrees until they're richly browned. Remove, cool and store in an airtight container, then grind in a coffee grinder or food processor when you're ready to use them. There's much to be said about dandelions, but after all this, perhaps a little warning is in order. The French have a name for them that translates loosely to bedwetting. If that's not a clue, how about this: Dandelions are a diuretic in any form, so don't overdo it, no matter how good it tastes!

Things are still dark, damp and chilly here in the Seattle area, but we love February because it’s the first month where we actually start seeds. For this month’s Garden Checklist, onions and shallots are on deck, as are sweet peas, beans, and kale. Depending on your last frost date, you may also even want to start some of your summer crops, although we tend to play it a little more conservative and wait until March. February is also a great month to ensure you are set up for a great season by ensuring all of your equipment, beds & yard tools are in tip-top shape. So get going! - By the beginning of the month, you should have your garden plan finalized and – hopefully – your seed orders have arrived - At this point, we will have finalized the number of plants we’ll be growing, and which beds they will go in over the course of the season - If you have cover crops, plan to turn over those crops and add compost or fertilizer at least 2-3 weeks before your first transplant date - If you want to add a bit of heat, you can optionally choose to but black plastic mulch over your beds - Now is also a good time to ensure your garden tools are sharp, rust-free and ready for the season - If weather permits, get an early start on weeding and add mulch to paths - Prune your fruit trees and divide & move any cane fruits like raspberries or currants - Apply dormant oil to fruit trees - Get your seed starting station setup – lighting, heat mats if needed, etc. - If slugs are an issue in your area, you can put down a pet-safe bait before you start transplanting Sow & Plant Sow indoors your early seeds starts: - Fava Beans - Fruit Trees - Cane Fruits Continue to harvest any over-wintered veggies: - Root Vegetables - Treat lawns, sidewalks, driveways and roofs for moss - Make sure your mower is ready for action – sharp blades, fresh fuel, and general maintenance

New recruits bring innovative practices to Muresk Last year we introduced the Muresk Institute team and now we’ve grown two stronger. Farm Supervisor Steve Wainewright and Senior Project Officer Jim McMahon have joined the team, managing the Muresk Institute farm and developing innovative programs, respectively. Steve was previously the Manager of the UWA Ridgefield Farm in Pingelly and has a Degree in Agriculture and a Masters in Animal Nutrition. At Muresk he’s responsible for managing the farm plan, the budget and the day to day operations of the cropping, cattle and sheep enterprises. He also helps out with the on the ground running of short courses taking place on the farm. Muresk Institute General Manager Prue Jenkins said Steve’s enthusiasm for innovative practices and technology in agriculture is an asset to the Muresk team. “Steve understands the value of hands on practical education and training and the benefits of upskilling the next generation in agriculture operations,” she said. Jim has not one but two degrees including a Bachelor of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery, and a Bachelor of Agribusiness. He has just returned from a two month stint in the UK and USA where he was contracted to undertake complex artificial breeding programs. When he’s not working as a vet, Jim is at Muresk helping to develop, manage and implement a range of short courses for industry stakeholders. “Jim has a broad knowledge with regard to livestock and the agricultural industry as a whole and has a distinct appreciation for the wellbeing of animals,” Prue said. “We are very lucky to have Steve and Jim on-board who are both exceptionally knowledgeable about their respective areas and passionate about Muresk Institute’s purpose to help advance the agricultural industry in WA.” WATCH NOW: Video introducing Steve Wainewright.

Pelwatte Dairy, one of the leading local dairy brands in Sri Lanka that produces a range of dairy goods and saves valuable foreign exchange for the country, is a forerunner in quality and productivity development of local dairy farmers. The dairy leader plans to achieve this through a Project/Program/Initiative that is focused on training, development and empowerment of the farming community it works with. The new Project aims to develop a well-equipped dairy training centre with the collaboration of international dairy training providers and to improve the herd with modern breeding techniques. A cornerstone of the Project is to develop dairy farmers’ infrastructure to comply with Good Dairy Farming Practices introduced by world Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Chamila Rajapaksha, the Farm Manager at Pelwatte Dairy Industries elaborates: “The Pelwatte Dairy Training Program aims to develop a well-equipped dairy training centre in collaboration with international dairy training service providers. The existing farms will be enhanced as a cattle breeding farm to supply high quality breeding materials to the Sri Lankan dairy farmers. It is little doubt that quality training and awareness provision on such aspects as high yield dairy breeding and livestock management are essential inputs to update farmers’ knowledge in par with the rest of the industry and global trends. Regular knowledge updates are essential not only on breeding techniques but even on dairy quality maintenance and preservation, feeding and wellbeing of the cattle. During the COVID pandemic, farmgate supply chains were disrupted. Despite this, demand for Pelwatte dairy products increased during lockdowns and our farmers’ workload, revenues and need for new dairy farming knowledge too increased along with it. Meanwhile new dairy substitutes such as soy milk and almond milk are entering the market everywhere in the world and it is important for dairy producers such as Pelwatte to highlight the superior quality and nutrition of dairy products, in comparison to such substitutes. Most importantly, the world is increasingly embracing sustainability, and it is time our committed farmers learn to adopt the best practices in this regard. The Pelwatte Dairy Training Project aims to fill such knowledge gaps as well.” Chamila Rajapaksha adds: “Dairy products have a direct relevance to consumers’ digestive health and their general wellbeing. Therefore, we believe that the safety of consumers who use Pelwatte products to be of utmost importance. Farm assurance on the quality of dairy products is one of the best things a dairy producer offer its customers, which the customers also look forward to.” The Good Dairy Farming Practices of world Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) addresses such farming aspects as milking hygiene, animal health, nutrition (feed and water), sensitive animal husbandry practices, environment concerns, and ensuring the sustainability with socio-economic management. Among these, Pelwatte is moving forward first with milking, addressing environment concerns and training. Adds Chamila Rajapaksha, “Major area of our new business strategy is to convert our farm as a well-equipped Dairy Education and Training Centre. We plan to established training complex with a lecture hall, laboratories, dining areas and accommodation facilities. We look forward to register it as a Vocational Training Centre after which we will offer a globally reputed certificate to the course participants. The training provided will result in technology transfer to local farmer community. The knowledge transferred shall be about modern dairy farming technologies. The recipients will be the Sri Lankan dairy farmers and young entrepreneurs who are willing to be engaged in dairy based industries.” Milking is the most important practice in a dairy farm and a good milking facility ensures best milk from the dairy cattle. Pelwatte has a line milking parlor facility with 4 units and is sufficient to maintain a satisfied cow herd as milking is completed within three hours. With Pelwatte’s planned herd improvement, the farm requires minimum 6 x 2 Herringbone Milking Parlor. Addressing environment concerns is not new to Pelwatte, and it already set up a compost making project as a waste management technique. “Our facility produces minimum 60 tons of compost per month increasing farm profitability at the same time” says Chamila Rajapaksha Pelwatte is now looking to automate the project and is planning to acquire a tractor with a trailer, a pile tuner and an excavator. About Pelwatte Dairy: Having set up in 2006, Pelwatte Dairy, which specializes in milk processing, animal feed and dairy products is one of the Sri Lankan brands that successfully saves the outflow of foreign exchange for dairy product imports from abroad. The Company is ambitious to develop the dairy cattle husbandry in Sri Lanka with a view to establish a continuous and trustworthy flow of quality raw materials to the dairy industry. An ISO 22000:2018 certified Company, Pelwatte Dairy owns one of the most modern dairy factories (designed around Danish technology) that operates in Sri Lankan dairy sector at present.

ANALISIS KANDUNGAN GIZI TERHADAP ROTI PIPIH DENGAN SUBTITUSI TEPUNG BIJI ALPUKAT Various kinds of plants have been used as medicinal plants since ancient times, considering that medical costs are not affordable for everyone, natural medicine with traditional medicinal plants is seen as an affordable alternative. Like the avocado. Avocado (Persea americana) can be used as medicine. Avocado fruit besides the flesh which has a high nutritional content, avocado seeds also have a high nutritional content. Research shows avocado seeds have greater properties because their antioxidant content can be up to 70%. The purpose of this study is to determine the nutritional content of flat bread with avocado seed flour substitution. This research was conducted at the Feed Laboratory of the Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Hassanuddin University, Makassar, South Sulawesi by using the experimental laboratory method or trial method. The results of the research included 39.45% water content, 1.66% ash content, 8.24% crude protein content, 0.43% fat content, 1.47% fiber content, and 233 ppm flavonoids content.

Rain rain go away, come again some other day! Record rainfall this month has put a damper on most outdoor gardening activities and with the ground still frozen solid under all that muck all I can say is yuck.:) So meet the Guytons, looks like they have lots of sunny weather. Here is another forest garden video for all you weed loving "hippies" whom, like me, never did care to color within the lines as a child. Synopsis from YouTube: The Guytons started planting their food forest in 1998 on two acres of bare land in Riverton, New Zealand. This style of gardening was new to Southland so their neighbours did not approve. Now it is an established food forest with hundreds of different plant species. Fruit and nut trees, berries and herbs and wild plants all blended together in a productive and sustainable way. Harvest time is now upon us 4 hours ago

The San Marzano D.O.P. tomato was born in a well-defined territory that includes the Agro Sarnese-Nocerino and the Acerrano-Nolano, the Pompeiana-Stabiese area and part of Montorese, for a total of 41 municipalities. Only in this well-defined area are present the optimal conditions for the cultivation of its characteristic plant. The Mediterranean climate and the lands made particularly fertile by volcanic residues, in fact, are essential elements for the perfect maturation of the San Marzano and for the unique intensity of its flavor. The San Marzano tomato from Agro Sarnese-Nocerino has enjoyed protected designation of origin (PDO) since 1996 and is therefore protected in cases of imitation, usurpation or evocation or against practices that could mislead consumers regarding the true origin of the product. San Marzano tomatoes are known and appreciated all over the world not only for their unique flavor but also for the numerous health benefits, just think that in America "San Marzano" is a synonym of tomato, and that boasts a large number of attempts at counterfeiting. The San Marzano P.D.O. tomato of Solania are the symbol of authenticity and genuineness to be exported throughout Italy and the world.

Berry Season, Bella Organics 2012 Berries, beets and juice, a few of my favorite things! This week was one of reflection and appreciation for the amazing produce and farmers in the Northwest. As berry season is in full swing I thought I’d take the opportunity to go berry picking and see the berry fields for myself. I headed out to Bella Organics on Sauvie Island and was greeted with row upon row of perfect berries. I was delighted to spend the afternoon harvesting berries and recognizing the hard work that goes into the process. I then was greeted this morning at our kitchen with 50 pounds of beautiful gigantic beets from New Earth Farm. Beets like I’ve never seen before! So freshly pulled that I was also met by a small frog and a few slugs. This round of beets was extra special for Pure Simple Juice as they were grown using our own compost. Each week the produce seconds get swept away and carried out to the farm to be composted using the really awesome Bokashi composting process. Since we’ve been in business a year now this year’s beet crop was literally grown in part by us! And the juice of course. This week we’ll be at the PSU Farmers Market 8:30-2pm with Blueberry Ginger Juice & Apple Kale Mint. Come enjoy with us! New Earth Farm, Beets 2012

Food and Energy By 2050, the world’s population will grow by 40 percent which will create another 2.5 billion people who will need to eat and power their lives. During the same time period, global energy needs will likely double. And unless current trends change, carbon dioxide emissions that contribute to global warming could increase by 80 percent. Government officials are searching for low-carbon solutions to provide food and fuel. Sugarcane can help, and Brazil has emerged as a leader in providing both food and energy from its diversified and efficient agricultural sector. Consider the following: Production of both food and biofuels has increased significantly in Brazil. In the last 20 years, the volume of sugarcane harvested and processed in Brazil has almost tripled to meet rising demand for sugarcane ethanol and bioelectricity. During that time, there has been no drop in Brazilian food production. In fact, Brazil’s grain production doubled during the past ten years. Besides sugar and ethanol, Brazil is the world’s leading exporter of beef, coffee, orange juice and poultry. The country is not just feeding itself better but also much of the world with its high-productivity agriculture. Sugarcane already does a lot with a little land. Sugarcane uses a very small amount of land when compared to other agricultural activities. Ethanol production currently occupies 4.6 million hectares of farmland, which is only 1.4 percent of Brazil’s 330 million hectares of agricultural land (arable land and pastures). Yet from this small portion of land, Brazil has been able to replace almost 42 percent of its gasoline needs with sugarcane ethanol while also exporting ethanol to the United States, Europe and other markets. Sugarcane for ethanol production requires less than one-quarter of the land used for corn, one-eighth of the amount for soybean production, and one-thirty fifth of the land for cattle ranching. And plenty of land is available for sugarcane to expand. There is more than enough land available for sugarcane expansion without encroaching on other economic activities. IN BRAZIL – Over the next decade, Brazilian sugarcane production is estimated to double. The country’s agro-ecological zoning regulations limit the amount of land to be used for sugarcane to 64.7 million hectares, or about 7.5 percent of Brazilian territory. Still, the area available for sugarcane expansion in Brazil is almost nine times larger than what is currently under cultivation. More than half of that future expansion would occur on degraded pastures where cultivating sugarcane would actually improve the carbon balance. AROUND THE WORLD – According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), only 10 percent of the world’s land that is available and suitable for cane production is actually used for sugarcane cultivation. More than 100 tropical countries – many of them needing expanded economic opportunities – have the capability to produce sugarcane ethanol. This industry would create rural jobs, increase access to electricity, and reduce dependency on oil imports in the many of the world’s poorest countries. Technological advances continue to increase productivity and yield from existing cropland. These productivity gains help squeeze more ethanol from the same amount of land. Enhanced sugarcane varietals have already improved ethanol production by increasing sucrose levels 20 percent. With new cellulosic hydrolysis technology, productivity is expected to rise by one-third. Other factors besides biofuels are driving up agricultural prices. Recent price spikes in agricultural commodities can be explained by a combination of several factors. They include: rapidly rising oil prices, adverse weather conditions, devaluation of the dollar, speculation in agricultural markets, and increased food demand due to population and economic growth, particularly in Asia. Climate change threatens food security far more than sugarcane ethanol. Climate change threatens to disrupt weather patterns and hydrological cycles. These changes would severely affect agricultural production. In contrast, sugarcane ethanol is a clean, renewable fuel that produces on average 90 percent fewer carbon dioxide emissions than oil and can be an important tool in the fight against climate change. The following reports provide more detailed information about this important issue:

