Where: Building 20, Auditorium
By the middle of the 21st century, the world population will increase by 30% to more than 9 billion people. Food production will need to grow by 70% to meet increased demands. The numbers do not add-up to explain how we are going to realistically meet the rising demand for food. Forecast increases in crop productivity from biotechnology, genetics, agronomics and horticulture will not be sufficient to meet food demands, and resource limitations will constrain the global food system. For the first time in human history, food production will be limited on a global scale by the availability of land, water, and energy. Food issues could become as politically destabilizing after 2050 as energy issues are today. There is a direct link in the world’s reduced public funding of extension and applied research and the plateau of agricultural productivity, i.e. U.S. agricultural productivity has averaged less than 1.2% per year between 1990 and 2007. More efficient technologies and crops will need to be developed to address this challenge - and equally important, better ways of applying these technologies locally for farmers. Simply put: technologies are not reaching enough smallholder farmers. A greater emphasis is needed in high-value, horticultural crops which create jobs and economic opportunities for rural communities, enables more profitable, intensive farming of small tracts of land in urban areas; many of these smallholder entrepreneurs are women, i.e. women dominate the tomato industry in Ghana. Better information delivery (extension), reducing high crop losses and improving the value-chain from farm to fork are critical.
Food Security is tethered to the nexus of Nutrition, Food, Energy, Water, Health, Sanitation & Smart Policy. The challenge of Sustainable Intensification is doing more with LESS: less land, inputs of water, fertilizer and chemicals – that is environmentally and economically viable.
Mark Tester, Chair of the Enrichment in the Fall Program, will introduce this keynote lecture.
Refreshments will be served prior to the keynote lecture from 5:00 p.m., in the lobby of building 20; a cocktail reception will take place after the keynote.
Make sure you submit the survey after you have attended this event.

The farm owner (or project manager) creates a map of their land and tags the plots that are going to be included in the carbon sequestration program. This is typically the first step for farmers to enroll on any carbon platform.
The farmer then commits to following a specific set of practices that are known to sequester carbon and are appropriate for their crop / land.
These practices may include: low-till or zero-till farming, planting cover crops or changing rotations instead of leaving fields fallow, applying compost or crop residues, and planting shade or agro-forestry trees within the plot.
At least annually, the farmer or project manager provides data to the carbon platform to confirm that the recommended farming practices have been employed and to estimate the amount of carbon sequestered.
The carbon platform may collect its own data by taking on-site samples, auditing farming practices, or using satellite imagery.
The farmer or the carbon monitoring platform uses a third party to verify practices and/or conduct independent measurement of carbon capture.
Verification from an accredited third party is necessary to list the credits on major carbon markets.
After verification, the farmer or project can sell their carbon credits on the carbon platform to any buyer that wants to offset its carbon emissions.
An increasing number of carbon platforms have marketplaces built into them. Some marketplaces take a share of sales; others charge users under a subscription model.
In theory, a farmer or project could try to operate on two carbon platforms, and thereby earn two times the number of credits for the same amount of carbon removal. Carbon removal contracts prohibit this sort of “stacking,” but also rely on the honesty of the farmer and other actors to operate in good faith.
Unfortunately, there is no global registry for interoperable data standard to prevent stacking or other forms of double counting, so vigilance is still required.

We were a bit late getting things in the ground this year. Actually, we're always a bit late getting things in the ground. There are always so many other things to do.
Ptichka planted beans on Monday. They started coming up on Wednesday. Here's two laggards that only started pushing through the soil on Saturday. Get going, beans! I want to eat your offspring.
Everything else is coming along well. The chard is up, the beets are forming, the kolhrabi is going like gangbusters. Oh, and then there are the shallots, which don't want to be eaten. They are, therefore, rotting in the ground. Bastards. And for those of you who were worried about our eggplants, I'm happy to report that they have finally gotten used to their new surroundings and are creating new leaves. Eggplant! Yum!
In dissertation news: I sent two of my Russian chapters to my friend, who is now a hot-shot assistant professor, to take advantage of her encylcopedic knowledge of Russian theatre and film. Guess what! She loved them! I'm on the right track! Woot! She even thinks that one of them is just about ready for public consumption. I'm so relieved.

Moving with House Plants
At Holman, we receive numerous inquiries about how to handle plants for a move. We understand that one of the toughest decisions to make when you are moving is what to do with your house plants.
If you are not attached to your houseplants it is best to give them away to friends, family, a local hospital or charity prior to moving. However, if you cannot bear to part with your plants, there are important factors to take into consideration prior to moving. Pre-planning is essential - you will need to decide how you are moving the plants, which plants you are taking, when to arrange for state inspections and how to prepare them for the trip. It’s important that you know that not all houseplants, especially delicate plants, will make it through a move. No one is to blame – it’s just the nature of the plant. For this reason, most movers, including Holman, will not accept liability for their safe delivery.
Below please all the information you need to know about moving plants.
Moving Plants in Your Car
Moving plants in your own car is ideal because you will have maximum control over the environment conditions including temperature, light and ventilation and watering. Plants that you move in your car will likely arrive in good condition, providing that they are not moved in the trunk (which can be too hot or cold, depending on the seasons).
Moving Plants in the Moving Truck
According to federal moving regulations, we can only move plants under the following condition
Airlines accept house plants as air freight, but it is your responsibility to see that the plants are carefully packaged, labeled and have the appropriate inspection certificates. You will also need to ensure that your plants are delivered and picked up on time at the airport and that there will be additional air freight fees. Plants shipped by air do not receive special handling and may be subject to temperature extremes. If you decide to ship by air, contact your local nursery for advice on how to pack your plant.
Federal and State Regulations
People planning to move their houseplants from one state to another should be aware of federal and state regulations. The following information applies only to individuals who are moving decorative house plants as part of their household goods.
Regulations pertaining to commercial shipments, and outdoor plants and shrubs, are more stringent. If you are planning to move outdoor or commercial plants, including trees and shrubs, contact your destination state’s Department of Agriculture about regulations in advance of your move.
Federal and state plant quarantines restrict movement of plants that might harbor destructive pests. Before these plants can legally be moves from a quarantined area, they must be cleared by a federal or state plant protection official. Examples of pests that are under quarantine include the gypsy moth, fire ants, Japanese beetle, etc. Check your Department of Agriculture for a full list.
Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Maine, Tennessee, Utah and Washington require that all houseplants be inspected and certified pest free. The remaining states do not require pest-free certification, although it is expected that they are pest and disease free.
Indoor plants should be moved in commercial plant mix – not soil or sand taken from outside. All plants entering Hawaii and Arizona must be free of soil, sand and earth, as well as insects and disease.
In some states, certain plant species are prohibited or might require special certification stating a specific pest is not present in the plant.
Some states, such as California, mandate that any plant material must be declared and inspected at the border. House plants can be declared by writing on the inventory list the number of plants included in your shipment. Boxes containing plants should be loaded last on the truck for easy access at the agricultural inspection station.
If your destination state requires state-of-origin certification, state or federal pest control officials will provide inspection services, certificates and necessary treatment. You must personally arrange for inspection of your house plants by an authorized state Department of Agriculture inspector.
Arrange to have your plants inspected 3-4 weeks prior to your move. This way, if they need treatment, you will have time before you move.
Some plants are susceptible to shock when moves. The distance moved or time in transit doesn’t make the shock greater – it just takes the plants longer to recover.
The most critical factor in moving houseplants is temperature. Prolonged exposure to heat or cold is detrimental to most plants, with temperatures below 35 degrees or higher than 95-100 degrees for more than an hour being fatal.
Most house plants can withstand up to a week or 10 days without watering and suffer little harm. Plants should be moist when placed in cartons. Waxed cartons and plastic bags will keep moisture in.
When other conditions are favorable, house plants can withstand darkness for up to a week without adverse affects. Avoid wilting and sunscald when first exposing plants to light after a lengthy period of darkness by keeping them away from direct exposure to the sun.
For convenience and to save space, you might prefer to take cuttings of your plants if they can be propagated this way. Most cuttings will survive for several days if kept in a plastic bag containing damp vermiculite, peat moss or perlite, or even wrapped in a wet paper towel. However, potted plants have a greater chance of success surviving a long move.
Moving house plants requires a great deal of planning and knowledge about the nature of your specific plant. If you do decide to move your house plants, our house plant moving checklist can help you prepare.

irrigation well drilling how to drill a water well yourself
Watering crops and gardens by hand can be time-consuming and costly; however, by drilling your own irrigation well, you can save both time and money. This article guides you through the basics of completing DIY irrigation well drilling from start to finish. Considerations such as site preparation and post-drilling maintenance will also be discussed to provide you with a comprehensive guide to the process.
Before commencing a task as important as drilling your own irrigation well, there are several vital steps to take. To start with, you’ll need to identify an appropriate site for the project and ascertain the soil is optimal for drilling. Lastly, acquire any permits which are needed to carry out the work.
Identifying the perfect land for your irrigation well can be a challenge. Ideally, select a plain and unencumbered space that is distant from any houses, pathways, or conceivable hurdles. Verify that no cables or piping from energy providers, natural gas companies, or other services exist beneath the earth’s surface. In the event of uncertainty, simply reach out to your nearby utility provider to ask for a restricted-access map plotting all underground lines in the vicinity.
To successfully drill, the soil you are working with needs to be optimal. What type of drill is recommended depends on the composition of the soil – a rotary drill is required for rocky or sandy terrain, whereas clay or silt calls for a percussion drill to be utilized.
Before getting started, it is important to take into account any permits that may be needed. This varies from place to place, so you’ll need to consult with the local authorities to determine if there are any regulations or requirements when it comes to drilling on your property.
When you’ve prepped the area and obtained the needed authorizations, you can get busy drilling your own irrigation well. The action of doing so is alike to digging a typical water well, but there are a handful of noteworthy variances.
To start the process of establishing an irrigation well, you must discern how far down it will have to be dug. Generally, the perfect depth is in the realm of 50 and 100 feet; however, this might shift based on the kind of soil present and the amount of water pressure desired.
After you’ve established an adequate depth, it is time to prepare the drilling apparatus. This necessitates finding the right drill bit, pipe and rig for the job. The drill bit needs to be suited to the kind of surface beneath your feet while the pipe needs to be tall enough to fulfill your purpose. As for the drill rig, this will be used to power the bit and lower the pipe into position.
With everything arranged, you can begin the process of drilling. Gradually ease the drill bit into the earth, making sure it remains level with the pipeline. As it burrows its way through the dirt, add water or lubrication to protect it from extreme temperature buildup.
When the desired depth is achieved, the task of replacing the drill pipe with casing can begin. What happens next is that the drill pipe is removed and a steel or plastic tube is introduced into the hole, which acts as a supporting structure for the well and should exceed two feet in length to ensure the walls are securely in place.
After inserting the casing, the process of filling can commence. To accomplish this, a pump is connected to the well and steadily water is added until it reaches the required depth.
After you’ve completed the process of constructing an irrigation well, it’s necessary to take some steps to make certain the well is running correctly.
Before inspecting the well, a pressure gauge must be used to determine the pressure inside. If there is a drop in this reading, then it may suggest that there is a leak in the well casing. If this is seen to be true, then repairing or replacing the casing will be necessary.
Moving forward, you’ll need to evaluate the pump to confirm it’s working optimally. This includes a close inspection of its electrical contacts, pressure switch, and pressure gauge. Any irregularities in any of these essential components can be indicative of an issue with the pump’s performance.
To guarantee the safety of your well water, regular testing is essential. You have the choice of doing it yourself with a water testing kit or sending a water sample to a laboratory for analysis. That way, you can monitor the water quality and make sure that it is suitable for consumption and watering plants.
When drilling for irrigation purposes, it is essential to be well-prepared and familiar with the proper steps. Doing your own drilling can be a gratifying undertaking, but prior to the process taking place prepare the area, collect needed equipment, and keep in mind necessary maintenance after drilling.
Drilling your own water well might sound like a challenging mission, yet with the proper instruments and competency, victory is yours. The perks to completing such a task yourself are immense – not only can you save some hard-earned money but also tailor the outcome to fit hand in glove with your necessities. Without beating about the bush, it will be beneficial to first grasp the fundamentals of irrigation well drilling and appropriately take each action that will ensure a successful endeavor.
Harnessing underground water sources for irrigation purposes requires specialized knowledge and the right equipment. Boreholes, a type of long, slender shaft, are the most common method of drilling an irrigation well. This involves inserting the borehole deep into the Earth to reach the water table, followed by a pump that extracts the water from below and delivers it to the surface. With these steps in place, gardeners and farmers can enjoy a bountiful supply of water for their crops.
Before drilling an irrigation well, it is necessary to decide which kind of well is required for the particular task. Boreholes tend to be employed for shallow wells while for deeper ones other options such as rotary and cable drilling are usually opted for. Choosing the right type of well largely depends on the scale and depth of the project, as well as the hydration needs of desired vegetation.
In order to ensure you have access to the best possible water supply, it’s important to carefully consider the location of your well. Avoid any potential avenues of contamination, such as nearby septic tanks, sewage systems, or industrial waste. Additionally, make sure the chosen site is feasible to access and sufficiently supplied with the necessary resource.
Once you have zeroed in on the desired location, it is imperative to get the groundwork done for drilling. All the vegetation should be removed, any potential disruptions need to be eradicated, and even the bigger rocks or anything concerning should be taken out. Additionally, the land should be leveled as to create a tranquil environment for the drilling process.
After the specified spot is ready, it’s time to take action and start drilling. Should your project demand it, you’ll need to rent machinery, for instance, a rotary drill or cable drill. Don’t forget that any gear must be maintained in top-notch condition throughout the process.
Once the drilling is finished, an indispensable necessitation is for the well to be effectively sealed off in order to avert any trace of pollutant. This project requires the solid affixing of a casing and a screen to the well walls and bottom, respectively; both should consist of resilient substances like PVC or steel for the casing and stainless steel or PVC for the screen.
To summarize, getting the liquid to the top necessitates the use of a pump. This is typically accomplished by interconnecting a well to either a submersible pump or a pressure tank. When making this selection, it is imperative that you pinpoint an apparatus powerful enough to meet your hydration needs.
Tackling the task of drilling a water well can be quite the formidable challenge. But with the necessary tools and procedures, you can have the satisfaction of DIY-ing your own source of water with relative ease. Follow the outlined steps and you can not only save some money but also enjoy access to a reliable source of water for your crops or garden.

