Beyond Soil: Exploring the Wonders of Hydroponic Agriculture

Five replicate columns were prepared and analyzed for each treatment. Metal concentrations for all three ENMs are reported as ionic, although neither CeO2 nor TiO2 were expected to dissolve to a significant degree under the conditions used in this experiment. TiO2 is known to be highly insoluble in water and CeO2 is similarly insoluble at …

Data were acquired with a MTP DAS-1 resistivity meter with 8 potential channels

To minimize these ambiguities and to develop a more robust approach for non-invasive in-situ root imaging, we aim to develop iCSD inversion code that does not rely on prior assumptions on root architecture and function and use rhizotron experiments to validate the iCSD approach.The phrase “inversion of Current Source Density” was introduced by Łęski et al. to …

Extension workers are often expected to cover large areas with limited staff

Although farmers’ trust and understanding surely influences demand for weather index insurance, resolving these concerns has not proven sufficient to solve the demand issues that beset this financial product. Demand for insurance does increase when farmers observe payouts over time ; receiving payouts in the previous year has a strong effect on increasing subsequent demand, increasing …
