Satellite Applications in Farming and Agriculture
Rating
0.0 stars

The Satellite Applications Catapult is working on a number of applications and research projects within the agri-tech industry, and exploring exploring new, innovative satellite capabilities for the industry.

Satellites are enabling users across the ‘farm-to-fork’ supply chain to observe, measure, and monitor crop performance right across the growing season. This information enables users to respond more quickly to provide nutrients where needed and to counter the impacts of adverse weather, pests, and disease, essential to ensure yields are maximized.

Save Soil | Why Soil Is Important | The Planet Voice
Rating
0.0 stars

Soil is one of the earth’s most important natural resources. Healthy soils are essential for healthy plant growth, human nutrition, and water filtration. Healthy soil supports a landscape that is more resilient to the impacts of drought, flood, or fire. Soil helps to regulate the Earth's climate and stores more carbon than all of the world's forests combined.

Soil Biosolarization: Using Food Waste and the Sun to Get Rid of Weeds in Soil
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Over the course of three sessions, students act as agricultural engineers and learn about the sustainable pest control technique known as soil biosolarization in which organic waste is used to help eliminate pests during soil solarization instead of using toxic compounds like pesticides and fumigants. Student teams prepare seed starter pots using a source of microorganisms (soil or compost) and “organic waste” (such as oatmeal, a source of carbon for the microorganisms). They plant seeds (representing weed seeds) in the pots, add water and cover them with plastic wrap. At experiment end, students count the weed seedlings and assess the efficacy of the soil biosolarization technique in inactivating the weed seeds. An experiment-guiding handout and pre/post quizzes are provided.

Soil Erosion by Water
Rating
0.0 stars

We all know that rain can pick up soil and move it off the field. The area drained, the texture, moisture level and condition of the soil, and the roll of the land, all influence the degree and type of erosion a farmer has to deal with. Stick around to learn how to control soil erosion by water on your farm.