Watch my introduction video to my homesteading Vlog channel. Glad you made it here, please enjoy the videos and ‘how to’s and the stories and happenings on our Island, through the seasons and with our family!
The below are excerpts from my original post on homesteading which can be seen here: http://www.micahgallant.com/2014/01/25/the-homestead-idea
Broadly defined, homesteading is a lifestyle of self-sufficiency. It is characterized by subsistence agriculture, home preservation of foodstuffs, and it may or may not also involve the small scale production of textiles, clothing, and craftwork for household use or sale. Pursued in different ways around the world — and in different historical eras — homesteading is generally differentiated from rural village or commune living by isolation (either socially or physically) of the homestead
Our homesteading experiment currently includes the following which I consider some of the goals towards homesteading (and the list will never end probably):
- heating with wood – locally purchase from the next town over actually. Grown on island, supporting a local business – as opposed to support oil sands development or middle eastern countries etc by burning oil (wood is also cheaper!)
- powering what we can with solar power – chicken shed lighting. This is an ongoing and costly project if we want to expand it to powering the house. For now it will be a learning experience, test bed and emergency backup for critical things should the power go out
- Owning chickens -the chicks are for eggs right now. This year we’ll raise more meat birds, and then the dual purpose Chanteclers going forward
- Part of this is incubating our own birds – instead of relying on others to provide ‘seed’ birds, chicks for growing to keep our flock up in numbers, we will be incubating all our own. With this we will expand our own flocks and won’t have to rely on others. See my posts about our Brinsea incubator which is currently cooking round #2 of eggs, this batch a Star Cross red variety for egg laying
- Raising a pig or two each year – this will be our first year trying to raise pigs. Should be a lot of fun, a lot of learning and a LOT of meat at the end!
- Growing a larger garden – the attempt will be this year, for me at least, to greatly expand our garden and produce a lot more vegetables for food or feed or for sale. Our lawn is good at growing grass that I spend gasoline cutting, why not have it grow vegetables and not waste gasoline and in turn have it add resources to our family instead of subtracting resources (money / gas)
- Planting more fruit trees – back in the day, your fruit isle would be the orchard out back, not the grocery store. God grows this stuff for you if you just plant a tree so why would you pay for it? We are a crazy crazy bunch these days for purchasing stuff that literally does grow on trees :S . This year we will be planting two pear trees. We already have 4 or 5 apple trees on the go. The neighbour this year too will be planting an orchard. the only downside is that these trees are really more for the next generation, i.e. our kids. Because they take 10 or 15 years to really start producing lots of fruit. So this is for a future generation.
- Being able to pump or collect our own fresh water – check and check. We have a fresh water spring that i use for watering our chickens/ Since our river is tidal, it doesn’t really freeze much so access there is rarely out of the question. Plus we have an old hand pump well ready for action and does work.

Under fire by Indian government, Twitter is facing high stakes in a country of 1.3 billion where it has millions of users and is ardently used by PM Modi, his cabinet ministers and other leaders to communicate with the public.
Kangana Ranaut, a staunch Bharatiya Janata Party supporter, called farmers protesting controversial agriculture laws terrorists in a tweet, which was one of two that the platform had removed.
Hundreds of thousands of farmers are planning to drive tractors through New Delhi on Republic Day, when PM Narendra Modi will join a parade of military forces.
Tens of thousands of farmers continue to camp out on New Delhi highways, demanding the repeal of new laws they fear will lead to corporate dominance in the farm sector.
India's agriculture minister says the government is open to amend objectionable provisions in the new laws weeks after the farmers in the country began demonstrating over reforms that were enacted.
Farmers protesting in capital New Delhi against PM Modi's agricultural reforms say they will not hold talks with government until all three new agriculture laws are withdrawn.

the Mission & Vision of Francis & Thatcher Farms:
By utilizing Greenhouse Hydroponics, we cultivate superior quality crops that grow faster and larger than their soil-grown counterparts. And because we grow inside a greenhouse, we don't use pesticides, don't produce harmful agricultural run-off, and don't waste water. Besides being environmentally friendly, Greenhouse Hydroponics also allow the ability to grow a variety of crops year round. It doesn't matter if we are in a sleet storm or a heat wave outside. The greenhouse constantly maintains optimal growing conditions. The result is a consistently fresh, living, lettuce mix or, virtually any green leafy vegetable you desire for your home, restaurant or market.

Farmers markets used to be a place where one would go to find the freshest produce around, sometimes for a deal. With the increasing demand for local foods and eating healthy, farmers markets have become a mecca for the socially conscious and heath minded. Calgary’s farmer’s market is no exception.
Saturday mornings the farmer’s market is bustling with people. Most looking for fresh produce with reusable tote bags in hand. You won’t find the rustic outdoor stalls manned by farmers who nails are still covered with dirt from picking the morning’s crop fresh for the market. Calgary’s market is a bit different. The completely indoor market is carefully laid out with permanent stalls decorated and furnished. The produce looks like its ready for a photo shoot – bright, clean and perfect! The majority of the produce is brought in from BC, not too surprising considering the short growing season in most of Alberta. The BC cherries were an absolute delight, sweeter and more flavourful than anywhere else in Canada, maybe North America! Some Alberta produce can be found, but expect to pay a premium.
Aside from produce, there is lots to see and taste. Charcuterie, preserves, nuts, hot sauces and flowers are all in great supply. Soffritto sells oils and vinegars at this market. The wall of stainless steel olive oil tanks brings back memories of Italy. We highly recommend the fig balsamic vinegar. All you need is bread! Dotted around the market there are some home decor, health supply and of course a food court! A must have for any market.

The following points highlight the top four applications of genetic engineering. Recombinant DNA technology and tissue culture techniques can produce high yielding cereals, pulses and vegetable crops. Some plants have been genetically programmed to yield high protein grains that could show resistance to heat, moisture and diseases. Some plants may even develop their own applications of radioactivity pdf some have been genetically transformed to make their own insecticides.
Through genetic engineering some varieties have been produced that could directly fix atmospheric nitrogen and thus there is no dependence on fertilizers. Scientists have developed transgenic potato, tobacco, cotton, corn, strawberry, rape seeds that are resistant to insect pests and certain weedicides. Bacterium, Bacillus thurenginesis produces a protein which is toxic to insects. Using the techniques of genetic engineering, the gene coding for this toxic protein called Bt gene has been isolated from bacterium and engineered into tomato and tobacco plants.
Recombinant DNA Technology is also used in production of vaccines against diseases. The mathematics of radioactive decay depend on a key assumption that a nucleus of a radionuclide has no “memory” or way of translating its history into its present behavior. To a high degree of precision, stole some medical equipment and as a result a number of people were exposed to radiation. And one based on uranium, the rate of deposition of this radioisotope is dependent on the weather.
Such transgenic plants showed nee to tobacco horn worms and tomato fruit worms. These genotypes are awaiting release in USA. There are certain genetically evolved weed killers which are not specific to weeds alone but kill useful crops also. Glyphosate is a commonly used weed killer which simply inhibits a particular essential enzyme in weeds and other crop plants. A target gene of glyphosate is present in bacterium salmonella typhimurium. The mutant gene was t cloned to E.
Agrobacterium tumifaciens through its Ti Plasmid. Infection of plants with Ti plasmid containing glyphosate resistant gene has yielded crops such as cotton, tabacco maize, all of which are resistant to glyphosate. This makes possible to spray the crop fields with glyphosate which will kill the weeds only and the genetically modified crops with resistant genes remain unaffected. Transgenic tobacco plants resistant to T MV mosaic virus and tomato i resistant to Golden mosaic virus have been developed by transferring virus coat protein genes susceptible plants.

Oh, Summer… so sad to see it come to an end but luckily the produce from the summer crops are still going strong. We have been growing these lovely little tomatoes all summer and have been thoroughly enjoying them. One of our favorite ways to have them is with fresh basil and penn mac’s fresh mozzarella, extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. So simple, so good. Recently, we received some ‘lemon-basil’ in our CSA and naturally a pesto came to mind.

Born and raised in Estremoz, at the very heart of the Alentejo wine region, Tiago Cabaço started taking part in and working his parents’ vineyards and cellar from a very young age. Starting as a child, he grew up learning the secrets of the vineyard, the soil, the grape varieties, and the whole universe surrounding wine-growing, knowledge which he still uses daily.
Naming the project after himself, he created Tiago Cabaço Wines in 2004. Since then, he has been marketing his own wines, through which he has been asserting his personality and vision concerning wines and the Alentejo.
Tiago Cabaço has earned the respect and attention of the wine industry, having garnered several national and international awards and distinctions. Seductive and serious, the wine range is modern in style and form, yet profoundly influenced by the Alentejo in character. It is divided between the young and energetic “.com”, the powerful and austere single grape varieties, the “Vinhas Velhas” – old vines – which combines the excellence of the terroir and vines with more than 30 years of existence, the sparkling wine, developed for special moments, and the simultaneously vigorous, subtle and fresh “blog” considered by Tiago Cabaço to be the top-end wines.
With access to some of the oldest and finest vines in the Alentejo, all available in the vicinity of Estremoz, with oenology at the hands of Susana Esteban, one of Portugal’s best oenologists, and having conquered foreign markets, Tiago Cabaço is definitely a star from the new Alentejo.

Melting out starts as a leaf spot, then works its way to the plant base and attacks the roots and crown. Remove all debris from the plants each spring to prevent leaf spot. Control thatch layers as thatch provides a good environment for the disease. Initial symptoms often appear as tiny pinprick lesions, which often go unnoticed or are mistaken as another less aggressive disease. The "leaf spot" diseases are widespread on cool and warm-season turfgrasses and are caused by many different genera of fungi. Grasses affected: All mature amenity and sports turfs containing the following grass species will be susceptible to an attack of leaf spot and melting out diseases. Bipolaris spp and Curvularia spp fungi cause symptoms that are seen in the leaf structure (leaf spots and streaks) and the other Drechslera spp a species of fungus that attacks the crown and root system causing the most damage (Melting out).

The turf is vulnerable when the stress is present, resulting from excessive water and nitrogen applications or when the grass is mown shorter. Leaf Spot may progress into a condition called “melting-out”, a condition where the turf just seems to “melt away” as the disease activity becomes more and more severe. Gray leaf spot is a disease, caused by the fungus Pyricularia grisea, that affects turf grasses, such as tall fescue, St. Augustinegrass and perennial ryegrass. Reports of this problem from studies done in Ohio indicate that blight found on hakone grass is caused by the same fungus that causes gray leaf spot on perennial ryegrass and fescue. This grass must be mowed frequently during the summer months to remove excess leaf tissue, keep the canopy open and dry, and remove developing gray leaf spot lesions.

Understanding this cycle will enable you to understand how the pathogen can be controlled by effective management to break the cycle of disease. The turf is also vulnerable when it becomes stressed, usually resulting from excessive nitrogen and water applications or when the grass is mown short and is in shade. It is too late to apply the preventative tips cause you already got the leaf spot disease. Thatch buildup can accommodate disease-causing bacteria and spores. This removes any possibility of chemical control. Apply a balanced fertiliser to keep the sward healthy. If you don’t control leaf spot in the beginning stages, eventually, it will result in turf fatality. A rapid warm-up in February has increased leaf spot activity, especially with damp and humid mornings common in the spring. Leaf Spot and Melting Out Disease . Leaf spot diseases are very common and wide spread both in the UK and Western European countries. If the problem remains, the best approach is to overseed using resistant varieties. They are orginally classified under helminthosporium. Rusts produce spots similar to leaf spots, however, the spots are known as pustules.

Clearing Away Debris
One of the first things you should do is clear away any debris from the previous season. Fallen leaves, dead plants, and any other items that may have accumulated in your garden over the winter should be removed. If you have any large trees in your garden, you may want to consider hiring a professional tree surgery service to trim any overhanging branches or remove dead or diseased trees.
Adding Compost or Fertilizer
Next, prepare the soil by adding compost or fertilizer to your garden beds. This will provide the necessary nutrients for your plants to grow healthily. If you have any large trees in your garden, you may want to consider using organic fertilizer to avoid harming the trees.
Choosing and Planting Spring Flowers
Now that your garden is prepped and ready, it’s time to start planting. The type of plants you choose to grow will depend on your climate, but some popular spring plants include daffodils, tulips, and hyacinths. These plants not only add color to your garden but also attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. If you have any large trees in your garden, you may want to consider planting shade-tolerant flowers or ground cover plants.
Watering and Weeding Your Garden
It’s also essential to keep up with watering and weeding throughout the spring season. Regular watering is necessary to keep your plants healthy and happy, especially during hot and dry spells. Weeding is also important to prevent unwanted plants from taking over your garden beds. If you have any large trees in your garden, you may want to consider hiring a professional tree surgery service to remove any invasive plants or vines that are climbing up the tree trunks.
Cutting and Selling Firewood
In addition to maintaining your garden, spring is also the perfect time to start thinking about wood cutting and firewood production. If you live in a rural area, you may have a wood-burning stove or fireplace that you use to heat your home. In this case, cutting and selling firewood can be a great way to reduce your heating costs. If you have any large trees on your property that need to be removed, you can hire a tree surgery service that also provides firewood sales.
Investing in the Right Tools
To get started, you’ll need to invest in the right tools, including a chainsaw, safety gear, and a wood splitter. It’s also essential to follow safety guidelines when cutting and handling wood, including wearing protective gear and keeping your workspace clean and organised.
Advertising Your Firewood for Sale
Once you’ve cut your wood, you can sell it to others in your community. You can advertise your firewood for sale on social media, community boards, or local classifieds. By selling your firewood, you can make some extra money and reduce your heating costs at the same time.
Planning Ahead for Firewood Production
However, keep in mind that firewood production requires a significant amount of physical labour and time. You’ll need to plan ahead and ensure you have enough time to cut and split your wood before the colder months arrive. If you have any large trees that need to be removed, you can hire a tree surgery service that also provides firewood production.
Reducing Your Heating Costs
Another important consideration when it comes to reducing your heating costs is to make your home more energy-efficient. There are several things you can do to achieve this, including sealing drafts around windows and doors, adding insulation to your attic

If you want to make a small fortune farming, the saying goes, you should start with a large one. Everyone loves to poke fun at the poor old farmers, but it might finally be the farmers’ turn to laugh.
You can’t pick up a paper at the moment without reading about the global food shortage and the associated boom in soft commodities (ie the ones you grow rather than mine). We’ve seen rioting in Egypt, Mexico and Bangladesh, and Wal-Mart has taken the extraordinary step of restricting the amount of rice any one person can buy.
With increasing wealth in Asia comes increasing consumption of food. There’s only so much land in the world and large tracts of what is available have – due to some of the most idiotic government policy ever legislated – been devoted to the production of biofuels. Just as has happened in the world of hard commodities (precious metals, iron ore, oil etc) rising demand and limited supply will lead to sky-high prices: all we need to do is work out how to profit from it.
Or so the argument goes. But before you fall for the next investment bank marketing campaign (if we’re talking about it, they’re working on a product), there are some differences between soft and hard commodities that are worth bearing in mind.
Firstly, droughts and floods can periodically rock supply but, in stark contrast to the long development times in the mining world, farmers can adjust their production on an annual basis. Not only can they switch between crops depending on expected price, but they make decisions about how much to spend on fertiliser, water and more productive (but more expensive) seed varieties each and every year.
So, whereas it might take five years to add capacity to an existing mine or 10 years to build a new one, the supply of soft commodities can be altered significantly within 12 months.
Another crucial difference is that the substitution effect is a lot greater for food than it is for hard commodities. You need iron ore to make steel and, for now at least, you need steel to make buildings. But when it comes to choosing a fillet of steak or some prime lamb cutlets, most of us can be swayed by price. When there’s a shortage of one particular type of food, people use alternatives.
Farmers are already making the necessary adjustments. Plantings have increased, Australia’s prospects are looking better, the price of wheat is at a 5-month low and rice is 10% off its highs. If the world has a relatively trouble-free year of production, there will be plenty of food to go around – which would be bad news for the farmers but good news for everyone else.