Climbing plants and vines are much from the only options as soon as it comes to vertical gardening. A wall of gorgeous flowering vines is the ideal backdrop for a lovely garden. Now you are prepared to plant. When the plant has its little coat on, you can place it in the very first hole, being very careful to not crush or disrupt the main structure. The little pipe will go within the huge pipe, and the bottom of it is going to be capped to be certain the water goes right to the plant roots as an alternative to pooling out the base of the pipe, which would earn a large muddy mess and compromise the stability of the planter. Just take a look at the huge pipe. As roots form, they move in the soil supporting the wire. Whites Garden Up Mix’n’ Match range of pots and hooks are intended to supply you with the freedom to plant what you would like, where you want. Make sure there’s enough space between the gutter sections for sunlight to achieve between them. Green walls could possibly be indoors or outside, freestanding or attached to a present wall, and arrive in a good range of sizes. Jenn suggests that if you’re working with a little space, using vertical elements will permit you to make the most of the use of that space. The location where you can eat as much dessert as you want as you spend as much time walking. There are also a number of options in regards to canning and preserving, in the event you need to create your own jam or jelly, or items like pickles, ketchup or sauces. Growing vegetables, herbs and flowers is a valuable part of our lifestyle. It’s pretty simple to have a lovely spring or summer garden, but winter is a completely different story. It’s also important to take growing conditions into consideration when choosing plant species. If it reaches the bottom hole you’re all set to set in your very first plant. By now your head is most likely buzzing with all the ideas of how you can construct your very own vertical gardening system. Email us if you want more info.

|Summer 2004 Seasonal Essay This July has been much cooler, not only compared to the one of 2003, but also cooler than 1998 and 1999 ones. Since the beginning of this month the weather has been dry and sunny, the higher temperatures have never been too elevated, and the lower ones slowed maturation processes down, as sometimes it got quite cold. There is a delay of about 2 weeks in comparison to 2003 and of about 1 week in comparison to the last 10 years. Up to this point it seems like this is going to be a harvest with Burgundian/Alsatian characteristics, which means that it will be more favourable for white wines than it will be for reds.

The consumption of potatoes has increased over the last couple of years, with the per capita consumption reported at an estimated 37,5 kilograms in 2017. The graph below shows that there is a positive correlation between potatoes consumed and potatoes produced. During periods of lower production, due to, for example uncontrollable factors such as a drought, consumption declined to match supply, as was the case in 2016. South Africa is the largest producer of potatoes within the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region. The figure below depicts South Africa’s potato production between 2001 and 2018. Between 2015 and 2016, potato production declined by 358 thousand tons. This was ascribed by to drought conditions experience by the country in 2016. Production picked up in the year 2017 showing an improvement of 14% from the previous year. South Africa produced an estimated 2.4 million tons of potatoes in 2018, which translates into a 14% increase for the period 2016 to 2018.

The Stevens Hydra Probe II soil sensor is an in-situ soil probe that measures 21 different soil parameters simultaneously with digital output. The Hydra Probe II soil sensor instantly calculates soil moisture, electrical conductivity/salinity, and temperature as well as supplying voltage outputs for research applications. Stevens also offers an "Extended Temperature Range" version of the Hydra Probe II soil sensor which can measure down to -22° F (-30° C) for research, cold-climate, high-altitude, arctic applications or any other measurement situation where there will be significant below-freezing ground temperatures. For more information on soil sensors such as the Hydra Probe II soil sensor and monitoring information, please visit Soilsensor.com. Hydra Probe data add science to soil management for better understanding of soil conditions. The result is optimized analysis of soil for scientific study and for enhanced quality and yield of turf and crops. Hydra Probe sensing technology has been deployed over 10 years by the USDA and is used by NASA for ground truthing of satellite-based soil imaging. A compact, rugged design with potted internal components makes the Hydra Probe easier to deploy than competing sensors and ideal for remote and harsh conditions. Durable construction makes it possible for the units to remain in the field for many years, maintenance-free. The defined sensing area allows accurate measurements in regions where there are strong soil moisture gradients, such as near the soil surface. Response time to changing soil conditions is immediate, and calibration is as simple as selecting a soil type (sand, silt, loam or clay). Each Hydra Probe is serial addressable, allowing for multiple sensors to be connected to any RS485 or SDI-12 data logger via a single cable. Sensor data can also be sent directly to a radio modem through a small RS485-RS232 converter. The Hydra Probe uses an electromagnetic signal propagated from the center tine of the probe to measure multiple parameters.

The Apple banana, also known as Latundan, Manzano and Silk banana, is a hybrid cultivar of the Musa balbisiana banana plant and a member of the Musaceae family. Dwarf Banana Tree Care. Light. Many of the modern edible dessert bananas are from this species, although some are hybrids with Musa balbisiana. The fruit is variable in size, color, and firmness, but is usually elongated and curved, with soft flesh rich in starch covered with a rind, which may be green, yellow, red, purple, or brown when ripe. A banana is an edible fruit – botanically a berry – produced by several kinds of large herbaceous flowering plants in the genus Musa. The flowers are yellow, purple, or ivory in color. The fruits are round-tipped with thin yellow skin that splits once fully ripe. Some are smaller and plumper than the common Cavendish banana, others much larger. The fruits are round-tipped with thin yellow skin that splits once fully ripe. Bananas are grown in diverse environments in the country, from the lowlands, flat and sloping uplands to the marginal hillylands. Masak Hijau bananas are triploid banana cultivars from Malaysia. This will replace the main stem in the next growing season. It’s the most popular dessert banana in the Philippines. Bananas are treated as a starchy fruit with a relatively neutral flavour and soft texture when cooked. The flowers are yellow, purple, or ivory in color. Type of banana originating in the Philippines, "Pisang raja sereh" redirects here. Take a break from the supermarket and try out Thailand’s banana bounty – you’ll find them hard to leave behind. They may be eaten ripe or unripe and are generally starchy. Their common names can be interchanged in everyday usage though they are different cultivars. The Latundan banana (also called Tundan, silk banana, Pisang raja sereh, Manzana banana, or apple banana) is a triploid hybrid banana cultivar of the AAB "Pome" group from the Philippines. Musa is one of two or three genera in the family Musaceae; it includes bananas and plantains. Light. Rhino Horn bananas, also called Rhino Horn plantains or African Rhino Horn, are hybrid banana cultivars from Africa. The Latundan banana (also called Tundan, silk banana, Pisang raja sereh, Manzana banana, or apple banana) is a triploid hybrid banana cultivar of the AAB "Pome" group from the Philippines. First cultivated by humans around 10 kya, it is one of the early examples of domesticated plants. This cultivar is grown worldwide. Dwarf banana trees are a full-sun plant. This is an ideal banana … The Lakatan banana is a diploid ( AA) cultivar. Around 70 species of Musa are known, with a broad variety of uses. , The Latundan banana is a triploid (AAB) hybrid.. The Blue Java is a hardy, cold tolerant banana cultivar known for its sweet aromatic fruit, which is said to have an ice cream like consistency and flavor reminiscent of vanilla. They are also cultivated as ornamental plants. There are some really important environmental conditions for your dwarf banana tree to thrive. Before the banana tree fruits, prune it so there is only one main stem. The old scientific name for this hybrid, Musa sapientum, is no longer used. The Goldfinger banana (FHIA-01) is a banana cultivar developed in Honduras. Latundan bananas are popular dessert bananas. Red bananas are a group of varieties of banana with reddish-purple skin. For Pisang raja udang, see, CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (, "Analysis of induced mutants of Philippine bananas with molecular markers". Its full name is Musa acuminata × M. balbisiana (AAB Group) 'Silk'. It is a member of the commercially important Cavendish banana subgroup. The first thing that caught my eye was this enormous lacatan or lakatan banana tree, complete with fruits, and some 40-50 little lakatan “suckers” or rhizomes that they had for sale. Señorita bananas are diploid cultivars of the banana Musa acuminata originating from the Philippines. Latundan is the choice of others and it is a pudgier banana that seems to have a thinner skin than lacatan and the flesh is paler and perhaps less fragrant. It is one of the most common banana cultivars in Southeast Asia and the Philippines, along with Lacatan and Saba bananas. It is one of the most common banana cultivars in Southeast Asia and the Philippines, along with Lacatan and Saba bananas. The Cavendish cultivar Masak Hijau is also called "Lacatan" in Latin America and the West Indies. They are a favorite in Central America but are sold throughout the world. It grows to a height of 5-9’ tall and fruits within 8-12 months after planting. Smooth, oblong to elliptical, fleshy stalked leaves unfurl in a spiral around the stem. It has since been discovered that Musa sapientum is actually a hybrid cultivar of the wild seeded bananas Musa balbisiana and Musa acuminata and not a species. They are small, thin skinned, and sweet. Musa acuminata is a species of banana native to Southeast Asia. Lady Finger bananas are diploid cultivars of Musa acuminata. , In older classifications, the Latundan cultivar was once the plant referred to as Musa sapientum. It is commonly confused with the more ubiquitous and closely-related saba banana because they are used identically in traditional Filipino cuisine. . Banana plants are not actually trees but large herbs with succulent, juicy stems that arise from a fleshy corm. Almost all modern edible seedless (parthenocarp) bananas come from two wild species – Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. Linnaeus's name for dessert bananas, Musa sapientum, is thus a synonym of Musa × paradisiaca. They require full or partial sun exposure. Banana is the most economically important fruit crop in the Philippines and the only locally grown fruit available year-round. They are very small stout bananas which, like all bananas belonging to the AA cultivar group, are known for being extraordinarily sweet. It is primarily a cooking banana, though it can also be eaten raw. Linnaeus originally used the name M. paradisiaca only for plantains or cooking bananas, but the modern usage includes hybrid cultivars used both for cooking and as dessert bananas. Most cultivated bananas and plantains are triploid cultivars either of this hybrid or of M. acuminata alone.

GREEN-fingered youngsters got their hands dirty to help CBeebies favourite ‘Mr Bloom’ transform a patch of land into a community allotment. The children’s star, played by Ben Faulks, visited Pennine Lancashire’s Community Farm, in Stoneyholme, Burnley, last week to film a special episode of Mr Bloom’s Nursery. The BBC2 programme, a favourite among pre-school children, saw empty land rejuvenated into a community allotment for residents in Burnley and Pendle. The garden transformation was funded by the BBC North Kicker Fund. Mr Bloom said: “The Veggies and I had a fabulous time filming in Burnley. The weather was really kind to us and it was lovely to see how amazed people were at the stunning transformation of the garden in Stoneyholme. “The local community really got stuck in and we couldn’t have done it without them. I was delighted so many of them came down to the filming on Sunday and to see us officially open the garden. I hope the residents enjoy the garden and continue to grow things in the allotments for many years to come.” The BBC and registered charity Lancashire Pennine Community Farm hope the garden will help promote community cohesion and sustainable living. The two days of filming were open to anyone who wanted to help, and Burnley’s mayor Coun David Heginbotham and his mayoress, Joan, also rolled up their sleeves. Mr Bloom’s Nursery, a series of 26, 20-minute episodes, is returning for a second series as Mr Bloom and the loveable Veggies show how young children can learn from the experience of nurturing plants and vegetables. This episode of Mr Bloom’s Nursery will be aired in early 2012.

