Patented Lighting System Installs in a Fraction of The Time at a Fraction of the Cost
By removing LED drivers from individual light fixtures, the new MegaDriveâ„¢ eliminates the need for electrical power connections throughout the greenhouse or grow room while significantly reducing up-front costs.
Agricultural Waste into Biopolymers?
Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand are also responsible for producing more than 90 per cent of global palm oil, which consequently causes 27 million tonnes of waste per annum from fruit bunches (EFBs), fibres, shells and liquid effluent.
Synthetic Biology in Agriculture
There are ways to improve the carbon efficiency of plants, while increasing production. By making use of diversified cropping systems growers can reduce the carbon footprint up to 300 %.
How Colleges Around the Country Use Container Farms
Colleges around the country have found a way to add new educational programs while becoming more sustainable: Container farms. These farms are made from repurposed shipping containers and allow students and faculty to grow food all year long, without any soil.
Enhanced Zoning Using Multiple Sources of Data
With advancements in satellite technology, imagery can be taken from peak biomass to create a zone map based on how the crop performs out in the field. These maps generally look very close to how the yield map will look after harvest.
The Benefits of Automation in Agriculture
To optimize its automation infrastructure, the farm required an advanced control network to monitor the anaerobic digestion process and maximize productivity. CC-Link IE Field provided the right solution.
New Drive Developments for Autonomous Agriculture Technology
The agricultural sector is undergoing significant changes and is modernising. To take the strain off farmers, many robots are being developed to automate tasks. What specific technical characteristics should ag machinery manufacturers take into account to assist farmers?
Agronomic Plans are Useless, But Planning is Indispensable
While the reality of the current season's challenges is still fresh in our minds, it's a lot easier to apply this knowledge to future plans and ensure they are accurate and grounded in reality.