The majority of food consumed in Vancouver is either supply managed by marketing boards or made available through globally competitive market systems that respond to consumer demand. These business systems deliver products to market in a system that optimizes resource use, minimizes costs to consumers, and maximizes profits. As long as food is treated as a commodity, food systems will largely be characterized by activities of economic agents such as farmers, brokers, processors, importers, exporters, and retailers.
The diversity of the food economy and the strength of individual actors all along the supply chain are significant determinants of the resilience of Vancouver's food system. A sustainable food system is economically and socially viable for all those involved, including farmers, workers, and consumers.
Competitive trade relations that work within ecological constraints enhance food security. In the face of uncertain and imminent changes to global food production capacity, it is pertinent to strengthen local food production and bolster our ability to supply food locally and abroad. With climate change and pending fuel shortages, production and distribution of food in this changing world needs to minimize fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

The nursery is where seedlings are grown, managed and planted once they reach a plant-able size. Be sure to have a good planting plan, a good nursery will be necessary.
Main causes of death of farm seedlings Including wrong size or poor seedling health. The seedling’s poor health causes slower growth, inability to compete with its weeds or drought, more vulnerable to damage, and easier to be Invaded by insects and pests.
Tropical nurseries produce high-quality plants by providing a good environment and meeting plant needs. The nursery’s reproductive structure aims to alleviate the factors restricting the growth of plants in a given nursery site. The ideal type of nursery structure depends on site characteristics, nursery goals, crop size, type, crop rotation time, and the number of crops planted each year.
Growth media and container types are also important considerations in crop production. Growers often use different types of growth media for seed propagation, root cuttings and transplanting large plants. Many growers use organic and inorganic ingredients to mix themselves.
The best container can increase the root health of the seedlings, promote good morphology and shoot-to-root ratio, and lead to good transplanting performance. Depending on the type of leaves and root system, they will require different types of containers. For getting the best deals you can Visit here.
Agricultural production is considered a key / essential component of the national infrastructure, and we hope to continue to treat it as such a resource. The decision to make this determination is based on the memorandum of the US Department of Homeland Security, which you can view here.
The sixth page is specifically for agricultural production. In Governor Pritzker ’s Executive Order, the memorandum of the Department of Homeland Security specifically. The production of silver, which is regarded as a basic business guideline, has been required, so there is no doubt that nurseries and greenhouses should continue to operate by the recommended CDC guidelines.
A sufficient quantity of high-quality water must be provided throughout the year for all kinds of uses in nurseries. The design and application of irrigation systems must meet the needs of a variety of plants and meet their changing needs at different stages of their growth and development.
In addition to water, trees and plants also need a sufficient amount of mineral nutrients to achieve basic physiological processes and promote an appropriate balance of rapid growth and development. Nutrition and explant performance can also be improved by using beneficial microorganisms (such as nitrogen-fixing bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi) in the nursery room.
Providing optimal growth conditions for nurseries and maintaining good hygiene habits in nurseries are important tools for preventing diseases and pests. Good gardening habits can avoid or correct stress, which can cause many problems. Monitoring crops and keeping records can identify and deal with the problems that occur indeed as early as possible.
Important things to consider:
-Small plants are very tender and vulnerable to cold weather. When expected to freeze, the mound is covered.
-Luggage can provide additional protection. Cover the tree with a blanket. When severely frozen, add a string of lights or a small beam
-Heater under the cover. Mature trees are hardier and do not need this extra protection.
-Cold resistance depends on many factors. The location of the factory and wind protection are very important. Just plant a tree
-Protection from cold wind is much more dangerous than the cold wind itself. Growing avocados in the warmest parts of the United States
-The residential landscape is usually the south or southeast side of the house.
-Healthy, well-cared for plants are hardier.
-Very important: Humidity plays an important role. Usually, plants are grown in dry, low humidity winter
Cold resistance is stronger than plants grown in wet areas in winter. For example, a factory can withstand a temperature of 15 ° F in dry Texas climate, but may be able to withstand temperatures of 15-20 ° F in the humid east coast climate. Avocados require very little water when it is cold. It is very sensitive to watering.
There is nothing much faster than killing plants in the cold season. Drainage is the most important factor to consider when planting avocado trees. In areas with poor drainage, create a mound and plant trees on the mound.The hardy avocado is made in Mexico. They are self-propagating. High oil content, up to 30%. The leaves of some varieties have a pronounced fennel flavor.
To adapt the seedlings more appropriately to withstand the pressure after transplanting, various nursery treatment methods have been tried or developed and applied to seedlings. Roots are trimmed, wrung out, and fertilized with 375 kg/ha potash fertilizer. By lowering the height, the diameter of the root ring, the ratio of young shoots to roots, and the size of the shoots, pruning the roots in the nursery and wringing the improved rootstock did not improve survival or growth after planting.
Fertilization reduced the root growth of black spruce, but not the root growth of white spruce. Nurseries can provide plants for gardens, agriculture, forestry, and conservation biology. Some of them specialize in one stage of the process: reproduction, growth, or retail; or in one type of plant: for example ground cover plants, shade plants, or rock garden plants.
Some people produce bulk populations of specific varieties for specific purposes, whether they are seedlings or grafts, such as fruit trees in orchards or wood trees in forestry. Some products are produced on a seasonal basis and spring is ready to be exported to colder areas where breeding cannot begin earlier, or areas where seasonal pests hinder profitable growth early in the season.
Nurseries grow plants in open spaces, container yards, tunnels or greenhouses. In the open fields, nurseries plant ornamental trees, shrubs, and perennial herbs. In a container yard, the nursery is planted with small trees, shrubs, and herbs, which are usually scheduled to be sold in garden centers.
Nurseries have proper ventilation, sunlight, etc. Plants can be grown from seeds. The most common method is to cut plants/plant cuttings. These can be obtained from the tip of the root. With these methods, plants can be cloned in nurseries and gardens.

Just back from my hols (Iceland - fantastic place) to find a bumper crop of plums, tomatoes and beetroot, not to mention cauliflowers, courgettes, potatoes....
I'm really pleased with my plum tree - it's about 3-4 years old and last year gave me 4 delicious czar plums. This year, well, the photo hopefully shows that my toddler tree has produced so far a whopping 1.5kg of ripe plums with more on the way.
I also have a dozen beetroot, a bowl of cherry toms as well as golden sunrise yellow toms, some marmande as well as others that I can't remember the name of.
I was delighted with the cauliflowers - I've grown them under enviromesh (a fine mesh-net thing) after a couple of years of inedible catepilliary cauliflowers I've finally won - this year have had 4 cauliflowers so far with no wiggley things inside.
I think I've done well in just under 3 weeks. Many thanks go to my allotment neighbour Shirley and my brother Jamie for watering my greenhouse whilst I was away.
Unfortunately I've come back to a plot that is not only full of produce but overrun with bindweed. I've pulled up a sack of it already and there is still more to go.
Now to find plum and beetroot recipes.

Dragon Heart Farm Family
The Dragon Heart Farm family passionately supports respect for the well being of our soil and community.
Bennett Dorrance, Owner
Bennett Dorrance, Jr., moved to Hawai‘i in search of a different way to be on Earth, to be a practicing heartist. What he found was the combined teachings of our fundamental right and need to be connected in service to Earth (Malama ‘Aina), and the possibility of collective healing and awakening supported through Aloha-based culture.
These passions are rooted in the operation of Dragon Heart Farm where regenerative practices fuel both how the land is farmed as well as what is farmed. It is also why the farm is committed to creating partnerships and programs that help perpetuate ‘‘aina and aloha based practices.”
Bennett is a BS graduate of Princeton University, started his contemplative path in 1994, with the help of Naropa University, and earned an Executive Masters in Sustainability Leadership from Arizona State University, in 2010.
Brooks Thomas, Vermi Meister
Like many entrepreneurs, Brooks Thomas discovered his passion for vermiculture through trying to solve a problem. In this case this was his awareness in the mid 1980’s in Del Mar, California of the contrast between the outward appearances of “cleanliness” and manicured lawns vs. the reality of suburban wastefulness as exemplified by everyone’s food waste in trash cans out on the curb contributing to 50% of landfill space. He began his backyard experiments in raising compost worms (with spectacular results) and then continued after he moved to Hawaii in 1988.
Around the year 2000, Brooks got a significant boost from studying with Korean Natural Farming founder and expert, Master Cho. Not only did he deepen his understanding of the beneficial aspects of even a few worms and their castings, but discovered that, by way of earth passing through the worm’s gut (“the miracle inch”), the output is pathogen free. The potential is wholesale rejuvenation of terrestrial life from the ground up through these probiotic factories!
Brooks has been furthering the strength and abilities of his amendments up to this day which has led to including the nano-porosity of inoculated bio-char as well as fermentation to unlock the properties of amino acids, all of which our plants can benefit greatly from. For Brooks, “The ethos underlying everything is to source locally and to re-purpose materials that would otherwise end up in the landfill. Whether its fish heads into plant food, table scraps into topsoil, mac nut shells into biochar, or used up coco coir into potting soil, everything is sourced on this island and lovingly alchemized into the soil that sustains us all.”

10 May SNAIL FARMING
(Heliciculture/Heliculture) Snail Farming as it is commonly known; is the process of raising land snails specifically for human use, either to use their flesh as edible escargot, or more recently, to obtain snail slime for use in cosmetics, or snail eggs for human consumption as a type of caviar - Wikipedia.
Imagine a plate filled with snail and garnished with different food accessories! Wow.... Very sumptuous! Why then do we shy away from snail production.
Snail farming is one of the most lucrative and profitable agribusiness one can start with low capital. Though it is a neglected animal rearing business in Nigeria due to the old culture of going to the bush to pick snails in the villages during raining time, snail farming provides one of the finest opportunity to make money within a short period of time.

any ideas for names, please send us an email. There is a very interesting story behind the lay out and how 900 plants became 1600. Kinton is a silty loam of marine sedimentary origin. Our Second site is located north of Gaston on Old highway. We planted 1,452 plants per acre (6 feet between rows and 4 feet between plants). A small block of 1018 on 3309 root stock was planted along with a block of self rooted Pommard. Many in the valley know the site as "Bloomer's Dairy" while older residents remember it as the "Haberman Dairy." The property as been a dairy farm since the early 1900's. . Effective rooting depth is more than 60 inches. We'll always remember the rain and mud of 2004 and dragging a chain to each tree stump, all 151 of them, while the tractor driver sat in an enclosed, dry cab. Part of the land had a small number of Christmas trees planted as a FFA project that had gone bad.
We strongly believe that superior wines will only result from vineyards that are consistently managed to low yields, which in Oregon looks to be at around 2.5 tons/acre. . Friday 11- 7 pm, saturday 11 - 6 pm, sunday noon to 6 pm (Closed: Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Break 12/24, 12/25, New Years Day, Super Bowl Sunday, Easter Sunday) "More fun than fits in a bottle". The upper part of the subsoil is dark yellowish-brown silty clay loam a Movie Review on David Lynchs Blue Velvet about 36 inches thick, and the lower part is brown silty clay about 36 inches thick. . Currently we grow and/or have available for tasting Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Rose, Riesling, Müller-Thurgau, and. We purchased this site in September of 2007 and started the conversion from an abandoned dairy farm into vineyards, winery, and a tasting room. You need a lot of friends (Scott, Al, Bob, Henry, Joyce, Tom, Kathy, Joyce (Demo Diva Jerry, Larry, Judy, Toby, Chuck, Kelly, Allison, Randy, Henry, Joyce, Mike, Russell, and Keith) to help you plant and you also need great wine makers and mentors, enter Keith. These practices such as high density planting, shoot thinning, cluster removal, avoidance of the use of harsh pesticides and herbicides, increase cultivation costs and reduce the amount of fruit that can be harvested. Melbourne soils are well drained and they have a surface layer of dark-brown silty clay loam. It has a PH.1 -6.0. Our spacing at the Gaston site is 8 foot isles and 5 feet between plants which should reduce the amount to tractor blight on the poles and plants. We have also planted Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, and Riesling. .
The vineyard site starts about a quarter of the way up the hill, normally above the fog line, at an elevation of approximately 400 feet facing due east, topping out at approximately 500 feet with exposures bending from the southeast through the southwest. For sophisticated wine lovers, however, such a tradeoff will be well worth the effort. Another plus is the close proximity to our house (its right next door).

The Eastern Redbud
Scientific Name: Cercis Canadensis
The Eastern Redbud tree is native to Indiana and the flower buds are edible!
Information compiled by Katie J. Savage
- Native to Indiana and other parts of the U.S
- Belongs to the Legume family
- 15-30 feet tall
- Flowers and buds are edible!
- High in Vitamin C
- Deciduous foliage
- Blooms pink in March, April and May
- Redbud twigs can be used as a yellow dye
- Attracts birds!

Interested in growing your own redbud trees?
According to Wildflower.org, taking cuttings from this tree is “nearly impossible”, so they suggest looking for seedlings growing around mature redbud trees. These are easily removed and transplanted to your property.
You can also grow them from seed.
Although this is said to be hard to do with redbuds because of the dormancy period of the seeds, it is possible.

The "Other" Bees - A Beekeeping Alternative
On March 1, 2018, we put up our first mason bee “Hotel” as part of a University of Virginia project. Our box is one of about 100 installed across Virginia to gather field data about the status of native blue orchard bees (Osima lignaria) and possible competition with non-native bees. The “hotel” will be left untouched until the end of May and then returned to the researchers for analysis. From March through May, we’ll make observations and take pictures and videos to document Mason bee activity. As a Virginia Master Naturalist, I’m very aware of the importance of native pollinators and the possible decline of pollinator species. This opportunity to observe native bees, started me thinking about how to become a “Native Beekeeper”.
When we think of beekeeping, we think about honeybees. Honeybees are important pollinators and a growing industry exists around providing honeybees for agricultural pollination. It’s also a rapidly growing hobby that benefits the environment and rewards us with a harvest of delicious local honey. But we tend to forget that honeybees are not native. Maintaining healthy hives requires some effort and expense. And honeybees sting – painful for everyone and dangerous for those allergic to their venom. If you want to add pollinators to your garden but don’t want to keep honeybees (and don’t mind not getting any honey), consider keeping mason bees.
Mason bees are solitary. There is no hive with tens of thousands of bees and they don’t make beeswax or honey. From March through May, each female lays her eggs in nest tubes (usually holes in trees or walls) that she has provisioned with nectar and pollen. The eggs hatch in two days and the nectar and pollen is consumed in about 10 days. The larva spins a cocoon and pupates. By fall, they look like adults but stay in the cocoon until it’s time to emerge in spring. The name “mason bee” comes from the way the female uses mud to construct walls between each larva and seal off the end of the tube.
Mason bees are gentle enough to be handled and only sting if trapped or squeezed. They are more efficient pollinators than honeybees. A single mason bee’s erratic flight can touch 20,000 flowers in a day – enough pollination for 12 lbs. of cherries – a task that would take 60 honeybees meticulously moving from flower to adjacent flower! This also has the benefit of increasing cross pollination. Mason bees gather dry pollen on hairs on their abdomen where much of it falls off to pollinate the next flower. Honeybees hold it securely on their sticky legs – better for getting it to the hive but not as efficient for pollination. Best of all, while honeybees might forage miles from the hive – often bypassing blossoms in their path – mason bees stay within a few hundred feet of where they were hatched, keeping them in your garden!
Mason bee hotels are commercially available in a wide variety of styles from rustic to magnificent. Or you can easily make your own. They should be mounted between 3 and 6 feet high on a post, fence, or side of a building (not a tree), facing morning sun if possible and not right next to bird feeders. If you build it, they will come. The cocoons can be left outdoors in the hotel to complete their life cycle. But to improve your chances of success, select a hotel that can be taken apart, so you can harvest the cocoons and bring them inside in June. Harvested cocoons must be put into a refrigerator in November and left there until it’s time to put them back out as the weather warms in spring.
We thoroughly enjoy keeping honeybees and now we’re going to add mason bees. They coexist peacefully and should help us to have an even more beautiful spring flowers in our meadow.