What is organic Food Organic food is food that is produced by farmers who emphasize the use of renewable resources and the conservation of soil and water to enhance environmental quality. It is produced without using most conventional pesticides; fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge; bioengineering; or ionizing radiation. Today, the term “organic” is used to refer to food that has been grown and harvested without the use of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, antibiotics, added hormones, or other genetically modified organisms. Organic farming practices focus on recycling and preserving natural resources and cycles. It contains less water and more nutrients than non-organic foods so they have a shorter shelf life. What is Non-Organic Food? Non-organic food is food that is grown using chemicals, pesticides, and herbicides. These chemicals are sprayed on the crops to make them grow more quickly and to fight off pests. This type of food often contains high levels of chemical residues that are harmful to human health, most notably fungicide residues which have been linked to cancer risk. Non-organic Food and the Dangers it Poses to Health Physical and Mental There are many detriments to consuming non-organic foods. These include pesticides, harmful bacteria, allergens in animal products, and malnutrition due to a lack of nutrients. All these things can be found in food that has not been grown without pesticides or additives. This is why organic foods are so important because they protect against all of these things. Note: Now you can buy organic food products like organic Kabuli chana or white chickpeas online from a trusted organic products seller in India. It is important to feed ourselves with foods that are best for us to maintain a healthy diet and lead a happy life. The food that we consume is a matter of utmost importance for our health. The reasons are many. First, it is the primary source of energy for our body and the fuel that goes into every single chemical reaction in our cells. Second, food contains essential nutrients and elements to keep us healthy and fight diseases. Finally, what we eat affects how we feel – mentally and physically. What Organic Means in Terms of Fruit and Vegetables Organic means that the crops are grown without the use of harmful herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizers. These chemicals can be dangerous for people and animals. Organic produce is generally more expensive than regular produce, but many say it is worth it. People who eat organic food claim that they feel better after eating it and experience fewer health problems in the future. To some people, organic food tastes better than non-organic food, but most people can’t tell a difference in taste between the two different types of produce. Organic vegetables are very appealing to many because you know exactly what’s gone into them. You don’t have to worry about any additives or preservatives being added to them after they are picked. The Difference Between Organic and Non-Organic Food Organic food comes from plants and animals that are grown without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, sewage sludge, GMOs, or ionizing radiation. These foods are often more nutritious as they contain higher amounts of vitamins and minerals from the natural environment. Non-organic food contains substances that can harm our health through chemical contamination. The residues of these chemicals can stay on the plants and animals after they have been sprayed. How to Know if a Food is Organic or Not Organic food is better for our health and the environment. But, It can be hard to know if the food we are eating is organic or not because there are many misleading labels in the market. Organic certification ensures that a product is grown following organic standards, but it does not mean that all organic products carry such a label. The USDA Organic seal does not guarantee that all of the ingredients in a product are certified organic. 1) Look for the USDA Organic seal and other certifications when buying food products 2) Buy locally grown food when possible, and buy from farmers markets when you can What Else Can I Do to Ensure My Food is Safe and Healthy? Every time we buy food from the grocery store, we never know for sure if it is safe or healthy. With so many farms and factories being outsourced to other countries, they have a higher chance of being exposed to a lack of sanitary conditions and pesticides. We need to do something about this problem so that we can enjoy our food without worrying about our health. #1 – Buy Organic – Nowadays, organic foods are more affordable than they ever were before. It’s worth it to spend extra money on your groceries because you will be getting a higher quality product that is healthier for you. #2- Shop at Farmer’s Markets – When you shop at farmer’s markets, you know exactly where your produce comes from. Conclusion: The Importance of Eating Healthy and Choosing the Right Foods We should take care of our nutrition, as it plays an important role in our health. The takeaway is that it’s not just about what kind of food we’re eating but how much of it we’re eating. We have to be mindful of how much food we are consuming at one time because there is research showing that slow-eating leads to less overeating and healthier weight management.

Summer has arrived and along side it... fresh veggies from the garden. Nothing beats baskets overflowing with summer squash, snap peas, scapes, sage, oregano, swiss chard, and raspberries. If you don't have room to grow your own garden, make sure to check out your local farmers market. Talk to the vendors and find out what their favorite varieties are to grow and how they grow them. The slugs have won out this year on our broccoli (well, at least till we plant our fall crop of it), but I was able to barter some of my bread for broccoli and chinese cabbage with the vendor next to me at the market. I seriously love bartering food with food or beer for food. Anyway I had 3 large crowns on broccoli to turn into something delicious. I came across this recipe from smitten kitchen and it was incredible!!! 2-3 heads of broccoli 1/2 cup thinly sliced almonds, toasted ~1/2 cup or more dried cranberries 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped 1/2 cup buttermilk 1/3 cup mayonnaise 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 1 tablespoon sugar This is not required, but I prefer to blanch my broccoli first. Boil water on your stove, and add your broccoli for 30 sec- 1 minute. This softens the broccoli just enough for those who don't like it raw and it also brightens the green coloring of it. Chop up your broccoli heads first and then your stalks into small pieces. Place those into a bowl with your cranberries and chopped onions. If you have sliced almonds place them in an oven at 350 for about 5-10minutes to toast them. Toasting really brings out the flavor in the almonds. Add the almonds to the broccoli mixture. Mix up the dressing ingredients, and add to the broccoli mixture. If you didn't use 3 heads of broccoli you might not need all the dressing. Voila! Refrigerate and enjoy!

Document Type : Original Article Post Graduate Institute of Agriculture, University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka Faculty of Agriculture, University of Peradeniya The demand for food and energy is increasing at a fast rate and their security has become the prime issue in especially developing countries like Sri Lanka. Conventional fossil fuel-based electricity generation has become a challenging task for the economy as well as for the environment. Therefore, moving to renewable energy has currently grown in the world than ever before as a result of the Paris agreement launched in 2015 and in line with Sustainable Development Goal 7. Photovoltaic based electricity generation is one of the best options for the country as it blessed with an ample amount of solar radiation. Rooftops of houses, buildings, and other suitable infrastructures would be the best places to establish the PV panels. Nevertheless, it needs to expand up to a considerable area of land of photo-voltaic panels to cater to the increasing demand for energy which is available to feed the ever-increasing population. Agri-voltaic system has been proposed as a mixed system, combining photovoltaic with agriculture at the same time on the same land to capture solar energy, for both energy generation and food production while maximizing the solar efficiency on the land. The main eco-physiological constraint for the crop production under the Photovoltaic is the light reduction. Since the inadequate information about most of the crops under the shade conditions, it is extremely difficult to recommend some crop species for their ability to shade tolerance. The use of shading (PV panels) requires more crop-specific research to determine the optimum percentage of panels and their arrangement that do not reduce agricultural production. Crop yield variation with panel shading and practicalities to maximize the system need to be studied extensively. This paper reviews the potential of the Agri-voltaic system and identifies the research gaps in selecting suitable crops under the PV panels.

Are there many farmers expert in negotiating licenses on patents? Truth is, this is a specialized field of corporate law on which companies like Monsanto spend millions to pay banks of attorneys. The company that owns the technology (the Seller) fields a team of businessmen and attorneys to negotiate the license with a prospective client. The Buyer also uses a team of individuals to evaluate the technology, decide what it could mean to the Buyer's bottom line or strategic position and after lots of negotiating the parties sign a contract. Some of the terms and conditions of such a contract include "Exclusivity" of the deal (meaning how many other buyers can the Seller sell the technology to), "Most Favored Nations" meaning the Buyer wants the best deal offered any other buyer if the deal is not exclusive, "Cost (or loss)-sharing" if the expected economic benefit promised to the Buyer does not materialize for any particular reason. No deal between chemical manufacturers and consumer companies like Proctor & Gamble, or between biotech firms and pharmaceutical giants like Merck is finalized before the party taking the majority of the risk negotiates to receive the majority of the profit. It's a basic law of economics! How many farmers had a team of attorneys review their Seed Contract? How many of you believe farmers in other countries or other parts of the U.S. pay as much for their technology fees as you do? How many farmers feel that providing the same seed to other countries at a lower price hurt two ways, by giving the other countries a cost advantage and, secondly, by creating new export competitors that cause commodity prices to fall everywhere. How many of you feel the Seller shoulders some of the risk in the event commodity prices prevent you from making a profit on the crop for which you paid a Technology fee? How many of you feel that the Contract you signed only protected the seed company? How many farmers feel they get the majority of the profit after buying the transgenic seed and paying the technology fee? The following analysis illustrates how technology royalties and the premiums paid for brand-name Roundup® pricing contribute to Monsanto's bottom line, even as US growers struggle with falling commodity prices and the rising cost of brand-name crop inputs. Remember, the estimates found below only concern the structure of extra charges paid to Monsanto and do not include the base revenue Monsanto receives for each pound of technical glyphosate they sell to "private label" companies or growers, in the form of Roundup Ultra or UltraMAX. That would add about $700 million to the $1.7 billion below. Monsanto insists the technology fee, royalties and premium prices allow them to invest in new technologies like genomic research. General and Specific Crop Assumptions of the Analysis 1. Problems with GMO-crop exports or GMO-induced foreign crop surpluses will not further impact commodity prices this year. Cotton: The following assumes 16 M acres of cotton planted in the US @ $.52 / lb of lint; 700 lbs of lint / ac; 4 acres per 50 lb bag (35,000 plants per acre); $400 per acre for crop inputs before any technology fee is assessed for Roundup Ready® (RR) seed; and excluding all fixed costs. There is 50% market penetration of RR and stacked gene; $12 more per gallon for brand-name Ultra than for generic. Corn: The following assumes 76 M acres of corn planted in the US @ $2.25 / bushel; 150 bushels / acre; 3 acres of seed per 50 lb bag (80,000 unit count); $260 per acre for crop inputs before technology fee hidden in RR seed; and excluding any fixed costs. There is 10% market penetration of RR and stacked seed; $12 more per gallon for brand-name Ultra than for generic. Soybeans: The following assumes 76 M acres of soybeans planted in the US @ $4.30 / bushel, 55 bushels / acre, 2/3 of an acre planted per 50 lb bag (230,000 plants / acre), $120 per acre for crop inputs before technology fee hidden in RR seed; and excluding any fixed costs. There is 63% market penetration of RR seed; $12 more per gallon for brand-name Ultra than for generic. 1 At current commodity pricing, royalty itself consumes 20-50+% of the gross profit. |Copyright © 2004

The purpose of the study was to determine the extent of the effect of using planting material (seeds with buds on different segments of one stem on germination in an effort to improve the quality of sugarcane cultivation techniques. This research method used a Randomized Block Design (RBD) experiment with three replications. The detail treatment was as follows: M1: budding eyes number 7b M2: budding eyes number 8, M3: budding eyes number 9 M4: budding eyes number 10, M5: budding eyes number 11, M6: budding eyes number 12, M7: budding eyes number 13, M8: budding eyes number 14, M9: budding eyes number 15. Using the Excel data analysis tool, the results showed a very significant effect on the acceleration of germination and dry weight of sprouts, as well as a significant effect on the number of leaves, number of roots, length roots, and increased wet weight due to the treatment of the location of the buds on the stem cuttings of sugarcane plants acceleration of germination and root length as well as wet weight and dry weight to The best sprouts were indicated by the treatment of the location of the 11th segment (M5) buds. The highest number of leaves and number of roots was indicated by the location of the buds 12 (M6). The acceleration of increasing the number of leaves, number of roots, root length, wet weight and dry weight of the lowest sprouts is always indicated by the location of the shoots on Section 7 (M1).

BRAZIL – TECHNOLOGIES ADAPTED TO CERRADO CONDITIONS November 8, 2012 in Uncategorized The Coffee Research Consortium has developed different techniques to improve coffee cultivation in Cerrado-type (savannah) areas of Brazil. Among them is controlled water stress, which helps to make flowering more uniform; and phosphate fertilization, that allows significant increases in productivity. Another important technique is the use of Brachiaria grass between coffee lines to incorporate nutrients, particularly phosphorus, into the soil and to control weed since it reduces the need for reaping and herbicide Source: Embrapa Café

About Good Enough Ranch After living in NYC in a small, shared, 4 bedroom apartment, I decided to move to Texas and buy a ranch. Living a sustainable lifestyle is important to me and was hard to do in NYC. Buying a ranch allowed me to grow food in a sustainable way that benefits the land and treats the animals humanely. I use these practices to raise meat for other families that are unable to do it on their own. How are you a sustainable farm? We use sustainable agriculture practices that include rotating our animals regularly. It is a lot of work, but this allows us to raise more animals for everyone, and keeps the land from being over-grazed. It also allows the animals to stay healthier because they are on new, fresh grass, weekly. Out pastures are building up better health and flourishing due to the way we rotate our animals. Is the meat organic? The meat is not certified organic by the USDA. No pesticides are used on the property and animals forage for their food. how do I get my meat that I ordered? Delivery is available for free, every day, in and around Lockhart. We have regular, deliveries throughout the month to doorsteps in New Braunfels and Austin. Subscribe or follow us on Facebook and Instagram to find out what day we're delivering. Meat can also be picked up at the ranch, and you can visit with the animals and see how they are taken care of. Once you place your order online, we will communicate via email on the best way to pick up the meat. You can always reach us at [email protected] how do i stay informed about available meat? Follow us on Instagram, @goodenoughranch and sign up using the Subscribe Form below. We will send out updates when more meat is available. Is the meat antibiotic and hormone free? All of our meat is hormone free. We rarely use antibiotics on our meat, but we will if it is needed. Our beef has never had antibiotics, but our pigs, during the winter, sometimes need some. If you want antibiotic free meat, just reach out to us and we can tell you what meat on our website has had antibiotics or not. It might also be beneficial to look into buying in bulk so you have 1/2 of a hog stocked up in your freezer that is antibiotic free.

