Three Precise Recommendations to Improve Agricultural Soil Quality
Soils are the source of food, which sustains life on Earth. As we can see, they play a very important role in global agricultural production. For this reason, every year efforts are made to improve its quality; because a healthy soil is the crucial ally of optimal productions.
Farmland must:
1. Possess all the nutrients necessary for plant growth.
2. Provide support to keep...

The Importance of Amino Acids in Agriculture
It is an evidence that biostimulants for plants are on the rise and have come to the agricultural sector to stay, since this class of products has many benefits to contribute to agriculture and, in addition, they are respectful with the environment. In today’s post, we are going to specify the types of biostimulants in agriculture and we are going to explain each of...

Who is Mainly Responsible for Greenhouse Gas Emissions?
Where and from which sectors does the greatest amount of Greenhouse Gases, a key factor in Climate Change, originate? Report by Eng. Gustavo Oliverio of the Producir Conservando Foundation.
It is surprising to see how the issue of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions linked to climate change and a direct connection with livestock activities, meat or dairy production is raised on...

Pesticide Poisoning of Humans
The estimates of poisonings and deaths made by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations over three decades dramatically reflect the growing tragedy that, for millions of people, particularly in southern countries, has signified the agricultural production model known as the green revolution. This crisis is deepening under the so-called new green...

Agricultural Applications of Efficient Microorganisms
For the action of microorganisms to be efficient, environmental requirements must be known, including humidity, temperature and pH. There is a greater diversity of microorganisms in environments with a neutral pH between values of 6 to 8 and with temperatures between 15-45°C (50-113°F). The reproduction or inoculation of ME is carried out under anaerobic fermentation....

Organic Fertilizers Vs Chemical Fertilizers
Plants and crops need nutrients for their proper development and optimal crop performance. These nutrients are taken from the air through the leaves (CO2 and O2) and, mainly, from the soil through the roots (macronutrients: N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S and micronutrients: Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, B…). For a soil or substrate to have and provide all the nutrients that the plant needs, it is...