Abundant white peach, apricot compôte and white floral notes leap from the glass, with juicy ripe fruit on the palate and beautifully clean, precise acidity through to the finish. A versatile and immensely appealing Riesling, which pairs well with pasta, roast chicken, seabass or fresh asparagus.
Sustainably certified by agroVet, the wineyard also produce their own fertiliser. They produce their own seeds to sew cover crops in the vineyards and use straw from the fields in the young vineyards to protect the vines from dry stress. The winery is energy neutral, producing energy from their Biogas plant and a Photovoltaic system which produces more energy than is required.

Root Health = Gut Health
“Bacterial inoculation of plants is like dietary probiotics in that both introduce live microbes that benefit the host. Laboratory studies and field trials have shown that inoculating the root microbiome with the right bacteria can promote growth, enhance nutrient uptake, help control pathogens, and induce increased root surface area and shoot length.”
David R. Montgomery and Anne Bikle – “The Hidden Half of Nature: The Microbial Roots of Life and Health”
It might be called “gut health” in humans but you might call it “root health” in plants. Sound familiar? Humans and plants both rely on beneficial bacteria to make nutrients and compounds for survival. Think about the “rhizosphere” - that area of the soil where the roots of plants reside. Plant roots have an intimate relationship with microbial organisms just like humans. Could current intensive agriculture become more sustainable by continuing research in the role of beneficial bacteria and the life of plants?
There is the potential to at least reduce pesticides and fertiliser use and look at the microbial relationships between soil microbes and plant roots.

Once upon a time, an alien ship crash landed on a tiny island in the Mediterranean sea. For all you know, it might have been Corsica or Ibiza. The two aliens on that ship that survived, incidentally one male and one female, were the only ones on the entire island. They roamed around and explored the island until they were very hungry.
Having looked all around the island, they hadn't found anything that appeared familiar to them when compared to the foods that they had access to back on their planet. When they sat down to think what they could eat for food, they happened to be among a bunch of carrot plants. They noticed little orange things in the ground that had green stems and leaves growing out of it. Wondering why the base was orange, they pulled one out. And they had a carrot in their hands. Immediately, it began to rain. So they ran out of there to find some shelter. Once they did, they looked at the orange thing in their hands. The rain had washed all the mud off of it. And like humans, they were drawn to the colour orange as well.
Given how hungry they were, they decided to bite into the orange thing. When they did, it turned out to be tasty and they were no longer hungry. So they learnt to eat carrots whenever they were hungry.
Then they procreated and proliferated the tiny Mediterranean island with more aliens of their kind. They reached a point when the carrots that naturally grew could no longer feed them. The carrots that naturally grew were just a small percentage of all the edible things that grew on the island. They could very well have eaten apples, or potatoes, or corn, or oranges, or bananas, or tomatoes, or cucumbers, well you get the point. They could have eaten pretty much anything else. But the original two aliens that survived had been dead by now and all their descendants had grown up believing that carrots were the only edible things.
So they put their wits together and learnt farming. The lands where all the other tasty things that grew naturally were slowly taken over to grow more and more carrots. And the aliens reproduced some more. Now, all the carrots from the farms weren't enough to feed the entire population of the island.
The smarter ones began to learn how to grow more carrots per acre of land and in a few years, could grow hundred times more carrots on the same area of land as compared to others. So they started selling the carrots they grew to the others and got them to do their bidding for them.
A few generations later, all those who were buying carrots from the super productive farmers forgot how to grow their own carrots and depended on the owners of the farms to create jobs for them so that they could provide something in return for the carrots that they needed.
A rogue alien or two, here and there, began to rebel and began to live on potatoes, and corn and the more adventurous ones even began to catch and eat fish.
But many were still not brave enough to eat these unsafe foods. What if they fell sick? What if they didn't live as long as the others that ate carrots? What if they couldn't run as fast as the others? No, it was the safe thing to do to eat carrots and nothing else. It didn't matter if it killed them to earn those carrots (well, not literally killed them, of course!), they would do it nonetheless. Because it was scary to not do what everybody wasn't doing and go eat potatoes or fish.
And thus grew their love for carrots.
We are a little like these aliens, aren't we? Only our carrots are getting a college degree, getting a job, a wife, a kid, a house a car, climbing up the corporate ladder.
As Douglas Adams said, so long and thanks for all the fish. I mean, carrots.

Corporate bosses Werner Baumann of Bayer and Hugh Grant of Monsanto have a vision. They want to be innovation drivers for agriculture, feed the world’s population and achieve enormous growth.
In this vision, diverse, living Earth is reduced to industrial space, where genetically manipulated plants, chemical fertilizers and so-called crop protection products maximize profitable biomass. All plants and organisms perish except genetically manipulated agricultural crops. Farmers become de facto dependent workers whose function is to supervise the spreading of substances delivered by the chemical industry and the harvesting of biomass produced via fully automatic, digitally controlled heavy machinery.
The long-term consequences are infertile soil and contaminated groundwater. It means massive destruction of nature’s value for the sake of the capital value of just a few companies. It can also be expected to destroy diverse rural cultures and vibrant cultural landscapes worldwide.
We owe our life to the health of nature and the environment, as well as healthy food. But the vision of an agro-industrial sector of this kind is not to produce healthy food.
We owe our life to the health of nature and the environment, as well as healthy food. But the vision of an agro-industrial sector of this kind is not to produce healthy food. Only naturally integrated agriculture can achieve this. It also strengthens biodiversity and soil fertility. The global trend toward organic food is the expression of the longing for healthy nourishment. And it can feed the growing world population, as borne out by numerous studies, including by the University of Berkley and the World Bank’s Agriculture at a Crossroads report.
A majority of the population in Europe, where the new company will be based, rejects the agro-industrial vision out of hand. Monsanto’s ongoing revenue problems raise considerable doubts over whether it has recognized the needs of future customers. Bayer intends to finance the purchase mainly with loans and bond issues. This would considerably worsen its equity capital ratio and leave the company less financial leeway for innovation.
Last but not least, Bayer-Monsanto is neglecting to take future agricultural reform into account. The fate now suffered by the major energy concerns could also affect a merged Bayer-Monsanto concern. The biggest takeover a German company has ever aspired to could become the biggest destruction of capital a German company has ever been responsible for.

Over this long weekend, I have spent a good deal of my time in the garden. I have been planting and transplanting. When we purchased our property four years ago, it was woefully neglected. Over 13 trees had to be removed just to shed some light. Clearing the back of the property meant clearing lots of red rope, also known as poison ivy. Yeah, lesson learned the hard way.
It has only been in the last decade or so that I even took an interest in gardening and landscaping. I now know enough to be dangerous when it comes to plants. Recently I’ve become an expert on plants that deer and rabbits won’t eat. We live in a pretty rural area, backing up to farmland owned by the same family since the 1750s.
My house was built in the 1850s and it too is getting a slow but purposeful makeover. I have always gravitated to older homes. I can feel the history. I can see the craftsmanship. Timbers pulled and hand carved to frame the house. Even my land feels old. What is now a sweep of grass backing up to the old farmland, was once tilled for growing the family’s vegetables. The people who once lived here were not farmers, but they did grow their own food. In an old photo of the property from the 1890s, the old barn is visible. It burned down in a fire at the turn of the century, which led to the town deciding they needed a firehouse. The bucket brigade couldn’t save it.
When I’m touching the soil, and taking the large old stones from the property to create a raised bed, I think about those who have come before me here. There is magic in the soil. It makes me wonder about the days of old. Back then, people relied on their land and the local farming industry to provide them sustenance. They did not get their vegetables from Chili. They did not buy their meat pre-packaged. They were much closer and much more intimate with the source of their food. Old homes and this old land remind me that not everything needs improvement. Sometimes the old ways are better.
I now think a lot about where my food comes from. I’ve seen the documentaries about the meat industry and about how sugar and additives are creating tons of health issues around the globe. The big food industry produces greenhouse gases that rival car exhaust. I’ve personally experienced what processed foods and added sugar have done to my waistline and my immune system. Frankly, sometimes all that information is incredibly overwhelming. Feeding a family good whole food has become more of a challenge as the prices for non-subsidized produce skyrocket while a can of Pepsi gets cheaper. The middle aisles of the grocery store offer lots of calories for low cost and those with limited resources often feel they have no choice. And yet, the cost to treat the rising health issues is becoming insurmountable.
It’s hard to filter all of the information out there. This food is bad, that food is bad. This program works, this one is a fad. I felt very overwhelmed by it all when I woke up and began to take action. And now, I get emails from subscribers and posts from my A-Team that suggest I’m not the only one feeling overwhelmed about the best road to weight loss and healing. Some say go vegan, others say Paleo is the way, some swear by vegetarianism. So with all of the research, the quick fix promises and the endless bits of information I had to make it simple.
When I came up with the plan, I wanted it to have the flexibility for the vegan, the vegetarian and the omnivore. There is lots of conflicting information and opinions out there. Keeping it simple and staying in the lines is the best way to go for me. I can’t have grey areas or it gets muddy and confusing. I eat animal protein, but much less of it and mostly organic. I do my best to buy locally grown produce from farms that actually do MORE than the USDA standard for organic. I eat out less, and aim to make my own food more often.
Making time to make a meal is now a luxury for most of us. We are tethered to many hours at work, kids to care for, and lots of other chores to do just to maintain our life and our home. But I’ve started drawing more lines around that. I need time to decompress, to hang in my garden, to cook more meals, and to learn new ways of eating that not only sustain me, but sustain the planet. Do my choices make a difference? They do. And so do yours.
When you stop buying processed foods, you send a message to the food industry. When you support local farmers and hit the farmers’ market (even NYC has them!), you are voting with your dollars. And that’s where the revolution starts. When you buy organic and non-GMO foods, you are making a difference. Yes you. When you cook a meal, or teach your kids how to cook, you are training them to be self-sufficient and teaching them about the importance of eating the food that remembers where it came from. It matters.
I hope someday to make the time to create my own vegetable garden; right now it’s tough with working full time. When I do, it will need a high fence and have to go two feet below grade, because, hello groundhogs, rabbits and deer! But I do what I can, and I keep it simple. I’m learning new ways to cook, and I enjoy the simplicity of it. I don’t need to be tilling the soil to make these changes. One trip to the local farm or the locally grown organic produce section is all I need. Avoiding the middle aisles has transformed my body and mind. It’s the small changes made in the moment that transform. And it’s voting with your dollars that will fuel the revolution. Getting back to basics and sending the message that good whole food heals is already making a difference. One trip to the grocery store at a time, eating food that remembers where it came from–you can make a difference. Join the revolution!

The town of Sebastopol in Sonoma County is known for Gravensteins, the pretty yellow-green apples with red stripes. Even though many of the century-old apple orchards were uprooted in the last 25 years and replanted with vineyards you still come across plenty of old, gnarled Gravenstein trees when you're driving around the quiet roads here. Besides apples and grapes a bounty of other fruit is grown around Sebastopol. It was, after all, the place where Luther Burbank operated his experimental farm and developed more than 800 new varieties of fruits and vegetables. So, it's not surprising that Sebastopol became one of the leading producers of mushrooms a few years back when shitake, oyster, chanterelles and other exotic varieties started to pop up in supermarkets alongside the old standby white button mushrooms. Sebastopol-based Gourmet Mushrooms produces more specialty organic mushrooms than any other company in the U.S. One of its most popular mushrooms is the delicate, earthy Velvet Pioppini, which has dark caps and an intense forest flavor. (Look for the Mycopia brand at Whole Foods and other fine markets). Gourmet is not open to the public but, just south of Sebastopol there's a small mushroom operation -- New Carpati Farm -- where you can visit, talk to the mushroom grower and pick your own funghi. Steve Schwartz, the owner (photo above), named the company for the Carpathian Mountains in Eastern Europe where his father was born. His company is a simple operation consisting of a small cave-like hut. Inside, shelves are lined with bricks made of oak saw dust, where he plants fungus spores. A wild assortment of fungi emerge, mostly varieties of shitake and oyster. Schwartz sells them at the Sebastopol farmer's market on Sundays but you can also call him (707-829-2978) and set up an appointment to visit the little hut. There, in the damp and quiet, you do as chefs sometimes do and pick your own mushrooms, the freshest you've tasted.
Up on Skyline Boulevard above Palo Alto, hidden inside the MidPeninsula Open Space District, is a little-known orchard full of old chestnut trees. No one really knows their origin, but the most reliable story seems to be that the trees were planted by a Spaniard about 100 years ago, says Hans Josens, who with his wife, Donna, runs the orchard under an agreement with the district. The grove consists of about 120 trees, including what Johsens calls the "honey tree" where the largest of the green, golf-ball-sized nuts grows. For only a few weeks in the fall, the orchard is open to the public as a u-pick operation. For certain ethnic groups, particularly Koreans, French and Italians, gathering chestnuts off the ground in the chill of the fall is a nostalgic event that usually culminates later in the evening with roasting the nuts over a fire. For those new to the whole process, the ranch provides gloves, buckets and tongs. For sale are roasting pans and special knives to pry open the pods. The orchard will be open Oct. 11-Nov. 23 this year. The price is $5.25 per pound. Call (408) 395-0337 (no Web site at press time). The only other chestnut orchard that I could find in the region is in western Sonoma County -- at Green Valley Chestnut Ranch, which is only open two weekends this fall. The first was this weekend and the second will be Oct. 11-12. The ranch, outside the town of Graton, covers several acres containing about 800 chestnut trees that grew from seeds from a Gold Rush-era tree planted by Italian immigrants in Nevada City. The variety is called Colossal, a type that produces large and sweet nuts. A friend and I on a foodie jaunt of the area passed by Green Valley (a lovely drive from Graton) the other day and, although the ranch was closed, I took some photos (including the one above) of the lush, gorgeous groves of trees, sagging with the weight of the pods, the ground covered with the nuts ready for the taking. For more information, check out the ranch's Web site. Before heading out to see the chestnut trees, we had a terrific lunch at a new restaurant, Eloise, in Sebastopol (reviewed recently in the San Francisco Chronicle), and, after seeing the ranch, stopped by another eatery that specializes in local ingredients, the lively pub, Ace-in-the-Hole, in Graton. Ace makes the first hard cider produced in the U.S. , much of it from local apples, including the beloved Gravenstein. The results are delicious.