When I met my hubby at the ripe 'old' age of 14, he introduced me to the world of farming. His family no longer farmed the land they owned- having rented it out to a neighbor, but still lived on it and I was able to watch the day-to-day life of farming. My father-in-law loved to garden and some years his garden reached around a half acre in size, though it was often much smaller than that. He grew things that he and my mother-in-law would never eat, but loved growing anyway and giving his produce away to family and friends. When we moved from town out to the country on 10 acres, we put in a decent sized garden and have grown okra, green beans, tomatoes (of course!!), peppers, watermelon, and even our own pumpkins (edible). I love having a big garden, but umm, remember how I said I didn't grow up in the country. Well, I didn't grow up to love the hot, humid, bug infested summer months either. So while I'm all excited in April/May to get the seeds and plants in the ground, I usually have given up on it all around Mid July/August- yes about the time to harvest, but also weed!! So after several years of fighting the heat and bugs and long hours that it takes to keep up with a large garden (also around the time I found out I have R.A. so crawling around on the ground can be painful sometimes), we decided to scale back the garden a whole lot... |A picture from last year.| This morning, since it wasn't too hot yet, I decided to go out to our itty-bitty garden and take some pictures. Hope you are having a wonderful day!!

The Cherry Laurel Guide Cherry laurels, known for their lush foliage and versatile nature, present a captivating addition to any landscape. With glossy, evergreen leaves and a robust growth habit, cherry laurels bring a touch of sophistication to gardens and outdoor settings. These plants are celebrated for their adaptability, thriving in diverse conditions with the right care. Whether you aim to establish a vibrant hedge, enhance privacy, or introduce an elegant focal point, cherry laurels stand out as an excellent choice. Explore the world of cherry laurels and discover how these resilient and aesthetically pleasing plants can elevate the beauty of your outdoor space. Cherry laurels, with their robust and versatile nature, demand thoughtful consideration during the planting process to ensure their successful establishment and vibrant growth. Here are essential guidelines for planting and caring for cherry laurels: Soil: Cherry laurels thrive in well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. They prefer a slightly acidic soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0. To create an optimal planting environment, prepare the site by loosening the soil and incorporating generous amounts of compost or organic matter. This not only enhances drainage but also fosters fertility, providing a nutrient-rich foundation for the cherry laurel. Sunlight: Cherry laurels prefer exposure to full sun, although they exhibit versatility in tolerating partial shade. When selecting a planting location, prioritize areas that receive at least six hours of direct sunlight each day. In regions with hot and dry climates, cherry laurels can tolerate some shade, ensuring adaptability to varying environmental conditions. Watering: Adequate and consistent watering is crucial, especially during the initial stages of cherry laurel establishment. Deeply water the plant immediately after planting and continue with regular irrigation throughout the first year. Adjust the watering frequency, aiming for deep and thorough watering once or twice a week, depending on rainfall and soil moisture levels. It is essential to avoid overwatering, as excess moisture can lead to root rot. Mulching: Applying a layer of organic mulch around the base of the cherry laurel offers multiple benefits. Mulch helps conserve soil moisture, suppresses weed growth, and regulates soil temperature. Utilize materials such as wood chips, bark, or compost as mulch. Maintain a gap of a few inches between the mulch and the trunk to prevent excess moisture accumulation around the plant's base. Pruning: Cherry laurels typically require minimal pruning to maintain a strong and balanced structure. Focus on removing any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. The ideal time for pruning is during late winter or early spring when the plant is dormant, just before new growth emerges. This ensures minimal stress on the cherry laurel and promotes healthy development. By adhering to these fundamental planting and care guidelines, you can facilitate the successful establishment and robust growth of your cherry laurel plants. These practices will contribute to the longevity and beauty of your landscape, allowing the cherry laurels to thrive and enhance your outdoor space for years to come. Cherry laurel have specific requirements that must be met in order to keep them healthy and thriving. Here are some general guidelines for planting and caring for cherry laurel: Soil: Cherry laurels prefer well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter. They grow best in slightly acidic to neutral soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0. If your soil is too alkaline, you can amend it with sulfur or other acidic materials to lower the pH. Sunlight: Cherry laurels can tolerate a range of sunlight conditions, from full sun to partial shade. When choosing a location for your cherry laurel, consider the amount of sunlight it will receive throughout the day. In general, cherry laurels will do well in locations that receive some shade during the hottest part of the day. Watering: Cherry laurels require regular watering, especially during their first few years of growth. Water deeply and thoroughly once or twice a week, depending on the weather and soil moisture levels. Be careful not to overwater, as cherry laurel plants can be susceptible to root rot in soggy soil. Mulching: Mulch around the base of your cherry laurel to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Use a layer of organic material such as wood chips, bark, or compost, and keep the mulch a few inches away from the trunk to prevent moisture buildup. Pruning: Cherry laurels generally do not require much pruning, but you can shape or trim them to control their size or remove dead or damaged branches. Prune in late winter or early spring before the new growth appears. By following these basic guidelines, you can ensure that your cherry laurel thrives and adds beauty to your landscape for years to come. Cherry laurels, with their captivating charm, demand specific care practices to ensure their optimal growth and vitality. Here are comprehensive guidelines for the care of cherry laurels, ensuring they grace your garden with enduring beauty: Watering: During the growing season, provide moderate and consistent watering to your cherry laurels. Aim for approximately one inch of water per week, adjusting based on natural rainfall. It is crucial to water deeply and thoroughly, encouraging robust root development. Avoid shallow watering, as it can induce stress and dehydration. In periods of drought or elevated temperatures, additional watering may be necessary to maintain adequate soil moisture. Pruning: Cherry laurels generally require minimal pruning, but selective care enhances their overall health and aesthetic appeal. Remove any dead or damaged branches to preserve the shrub's vitality and appearance. Shaping can be employed to achieve the desired size and form. Pruning is best done during late winter or early spring, before the onset of new growth. Utilize clean, sharp pruning tools to minimize the risk of harm to the shrub. Deadheading spent flowers can stimulate new growth and potentially trigger a second blooming, contributing to a prolonged flowering season. Fertilizing: Fertilization plays a pivotal role in promoting vibrant growth and abundant flowering in cherry laurels. Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring or early summer, adhering to the recommended application rates and timing specified by the manufacturer. Exercise caution to avoid over-fertilizing, as it can negatively impact the shrub's root system. When uncertain, opt for a conservative approach and use less fertilizer, ensuring the health and longevity of your cherry laurels. Soil and Sunlight: Cherry laurels thrive in well-drained, moist soil and revel in full exposure to sunlight. While they exhibit tolerance to diverse soil types, ensuring optimal drainage is essential for their well-being. Mulching around the base of the shrub contributes to moisture retention and regulates soil temperature, creating a conducive environment for healthy growth. Pests and Diseases: Though generally resilient, cherry laurels can face challenges from pests like aphids, borers, and leaf miners. Vigilance is key—monitor your shrubs for signs of damage or disease. Swift action with appropriate insecticides or fungicides, when necessary, will help safeguard the health and vitality of your cherry laurels. By adhering to these holistic care guidelines, your cherry laurels will flourish, becoming a perennial source of beauty, shade, and majesty in your garden for many years to come. How To Use Cherry laurels offer a myriad of ways to enhance your landscape.

5 Corners @Chauncey Lane BEFORE: May, 2021 A tangle of mugwort, wild carrot and poison ivy. Members of the Hastings Beautification Committee and Pollinator Pathway project prepped the site (yes, we all got poison ivy!). The Village removed dead trees and replanted with four dogwood and three willow oaks. Phase 1: June, 2021 A bevy of volunteers turned out to plant grasses and flowers. Together we planted panicum grasses plus a border of wild geranium and other flowers. and staked to protect the tender plants. Our Second Planting Party, July 2021 We installed the center grasses and added some native baptisia to the meadow edge. Nine volunteers planted all these plugs! The Meadow Is In! Next step is to nurture the grasses so that they take over the center of the space, which includes continuing to weed out mugwort. In the fall, four of us covered the trail areas with mulch for the winter and put the garden "to bed." We weeded out mugwort, wild carrot, random grasses and garlic mustard and planted another round of plugs over two sessions. This Spot was made possible through the patient guidance and contributions of Sue Smith, chair of the Beautification Committee, and Margie Lavender and Melissa Reavis, members of the Hastings Pollinator Pathway project, plus support from Mary Beth Murphy, our Village Manager, and Anthony Costantini, Village Clerk. In addition, we thank our community of supporters who contributed to planting costs. This garden would not have been possible without help from the many volunteers who pitched in to weed, plant and water the fledgling garden. We're excited to watch it grow!

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could just grow plants without worrying about pests and diseases? Once you start your gardening journey you quickly learn that the natural world wants to eat your produce just as much as you do. I find that protection is a necessary evil for almost every crop I grow. The good news is that most pests can be prevented or controlled through the use of netting, fencing and companion planting. Diseases, on the other hand, are often much more tricky to deal with. Allium white rot Upon returning from holiday I discovered that many of my onions had been struck down by allium white rot. Often referred to as ‘onion white rot’ or simply just ‘white rot’, this disease is a fungus that can live in your soil for up to 20 years. It is very commonly found on allotments, and due to the nature of allotments it is often spread across most plots on a site over time. This disease affects anything in the allium family, including onions, garlic and leeks. Garlic seems to be the most susceptible to white rot. The first year I had my allotment I had some garlic that was growing tremendously. You can imagine my excitement to harvest my first garlic – only to discover upon harvest time that my entire crop had been wiped out. The only survivors were most of my elephant garlic. Elephant garlic is actually more closely related to a leek than garlic which is why it is less susceptible. Leeks are the least susceptible and onions fall somewhere in between. Most people grow their onions from sets. Someone at my allotment who has had a plot much longer than me, has observed over the years how those grown from sets seem to be more susceptible than those grown from seed. He reckons that those who use onion sets frequently lose as much as 50% of their crop to white rot, compared to around 30% from those grown from seed. I suspect this is likely because plants grown from seed are often stronger plants and therefore less susceptible to disease. Signs of white rot White rot is a disease that doesn’t present itself until it is nearing harvest time and the damage to your onions is already done. The most visible sign is yellowing and wilting of the leaves, starting from the top of the leaves downwards. Onion leaves can yellow slightly at the top as it nears harvest time but the outer leaves should usually die off first. White rot attacks the roots of the plants, so you will find infected plants will come up very easily. You will then likely see a white fluffy mould-like fungus on the onion. You may find some of the onion is OK to use but it will not store so use it immediately or freeze it. I have white rot in my soil – what can I do? Unfortunately unless you grow none of the allium family for 15-20 years in your soil, you’re not going to be able to eradicate it. Crop rotation is the main thing you can do to reduce build up. If possible, try not to grow alliums in the same soil for at least four years. It is important to pull up plants as soon as you notice signs of white rot, to stop the fungus from multiplying further. Do not compost any of the plant material – burn it or put it in your black bin. The germination and growth of this fungal disease is inhibited above 20C, so it is more prominent in cooler, wetter summers. The dormant fungi cells only germinate once, so if there is no food source for them then they will die. Many sources suggested infusing water with garlic granules or crushed garlic, and watering an area with this prior to planting any alliums. The theory is the scent of the garlic should trick the white rot fungus into germinating, then they will die because they have no food. It is best done when the soil is at optimum temperature for the germination of the fungus – 15C-18C. There seems to be little research or evidence if this actually works, but I think it is worth a try! How can I prevent white rot from entering my garden? If you’re lucky enough not to have this disease in your garden, then you should do you best to keep it out. White rot is often transferred via contaminated soil on tools, boots or plants. If you buy plants, make sure they are certified as disease free. Alternatively it is best practice to grow everything from seed if you can. This includes growing onions from seed instead of sets too. This is also a good reason to buy garlic bulbs from a retailer specifically for growing rather than just using a cheap bulb from a supermarket. A final note on multi-sowing This year I multi-sowed my onions. I have loved using this method because it is more space efficient and saves time when planting out. However, when you have allium white rot in your soil, unfortunately when one onion in a clump gets infected, the whole clump gets infected. I feel like so far this year I have lost more onions than I did last year to white rot. There are many factors which could be at play here. It’s been a much cooler and wetter year which means white rot is more prominent, the area I planted my onions may be more severely infected, or it could be because I multi-sowed. Next year I have decided I will grow a mixture of single-sown and multi-sown onions so I can compare them and hopefully understand more.

I thought this was very cool as well. The gardener guy referred to this as some 'whirling something or another' Maybe he didn't really say something or another, but I've forgotten. We went looking around, but we weren't able to find similar plants down here at Lowe's and Home Depot. When we told the master gardener that we had some four o'clocks that we started from seed, and that it had been a few seasons, she responded with "And how is it working for you?" I guess there are others that aren't happy with four o'clocks. Now that we got about an inch of rain today, the four o'clocks are looking perkier. We don't quite have the irrigation system for supporting this type of floreing bush for very long. Most of our plants are drought tolerant.

I am saddened about the loss of livestock discovered in south central Iowa a few weeks ago. I don’t know the person(s) in charge of the herd, but I can only imagine their devastation felt. When I read the charges brought up, a few things came to mind. We experienced another growing season that was, at times, hotter and drier than ideal. Both hay fields and pastures suffered. Then by the time the hay needed to be fed, unseasonable precipitation may have made it difficult to feed (frozen product). With bitter cold and drifted snow, access to feed and water may have been difficult, resulting in animals “going to pieces” quickly in such conditions. And how could carcasses be disposed of in a timely manner? Piling and burning wouldn’t work. Also it would be difficult to dig a hole in frozen ground to bury them, and to have a rendering company haul them off would take considerable time and money. It was indeed a tragedy, but possibly not criminal. This is just my take on the situation.

