The appeal is trifold: Seedballs are inexpensive, easily manufactured by farmers, and proven to generate results. Women’s Fields ,” a project that uses human urine to replace expensive imported chemical fertilizer, significantly increased the participating farmers’ cropyields—and its success hinged on the women in the community.
Black polyethylene “mulch film” gets tucked snugly around crop rows, clear plastic sheeting covers hoop houses, and most farmers use plastic seed trays, irrigation tubes, and fertilizer bags. These synthetic polymer products have often been used to help boost yields up to 60 percent and make water and pesticide use more efficient.
As well, changes in temperature make it harder for plants to photosynthesize, so cropyields are dropping. And because we are manufacturing organic mustard, we are a niche within a niche market. It’s very difficult for us as manufacturers, and for the growers we work with, to know what to invest in,” says Bélanger.
Custom Agronomics is a formulator and manufacturer of private-label liquid plant nutrition, nutrient use efficiency, and other specialty products for the agriculture, turf, and ornamental markets.
The approach allows them to lower their carbon footprints, earn extra revenue, and tap into methane digesters’ other benefits, which include the creation of organic fertilizers, also called “digestates,” for use on the farm. The fertilizer produced by the co-digester is stored in the tank behind it. and we see increased cropyields.
In a move to bolster safety by users of off-highway equipment in the agriculture, construction, utility, forestry and mining industries, the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) introduces a free online safety toolkit tailored to promote safety awareness, education, and training for operators of the equipment.
As sap-sucking insects, they weaken and stress host plants, potentially leading to reduced cropyields and ornamental plant health. Proper Watering and Fertilization Maintain healthy and well-fertilized plants to enhance their resilience against pest attacks. Q5: Are woolly aphids seasonal pests?
By joining the Rootella Carbon program, farmers can leverage the co-benefits of Rootella products, including increased yields, fertilizer savings, and stress tolerance, while earning carbon credits.
Growers often find themselves dealing with multiple file types from different equipment manufacturers, such as Case IH, Ag Leader, AGCO, Trimble, Precision Planting, and Kuhn. Additionally, integrating precision irrigation systems with real-time monitoring can optimize water use and improve cropyields.

Transitioning to such a system will require US agriculture to reduce its dependency on, and overapplication of, synthetic fertilizers. Over the next few years, UCS will be shining a light on the fertilizer industry and the impact it has on people and the environment. While a majority comes from Morocco, some is mined in Florida.