In modern agriculture, silage bales are the most common way of producing silage as feedstock for the winter. Silage is the result of the fermentation of organic materials for animal feed. Plants like grass or maize are cut and baled with plastic film to exclude oxygen. This process creates the perfect conditions for naturally occuring bacteria to ferment and preserve it. The silage can then be stored and fed to livestock in winter.
The bales can easily be spoiled, however, if the plastic cover is damaged. This can occur during transport or during storage outside by birds and rodents which cause holes in the wrapping. To repair this damage and save the animal feed before it is unusable, we have developed a new product, tesa® 4648 repairing tape for silage films.
When developing tesa® 4648 repairing tape for silage films, we paid special attention to three things: The tape can be torn by hand, it is UV and water resistant, and it has great tack even in cold weather.
tesa® 4648 repairing tape for silage films is also extra wide to reliably cover larger tears. It is made from PE film, the same material that is commonly used for silage films, and halogen free (according to IEC 61249-2-21). tesa® 4648 repairing tape for silage films is a black tape with a natural rubber adhesive. Due to its thickness of 120 µm, and can resist the stresses typical of agricultural processes.
After the silage is consumed the film is gathered to be scrapped. However, the recycling of agricultural film is trending. Within the recycling process for agricultural PE-films impurities, such as PVC, needs to be sorted out. tesa® 4648 has been tested in industrial recycling processes with a good result: typical quantities for the repairing of damaged silage films can be recycled.
With all its features and benefits of tesa® 4648, our customers can rely on this ideal solution for the repair of damaged silage films.
If you are interested in our new tesa® 4648 repairing tape for silage films, please get in touch with us by filling out the form at the bottom of the page: just click the GET IN TOUCH link.

Feeding and Watering Open Close
Containerised topiary plants rely on you for all their feed and watering requirements. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer such as Vitax Q4 once a month from Apr†-Jul. Discolouration of foliage is usually due to lack of feeding.
Pruning: As a minimum,†prune†topiary during early June then again in October to shape it up†ready for†winter. Alternatively, trim little and often throughout the growing season. Use secateurs to avoid leaving cut leaves. Prune Viburnum tinus after flowering if necessary but bear in mind that the flowers will go on to produce very attractive berries for the autumn-winter.†
Don't rely on rainfall to water containerised topiary; the foliage is so dense that little if any rain would reach the soil. Luckily however, holly is a very tough plants. Water container grown plants throughout the growing season (Apr-Sept). The frequency very much depends on the sun/shade situation of the plants and the weather conditions. Waterlogging can also be a problem if the container does not drain between waterings.
Pests and Diseases Open Close
Discolouration of foliage is usually due to feed and/or watering requirements - see above. On holly, low numbers of yellow leaves is part of the natural shedding process; these can just be picked off if too unsightly. However, if an excessive amount of yellow leaves appear this can be a symptom of waterlogging - check the compost.
Situation Open Close
†Holly (Ilex) and Viburnum tinus topiary is very adaptable; being happy in full sun, part shade or full shade. Watering just needs to be adjusted accordingly.†Holly and Viburnum tinus suit all soil types apart from waterlogged! In a container, a soil based compost such as John Innes No.3 with added organic matter and coarse grit to aid stability and drainage would be ideal.

Learn more about what makes GoGro the best solution to your automatic watering needs, and how to get the most out of your new system.
The sleek and versatile GoGro system is truly innovative, every detail has been carefully designed to ensure a minimum level of upkeep and boasts many USPs including;
The valve is constructed from ABS to allow precision manufacture,
while the rest of the system is made from high quality, durable
Polypropylene – both are made right here in Britain!
It’s simple, firstly, you can use your existing pots (most standard 15L and 25L pots will fit within the system)! Simply place your existing pots in GoGro trays, lay down the required pipe work and attach to your reservoir. If you don’t have a compatible pot, you can easily transplant your existing crops into a new GoGro round pot.
No, our valve has been specially designed so it automatically controls water flow and level within the tray without the need for electricity. All you need to do is ensure your reservoir is elevated above the supply line and GoGro will do the rest!
The first generation valve has a 2mm inlet, a second generation is already in production boasting a 2.7mm valve inlet without compromising the valve inlet strength.
The tray floods to a maximum depth of approx. 3cm and then drains to a depth of approx. 1cm; we believe the additional depth/volume in the tray allows for a buffer capacity of nutrient as well as better circulation of nutrient beneath the pot.
We recommend only transplanting crops into the GoGro system when the capillary action of the crop is sufficient to provide adequate nutrient exchange in the tray. We recommend ROOT!T’s range of innovative propagation solutions to give your plants to best start in life.
Every plant is different and there is no definitive stage at which you should transplant into the GoGro system; however, we recommend the best time to do so is when you notice your crop becoming thirstier, and when you find yourself needing need to water the crop more frequently.
We expect a medium sized plant to consume 1.5-2L of water/nutrient per day under normal indoor conditions. This allows for a minimum of two nutrient exchanges into each module per day.
1-1.5L per 15L module and 1.5-2L per 25L module.
Each module comes with a copper impregnated root control disc, which should be placed at the base of the tray underneath the Clay Pebbles. For fast growing crops, it is inevitable that some roots will get past the control disc and start to grow into the tray, a swift quarter turn of the pot fortnightly (or more frequently if needed) is all that is required to disrupt this root development and prevent blockages.

Every morning, I stand at the front window of our house, looking out over the gentle slope of an Iowa farmfield rolling down toward the road. Our crops are vibrant and green, and they wave a morning greeting in the breeze. There’s always something so hopeful about that.
But then, as I scan this field, I see the sad sight that greets me morning after morning: a bald spot in the middle of the field, where crops should have been planted but weren’t. It looks like a giant scar, or a wound, a reminder that, for a season, all was not well.
My husband, Scott, is a crop farmer. And like farmers across the heartland, he was unable to plant some of his corn and soybeans due to unrelenting rains that kept him out of the field. Three months later, in the middle of a field, there remains this ugly, bare spot, where nothing was allowed to grow, because we couldn’t plant the seeds.
All spring, we read news reports like this one on our iPhone news apps: “U.S. corn planting this spring has crawled at its slowest pace in 40 years. It now may be at a standstill.” We saw the headlines come to life in our own community and on our own farm.
It felt like a sort of vandalism, like Mother Nature worked tirelessly to destroy the perennial hope of the farmer. And if we dug down deep into the whole matter of things, it felt like God had turned His back on the farmer while the vandal roamed unchecked.
I suppose some farmers lifted their hands to the sky, saying “Thy will be done” to a sovereign and holy God. Others felt cheated, wronged, and wholly frustrated.
All of us were in the middle of a hard but important lesson: farming is an act of faith. Like my husband says, “I didn’t learn surrender in a church. I learned it in a field.”
You may not be a farmer, but I’ll bet you know what it feels like to look out on what God has given you and see a wound in the fields you’ve been called to plant. You’ve probably heard a sermon or seen a social media graphic that reminded you it’s your job to plant the seeds, and it’s God’s job to make them grow. Quite often, that is a pretty fitting metaphor — that is, if you can actually plant those seeds.
But what about the fields you can’t even get to? What do you do when you’ve been called to steward that which God has given to you, but you find yourself on the edge of your field with fistfuls of seeds that will never make their way into the ground?
Perhaps, for you, the inaccessible field looks like the heart of a wayward child who won’t even text you anymore. Perhaps it’s an unfulfilled dream on which someone closed a door. Perhaps you’ve tried to plant seeds in a flailing ministry or a fractured marriage, but you can’t reach the field. Lord, why can’t I get to the field?
What then? What do we do when the cynicism creeps up, like weeds on a bald spot of a field?
This is what we do: We stand at the window, and we dwell in hope. That’s what the people of God do — we hope.
It takes great courage, but we wake up each day with hope. We accept that disappointments happen, but we don’t lose hope.
A single bit of hope is a very powerful thing. It compels you to look out on your fields, believing that in another season, another time, the fields will open up for you once more.
In time — if the seeds that God has placed in your hands were intended for those fields rolled out before you — they will open. I promise you, they will.
Until then, cast your seeds where you can. Wait for the time to enter the fallow fields. But never lose the hope given to you, in the name of the One who gave you the seeds in the first place.
I believe it as sure as I’m standing at the window today, looking out on a field in the heartland, knowing that in due season, we will plant again.
As for me, I will always have hope.
Psalm 71:14 (NIV)
We dwell in hope. That’s what the people of God do — we hope. -@dukeslee: Click To Tweet Leave a Comment

Strategies to control and combat Salmonella on the farm
Breeding unit. Transmission of sow to piglet is not relevant in most herds.
It is not the primary target.
Weaning-growing. Control at early life can cut the infection cycle,
but there is the potential of reinfection later on.
Finishing. The objective of control in this stage is to deliver Salmonella-free pigs to the abattoir.
Size of the grain
Control strategies can be applied at different stages. Hygiene and biosecurity measures are of paramount
importance in all stages, while control strategies in feed or vaccination can be applied to reduce on-farm
levels. Antibiotherapy is not recommended, as it is not effective against multi-resistant Salmonella strains.
formic, butyric or a mix of acids at a concentration between 0.3 percent and 2 percent for prolonged periods
(between 6 and 12 weeks) could decrease the percentage
of pigs shedding Salmonella in feces.

of organic acids is not serotype-dependent.

revealed interesting data. Using these products at the recommended rates, FCE was improved in pigs with the acid diet
compared to the control diet, together with a better cost of
feed per Kg of live weight gain (EUR0.89 in the control feed

Salmonella-infected and Salmonella-free animals, respec-
Organic acids are one of the strategies offered to control
and reduce Salmonella levels on the farm. The right dose and
treatment duration are essential for success, but acids need
other on-farm interventions related to hygiene, biosecurity and

Lindley Mills is known for their proprietary blend of Super Sprout, a unique process for sprouting and milling whole grains. Sprouting enhances the nutrition and digestibility of wheat. The body sees sprouted wheat more as a vegetable than as a grain and allows for higher water absorption and enhanced nutrition.
From Joe Lindley, president of Lindley Mills: “Super Sprout sprouted wheat flour is revolutionary because is it the ‘live’ viable wheat seed, stabilized and milled into a bakeable, flavorful, nutritionally enhanced whole grain. In my opinion, one of the next branches in the evolution of that as a food source is to utilize the more complete nutritional potential of wheat by letting it fulfill its true destiny and sprout.”
Lindley Mills was established in 1755 on Cane Creek in Graham, North Carolina. The mill was the site of the Battle of Lindley’s Mill during the Revolutionary War. The Lindley family owned the mill for 100 years. Two hundred and 10 years after its inception, the Lindley family restored the mill and began to produce flour again. For the past 36 years, the mill has been grinding organically grown grain and is operated by ninth-generation Lindleys.

Focus on Feedlots
Focus on Feedlots was created in 1990 at Kansas State University to provide basic feedlot performance data for steers and heifers, and feed ingredient prices. Each month, closeout data from various Kansas feedlots are summarized to provide average values for days on feed, average daily gain, harvest weight, dry matter feed conversion, cost of gain, and death loss, as well as corn and alfalfa hay prices.
The Monthly Reports are available as Adobe PDF files. An Excel spreadsheet of the data is available upon request. Links to individual tables of each year's data (Yearly Data tables), charts for the four most recent years (Yearly Charts), and charts for three-year averages since 1990 (Three-year Average Charts) are located on this web page.
Appreciation is expressed to Brookover Ranch Feed Yard, Decatur County Beef, DM&M Feedyard, Fairleigh Feed Yard, HRC Feed Yards Inc., Hy-Plains Feedyard, Kearny County Feeders, Poky Feeders Inc., and Supreme Cattle Feeders for their support for Focus on Feedlots.

I’ll tend Covenant’s expanding herb garden a couple of times this week – everything is growing well, and you might want to stop by to see it. I planted one of my favs – Nasturtiums: a peppery tasting leaf and a beautiful/edible flower for garnish. It’s takes about ten days for the Nasturtiums to appear – as of today, it’s been six days since planting … will they come up? Will all of them take root?
Seeds are an amazing thing – that little piece of hard-shelled life sends down a root (how does it know to do that?) and a shoot upward, reaching for the light. A little water and sunshine, a little fertilizer further down the road – and it grows into what it should be.
Most every word we say, most every deed we do, most every thought we have, is a seed.
This week, we’ll plants a few seeds – seeds of love and hope – we’ll encourage our children through a tough time, we’ll help our spouse face a challenge, we’ll bless a friend along the way, and we’ll enliven our own spirit with the seeds of trust and love, planted with prayer and nourished with faith.
We’re all gardeners in God’s Garden of Life.
Have a good week, and keep your eye out for your seeds sprouting to life.

Eva rib – Very popular in decorating environments. this is a kind of easy cultivation and able to make your space even more elegant. Check out!
Table of Contents
The eva ri-b, also known as Monstera Adansonii , is a plant native to the rainforests of Central and South America. It is valued for its large and showy green leaves with irregular cutouts, being very popular in the ornamentation of environments.
With that in mind, today we’re going to teach you how to grow the eva rib at home and make your space even more elegant. Check out!
Step by step how to grow
Eva ribs need indirect light and should not be exposed to direct sunlight. In addition, the ideal temperature for the plant varies between 18°C and 27°C. Therefore, choose a location with indirect light and a suitable temperature.
Eva ribs need moist, well-draining soil. You can use a plant soil mix and add a little perlite or sand to ensure good drainage.
With regard to watering, it is important that it be regular, keeping the soil moist, but not soaked. It’s important not to let the plant dry out completely between waterings, as this can cause damage to the roots.
Eva ribs can be fertilized every two weeks during spring and summer with a liquid fertilizer for green plants.
As the eva rib grows, it may need support to stay upright. You can use a stake or a trellis to help the plant stay upright.
Eva ribs do not need regular pruning, but can be pruned to control their size and shape.
Eva ribs can be propagated by cuttings. To do this, cut a piece of the plant with a knot and one or two leaves and place it in a glass of water so that the roots grow. When the roots have grown long enough, plant the cutting in a pot with moist soil.