Peas are such a rewarding vegetable to grow. They are one of the earliest crops to mature in the spring and you can use them in all kinds of dishes. In fact, you can eat them right off the vine as a snack in the garden. And since they are legumes, they are as good for the soil as they are for people. Minimun 6 plants per pack

Good timing – water early in the morning, late in the evening or on overcast days so that less water evaporates and more gets to the roots. Soak, don’t sprinkle – it’s better to give your plant roots a good soaking once or twice a week than lightly watering them every day. New plants do need more regular watering, though, until they are established. You can with a watering can – you can use much less water with a watering can. Hosepipes can use as much as 18 litres a minute, although trigger guns control the flow and prevent waste. Free water – water butts can collect as much as 85,000 litres of rain a year from a single roof. This is free water that would otherwise run straight into the drains or sewers. And because rainwater is softer than tap water, plants actually prefer it! Magnificent mulch – this will create a protective layer to keep in the moisture and prevent evaporation. It will also help keep the soil cool in summer, keep weeds away and reduce soil compaction. Pebbles, gravel, cocoa shell, chipped bark or grass clippings will all do the job. You can make your own by composting garden and kitchen waste. Mulch should be spread five to eight centimetres thick, but not too close to plant stems as this can cause rotting in winter. Let the grass grow – you can help prevent grass from drying out by letting it grow a little longer in hot weather. Simply mow less often and raise the cutting height on your lawnmower. Avoid overwatering – too much water can weaken the grass roots, encouraging them to stay close to the surface of the soil. Remember that if the lawn turns brown in dry weather, it will green up when the rain returns. Use sprinklers sparingly – these can use as much as 1,000 litres per hour, which is more than a family of four can use in a whole day! To avoid using more water than necessary, time the use of sprinklers to avoid evaporation. You must have a water meter if you are using a sprinkler system. Hanging baskets and pots – if you’re preparing hanging baskets or pots, line them with plastic and then add crystal gel to the soil before planting. This will prevent water loss when watering and help the soil stay moist so they need less watering. Dry weather plants These are just some of the plants that need less water and that can grow well in our climate: Plants with leaves that are silver, blue or grey in colour, or that are spiky, furry or soft, generally tend to be less thirsty. For more information go to the Royal Horticultural Society or www.plantadvice.co.uk Washing the car Instead of washing your car with a running hosepipe, try the old fashioned bucket and sponge method! Even better, use rainwater from a water butt. Just 30 minutes with a hosepipe can use more water than the average family uses in a day. Jet washes and automated car washes also use more energy. If you do use a hose, a trigger gun will reduce waste because it lets you control the flow of water. Please remember to turn off the hose at the tap when you have finished, though, as trigger guns can drip. Pools and ponds Paddling pools – please don’t overfill them on hot days when demand for water is high. Ponds – get leaks mended, rather than having to keep topping up the water level. Fountains – If you have a pump and fountain, check the pressure to avoid water blowing out of the pond on a windy day.

Nothing can be as frustrating as loitering and searching for fresh vegetables from the market. These days, more and more people aspire to grow fresh vegetables and fruits right in their garden. As parents and communities bestow more consideration to safe food for their kids, the local food campaign is earning immense popularity. Perhaps, most people try to protect the surroundings by reducing energy-consumption associated with foodstuff distribution from faraway farmers. Although the desire to grow fresh vegetables at home seems to be growing among more people, the shortage of enough garden space or no garden space at all is the biggest hindrance. Well, the new Kitchen Nano Garden serves as an excellent way to grow fresh vegetables right in your kitchen, without the use of pesticides or fertilizers. Just place the Kitchen Nano Garden beside the Kitchen counter and grow your favorite vegetables, herbs and flowers without any hassle. Not only does this hydroponic system provides healthy and chemical-free produce, it as well serves as an education tool for children.

We are searching data for your request: Upon completion, a link will appear to access the found materials. There was a time when the average gardener thought they couldn’t grow tuberous begonias. Anyone who visited a flower show last season almost anywhere in the country can tell you about the gorgeous home-grown tuberous begonia bulbs they saw among the winners. Although growth requirements of tuberous begonias haven’t changed appreciably, some flower gardeners have decided that these spectacular flowers are well worth a little pampering. For Good Growth Tuberous Begonias Need? Tuberous begonias grow best in a cool, partially shaded area. They also need free air circulation. Where can you find such an area? If your garden has a northern exposure which receives some morning and late afternoon sun it will make a good planting place. The north or northeast foundation planting which receives light and is not heavily shaded makes a good growing area. Patios and lath houses where begonias receive filtered light and protection from wind make ideal planting places. These begonias need shallow planting because they send roots from the top and sides of the tubers. Once growth has started the planting should never be allowed to become dry. These plants enjoy humidity. You can heighten humidity by spraying the leaves during hot weather. In hot climates, hard to control red spider mites and thrips may bother tuberous begonias but they can be eradicated with insecticides recommended for that purpose. Starting Tuberous Begonia Tubers If you want your tuberous begonia plants to flower in May, start tubers in January. In Minnesota, they usually start tubers indoors in March and expect them to bloom in July. Authorities differ on the recommended procedure for starting tubers. Some say the tubers should show sprouts before being planted in the starting medium. Other professional growers advise us to start the tubers indoors by planting them directly into shallow flats or trays of peat moss and sand. I’ve had good results both ways. If you plant an unsprouted tuber keep the starting medium on the dry side until the tuber sprouts. This forestalls possible rot. After planting them you can start them at a cool, light window or in the basement under fluorescent lights. When sprouts show, water the planting to encourage good root growth. Tubers are ready for potting when sprouts are four to five inches high. Potting Begonia Tubers There are many soil formulas for growing tuberous begonias. If you want to experiment I suggest you consult a book on Tuberous Begonias. For practical purposes you can pot them in soil such as you would use for African violets or a mixture of equal parts of peat moss (or leaf mold), sand and garden loam. Select squatty pots of clay or plastic. You’ll have less watering to do if you plant in the plastic ones. Place about an inch of drainage in the bottom of the pot. Plant one and one-half-inch tubers in six-inch pots; two-inch tubers in eight-inch pots. For exhibition purposes plant two-inch tubers in ten-inch pots, and others in proportionate sizes. Plant the tuber so it has a light covering of soil. Place a stake in each pot at planting time. Taller tuberous begonias need light staking to protect them from wind. To produce sturdy growth and a maximum crop of blooms, feed the plants twice a month with liquid plant food. If the fertilizer you are using doesn’t give specific instructions for use on tuberous begonias, use it only half as strong as that suggested for other pot plants. An overdose of fertilizer may cause bud blast. For Bigger Begonia Blooms If you want show-sized blooms, nip out the first buds to appear. As the flowers open you’ll discover that the natural flower arrangement is one large pollen-bearing (male) flower with a single flower on each side of it. Keep these single flowers nipped off and your begonias will grow huge flowers. If you are entering your begonias in a show get some of the specially designed wire supports made of two pieces of intertwined wire to support heavy flower heads. Propagation of Tuberous Begonias You can have more tuberous begonias of a favorite variety by cutting off sprouts and rooting them in any medium, or by dividing old tubers, leaving one sprout or eye to each division. Plant the divisions as you would tubers. Or you might like to try them from seed. If so, January is the month to plant them. Sprinkle the fine seed atop shallow flats of screened peat moss and sand. Moisten and cover with a glass or ventilated plastic, and place in a cool (65 degrees) dark place. Germination takes place in eight to 14 days. After the seeds have germinated you can give them a little more light. They are ready for transplanting when they show four good leaves. You’ll get some late summer bloom from these seedlings. Dormancy and Tuberous Begonias Tuberous begonias finish blooming in October and November. When the leaves yellow, withhold water. Store tubers in a cool basement or closet. If you have but a few leave them in the pots. If you have a number, remove them from the soil, dry the tubers in the sun and store them in a box of peat moss or vermiculite.

Holy Cows and Hog Heaven is written by an honest-to-goodness-dirt-under-the-fingernails, optimistic clean good farmer. His goal is to: Empower food buyers to pursue positive alternatives to the industrialized food system Bring clean food farmers and their patrons into a teamwork relationship Marry the best of western technology with the soul of eastern ethics Educate food buyers about productions Create a food system that enhances nature's ecology for future generations Holy Cows and Hog Heaven has an overriding objective of encouraging every food buyer to embrace the notion that menus are a conscious decision, creating the next generation's world one bite at a time. From the bestselling author of The Invention of Nature, a fascinating look at the men who made Britain teh center of the botanical world. Bringing to life the science and adventure of eighteenth-century plant collecting, The Brother Gardeners is the story of how six men created the modern garden and changed the horticultural world in the process. It is a story of a garden revolution that began in America. In 1733, colonial farmer John Bartram shipped two boxes of precious American plants and seeds to Peter Collinson in London. Around these men formed the nucleus of a botany movement, which included famous Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus; Philip Miller, bestselling author of The Gardeners Dictionary; and Joseph Banks and David Solander, two botanist explorers, who scoured the globe for plant life aboard Captain Cook's Endeavor. As they cultivated exotic blooms from around the world, they helped make Britain an epicenter of horticultural and botanical expertise. The Brother Gardeners paints a vivid portrait of an emerging world of knowledge and gardening as we know it today.

Drying lavender slowly in the dark is the best way to preserve its color, since the sun will fade the purple flowers. makes about 1-1/2 cups. Lavender leaves also have many uses just like … Despite these wonderful qualities, sometimes they just won’t stay healthy and there are some problems that can result in a Lavender plant dying. These needs and preferences will be your guide to indoor lavender success. Leave the dehydrator running for approximately two hours and then check the lavender. Remove the leaves from the stem and spread them loosely on a paper towel or kitchen towel. The greater danger caused by the whitefly is an accompanying substance they leave on the leaf that can result in mold infection. You will recognize its presence when you see bright yellow patches on the underside of the plant’s leaves.

In addition to the lively nature, it is the love for dairy products as well as the craftsmanship of the first that make Gjirokastra one of the founders of the best traditional dairy in Albania. The sweet taste of the pastures, the roses of the surrounding mountains as well as other flowers determine the uniqueness of these products. The Gjirokastra region lies in the south of Albania and has been producing the highest quality dairy products for centuries. In this wonderful area, we produce traditional products with the same taste and quality as we inherited from our ancestors.

Emilio Painemal has been a companion at the Emmaus Urracas community in Chile for sixteen years. A staunch defender of the Mapuche, a population in Chile and Argentina, and of protecting the environment, in January he took part in the Emmaus International work camp in India, at the Kudumbam community. Forty participants from various Emmaus groups, including Bangladesh, Colombia, the United States, France, Lebanon, the Netherlands and Romania took part in activities centred around agroecology and in-depth discussions on the issues of environmental and social justice. “At Kudumbam, we helped plant and water trees. But that’s not all! Participating in these activities has raised our awareness about climate change and environmental damage. Kudumbam has been pioneering in this area for 35 years”, says the Chilean companion. On their agroecological farm, the team at Kudumbam practices a form of farming that is naturally suited to their soil. They plant trees in the area, cultivate ancient, non-transformed seeds and refuse the use of fertilisers and non-organic seeds, brought in by multinationals. In doing so, they’re make change in society possible. “I have great admiration for their struggle”, says Emilio. He soon saw the link with the situation in his own country. “In Chile, many GMOs and transgenic seeds are used in farming. Herbicides, synthetic products and fungicides are routinely used.” Like the multinationals in India, “Forestry firms are growing a farming industry on the Mapuche people’s land, which is infringing their rights”, he says. These firms are developing pine and eucalyptus plantations on a massive scale, encroaching on the land reserved for the Mapuche people’s traditional farming, in order to develop an a agro-food industry that’s harmful to the environment. As a result, traditional forests are being replaced by managed forests, which is intensifying the Mapuche population’s impoverishment and insecurity. Emilio has returned to Chile inspired by the alternative initiatives led by Emmaus Kudumbam. “It is possible to create a society with a farming identity that is respectful of the environment. Mother Earth needs and has the right to live without pesticides!”. He has learned from the work camp in India that “Commitment to environmental and social justice is fundamental to the Emmaus movement right across the globe. That’s why we’re part of this movement!”

Have you enjoyed summer time while eating your favorite fruits and vegetables but were sad because of the arrival of October and November. As they are the indication of freezing temperatures adding on all, know about the fact that in cold season majorly, every crop dies because they do not get the essential water and sunlight, which is majorly the backbone for their growth. But now technology and science have changed everything, and the same goes for farming as well, and this is the main reason now we can quickly eat and enjoy our favorite food item. Even in the offseason as well, all thanks to halls greenhouses direct as the uses of these houses can soon grow their favorite and desirable fruits and vegetables by controlling the entire temperature of this particular area. How do greenhouses help to grow crops in a cold atmosphere? The coldest temperature majorly surrounds the northern area of the globe and in deep oceans of the Northern side like Canada and the United States of America, the winds which are freezing. They can easily ruin the life of any crop. This is the perfect place when halls greenhouses direct play their role as they have glass and plastic walls that safeguard the vegetables and other food items from these harsh climatic conditions. Set warm temperature Without any doubt, winters are considered as the most robust phase for any plant or crop as there is no sun heat, which is regarded as the essential element for the growth of any vegetable. Because the moisture level in winter seasons is high, and that is not good for any plant. Therefore this is the main reason by which greenhouse plays a significant role as they provide the essential and much-required temperature by their heating panels that can give up the growth of any plant reliably and straightforwardly. A gardener can also install heating light in their greenhouses as when winter hits, the day becomes small and the majority of time darkness around us. Moreover, it is not a good sign for the growth of crops because it is scientifically proven that 40% of the overall growth is heavily dependent on the sound lightning. It becomes essential for a person to install these lights as will provide much-required heating and lightning facility to the plants so that they can grow and give their services to their owner. Sprinkler system is the thing that every greenhouse should have because it is a technically sound method to give an appropriate amount of water too crops. In recent years the growth of the system has been massive because it has many plus points under their belt. With the help of sprinklers as they have filters in it and we can tight or lose it according to our need, and the water will only drain out according to our appropriate need. So there will be no wastage of water, and proper drainage can also be satisfied.

