After years of research,scientists have successfully grown crops in Martian soil simulant. Although the crops aren't ready to be eaten, this brings us one step closer to realistically inhabiting Mars.
Growth, interception of radiation and water use of three genotypes of barley (Beecher, O'Connor and Syrian) and one of wheat (Gutha) were measured on a duplex soil at East Beverley, W.A. All crops received 11 kg P ha-1 with the seed but no nitrogen fertilizer. Growth was initially ...

Additionally, research is being conducted on the use of algae as a feedstock for biofuels, as it doesn't compete with food production and can be grown in non-arable land or even wastewater (Ullmann et al. 2021). Therefore, there is a need to strike a balance between using biofuel ...
Vertical farming offers many advantages.Not only can crops be grown on a smaller area of land,but water can be recycled and used over and over again.Plants grow on minerals and do not need soil.Many farming products can be harvested more than once per year. With the new ...
In the new scientific (and literal) field of agrivoltaics, researchers are showing how panels can increase yields and reduce water use on a warming planet.

Plants grown in land completely depend on soil on which they grow. The soil factors that affect crop growth are, Soil moisture Soil air Soil temperature Soil mineral matter Soil organic matter Soil organisms Soil reactions Biotic Factors
Plant and soil metabolism of the herbicide chlorpropham in field grown crops of lettuce, scorzonera and Italian chicory 喜欢 0 阅读量: 29 作者:J Rouchaud,P Roucourt,F Benoit,N Ceustermans,J Gillet,H Maraite 摘要: Propyzamide [3,5-dichloro-N-(l,l-dimethyl-2-propynyl)benzamide] is a...
fully grown plant biomass and plant fitness under field conditions (Latta and McCain2009). In lettuce crop–wild hybrids, selection mainly takes place on young plants, leading to surviving lineages with higher vigour and fitness than the wild genotypes (Hooftman et al.2005,2009). Nevertheless, ...
