organic farming, the practice of growing plants—especially for fruits and vegetables, but for ornamentals as well—without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers, or of raising animals without the use of growth regulators, synthetic pesticides, feed that is produced using ...
European agricultural reforms hit pesticide producers. (includes article on organic farming yields) (Farm Chemicals)Roberts, Michael
A stable fodder supply cannot be created without farming. Livestock raising makes the most productive use of agricultural production and its wastes (straw, chaff, root crops); in turn, it supplies farming with valuable organic fertilizer, manure, with which a substantial part of the ash elements...
institutes were organized to replace many of the old experimental fields. The experimental fields that have been preserved are branches of the institutes. As permanent testing plots providing typical conditions for raising a particular crop, they are used to verify and expand on the results of resea...

BSF biomanufacturing for the valorisation of organic waste Insect pupae biomanufacturing platforms, including the cabbage looper (T. ni), are already used to commercially biomanufacture biomolecules51,59. However, these insects cannot be reared on organic waste and their relatively narrow dietary requirem...
Regenerative Farming: Regenerative farming is a sustainable farming practice that focuses on restoring soil health through natural processes. It involves using techniques such as crop rotation, cover cropping, and reduced tillage to improve soil structure and increase organic matter. This, in turn, lead...