Shrubs are a vital part of landscapes today. While these plants resemble trees in many ways, they have special requirements when it comes to their upkeep. A person must know how to maintain the landscape to keep it in excellent condition. The following tips are useful in achieving this goal. Also Read:- Ayurvedic Treatment of Dengue Fever Know When to Prune Choose the right time to prune shrubs based on local soil and climatic conditions. When purchasing a shrub, review the label and instructions to see what care is recommended. Many people find the best time to plant a shrub is in the fall. This gives the plant time to grow and establish itself in the ground before the weather turns cold. If help is needed in determining when the right time to prune a shrub is, talk with a shrub and tree removal service. Plants need water to grow and thrive. Water shrubs thoroughly at least once every week. Some shrubs may need additional water, and the label and instructions will provide this information. Continue to water the shrubs until the first frost, but don’t use as much water when the temperature starts to drop. Mulch and Fertilize Shrubs Shrubs often need nutrients they cannot get from the soil. Organic mulch is best for young shrubs. As they mature, switch over to fertilizer to ensure the shrubs remain green and well-nourished. However. learn which nutrients are needed based on existing soil conditions and the specific requirements of the plant. Strengthen the Plants New plants must be staked when they are weak. They cannot stay straight without this additional support. Leave the supports in place until the trunk strengthens enough for the shrub to stand on its own. When choosing a support, look for one that is the same height as the shrub. Tie the support to the shrub using heavy wrapped wire. However, ensure this wire is covered with a hose so it doesn’t damage the developing trunk. Monitor the Shrubs for Pests Pests can damage a developing shrub in little time. Monitor the shrubs to catch these critters early before they become an infestation. If any signs of pests are seen, reach out to a tree and shrub specialist. They can address the problem and save the shrub in most cases. Prompt action ensures the pests don’t spread to other landscape features. Shape the Plant Pruning helps in shaping a developing shrub. This task must be carried out regularly to ensure the plant maintains the desired shape. Spring and early summer are the best times to prune a plant, as this is when the plant is growing the most. Many people turn to a professional for help with this task to ensure the plant achieves the desired shape. Before planting any shrub, test the soil. Determine if there are any deficiencies that need to be addressed. Many people find they need to add nitrogen because the soil is deficient in this nutrient. Slow-releasing fertilizers are best to address this problem. To have a gorgeous landscape, a person must dedicate time and energy to this task. Many people choose to leave certain tasks to the professionals. These individuals help with everything from shrub selection to ongoing plant maintenance. Reach out to a professional today and have a gorgeous landscape in little time.

Most of us admire the beauty of plants, but not all of us have the time or green thumb needed to properly care for them. With Lechuza self-watering planters you won't have to worry if you're under or over-watering your plants, the planter will figure that out for you. Housed behind the planter's exterior is a hi-tech German-engineered sub-irrigation system that effectively self-waters plants, while Lechuza-Pon, a special mineral-based granular substance, helps the plant's growth. A water reservoir that sits beneath the plant liner, together with the Lechuza-Pon, perfectly controls the water supply and a water level indictor lets you know when more water is needed. The new, stylish Lechuza Premium Collection of planters are available in a variety of sizes that can house anything from herbs to small trees, and can be used both indoors and out.

Tuesday, 19 May 2009 Progress - inside The seedlings for the purple sprouting broccoli are slowly growing, but I think they are more-or-less reading for planting on outside. Lovely tomatoes. Have planted on four strong seedlings (and two more outside). They'd grown so quickly in their baby pots I couldn't let them wait any longer for their permanent home, which, like last year, is in the conservatory kitchen taking up one end of our work surface. Hope the return will be as good as in previous years. I have three strong chilli plants in good size pots lining the windowsill. No sign of greenfly just yet! Need to read up about picking off certain leaves to make it a bushier and healthier plant.

Houseplants demand a great deal of care and caution while you are about to set out for a big move. They are sensitive to excessive strain and the result can be fatal if you don’t prepare them adequately for the move. But don’t sweat- it’s no hard science to move houseplants. One just has to be little meticulous and sensible while preparing, packing and hauling them. Read below to know what to do while moving houseplants moving services. Be careful of the weather It’s not advisable to move your plants in the heavy shower. Also, avoid scorching days and chilled months while moving. It’s especially important when you are set for a long-distance move. Repot the plants in advance This is one of the most important tips to know while moving your houseplants. Have you potted them in clay or ceramic pots? Well, they are good for your living room but not so when you would have to carry the plants on a moving truck. Clay and ceramic pots are breakable. You have to shift your plants to unbreakable plastic pots so that they are more convenient to carry. However, don’t repot the plants just one day before your move. You have to carry the repotting process minimum three weeks ahead of your moving date. An advance repotting gives the plants plenty of room to get acclimatized to the new pots. You have to prune off the dead and excess parts of the plants minimum 14 days in advance. Pruning brings a compact shape to the overall plant structure and makes them more convenient to carry. However, pruning is not advisable for certain plants such as cactus, jade, aloe etc. Thus, before you start pruning, just check out the specific requirements of your plants. Look for pests & diseases You should also make sure to look for possible diseases and pests in your plants. Don’t do this on the day of your move. Rather you should carry the inspection minimum 7 days prior to the move. It will give you enough time to consult your local nursery and get the needed remedies. Tips on watering before move You should water your plants 2-3 days before the moving date. It would give them enough time to absorb the water before the journey. If it’s a cross-country move, you have to water the plants in between the journey. Packing tips for plants All your houseplants should be individually packed in fresh tissue paper. Get separate boxes for each plant and never stack two in one box. Before you place a plant in a box, you have to cushion the box well for a safe carriage. First, you will lay crumpled newspaper at the bottom of the box. Then, you will place the plant in an upright position. After that, close the box properly. The packing should be done just before you are about to move out- after everything else has been packed. Make holes in the box Don’t forget to make holes on all sides of the box (containing plants) to allow fresh air and sunlight in. It’s better if you carry the plants in your car and not on the moving truck.

MADRID, Spain, – Cuban agricultural workers sounded the alarm about damages being caused by fuel shortages to the agricultural sector. According to statements made by agricultural workers to Radio Televisión Martí, the shortage is already causing harm to short-cycle production for next quarter. Tobacco worker Osmani Poveda Hernández, a resident of San Juan y Martínez in Pinar del Río province, explained that there is no fuel available for farm workers who have to find a way to start the tobacco harvest very soon “to counteract the delays that are already mounting.” Daniel Alfaro Frías, a sharecropper in Artemisa province, stated that “agriculture is at cero, and most tractors are just sitting there because fuel is not being delivered.” In central and eastern Cuba, the situation is similar. “This is something that is having a negative influence in food production and also on the people in general. People are unable to purchase agricultural products by virtue of production being impacted by the shortage of fuel,” stated Yoel Espinosa Medrano, from Villa Clara province. Farmer Vladimir Ríos Cruz, from the Los Cristales co-op in Jatibonico, Sancti Spíritus province, indicated that the shortage affects production of beans as much as that of vegetables. “There will be no harvest plans for short-cycle products, therefore, the issue of feeding the population, of putting food at the table for this coming quarter, is very precarious, because [the government] has no way of delivering fuel,” he added. In Granma province, toiling of the land in preparation for the harvest has been interrupted due to a shortage of fuel, according to farmer Emiliano González. On March 20th, the official daily, Girón, in Matanzas province, announced the rationing of fuel in the province. On March 22, the majority of gas stations in Havana had stopped selling fuel, and long waiting lines of up to eight hours, ensued at the Servicupet establishments that were selling fuel before. On the next day, the Cuban government stated that the increase in fuel demand was due, in part, to a malfunction of the thermoelectric plant (CTE) Antonio Guiteras in Matanzas province, Cuba’s largest generator. This Saturday, Unión Cuba-Petróleo (CUPET, by its Spanish acronym) informed the public that shortages had been reduced by more than 60%, but that “the problem is still not resolved,” and “the situation with the marketing of fuel remains complex.” Recibe la información de CubaNet en tu celular a través de WhatsApp. Envíanos un mensaje con la palabra “CUBA” al teléfono +1 (786) 316-2072, también puedes suscribirte a nuestro boletín electrónico dando click aquí.

Every company needs a business plan to be successful. For VitaminSea Seaweed, it’s our harvesting plan. If we over harvest or do not follow sustainable cutting regulations, we will not be in business very long. We only harvest new growth in our beds, leaving the deeper, mature plants alone as they are responsible for creating good spawn of new plants for years to come. We make sure that our harvesting methods are environmentally friendly, protect the seaweed and maintain it at optimal freshness. Once harvested, we keep our plants in insulated boxes that are filled with seawater until the plants are ready to dry. This keeps the seaweed fresh and keeps the plants from decomposing. As a precaution our fuel tanks are stored in spill-proof containment areas. This ensures there will be no contamination to our products, or the environment. Another tool we use is good old common sense! We believe that everyone, including businesses, needs to be mindful in what they do and remember that for every action, there is a reaction. Simply put, do something good and something good will come back to you. Do something bad and it will come back to you tenfold! If we all take the time and effort to do the right thing, the world will be a better place!

Out of stock Hemp seeds are a gift of nature. This small seed packs a huge nutritious punch and adds a lovely nutty texture to this spread. We’ve teamed it up with activated and organic sunflower seeds and pepitas, as well as a pinch of sea salt. We haven’t activated the hemp seeds we use as they do not contain any phytic acid and so don’t require activating. What is activating? Activation is basically the germination or sprouting of nuts and seeds. We trigger the sprouting process by soaking our seeds in water, apple cider vinegar and salt for 24 hours. Our seeds are then drained, rinsed well and dried at low temperatures for up to 48 hours. This entire process helps breakdown the phytic acid in the seeds which improves their digestibility and increases the nutrient absorption of minerals such as zinc, calcium and magnesium. The drying process is carried out at low temperatures, this protects the heat sensitive oil content of the seeds, preventing the oils from going rancid which is what occurs when they are roasted at high temperatures. Best of all, activation results in a seed that tastes so much better than its roasted counter part! The seed is much crunchier in texture and blends up into the most deliciously thick seed butter. Organic activated pepitas, organic activated sunflower seeds, organic hemp seeds [25%] and sea salt. May contain: other tree nuts and peanuts from processing line Separation of natural oils may occur, simply give the seed butter a good stir before serving.

On Wednesday 5 February 2020, the European Court of Auditors (ECA) published its special report on EU action on pesticide use.The ECA audited the efficacy of the EU's action to reduce the risks linked to pesticide use since the implementation of Directive 2009/128/EC on the sustainable use of pesticides. Their assessment included efficacy of the measurement of risks and environmental impacts of pesticides, and efficacy of the EU legislative framework regulating their use. The special report presents the results of the audit and concludes that although action has been taken at both EU and national level to encourage sustainable pesticide use, progress has been limited with respect to risk measurement and reduction. It presents the ECA's recommendations for improvement, including measures for increasing the practice of integrated pest management, improving PPP statistics, and improving related risk indicators. The special report and related press release can be consulted on the ECA website at the following links: ECA Special report 05/2020: Sustainable use of plant protection products: limited progress in measuring and reducing risks ECA Press release Please contact Claudio Mereu should you have any questions or require further information.

