How to Use Data Collection for Cannabis Cultivation
Data is king in modern business, and cannabis cultivation is no different. To understand precisely what's happening in every room of your grow facility, your facility needs a robust system of data collection and analysis.
Sustainable Packaging for Fresh Produce
One way to define sustainable packaging is: packaging that made of sustainable and/or sustainably sourced materials and that could be re-used multiple times.
Grow Room Ventilation: The Pros and Cons of Positive vs Negative Air Pressure
When faced with challenges of contamination and odor control, some indoor growers have adopted pressurized ventilation methods, manipulating positive and negative pressure to protect their grow spaces.
Lighting Solutions for Horticultural Applications
Luminaires for plant researchers are designed for the grower to adjust the light to reach their goals. Researchers need flexibility in spectrum and intensity as well as precise control to create reliable experiment conditions.
Why Farmers Should Reconsider Pesticide Use - The Value of Pest Monitoring for Sustainability
It is important to recognize that many aspects of the negative connotations that come along with modern pesticides are largely rooted in how the pesticides are used, not necessarily how they work.
Cranberry Farm Goes High-Tech
Previously, Lee relied on hand-held digital and mercury thermometers to monitor the bogs' nighttime temperatures, but he wanted a more autonomous and hierarchical system that allowed for continuous monitoring of multiple variables.
Precision Fertilization Protects Groundwater
The new Aero fertilizer spreaders from agricultural machinery manufacturer RAUCH put the mineral fertilizer exactly where it is needed and in just the right quantity. Motors from FAULHABER assist with the precision dosing.
4 Things To Consider When Comparing LED Lighting Systems
Although many of the currently available LED fixtures look similar and often utilize many identical components it is still important to fully explore performance metrics when evaluating lighting options.
Data and Connectivity, The Key to Agriculture 4.0
If you don't have any data, how do you know what you are doing is right - or even a good thing? Connectivity provides a means to get the data from the fields. The data can then be analyzed to provide insights for better yields or cost savings or efficiencies.
Technology Solutions Are Needed More Than Ever to Address Growing Agri-food Supply Chain Issues
The scale and complex nature of the agri-food supply chain creates numerous vulnerabilities across all stages in the face of modern challenges.
Tips to Leverage Your Cash Flow and Invest Where It Matters
Managing the cash flow needed to yield a successful crop can be challenging. Gains are greatest when agronomic and economic benefits of input purchases are considered and revisited throughout the crop year.
Lighting the Way to Sustainable Agriculture
In the grow, 16 ft. towers holding layers of hydroponic beds maximize their growing space and minimize waste production to as low as 5%, and with a reliance on hydropower, no excess C02 is released into the atmosphere.
Greenhouse Kits: Finding the Ideal Prefab Greenhouse for Your Operation
If growers don't want to go the custom route with their new greenhouse, they can obtain a prefab greenhouse. Typically available as greenhouse kits, a prefab greenhouse can offer a simpler, streamlined choice for many operations.
Introducing Sustainable Packaging in Food Production
One major area where consumers demand more sustainability and accountability is packaging, particularly in foods. There's a push for more recyclable, compostable, or otherwise environmentally packaging options.
What Will Pest Management Look Like in the Future?
Most farmers would probably agree that pest monitoring and management is an ever-evolving practice that requires undivided attention to both your crops and trends in the pest space. That's because insects are constantly evolving.