A couple months ago Christopher was watching his "Curious George Goes Green" DVD and for the first time I actually sat down to watch it with him. There was an episode dedicated to composting and I though, "HEY! ...I CAN DO THAT!"
1.) choosing a location-- You can either compost in a container OR choose to simply put it in a pile
-- Make sure the area gets equal shade AND sunlight. Too much sun and it'll dry out...too little sun and the compost won't properly activate
-- If you're concerned about critters...use a container. Fairly inexpensive to build yourself!
( in an apartment or duplex? You can compost indoors, too! )
I chose to put our pile on bare ground in an old farm structure on our property. It gets plenty of shade and the area is fence off so I'm not worried about animals.
2.) add "Greens" & "Browns"-- The secret to perfect composting (so I've read) is getting the right mixture
-- "Greens": fruits, vegetables, old plants...things with moisture in them
-- "Browns": Dead leaves, wood scraps, ....dry

Throughout the 1930s, a drought swept through the Southern Plains of the United States of America and devastated a region already in the midst of the Great Depression. Though it would affect farms and families across many states, it came to be known as the Oklahoma Dust Bowl. The drought, heavy windblown dust and agricultural decline all combined to wreak havoc on the area and prolong the economic decline of the entire country.
Beginning in 1931, and lasting a full eight years, the Dust Bowl highlighted the poor agricultural practices of the time and showed how the bountiful harvests of the 1920s had been built on short-term visions. In that, way the Dust Bowl is the perfect metaphor for the entire era. The poor ploughing practices of the 1920s had enriched the entire area during the heavy rainfalls of the Roaring Twenties. The rain produced huge harvests and led to prosperity for many farmers.
At the onset of the 1930s, two years after the Wall Street Crash had plunged the entire country in to crisis, the droughts that would last the entire decade began. The farmers were not ready, the soil had been ripped up over the course of the 1920s, and strong dust clouds began enveloping the area. Throughout the decade, many families were forced to leave the Southern Plains as the Dust Bowl worsened. Children went back and forth from schools wearing masks for their mouths, wives hung wet blankets over windows to keep the dust out and the farming economy collapsed completely.
The Dust Bowl exodus was the largest migration in American history within a short period. Between 1930 and 1940, approximately 3.5 million people moved out of the Plains states, more were said to have moved to California during the Dust Bowl than during the Gold Rush of the 1840s.

Blue and I took a nice walk out to the back yard this afternoon. Those tomatoes, lettuces and beans are growing like crazy. Even in "autumn", our growing season just goes on. One of the great things about Hawaii. We can plant just about anytime.
Now that they are growing, I have to learn the best way to harvest them... I think my tomato plants are a bit crowded, but I don't have the heart to pull any more out.
I hate thinning growing seedlings!
In John chapter 15:1-4, Jesus says,
Thundershowers are forecast for the next two days, so I'll enjoy the sunshine while it lasts. There's even a "winter advisory" out for the Big Island. Yes, we do get snow! Just on the summits of Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa.

Did you know that the colorful gold, red and brown leaves that blanket your lawn in the fall can add to your garden’s beauty in the spring? Fallen leaves contain an abundance of soil-enriching nutrients that can keep landscapes healthy after they breakdown.
Organic materials, such as leaves, grass and food can be composted or used as leaf mulch to improve soil structure, conserve water, and control aeration corrosion.
So, rather than shoving them into a garbage cart headed for the landfill (now illegal in some areas) or burning them (which pollutes air)―transform your fallen leaves into compost or use as leaf mulch.
Good Green Habits for Fallen Leaves
Here are planet-friendly tips for fallen leaves, grass clippings, shrub trimmings and other decaying compostable materials:
- Place leaves in your green waste cart along with other yard trimmings (some garbage companies also accept food waste and food-soiled paper) to be transported to composting facilities where they decompose into rich soil amendment and mulch.
- Save extra leaves and green waste in trash bags and empty a little each week into your green waste cart―but no plastic in the cart!
- Store extra leaves in bags and add a little at a time to your compost bin―visit USEPA to learn how to compost at home.
- Shred or chop leaves (some lawnmowers will do this for you) and spread around trees, shrubs and perennials to mulch and insulate for winter―or allow shredded leaves to remain on your lawn.
- Till or dig whole leaves directly into gardens to keep them healthy.

North Texas Mowing Tips
TIPS From “Weed Man”
DO NOT SCALP your North Texas lawn!
A thick lawn creates a canopy over the soil, which helps to prevent weeds from germinating. When you scalp the lawn, you remove this blanket and expose your lawn to severe weed outbreaks. Additionally, scalping the lawn before it has fully come out of dormancy exposes your lawn to weed outbreaks at the most vulnerable time of year for weeds in our region. Pre-emergent applications do not stop all weeds, but a thick lawn along with pre-emergent applications help prevent many weeds.
There are a significant amount of web sites, landscapers, and mowers who insist scalping the lawn is necessary. They are wrong! The trusted resource for lawns in our region is Texas A&M University, and they recommend normal mowing heights at all times of the year (scalping is not a normal mowing height), and do not remove the grass clippings from the lawn.
North Texas lawns should be mowed regularly at their proper heights (see below). This means that your North Texas lawn may require mowing more than once a week during peak growth and only once every two weeks during periods of slow growth.
The root system of a grass plant grows proportionately to the above grounds parts of the plant; therefore, a longer cutting height results in a stronger, deeper root system.
Calculate your mower blade height by measuring the distance between the concrete surface and the base of your lawn mower at the sides, front and back.
Lawn mower blades should be kept razor sharp. A sharp blade makes a clean, precise cut of each grass blade. This clean cut allows the grass blade to heal quickly and keeps the lawn looking tidy.
A dull blade chews and frays grass blades. This messy chopping results in straggly, rough tips which give the lawn an ugly, gray appearance and expose wounded tissue to disease attacks.To maintain a razor-sharp blade throughout the mowing season, sharpen the blade 2-3 times each year. Remember that few new lawn mowers are sold with a pre-sharpened blade. A sharp blade results in longer blade life and less wear and tear on your lawnmower’s engine.
Please mow frequently. No more than 1/3 of a grass plant should be removed with each mowing.
It is only necessary to remove lawn clippings if they are long and will smother the lawn. Leaving grass clippings in the lawn when mowing is an environmentally beneficial practice referred to as grass recycling. Leaving grass clippings to decompose on a lawn naturally adds valuable nutrients back into the soil and also helps to conserve valuable landfill space by reducing waste.
The use of a mulching type mower is preferred for this practice since it promotes a more uniform distribution of grass clippings, thus allowing for quicker decomposition of the recycled grass plants.
If the optimum mowing height selected is 2 inches then the lawn should be mowed before the lawn height reaches 3 inches to ensure that only 1/3 of the blade height is removed.
To reduce the chance of frayed grass blades, and slips and falls, lawn mowings should be done when grass blades are dry.
The mowing direction should be altered each mowing. This procedure will keep the grass growing strong and straight while reducing weed grass infestation.
Lawns cut at the proper height are stronger and healthier because the root system is stronger and deeper. Your lawn will require fewer waterings and will be more able to resist insect and diseases attack!

To keep your lawn lush green, and the trees & plants healthy, mulching is definitely an aspect of gardening and lawn care that you should never overlook. You can do it by yourself but it’s always best to hire a professional tree service in Texas to ensure it’s done the right way.
Before we go on to explaining the amazing benefits of mulching around trees and shrubs, let us first explain what exactly mulching is and how it’s done:
Mulching – What is it?
Mulching can be described as an organic material spread on the surface of the soil. Some of the most popular types of organic mulch are grass clipping, hardwood bark like pine or shredded barks, animal manure, mushroom compost, pine bough, composted leaf-litter, pine needle, shredded leave, straw, sawdust and peat moss.
How to Apply Mulch?
Here’s how to mulch:
- First, select the mulch type and spread it under your trees and planting beds. The recommended depth is 3 to 4 inches for both medium and coarse textured mulch materials.
- Once you spread it, pull it away from the base of your tree, creating a donut like hole. Never pile it against the trunk because excessive mulch around the trunk can build up moisture which is an ideal condition for pests and fungi.
- Remember, the mulched area should ideally extend to the drip-line of the tree branches covering at least a 4 to 5 foot diameter area.
- Make sure to check the depth of the mulch every year and replenish it if and when necessary.
Now that you know what is mulching and how to apply it, let us look at some of the amazing benefits of mulching around trees:
- Excellent for Insulation
Mulch protects the roots from temperature extremes. As compared to bare soil, it offers an insulation layer. Mulched soil is warmer in winters and cooler in summers.
- Help Conserve Soil Moisture
Bare soil tend to heat up during summers, causing water to evaporate, which often leads to root desiccation and eventually, death. Mulch, on the other hand, can lower moisture loss significantly by preventing the light from the sun from heating the soil.
- Improves Soil Fertility and Physical Structure
When mulch breaks-down, it adds organic matter to the heavy clay soils and also dramatically improves the water retention capacity of sandy soils by releasing essential nutrients such as phosphorous and nitrogen.
- Prevents Water Run-off
Bare soil can break apart or disperse due to sprinkler droplets or rain. However, if you add mulch to your soil, you don’t have to worry about this as the mulch provides a sponge surface that quickly absorbs water and lowers water runoff greatly.
Other great benefits include:

My work for the municipality
As a Municipal Manager, I am responsible for all municipal affairs. I lead various departments and ensure the proper implementation of our municipality’s strategic plan. As such, I am also responsible for the local economic development programme.
Experience in the Netherlands
First of all, I found the Local Economic Development course very rich in content, because it provided a holistic comprehension of what LED is all about. The course provided practical examples of LED projects from different approaches and skills. My experience at the Municipality of Huizen was also beyond expectations. I was impressed to learn about the high level of development in the municipality and the level of in-house capacity that the municipality has. I got to know many different strategies that I would also like to implement at home.
Sustainable Urban Farming for a Living
I have a passion for rural development and believe that the poorer population should benefit from this. My project aims to create food security, address unemployment and environmental management for a six-month trial. In addition, I use volunteers to grow foods. We do this to feed vulnerable orphans and sell the food production with profit. After six months, the project will be expanded to the rest of the municipality and will encourage the cultivation of products and their sales on the local market. The surplus of food will go to the 44 orphans of the Care Point community centre run by the same volunteers.

Being well-known for beautiful seagrass products for centuries, Nga Son district (Thanh Hoa province, Vietnam) is always bustling during the harvest season. Local farmers harvest seagrass together and dry them everywhere from the grass fields to the village roads and the yards of each family.
You might ask why we choose Nga Son’s seagrass but not from anywhere else as raw material for our production. Thanks to the featuring climate and soil of this area, Nga Son’s seagrass material is very well known for its durability and outstanding appearance.
For more than 40 years, naturally occurring fibers from seagrass, water hyacinth, palm leaf, and cornhusk from the villages of Vietnam have been transformed into woven handicraft products by craftswomen. The oldest seagrass village in Vietnam’s Nga Son district has existed for more than 150 years.
Seagrass in particular is best harvested in the afternoon and split the next morning for the fibers to be of the highest quality. This is followed by three days of drying in the sun before the fibers are ready to be twisted and woven by skilled artisans. Product design dictates the way these natural materials will be braided and twisted using the unique skills of the craftsmen.
Thousands of farmers and artisans of Nga Son in Seagrass Season engaged in various stages of making seagrass items, from cutting, splitting, dyeing, and drying, to weaving.
Greenvibe is also a supplier of handicraft home decor products – from natural placemats and coasters to wholesale baskets and trays. We value quality, trust, and effectiveness in our business ventures.

McKENZIE (August 7) — Jimmy Tosh of Tosh Farms, Henry, was the featured speaker at the McKenzie Rotary Club on Tuesday, August 7.
Tosh said the Henry-based farming operation began in 1913 and now operates under three brands: Tosh Farms, Tosh Pork, and Bacon By Gosh (trucking operation).
It is a family-owned, award-winning operation with 385 employees, 20,000 acres either owned or leased for crop production, 33,500 sows in production, and sells 770,000 hogs annually. It owns and operates its own production barns plus has 80 contract family-owned barns. The topped-out hogs are transported mainly to Louisville, Kentucky for processing.
Tariffs had depressed the pork and row crop business, said Tosh. Also, the increase in the price of steel has greatly affected the price of erecting new hog barns, such as the Crutchfield site just outside of McKenzie. One portion of that construction project will be not be completed at this time, said Tosh.

Tips for repotting -
After years the soil your plant is in will become nutrient deficient and will become root bound. Repotting will greatly benefit your plants. Contact us for maintenance and any help.
Here are simple steps to repot:
- Wait for planter to be dry
- Remove plants from planter
- Cut the dead or oversized roots from the bottom of the succulent (removing more than half of the roots will not effect the plant)
- Remove the dead leaves at the base of your succulent
- Add new soil to replenish nutrients
- Place the succulent back into its planter
- Add the stones or pebbles back onto the visible soil around your succulent
- Do not water your repotted succulent for a week. This is so the roots of the succulent can callus and the roots do not rot!

Every summer we seem to grow loads and loads of squash and zucchini. I love to sautee them in with a little butter and salt and pepper but this is another wonderful way to serve them that I think you will enjoy.
It is made with homemade croutons.
And lots of cheese.
We had it when Shireen and Russell were here a few weeks ago and they both loved it and deemed it “blog worthy”!

The Single Best Strategy To Use For Cutting Down A Big Tree
Steps to Start a BackyardThere are a few plants that are difficult to grow from seeds like tomatoes, peppers, and petunias, so you may want to plant their seedlings instead.

Many vegetables, fruits, and fruit will need six hours, at least, of full sunlight daily; some of them may need more time. Flowers are going to differ; a few desire full sun sun; and sometimes colour. You can have a container flower garden for shade or sun and an in-ground flower garden in full sunshine. Make sure that your garden hose is going to be long enough to reach if your garden is not likely to function as next to the water spigot. Preparation is needed by your backyard soil that is in-ground after the ground is pliable with plenty of compost or natural stuff. Garden dirt needs to get organic material added to be sure it stays nutritious. If you feed garden dirt each season it will increase and create everything your plants need for generating a decent crop or gorgeous crops and flowers.
As new gardeners you may find your very first season gardening might not provide if you loved, the very harvest of the most attractive flowers or vegetables; do not become discouraged. Just remember to cultivate the plants which will do well on your environment, keep your lawn small at early and expand the plants that your loved ones and you can enjoy.

A good investment is a garden hat with a wide brim to protect your head and face from the sun along with a superior sunblock. In the event you may not need to use sunblock some garments with long sleeves and trousers may be put on for defense.