Research suggests that sales are likely to return to normal levels, but some buyers will be hooked Most would say the COVID-19 pandemic has not been a few good years. But for the green industry, like nurseries and greenhouses, it has been a blessing. But will the increase in gardening last once the last coronavirus restrictions are lifted? Probably not to the same extreme levels, according to new research from the University of Georgia. But for some, the introduction to gardening may have been just what they needed to dive into a new hobby. Of its more than 4,200 participants are examination found about one in every three people started working in the garden in 2020 because they were more at home. Many also put in new lawns and made outdoor renovations, such as installing new plant beds and other landscaping. Gardening not only gave people something to do, but it also gave them a little more happiness. “—Benjamin Campbell, College of Agricultural & Environmental Sciences “You had low interest rates, so you got a lot of people to refinance, which gave them money to invest in their homes,” he said. Benjamin Campbelllead author of the study and an associate professor in College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. “You had people at home looking for something to do, either alone or with their children. This led to a huge demand for plants.” Just under half of respondents said they had no plans to have the garden in the future, even though they had in 2020. But one in 10 said they made garden in 2020 and planned to continue it going forward, including 11% of Gen Xere and 13% of millennials and younger. “We saw a lot of younger consumers enter the market because of the pandemic and because they had to stay home,” Campbell said. Plants have been shown to help with many different things related to people’s psyche. Gardening not only gave people something to do, but it also gave them a little more happiness. “ Food insecurity can drive gardening for some Some respondents had a more practical reason for choosing gardening: food. About 14% of participants said they planned to have the garden in the future because they were concerned about food shortages. As supply chain problems and labor shortages continue to cause problems, these empty grocery shelves may not be full to their pre-pandemic level right now. If I’m thinking of building a bunker in the backyard, I’m buying seeds. —Benjamin Campbell Food costs are generally rising, in part due to inflation, which may be another driving force for people to take up gardening. But fertilizers and plants are not immune to inflation and are rising as well. “Plants are not really a necessity, but if I’m thinking of building a bunker in the backyard, I’m buying seeds,” Campbell said. “If I go and buy a tomato plant, I have to keep it alive. If I have a seed, I just leave it in the bag until I need it. ” Published by the American Society for Horticultural Science, the study was co-authored by David San Fratello, a graduate in agribusiness from the University of Georgia; William Secorassistant professor i Department of Agriculture and Applied Economics; and Julie Campbellassistant researcher in Department of Horticulture.

Chickpeas have been cultivated in Abruzzo since the middle age, especially in the Navelli area. Navelli’s chickpeas are characterized by the small size and smooth, cream-colored surface. There is also a secondo type, smaller and more "rustic", with a red-brown color and wrinkly surface. Chickpeas are cultivated mainly on the uplands and the inner valleys of L’Aquila province. Seeds are planted during springtime on a soil prepared before winter and usually takes place during March waning moon. Seeds keep their vitality for two or more years. The harvesting takes place between July and late August. Teodoro Bonanni’s book gives us some data about chickpeas farming during the last century: from 1923 to 1928 there were 32 cultivated acres in the Navelli area. Each acre yielded 1200-1300 kilograms. Piana di Navelli (AQ) Harvested between late July and late August

Traditionally handcrafted foods... ‘Naturellement’ [na-tu-rè-le-man] means ‘natural’ in French and the unit is strictly faithful to its name. Through over 30 years of research and development, we have created an extensive product line of natural/organic handcrafted food products, available throughout India. Our extensive product line ranges from jams to breakfast cereals, fruit syrups to condiments, over 40 products in all. All products are made in small batches with carefully selected high quality raw material, organic and locally sourced if available. Our Products and Services Garden Cafe – Inhouse Bakery – Small Batch Artisan Production In our Garden Cafe you can enjoy our vegetarian and vegan dishes in a relaxed peaceful atmosphere. Our bakery produces small batches of artisan baked goods with carefully selected ingredients, using traditional recipes and methods. We produce jams, jellies, marmalades, fruit syrups, nut butters, pickles, chutneys, sauerkraut, pesto, mayonnaise, mustard and breakfast cereals; all handcrafted and adhering to strict hygienic standards. Organic Farming – Sustainable Practices – Women Empowerment We support organic farming, we use sustainable practices, but most importantly the backbone of our company consists of our team of women from the surrounding villages. Through years of training and education they have turned into highly skilled culinary artisans. Our Humble Beginnings In 1990 Naturellement started its endeavour in a simple store-room in the food distribution complex, “Pour Tous,” with the idea of producing a few breakfast products for the community, as well as taking care of the surplus fruit from Auroville’s gardens and orchards. Initiated by two Swedish women, a few ladies from the nearby village were employed and trained. The hope was that the little enterprise would after some time be taken care of by the local women themselves. But the women, mostly illiterate, needed help when the products quickly became popular and orders started coming from Pondicherry and Chennai. Over the years, the demand for high quality food products continuously grew and created what is our company today; a fully fledged modern production unit with an in house bakery as well as a restaurant and a gift shop, giving employment to over 30 women from the surrounding villages.

Harvesting By the Moon For thousands of years, humans all across the Pacific farmed and fished according to the moon. This style of agriculture was perfected century after century and adapted to each unique place. After western contact, it was almost lost but was preserved by celestial maps, journals, and the elders who were taught as children before it was banned. Studies have now shown that our ancient system is an ingenious method that actually plays a significant role in successful agriculture. At Waimea Herb Company, we teach our children and community this style of planting by the moon. For leaves and flowers, we harvest on full moons. Half moons are used when harvesting barks for dyes and medicines. New moons are for root crops, pulling weeds and maintenance. We take extra care in harvesting and pay attention to detail, always aiming to fulfill our promise to deliver the highest quality tea to you.

Scientists have discovered a genetic link between modern grapes and varieties cultivated in Biblical times. The extraordinary discovery came as experts from Tel Aviv University and the University of Haifa in Israel studied ancient grape seeds found at an ancient site. The seeds – found at an archaeological site in Avdat in the Negev desert – were virtually identical to a red grape used for fine wine production today. The variety – now known as Syriki – is used to produce wine in modern Greece and Lebanon. The scientists said in a statement obtained by Newsflash: “Since wine grapes are usually named after their place of origin, it is quite possible that the name Syriki is derived from Nahal Sorek, an important stream in the Judean Hills.” Further research showed that the same variety may have even appeared in Jackob’s blessing to his son Judah in the Bible. The verse says: “He will tether his donkey to a vine, his colt to the choicest branch (soreka); he will wash his garments in wine, his robes in the blood of grapes.” Another verse noting a giant cluster of grapes brought back by the men sent by Moses to explore the land, says: “When they reached the Valley of Eshkol (identified by some as Nahal Sorek), they cut off a branch bearing a single cluster of grapes. “Two of them carried it on a pole between them.” For the study, Dr Pnina Cohen and Dr Meirav Meiri extracted DNA from 16 ancient seeds which contained remnants of organic matter. The two researchers then sequenced the DNA and compared the results to databases of modern grapevines from around the globe. It turned that the two samples of the highest quality – reportedly from around 900 AD – belonged to specific local varieties that still exist today. Aside from the Syriki, the second high-quality seed seemed to match a variety still growing on Israel’s coastline today. The scientists said: “A second seed was identified as related to the Be’er variety of white wine grapes still growing in the sands of Palmachim on Israel’s seashore.” Meiri added: “The wonderful thing about paleogenetics is that sometimes, tiny items can tell a big story. “This is exactly what happened in this study. With just a bit of DNA extracted from two grape seeds we were able to trace continuity in the local wine industry – from the Byzantine period, more than a thousand years ago, to the present day. “We believe that our findings are also significant for Israel’s modern wine industry, which has been growing and thriving in recent decades. “Today most varieties grown here have been imported from Europe, so that the local conditions are not optimal for them. “Local varieties can be more suitable for the local climate and soil, especially in the desert region of the Negev. “Our study opens new paths for restoring and improving ancient local varieties, to create wine grapes that are more suitable for challenging climatic conditions such as high temperatures and little rainfall.”

Our Best Tips for Tree Planting The weather is warming up, the birds are chirping, and you’re probably starting to think about landscaping. Spring is the most natural time to think about planting with the abundance of renewal and growth all around. As you’re planning what to buy and where to plant it, consider adding a new tree to the mix. Trees benefit the outdoor environment by pulling carbon monoxide from the air and turning it into the oxygen we breathe, as well as your home by providing shade and protection. Of course, the type of tree and where it’s placed will determine the exact benefits, but you really cannot go wrong. Our one word of advice is to plant a tree that’s native to the area. Native trees are more likely to thrive in your area’s specific growing conditions. If you’re looking for guidance, Capital Landscaping is happy to help. Landscaping is our expertise, so we know a thing or two about planting trees. When to Plant Trees Spring is the best time to plant trees, especially the small, vulnerable ones. Planting in the spring allows them to grow and prosper during the warm months, then outlast cold temperatures when winter comes. If you’re working with container-grown trees, or more mature trees, you can plant during the remainder of the growing season. Even these, though, will do best when planted in the spring. How to Plant a Tree - Dig a hole. Make it as deep as the tree container and two or three times wider than the roots of the tree. This gives the roots room to spread. - Remove the tree container. Either pull the tree out or cut the container on both sides to remove it. - Inspect the roots. Loosen the root ball and if there are circling roots, cut or remove them. Doing so makes it easier for roots to grow and therefore, support a healthy tree. - Place the tree into the ground. Take a step back and check to see if it’s level. If not, this is the time to make adjustments. - Fill with soil. Add the soil you removed back into the space remaining around the tree. Pack down the soil as you work to remove air pockets. Leave room to add a layer of mulch on top. - Add mulch. Use leaves, straw, or shredded bark as mulch around the base of the tree to protect it. Mulch holds in moisture, moderates soil and root temperature, and keeps weeds at bay. - Water. Keep the soil moist, but not soaked. Too much water can affect the health of the tree. New trees need adequate attention until they are established, so make this step a priority. Maybe you’re ready to plant a tree, or maybe you’ve realized you’d rather leave it to the professionals. If that’s the case, give us a call. We’ll get your project underway as soon as we can.

Once you are convinced about the benefits that plants offer, the next step is to use them. You have two choices – either buy plants or hire them. There are inherent limitations in buying plants. One, you limit your choice. Once you buy plants, you can’t change them. Secondly, and most importantly, you need to take care of the plants. In today’s fact paced life, it is difficult to find time to take proper care of your plants on your own, and hired, skilled help is neither reliable nor available easily. Further, if something goes wrong with the plants due to negligence, you are stuck with them. To overcome the limitations of buying plants, Gangajal Nursery, one of the oldest and trusted nurseries in Pune, has come up with an excellent solution – a full fledged plants library, where you can hire plants. Once you become a member of the library, we let you choose plants and deliver them to wherever you are located in Pune and its vicinity. Our team takes care of all the plants – be it indoor plants or outdoor plants. Since you get a wide choice, you can keep changing plants monthly or even fortnightly. Further, we have skilled resources who take complete care of your plants. Our turnkey plant rental services are affordable and backed by trust and reliability for more than 40 years. Hiring plants from Gangajal Nursery thus let you enjoy all the benefits of plants without any of the hassles involved in buying them. Here are the salient reasons why you should consider hiring plants from Gangajal: - We have a vast choice of plants at our farm. - We are highly organized, with a dedicated team in place. - Being in this business for a long time now, we always strive to use the latest technology and business practices to ensure the quality of our plants. - We are progressive and innovative – we are one of the first in Pune to introduce the concept of plant rentals.

Deliverable No. 33. 30/06/2019 (Action C5) The EU Water Framework Directive requires measures to reduce nutrient losses from agricultural land. This report updates the current knowledge, used within the RBD authorities as a basis for Programmes of Measures against phosphorus losses. The report also compiles knowledge on new measures for nitrogen and phosphorus. Some updates on the effects and methods of estimation of the scope for measures are proposed, but for several measures the knowledge base is still small. This applies to, for example, lime filter ditches, two-stage ditches and structural liming with products used today. Narrowing the scope of measures, depending on conditions for effectiveness, is a way to have greater overall effect and obtain safer results. For wetlands, dams and buffer zones, methods are proposed to optimise placement, for example regarding hydraulic and phosphorus loads, to limit the scope of measures to areas where one can expect a certain effect. In some cases, the scope of measures needs to be defined by other criteria than the purely scientific. For structural liming, for example, it should not only be limited to clay content but also consider factors like timing and supply of lime. For manure measures, there is a comprehensive regulatory framework, and for areas covered by the Nitrates Directive, it should be possible to assume that measures have already been implemented and that there is little room for further implementation. How long it takes for a measure to show its effect, and how long the effect lasts, are factors to be considered in effect estimation. Measures that take a long time to show effect, such as the measure to reduce the soil’s phosphorus supply through reduced manure supply, should be removed from the Programme of Measures, which has a different time perspective in terms of impact estimates. However, it is still an important measure on farms with phosphorus-rich soil. Measures that have not previously been included in the RBD authorities’ Programmes of Measures, include, for example, precision fertilization, catch crops, reduced tillage, cover ditching and trench maintenance, and adjustable drainage. These are measures with good potential, but where some can have contradictory effects on nitrogen and phosphorus losses.

Leveraging struggles & potential to grow higher capacity & greater health in myself, my community, and the world — by Brad Lancaster In thirty minutes, before the sun rises, I will be breaking holes in the asphalt on the edge of one of my neighborhood’s sun-baked alleys to expose a few pockets of soil in the otherwise all-paved environment. I’m going to transplant native food-bearing tree seedlings into these pot holes I’m making. I want them to be life holes that can contribute to life wholes. My dream is that this alley (all alleys, all streets, all walkways) become life corridors shaded by living canopies irrigated freely and solely with the stormwater running off the adjoining hardscapes/pavedscapes into the sponge-like lifescapes.

