One potential way to reduce these impacts is to increase food production per unit area (yield) on existing farmland, so as to minimize farmland area and spare land for habitat conservation or restoration. There is now widespread evidence that such a strategy could benefit a large proportion of ...

Yield farming is a process where users lock their assets in a smart contract to receive rewards. These rewards can be in the form of interest on the deposit or in the form of new tokens. Yield farming allows participants to earn on their assets by lending them to DeFi platforms or project...
The use of drones in corn farming has proven to be a game-changer for Brazilian farmers. By addressing challenges more efficiently, improving crop yield, and reducing costs, drone technology is setting new standards for agricultural innovation. In conclusion, the integration of drones into corn far...
To ensure crop health and increase in crop yields, you need to perform rice growing fertilization at just the right times and just the right rates. With the help of EOSDA Crop Monitoring, you can now use fertilizers and other agrochemicals on your growing crops with pinpoint accuracy. After...
Starting a strawberry farm can be a profitable venture for those interested in agriculture. Strawberry plants are relatively easy to grow, require minimal space, and can yield abundant fruit. Continue reading to discover how to start a strawberry farm. ...
Anyway, restaurants are expected to increase their relying on automatons(小型机器人)—whether in the form of robotic waiting staff or not. Furthermore, improvements in technology will see consumer robot designs grow steadily better at communicating with humans and dealing with new activities.1. ...
In dry soils, planting at a depth of up to 2.5” (6 cm) will help ensure an even crop yield by allowing roots to grow deeper down and access the moisture below . Spread phosphorus-rich fertilizer at planting or no later than two weeks following planting to provide crops the nutrition ...
In 1900, America’s civilian work force numbered 28 million. Of these, 11 million, a staggering 40% of the total, worked in farming. The leading crop then, as now, was corn. About 90 million acres were devoted to its production and the yield per acre was 30 bushels, for a total out...
Those that formulate and are tasked to enact mission-oriented innovation policies (e.g. to increase yields, alleviate poverty, make food systems circular and climate smart) should proactively contemplate how these missions are realized and through what types of technologies and social innovation, ...