What’s All The Buzz About Honey Bees?
December 8, 2014
by Dr. Susan Bradt
Honeybees are getting a lot of attention lately and for good reason.
These busy workers pollinate 80 percent of our flowering crops, which constitute 1/3 of everything we eat! Without them, we couldn’t grow the food we currently grow.
These amazing insects are not only important to our food supply but also may have an intriguing role to play in our health. The medicinal benefits of honey, bee venom and pollen have been recognized for quite some time and have been used to treat such conditions as arthritis, allergies and skin wounds.
Their populations have been declining rapidly over the past few decades, threatening the food supply of many important crops. This steep decline is still a bit of a mystery but mites, pathogens and pesticides are likely to blame.
Dr. Bradt’s A Beekeeper!
I started my own venture in beekeeping this year after learning more about the difficulties honeybees are facing in maintaining their populations. Keeping bees has been a humbling and incredibly fun learning experience for my family and myself. Though I am certainly not an expert in beekeeping yet, it feels great to be teaching my children about such an amazing and important insect that our lives literally depend upon.
We are lucky to live in a city that is passionate about honeybees and their plight. Asheville is now proudly named an Official Bee City USA and 2 other cities in the US have followed suit so far. Learn more here:
President Obama has even formed a task force to begin to address the issue on a national level. http://www.cnn.com/2014/06/22/politics/honey-bees-protection/
On an intriguing health note, here is an article that I came across about the potential for honey to fight MRSA and other resistant bacteria, a growing concern in the United States and elsewhere:
If all goes well with our hives over the winter, we will hopefully enjoy the fruits of our labors with our own honey harvest next season.
This spring, consider planting your own honeybee garden or visiting our local honeybee stores in Asheville! Support you local beekeepers by buying local raw honey, which is great for coughs, immune support and allergies.
~ Dr. Susan Bradt

History of Cotton
The first people in Eurasia to grow cotton for clothing and towels and sheets were the Harappan people in India, about 2500 BC. We know because people wrote about cotton in the Rig Veda, and that was written about 600 BC in India. Egyptian farmers also grew a little bit of cotton, but cotton never became very important in Egypt, where people mostly wore linen clothing.
In the 400s BC, aGreekhistorian,Herodotus, wrote that in India there were "trees growing wild, which produce a kind of wool better than sheep’s wool in beauty and quality, which the Indians use for making their clothes" (Book III, and again in Book VII, where Herodotus tells us that Indians fighting in Xerxes’ army were dressed in cotton). Around this time, the Ajanta Cave carvings show that cotton growers in India had invented aroller machine to get the seeds out of the cotton.
By the Guptan period, about 200 AD, the Indians made a good business of selling cotton as a luxury to the Parthiansto their west and to the Chinese to their east. The Romans, further away, thought of cotton as an expensive luxury like silk. They had to buy it from Arabic or Parthian traders. The Roman encyclopedia writer Pliny reported that in India there were "trees that bear wool" and "balls of down from which an expensive linen material for clothes is made" (Pliny Book XII 38).
Indian cotton cloth was so expensive that their customers started trying to grow cotton for themselves. By the 400s AD, people were growing cotton in East Africa. In the 500s AD, the Sassanians were growing cotton, at least at the eastern city of Merv.
The establishment of the Islamic Empire in the late 600s AD gave a big push to cotton production, which spread westward across the Islamic Empire to North Africa and Spain (which also uses the Arabic word for cotton, "algodon"). The English word for cotton comes from the Arabic qutun. It's possible that the Medieval Warm Period helped to encourage cotton growing in West Asia. And the Eastern Roman Empire also started growing cotton, by the 700s or so. In West Asia and northern Africa, poor people began wearing cotton clothing. In Central Africa, people were wearing Indian cotton by 800 AD, and by 1000 AD Indian cotton was reaching West Africa. By 1100 AD, people were growing and weaving cotton in West Africa. The Berbers and Tuareg in Chad and Niger used cotton for their tents by the 1300s (according to Ibn Battuta).
But in Europe, cotton was still a very unusual luxury, imported from India through the Islamic empire. After about 1000 Italian traders brought a little more cotton to Europe, but still as a finished luxury product, not growing it in Europe.
In the 1200s AD the Mongol emperors of China encouraged people to grow cotton there, and their tax rebates and training programs were so successful that cotton soon became the first choice for poor people's clothing. In the 1400s Italians began to produce cotton for themselves at Genoa and other North Italian cities, though it never became ordinary clothing in Europe.

Perennials are nature’s gift, continuously giving lush greenery and grasses with bursts of spring and summer color. They provide the building blocks to any landscape. That doesn’t mean they don’t require tender love and care. Even hardy varieties can benefit from extra attention, especially in the winter and summer seasons.
1. Fertilize Properly
Feed your perennials an all-purpose food unless it’s a variety that requires a special blend of nutrients. Mix and apply the fertilizer according to the package instructions. You might be tempted to overfeed your plants but resist the temptation. This will be counterproductive and result in unhealthy plants.
Some perennials prefer two feedings, resulting in one in the spring and another after the first bloom applied to the roots. It’s important to know your plants and their requirements well.
2. Divide and Relocate
Perennials tend to spread wide and overcrowd/invade other spaces. This can mean less nutrients for other plants. To keep them healthy, you should divide planting areas and either give them away, discard, or relocate healthy plants.
This upkeep doesn’t require a yearly commitment. Every three to five years will be sufficient for most perennials. A handful will only require it every 10 years. When it’s time, you can divide them in the early spring or in the fall after blooming finishes. However, bearded irises and Hosta varieties are better split in the summer
After your blossoms die, pluck them off. This allows your perennials to reroute their resources to other areas of the plant to produce new blossoms. It’s a painstaking long process, but the rewards are healthy plants and longer blooming periods.
Some perennials don’t require extensive deadheading or the reward of doing so is minimal. These plants typically have short bloom windows.
4. Meet Watering Needs
Your perennials might be the hardiest plants in your garden. However, even drought resistant varieties require water to promote optimal health.
Organizing your flowers and plants by their watering needs can make keeping track a snap. This is especially true if you have plants prone to powdery mildew, which are more sensitive to watering times and prefer morning and afternoon. The extra sunlight and warmth help keep water-based diseases at bay.
Drip irrigation or soaking are both good methods for delivering water, but in most cases, how you water isn’t important. However, delicate perennials and those not resistant to disease will do better with soaking as opposed to sprinklers that leave behind extra moisture on the leaves and stem. This promotes the growth of water-based diseases.
5. Winter Cutting
You’ll need to consider whether to cut back your perennials. Cutting is optional. Evergreen and semi-evergreen varieties don’t require it until after winter. When to start cutting will depend on your seasons and the ground temperatures, but after the blooming season ends and before the ground freezes is optimal.
Whether or not you cut, you should apply a 2-3-inch layer of mulch once the ground freezes or for warmer climates, you’ve passed a few frosts. This protective barrier will provide your soil with nutrients, protect your plant’s roots, and it minimizes weed growth come springtime. However, don’t cover the perennials themselves.
If you grow in pots, use a protective foam or gardening fabric instead of mulch. You should consider transplanting or moving your pots indoors too. A deep prolonged freeze will kill your perennial’s root system.
6. Introduce Support and Training Tools Early
Trailing vines of lush greenery and flowers add a touch to any garden-scape. If your perennials will require a supportive device, you should add it as soon as possible. This allows the plant’s roots to grow around the stake, which only adds more support. Waiting until later puts your plant’s root system at risk, which means you might kill or weaken your perennial.
Unsure about support? Research your perennial variety as best as you can. If you wind up needing a device, consider an option that doesn’t stake into the ground. This will ensure healthy, undisturbed roots.
Tending to your perennials provides the building blocks for your garden’s aesthetics and health. While some tips might appear basic, often it’s the little things that make the largest impact. The same applies to perennials in both care and the value they add to your garden every year they return.

Meyer Lemon Trees, or Citrus × meyeri, are a popular fruit tree that is widely grown for its delicious and fragrant fruit. Native to China, the Meyer Lemon Tree is a hybrid citrus fruit tree that is a cross between a lemon tree and a mandarin orange tree. It is an evergreen tree that can grow up to 15 feet tall and 10 feet wide, and it produces a juicy, sweet-tart fruit that is thinner-skinned and less acidic than other lemon varieties. Meyer Lemon Trees are a popular choice for gardeners and hobbyists who enjoy growing their own fruit trees, and they are also widely used in commercial agriculture for their high yields and excellent quality fruit.
Meyer Lemon Trees: Characteristics and Varieties
The Meyer Lemon Tree is a small to medium-sized tree that can grow up to 15 feet tall and 10 feet wide. It has dark green leaves that are long and oval-shaped, and it produces fragrant white flowers that are tinged with a pink hue. The fruit of the Meyer Lemon Tree is round to oval-shaped, with a smooth, thin, yellow-orange skin that is fragrant and easy to peel. The flesh of the fruit is juicy and sweet-tart, with a slightly orange hue and few seeds.
There are several varieties of Meyer Lemon Trees available, each with its own unique characteristics. Some of the most popular varieties include:
Improved Meyer: This variety is the most commonly grown Meyer Lemon Tree, and it is known for its large, juicy fruit and high yields. It is a hardy tree that is resistant to many diseases and pests.
Dwarf Meyer: This variety is a smaller, more compact tree that is ideal for growing in containers or small spaces. It produces smaller fruit than the Improved Meyer, but it is still flavorful and fragrant.
Variegated Pink: This variety is a beautiful and unusual tree that produces fruit with a pinkish hue. It is highly ornamental and is often grown for its unique appearance.
Growing Meyer Lemon Trees
Meyer Lemon Trees are relatively easy to grow, but they do require certain growing conditions to thrive. They prefer a warm, sunny location with well-draining soil, and they are best suited for USDA Hardiness Zones 9-11. If you live in a cooler climate, you can still grow a Meyer Lemon Tree in a container and bring it indoors during the winter months.
Propagation methods for Meyer Lemon Trees include grafting and budding, which are best left to experienced growers. For the home gardener, the easiest way to obtain a Meyer Lemon Tree is to purchase a grafted tree from a reputable nursery or garden center.
When planting a Meyer Lemon Tree, it is important to select a location with plenty of sunlight and well-draining soil. The tree should be planted at the same depth it was in the container, and the soil should be kept moist but not waterlogged. Meyer Lemon Trees should be fertilized regularly with a citrus-specific fertilizer to promote healthy growth and fruit production.
Pruning and Training Meyer Lemon Trees
Pruning and training a Meyer Lemon Tree is important for maintaining its shape and promoting healthy growth. The best time to prune a Meyer Lemon Tree is in the late winter or early spring, before new growth begins. The tree should be pruned to remove any dead or diseased wood, as well as any crossing or rubbing branches. The remaining branches should be spaced evenly and trained to grow in an open, vase-like shape to promote good air circulation and sunlight penetration.
Common Diseases and Pests
Like all fruit trees, Meyer Lemon Trees are susceptible to certain diseases and pests. Some of the most common diseases include citrus canker, citrus greening, and root rot. These diseases can be prevented by maintaining good cultural practices, such as proper fertilization, irrigation, and pruning techniques, and by using disease-resistant cultivars when possible.
Meyer Lemon Trees are also susceptible to certain pests, including aphids, spider mites, and citrus leaf miners. These pests can be controlled with insecticidal soaps or horticultural oils, or by introducing natural predators such as ladybugs or lacewings.
Harvesting and Storing Meyer Lemons
Meyer Lemons should be left on the tree until they are fully ripe, which can take up to 6-9 months from the time of flowering. The fruit is ripe when it turns a bright yellow-orange color and is slightly soft to the touch. Meyer Lemons should be harvested by cutting the fruit from the tree with a pair of sharp scissors or pruning shears.
Meyer Lemons can be stored at room temperature for several days, or in the refrigerator for up to several weeks. The fruit should be stored in a plastic bag or container to prevent it from drying out, and should be kept separate from other fruits and vegetables to prevent cross-contamination.
Using Meyer Lemons
Meyer Lemons are a versatile fruit that can be used in a variety of culinary applications. They are commonly used in baked goods, such as cakes, pies, and tarts, and are also used to flavor sauces, dressings, and marinades. Meyer Lemons can also be used to make lemonade, sorbet, and other refreshing beverages.
In addition to their culinary uses, Meyer Lemons also have a number of other uses. They can be used to make natural cleaning solutions, as their acidic properties make them an effective natural cleaner. Meyer Lemons can also be used as a natural remedy for a variety of ailments, including colds, coughs, and sore throats.
Meyer Lemon Trees are a popular fruit tree that is prized for its delicious and fragrant fruit. They are relatively easy to grow, and are a popular choice for gardeners and hobbyists who enjoy growing their own fruit trees. Meyer Lemons are a versatile fruit that can be used in a variety of culinary and non-culinary applications, and are highly valued for their unique flavor and fragrance. Whether you are a seasoned grower or a novice gardener, Meyer Lemon Trees are an excellent addition to any garden or orchard.

Liquid & Micro-Granulate Enological Enzymes for Winemaking
Enological enzymes have proven their value in wineries around the world to produce wine with enhanced varietal aroma, flavor, mouthfeel and color. Phenolic compounds include natural color pigments, natural tannins, and many flavor and aroma compounds. Polysaccharides, including pectin, are chains of sugar molecules and make up the structure of grape cells. Phenolic and polysaccharide content and composition vary greatly between grape varieties and are determined by factors such as the form and structure of grapes, climate, vintage quality, soil type, drainage, and harvesting practices. Most of the desirable phenolics are contained in the epidermic and hypodermic cell layers of the grape skin. Selective release of these flavor, color and aromatic compounds serves to increase varietal intensity without introducing undesirable components. The right blend of enzymes, added at the crusher, will slightly perforate the cell wall structure of these cells allowing the gentle diffusion of juice, tannins and anthocyanins early in the maceration period and with less mechanical force leading to more supple tannins.
Maceration and extraction enzymes are used to help release juice from grapes and desired contents such as flavor, tannin, color and other key phenolic compounds from juice and skins. Free-run juice volume and press capacity can be increased significantly with the application of extraction enzymes while shortening maceration time and effort. For red grapes in particular, macerating enzymes help break down cell walls for a more gentle phenolic extraction, resulting in improved color stability, aroma and rounder mouthfeel. Clarification and filtration enzymes are used to maximize clarification speed and yield. They improve settling or flotation while reducing the volume of gross lees. Correct and rapid depectinization is essential to achieving low viscosity and the formation of floc necessary for successful flotation. Filtration enzymes are used to degrade remaining soluble pectins and polysaccharide colloids to save wine, material and time during filtration. Aroma liberating enzymes release bound terpenes in white wines, allowing for the natural fruit and floral characteristics in the wine to be revealed. They also aid in post fermentation clarification. Gusmer offers both micro-granulate and liquid enological enzymes in purified formulations for any winemaking regime.

Ploughwomen are being encouraged to enter a rural competition which attracted two thousand visitors after a two year break.
About 50 ploughmen competed at the Royal East Berkshire Agricultural Association’s ploughing match on Sunday on the Wargrave/Waltham St Lawrence border.
Association chair Alan Keene said: “Sadly there were no ladies [ploughing] and we would certainly like to see some.
“There are also very few young tractor drivers which is worrying because the population of ploughmen competing is getting older and as they retire they are not being replaced.”
He added: “Very little commercial ploughing is done on farms in our area nowadays for all sorts of environmental and husbandry reasons.
“Ploughing is becoming one of many traditional skills that are only kept alive by enthusiasts wanting to practice the old crafts and by people who are keen to watch them. Hence why ploughing matches are as popular as ever.”
Two Wokingham ploughmen were among Sunday’s winners.
Nathan Smith’s five years of hard work restoring his great grandfather’s 1964 Fordson Super Major tractor were rewarded. He won the prize for best maintained classic tractor at the match.
The former Forest School student, who lives at Hatch Farm, Sindlesham, said: “I’m over the moon about it, very happy. It was the first show I’ve been to with the tractor since restoring it. All my family still do the ploughing matches. It’s a great tradition to carry on.”
Mr Smith, 22, runs his own business doing hedge cutting, paddock maintenance and other work. He is also a tractor driver for some hay and straw merchants.
Farmer Mark Burrows, 52, was first in his class for ploughing using his vintage 1944 standard Fordson N tractor. He also had the best maintained vintage tractor. “I do about eight matches a year, as many as I can,” he said.
He and his brother own Targetts Farm, Maidenhead Road, Wokingham where the business includes 45-50 acres of hay production. Their grandfather bought the farm on a visit to Bracknell cattle market in 1934.
The match included ploughing using old and modern tractors, horse ploughing, a fun dog show, a falconry display, tractor rides, trade stands and stalls. Hall Hunter Premium Berry Growers of Wokingham helped stock a fruit and vegetable display. The event at Church Farm was by permission of the owners David Philp and partners.
Heavy rain stopped the match’s tractor ploughing in 2019 and Covid cancelled last year’s match. Chair Mr Keene said: “After two years with no tractor ploughing everybody was keen to get back into the swing. Some of the regular ploughing matches on the calendar have still not managed to restart, which helped us to attract more entries.”
He added: “Some people may assume that farmers host ploughing matches as a way of getting their fields ploughed on the cheap but actually the opposite is true. Ploughing matches cause significant disruption to the farmer’s routine husbandry and we are very grateful to those who generously provide their land so that we can put on our show.”