Exotic plants would be the response to growth at a summer flower garden and an gardener’s prayer for coloration. Together with bedding plants wait for seeds to cultivate as soon as you’re able to attain exactly the same end result — and also much quicker — together with our growing season? “Bedding plant” could be your business term for a new plant that’s been grown in the greenhouse from either seed or perhaps a cutting edge. Bedding plants generally are increased in small “packs” divided to four, three, or six segments. 12 to 24-packs are held by bigger apartments. Even though it is ideal to create your own pocket calculator and work out the mathematics, in case you require lots of plants, flats will be the superior buy. Buy packs with large cells spaced as you possibly can, when you have an option. These cells make it possible for plants to build up root systems that are bigger and maybe not dry out. Stems. Avoid plants that are muddy or leggy. Leaves needs to really have a rich coloring. If leaves looks mottled or the borders of the leaves are brown or curled, the plants might be experiencing insects. Check out the undersides of leaves for signs of aphids or spiderwebs and other insects. Plants with leaves have endured inadequate watering. The main system may be damaged in the event the soil mix was permitted to dry up completely, and also the plants might never thrive. Fight the desire to get plants. Actually, you might choose to obtain plants without buds or any blossoms. The main reason is the fact that the “energy” a plant spends on producing blossoms takes a way from the “energy” it requires to set itself on your own garden. Begin producing blossoms and an plant in blossom can simply take longer to become started. To decide on the amount of plants to purchase, assess the section of one’s lawn and calculate its square footage (diameter x length = squarefeet). Determine the requirements of each and every and every variety. In case the spacing is just just six inches, then utilize four plants per square foot; for spacing 1 plant, 12-inch spacing. Purchase a couple more plants in case you have to have by insects, animals, or even the elements. Additionally, it is a fantastic plan to plant some in four- or six-inch baskets to endure for later in case months, in summer time. Save your plants in the event that you can not plant immediately and also absolutely free of threat of a frost. Water as needed to keep them. Decide to try to transplant in the afternoon in a cloudy afternoon or late. Water each plant thoroughly. Plants have to pop out as soon as marijuana or the package is switched onto its side. Lightly squeeze the base of the pot or cell to loosen the origins, then attempt if they do not. Handle plants holding them by the chunk of roots and dirt. By putting the soil get the planting bed. Adhere to the recommended spacing (assess the plant tag or gardening reference publication), organizing–and re arranging–the plants in addition to the garden bed before place in which you would like them. Dig each hole larger than the main chunk. Insert two inches of mulch, and mix in well. Place the plant from the pit, tamping into place and completing with garden dirt. Pinch off some blossoms that are open. This can help them put energy before flowering. Drench the soil watering evenly, and deeply. Provide your plants to the first couple weeks with attention, mowing as the ground surface dries out. Fertilize once using a fertilizer such as 10-10-10 or a natural pesticide such as for example 5-3-4, accordingto the guidelines on the products tag. Mulch to retain moisture and keep weeds down. Utilize a foul-smelling coating of straw, bark chips, or other thing. Avoid leaves since they might package down keeping atmosphere and water .

In this episode of A Worldview Apart, I explore the origins of one of the fundamental practices underlying modern civilization: agriculture. In particular I investigate a controversial theory that states that ancient people’s adoption of agriculture, including the cultivation of cereal grains and the herding of mammals for meat and milk, was driven by the pursuit of opioid chemicals found in cereal grains and milk. - Environmental and human health impacts associated with agriculture - A brief foray into ‘feel good’ chemicals: endorphins and our opioid receptors - Exogenous chemicals that can trigger our opioid receptors - Opioid chemicals identified in cereal grains and dairy products - Opioid chemicals and the origins of agriculture - Habits of hard-core addicts, and why we need to view agriculture as a societal addiction - Christine Zioudrou, et al. 1979. Opioid peptides derived from food proteins: the exorphins. The Journal of Biological Chemistry. Vol 254, No 7, Pages 2446-2449. - Greg Wadley and Angus Martin. 1993.

I don’t think even the most faithful of my readers can handle the second part of “The horror. . . the horror. . .” without something innocuous inserted between the two. And what could be more innocuous than potatoes and tomatoes? (Just don’t eat any of the green bits on the potatoes). So, since returning to Vientiane from my land, and having been trapped here due to Hyundai’s snail-paced efforts to provide me with plates (registration) for my truck, which is needed to go to Thailand, I have been bored out of my mind. Okay, if I had some money, I would go back to the land and get more done, but I won’t be getting my summer bonus for a few more days, so I have been and continue to be almost completely broke. But I do have an internet connection and a roof over my head, so I’ve been learning about loads of neat things such as wicking beds and growing potatoes from “TPS,” or True Potato Seed. Normally, when you plant potatoes, you buy seed potatoes (not potato seeds) or use some old potatoes you bought somewhere and cut them into pieces so that they all have “eyes.” My initial thought was, surely, one could just plant potato seeds. Ha! You think, you caught me with my ignorance pants down! Well, yes and no. I should point out that this is a logistical matter for me. I want to grow a variety of potatoes, and, as those of you who live in Thailand or Laos know, there is no such thing as a variety of potatoes here. There is only the ubiquitous all-purpose potato. Not a bad potato, by any means. But unlike the lettuce seeds I just had sent to me through the post thanks to my poor father who already must think I’m insane, asking him to send me actual, living potatoes of varying characteristics didn’t seem practical, and it probably would have got me written out of his will. So, yes, I knew nothing about potatoes, but no, there is a vibrant community of people breeding potatoes and growing them from seed, and seeds are, happily, quite available. Their availability is partially due to the persistent work of a breeder named Tom Wagner. Stolen from somewhere: “He sees so much of modern plant breeding as the domain of technology, constricted by proprietary information and genetic modification and seeds that can’t be propagated for public use. For himself, he’d rather leave shared knowledge and ‘a legacy of helping each other.'” And from another source: Right now, with our commercial varieties, which are propagated by tissue culture in laboratories, we are at a bottleneck of genetic susceptibility. If you save true potato seed, on the other hand, you are preserving the ancient diversity of the potato. Eighty-three percent of modern potato varieties have a sterility problem. Most of them are not self-fertile like tomatoes. Many of them don’t produce much in the way of flowers or fruit. After years of breeding for good flower production, I’ve gotten more free-blooming varieties. I’ve had 353 berries on a single plant. You could plant five acres of potatoes out of that single plant! If you save potato seed, you are prepaying for the future. You can put the seed away, and it will keep for 20 years. I also like this description of him: “. . . a man obsessed with producing ever-better varieties of tomatoes (‘maters’) and potatoes (‘taters’), whose bookcase holds binders with some 50 years of careful notes on hybridization and disease resistance, whose bathtub is full of potatoes, who has sneaked a few breeding experiments past his wife onto the extended testing ground of their back balcony. (Even after nearly four decades of marriage, he says, ‘She still kind of hates me doing this. This is like a mistress to her.’)” And this extremely busy guy is actually helping me choose potato varieties suitable to the microclimate of the Bolaven Plateau. Wow! He and others on his forum are also helping me choose some tomato varieties that may grow well upside down. Tom suggests the Topsy Tom which was bred specifically for being grown upside down (but surprisingly not by Tom). What I need now is a purple/blue potato, a red potato, and a normal sort of potato particularly suited to becoming a tasty chip. So, Wrong Way Cafe customers, be prepared for red, white, and blue chips. Yes, I’ll be smuggling them from my farm into Thailand. You’ll also be able to buy them, along with a wide variety of salad lettuces and tomatoes, right at Wrong Way. No pesticides or any other chemicals. “Wrong Way Farms, the Future of Sustainable, Natural Farming.” Catchy?

CusaniSodano is the brand of the Olivaia farm, which includes the olive grove and the Tuscus mill where the oil is made. Fabrizia Cusani, architect, urban planner and Urban Planning professor at La Sapienza University in Rome, and Giampaolo Sodano, journalist, former director of Raidue and Parliament Member, have chosen to become quality oil artisans with great passion and determination after having spent years working in communication and culture. In 1992 they began planting trees: today the farm is an olive grove brightened by the colours and fragrances of roses. In 1999 they found an old oil mill that had been founded in 1947, and refurbished it into a modern and efficient mill to complete the supply chain and guarantee the quality of their products. How we Make our Oil Fabrizia – The production of good oil is the result of mysterious balances. The right climate, the right soil morphology and the right variety of plants is not enough; the combination and equilibrium of these various factors determines the quality. Thus it is fair to say that the quality starts in the field, in the care with which every year and every season the plants’ growth, health, nourishment and the air they breathe is attended to. As has been the case for centuries, the olives reach the mill after a work day that begins at dawn and ends at sunset. I personally see to weighing them, taking care to divide them by cultivars and check their ripeness, already knowing what type of oil we want to obtain. Once weighed, the olives are poured into the hopper, where a conveyor belt takes them to the deleafer and then to the washing machine. Once cleaned, the olives enter the crusher. This is where my job ends and I pass the process on to Giampaolo. Giampaolo – The modern crusher transforms the olives into a paste. This new technology allows me to intervene in the process, deciding, based on the olives’ ripeness and the particular characteristics of the cultivar, the rotation speed of the crusher and the load of olives entering, which determines some of the oil’s important organoleptic characteristics such as bitterness and fruitiness. The paste leaves the crusher and “slides” into the kneading machine. The paste is caressed by gentle warmth and an endless waltz that causes its cells to dilate; when complete, the paste becomes shiny and begins to release the first drops of oil. I check the temperature, which never exceeds 27 degrees Celsius, as all our oil is cold-extracted. Next I open the kneading machine and send the paste into the decanter, where centrifugation is used to separate the various elements based on their different specific weights, and the oil separates from the olive pit and the water. This is the conclusive moment: the result of everything we have done up to this instant, from cultivating the plants in the field, harvesting the olives, fine-tuning the machines, up to the quality of the oil. I feel, like all artisans, responsible for a job well done. We are at the final act: the oil passes from the decanter to the separator, where the oily must, a mixture of mucilage, water and oil, is definitively purified, “transforming” into extra virgin olive oil. The blue doors of Frantoio Tuscus, where olives are transformed into olive oil, are located along the ancient Via Cassia crossing the lands of the Etruscans only 68 km from Rome and 18 km from Viterbo, the city of Popes, and below the medieval walls of Vetralla. The mill utilizes a combination of technology, professional know-how, tools and working methods that guarantee product quality while respecting community laws and above all, protecting consumers. Frantoio Tuscus is an artisan olive mill where the typical extra virgin olive oils produced reflect the biodiversity of the olive varieties of our land in Tuscia, and where excellent blends are created to meet consumers’ tastes worldwide. L’Olivaiais a Certified Organic, Tuscia DOP (PDO) single-crop olive farm. It spans over the hills of Tuscia, between the Roman amphitheatre of Sutri and the Via Francigena, amidst four volcanic lakes that set the ideal climatic conditions for the olive trees’ growth. The olive grove extends over 20 hectares, has approximately 7,000 olive trees and is organized so that the harvest of the Leccino, Frantoio and Maurino cultivars can be carried out separately from the native cultivars of Caninese and Bolzone, following the various ripening patterns of each. The rose bushes planted at the beginning of each row of trees add colour and fragrance to the fields and mark the different cultivars.

We learn what is growing in our gardens and polytunnels across the Ashford Estate. In Connemara, our winters are generally mild and damp, but with crisp blue skies that are beautifully reflected in the waters of Lough Corrib. This is the time when our gardeners are busy preparing to harvest spring cabbage, tenderstem broccoli and salad leaves that have been grown in our kitchen gardens, for our Executive Chefs Philippe Farineau and Jonathan Keane to create delicious seasonal menus. In the Walled Garden, seeds for leeks, peas, broad beans, kale and carrots will soon be sown, to be harvested over the coming months. We are always delighted to discover new ingredients across the Ashford Estate, and it is a source of particular comfort for our team during this time when the Castle and The Lodge are closed to forage for fresh produce, as they walk or cycle across the 350 acres of countryside that surrounds us. Wild garlic, also known as ramsons, will be with us soon, and The Lodge's Executive Chef Jonathan Keane plans to create oils with the leaves and to pickle the seeds, to garnish his exceptional creations in Wilde's once we are able to reopen. The team will also use garlic grass to make flavoured butter to be served in the George V restaurant. This is the season for sea truffles that we forage from the dramatic coastline at Old Head. Our chefs will dry and grind this fragranced seaweed to use as a seasoning through a new pasta dish, with a surprising truffle aroma. Pepper dillisk is hand-harvested at this time of year - as the name indicates, it has a peppery taste with a hint of garlic flavour, and will be pickled as a garnish for Jonathan's sea truffle pasta. Our Resort Executive Head Pastry Chef Paula Stakelum has also been busy exploring the Estate and finding the perfect foraged ingredients to adorn her exquisite chocolates and pastries. Pine tips will be picked and used to infuse oil for chocolates that Paula will make in the autumn, and sorrel will be picked and frozen to preserve its citrus flavour.

On September 12, 2019 the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Belarus, Andrei Dapkiunas, met with the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United Republic of Tanzania to the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus non-resident, Simon Marco Mumwi, to present the copies of his Credentials. During the meeting, the sides discussed current state and prospect for development of the Belarussian — Tanzanian cooperation in different fields. The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs pointed out the importance of soonest establishment of political consultations practice between the Ministries of the two countries, based on the corresponding agreement, as well as preparation for contacts at the level of the Foreign Ministers. A.Dapkiunas drew the attention of the Ambassador of Tanzania to the necessity of bilateral trade structure balancing through increasing purchase of the Belarussian machineries and equipment, which are in demand in Tanzanian economy, especially for the needs of mining and agriculture. In this regard, the interlocutors met with enthusiasm the intentions of the Tanzania Agriculture Development Bank to build partnership with the Development Bank of the Republic of Belarus.