BIOSORPTION OF COPPER AND LEAD IONS USING WHEAT HUSK
DIYALA JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING SCIENCES,
2015, Volume 8, Issue 4, Pages 835-845
AbstractThe present work focused on the effectiveness of wheat husk for removal of Cu(II) ions and pb(II) ions from aqueous solution. A batch biosorption experiments was carried out using wheat husk as a biosorbent for metal removal to determined optimum biosorption conditions including pH, biomass dosage, contact time, and temperature.
Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) adsorption results show maximum adsorption capacities of 93.41% for lead and 88% for cupper at pH 4, 5.5 respectively.
Various initial metal concentrations (from 20 to 100 ppm) and various amount of biosorbent were investigated.
The effect of pH was significant and varied with each metal. These results were found to be comparable to results reported from previous works. The results show that the removal efficiency of each adsorbent is highly dependent on pH, and metal ion removal occurred in the preferential order lead > cupper.
The FT-IR studies show that the C-O in carboxyl group of alginate directly attaches to the copper ion that leads to most of the adsorption. Langmuir, and Freundlich models were applied to describe the biosorption isotherm of the metal ions by wheat husk biomass. Langmuir model fitted the equilibrium data better than the Freundlich isotherm. The monolayer biosorption capacity of wheat husk for Pb(II) and Cr(III) ions was found to be 75.8 mg/g and 52.1 mg/g, respectively. From the D–R isotherm model, the mean free energy was calculated as 12.7 kJ/mol for Pb(II) biosorption and 10.5 kJ/mol for Cu(II) biosorption, indicating that the biosorption of both metal ions was taken place by chemical ion-exchange

The kingdom of heaven is like. . .a man scattering seed upon the ground. Seeds. . .there's a lot that goes into them to actually produce something, right? Someone has to prepare the soil, there's a seed scatterer, a waterer, some sun shared, sometimes fertilizer, and not to mention the pruning and harvesting-whether it be by hand or machine.
Look at your life-can you see all of these things evident in it? Can you see how God orchestrated the entire process? I can in mine. I experienced the preparation-welcome or not at the time! Someone first planted that seed. Many, many people watered it and watched-waiting for so long to watch it grow! Through that whole process I had a small part, but after that first growth, the responsibility came. It was my turn to start planting seeds. At the same time, I had to allow someone to prune me-someone to hold me accountable and challenge me and humble me.
So as I go through that process, I still wait for that wind to blow, speaking where I need to scatter the seed, where I am to water or spread some sun, and also the people that I need to prune so that the harvest might be so much more.
Where are you? Are you allowing someone to prune you? That sounds pretty weird. Haha. But, are you? Is someone honest enough to help you pick off what is holding you back from growth and encourage you on? Is your spirit humble enough to accept this? Do you give God access to Yourself?
Are you scattering seed, watering, or pruning for someone else? Is there some place that God is calling you and you are hesitating?
Or is someone scattering seeds upon you or watering you? Ahhh. . .the struggle that each part brings, but the excitement and passion that it all brings!
The kingdom of heaven is like. . .

Founded by farmers, Climate Action was born out of necessity from the Food & Agriculture industry.
Agriculture is the first sector in society to feel the effects of climate change, and also the one which can contribute the most to mitigating climate change.
According to IPCC, we are in urgent need of complementing GHG emissions reduction efforts with technologies, to remove CO2 from the atmosphere at a global scale.
Soils are the second largest carbon sink on the planet, behind only to our oceans. Sequestering carbon from the atmosphere and storing them in our farmlands is a sustainable, natural, and cost-efficient process, with multiple benefits to society and to our planet.
Climate Action is here to support farmers worldwide in combining emissions reduction with soil carbon sequestration at the scale needed to reframe global warming to below 2 degrees Celsius.
With the help of AI we can now both quantify and qualify soil carbon according to its stability, which finally allows soil carbon sequestration to be accurately monitored.
With the latest advances in spectrometry we can now bring the lab to the field, reducing the cost of soil measurement by up to 80%, and allowing automation for easy use.
Blockchain provides digital assurance of soil measurements, as well as tracking of the carbon footprint of food products throughout the value chain.
"We believe that experts should be allowed to be experts. We are aware that there are parts of our grocery trade value chain that we are dependent on but cannot directly influence. Climate Action is working closer to the solution. We are so impressed by their work and see potential in how they can reduce the climate impact of agriculture"
Brand, CSR and
Communications Director at
NOBEL PRIZE NEXT
"If you only guessed how many times we have all sat in international talks to find solutions to this question that is trully transformative. Once we can mensurate carbon storage in the soil, then our entire food production goes to perhaps not only produce food but to also produce carbon in the soil. We see such a fantastic change ahead us by having this data. If the project succeeds, then we can expect the Nobel Prize as Next."

The Sonneck Solar-Dripper for automatic irrigation!
The Solar-Dripper regulates the dripping speed fully automatically, depending on the temperature and on the water requirement of the plants!
Only 4 steps to an automatic watering of plants:
1. Insert the outer cone of the dosing unit to the plant
2. Fill the bottle with water
3. Screw the inner cone of the dosing unit onto the bottle
4. Attach bottle – done!
Solar radiation, ambient temperature and filling quantity influence the dripping speed of the Solar-Dripper. The black dosing cones are for plants with low water consumption, the red ones are for plants with high water consumption. The water dispenser sets contain a water bottle, each with a dosing inside and dosing outside cone. It is also possible to use conventional glass or plastic bottles of any size with EU screw caps for the dosing cones

Aptus Plant Tech is a completely new plant technology, birthed in commercial agriculture and now made available to the hydroponics industry.
Over the last 16 years, Aptus has dominated the market in Holland and is growing quickly in several other European markets. This rise to prominence is not from million dollar marketing budgets and aggressive sales tactics. Rather, Aptus products are built on true plant science, so growers experience production and cost-savings like they've never seen. We don't need to brag, the science speaks for itself.
We are heavily invested in bringing food production closer to the point of consumption. This is a growing movement called urban agriculture. Learn more about our efforts and how you can become involved.
Specifically designed for indoor cultivation and not for a greenhouse environment
Long awaited nutrient calculator app released in the next 10 days!!!! Sorry for the delay.........

Organic Doesn't Mean Healthier!
NOT AS HEALTHY
There’s some good news and some bad news about a new study that found organic produce and meat is no more nutritious that non-organic food, having the same vitamin and nutrient content, but it does contain less pesticide residue and antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Researchers from Stanford University and the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System reviewed over 200 studies on organic food, and found that the only nutrient difference was slighlty more phosphorus in the organic products.
But while more than one-third of regular produce had detectable pesticide residues, the same was true for only seven percent of organic produce.
Further, organic chicken and pork was 33 percent less likely to carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria than standard meat.
Under U.S. Department of Agriculture standards, organic farms have to avoid the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, hormones and antibiotics.
Organic livestock must also have access to pastures to graze.
So the bad news is you’re being fooled that organic is healthier..
The good news, you can save a BUNCH of money on groceries; that organic stuff is expensive!

Evaporation and Potential Evapotranspiration
You may know what "evaporation" is, but have you ever heard of "evapotranspiration"?
Evaporation and evapotranspiration are two important elements of hydrological observations. "Evaporation" is the total amount of water entering the atmosphere when water changes from its liquid state to gaseous state. Evaporation is related to sunlight, wind speed, temperature and humidity. The transfer of water from soil and plant surfaces to the atmosphere is called "evapotranspiration". "Potential evapotranspiration" is the amount of evapotranspiration that may occur when the soil often keeps moist. These data are very useful for hydrometeorological and agricultural studies as well as construction of reservoirs and freshwater lakes.
At the King's Park Meteorological Station, the daily measurement of water surface evaporation began in 1957, and "potential evapotranspiration" began even earlier in 1951. Both measurements are still in operation nowadays. Traditionally, evaporation is measured using an evaporation pan (Figure 1). The pan is filled with fresh water and equipped with a fixed hookgauge marking the water level before evaporation. Meteorological technician pours water into the pan daily at a certain fixed time and carefully measures its amount until the water surface has just touched the tip of the hookgauge again. This amount of water represents the amount of evaporation in the past 24 hours. If it has rained and the water level is higher than the hookgauge, water needs to be pumped out from the pan and measured. Evaporation of the day equals to the amount of rain minus the amount of water pumped. However, if the pan overflows in torrential rain situation, evaporation cannot be accurately calculated.
Figure 1. Evaporation Pan
The "potential evapotranspiration" is measured by using a evapotranspiration measuring device built with bricks and cement. It is covered with soil and planted with short grass on the top (Figure 2). There is an outlet tube extending from the bottom of the device to lead the run-off to another water tank. In the past, meteorological technician regularly sprinkled a certain amount of water on the grass every day to ensure that the soil was saturated with water, causing water to flow out of the outlet tube the next day. Assuming that the water content in the evapotranspiration measuring device remains the same between the two measurement times, the difference between the water sprinkled on the grass surface and the run-off represents "potential evapotranspiration". If there has been rain in the past 24 hours, the rainfall will also be taken into account for the calculation.
Figure 2. Measuring device for evapotranspiration
Since 2016, technical staff of the Observatory have successively automated these two observations, switching to electronic measurement and calculation instead of manual observation. Hookgauges, measuring rulers and water measuring vessels, etc. were no longer used. To measure the change in the height of water level, placing an electronic pressure sensor in the evaporation pan or water tank (Figure 3) is all we need now. The sensor can measure the water level and its changes based on the water pressure, and the "evaporation" and "potential evapotranspiration" can then be calculated. If heavy rain occurs, when the water level reaches a preset height, the device will make a record and then drain the water from the pan or the tank with a pump. This is to prevent overflow which affects the reading. Automated observations not only save manpower, but also eliminate errors arising from observations performed by different people, and increase the data availability on heavy rain days.

As we all know, due to circumstances, we became more homebound than usual. As more and more people started growing plants at home, I jumped on the bandwagon too wanting to put my green thumb to use. Unfortunately, as I came to realise, I did not possess a green thumb at all! Every plant that I tried to grow from seeds and even Ikea-bought succulents died under my watch! After going through a few pots of dead plants…I had an “Aha” moment…..I went out to the nearest florist and bought myself a ready grown mint plant.

10 Reasons To Go Organic
- Organic products meet stringent national standards. The “Organic Canada” label assures the public that products have been grown and handled using strict methods and guidelines.
- Reduction of chemicals! Many herbicides and insecticides commonly used in agriculture have been shown to be endocrine disruptors, carcinogens or have a negative effect on a child’s development. The choice of certified organic products is a way to reduce exposure to chemical residues. This is even more true with synthetic ingredients found in conventional cosmetics.
- Organic farms take water seriously. Organic farmers must manage their land and lives around bodies of water very carefully and are subject to annual inspections. The absence of synthetic fertilizers and persistent toxic chemicals makes organic agriculture more conducive to protecting our precious water supplies.
- Organic farmers work in harmony with nature. Organic farming contributes to the formation of healthy ecosystems and biodiversity, both on and around organic farms and more importantly for promoting sustainability and ecological balance.
- Biological methods reduce pollution and energy loss. More energy is needed to produce synthetic fertilizers from fossil fuels than to grow and harvest crops or transport food. Canadian studies show that organic farming practices can use as little as half of the energy required for other farming methods and help sequester carbon back into the soil.
- Protecting the health of farmers and children. Farmers exposed to pesticides are much more likely to suffer from cancer than non-farmers or organic farmers. Children are more exposed than adults when they ingest pesticide residues in food. The choice of organic products reduces the exposure for children and farmers.
- Organic Farmers Contribute to Healthy Soil. Soil is the very foundation of the food chain. Organic agriculture focuses on sustainable practices that promote healthy soil microbiology and prevent erosion leaving fertile soil that will feed future generations.
- Organic farming is good for rural Canada. The Census for Agriculture has shown that organic farming families, on average, are more successful in harvesting than the typical Canadian farm and on average employ more people.
- Organic producers strive to preserve genetic diversity. The loss of a wide variety of species (biodiversity) is one of the most important concerns of our time. Fortunately, for decades, many organic farmers have been collecting and preserving seeds and cultivating heritage varieties and breeding rare livestock breeds.
- Organic is the only standard for non-genetically modified products enforced by the Government of Canada. Organic standards prohibit the use of GMOs in seeds, feed and feed ingredients as well as processed organic products. If you are concerned about GMOs, think before you eat: think Organic Canada!
The ECOCERT®, COSMÉBIO and COSMOS standards that we follow in body care and cosmetics at Druide® Laboratories go even further than in agriculture, since all transformation processes are evaluated, as well as, all added ingredients, such as natural preservatives or natural stabilizers. No petroleum products are allowed and there is no testing on animals for ingredients or finished products. Two annual audits are done on-site and with all our suppliers for ingredients and packaging.

We decided a change of scenery would be good since we travel the same roads every six weeks. After leaving Bari, we took a detour and avoided the autostrada. It was a delightful drive. One of my favorite things are the trunks of olive trees found in the Bari area. We saw some very unique ones along the way. We saw farms and orchards we'd never seen before. We even drove by a castle. To top it all off, we found a place that served almond granitas.

Blazing Hope Youth Family Ranch enjoyed 121 visits last week with 26 hours of our wonderful volunteers serving the kids and the horses. We rode 20 of our horses. Our special Wednesday group of kids is really improving their riding skills as we work with about a dozen of the horses to help them blossom. We are thankful for the grass hay donation from Bob Morf and the donation of the delivery fee from Glen Almond. These two families are being used by God to bless families.
Buying oat and alfalfa hay this week along with a donation of a ton of grass hay. Oat hay is selling for about $120.00 per ton and Alfalfa hay at $150.00 per ton. 3 1/2 tons of Alfalfa will be delivered tomorrow and beginning on Wednesday about 500 bales of oat hay from our Middleton neighbor will be stored in our hay barn in Middleton. (One ton usually equals about 25 bales.) Our bill for the oat hay will be around $2,000.000. We will take about half of the oat bales to our Nampa facility to feed the horses there.
Thanks ahead of time for your generous financial gifts that make it possible for us to love our ranch kids. We will pay up front for the alfalfa being delivered tomorrow. Please prayerfully consider making a generous gift to help us pay for the oat hay. We will add a blog in a day or two concerning our amazing progress on the matching grant of $1,500 for fixing our water well and starting our fencing in Middleton. God blessed us with special 500 dollar gift for this matching fund from a dear family whom we love greatly.
