A seed coated with a seed grind, and optionally a source of sugar, a source of bicarbonate, and/or a source of fertilizer nutrient to supply plant roots with additional uptake-available carbon and energy to promote rapid growth. A method of coating seeds with the coating and a method of growing plants from the coated seed.

The present invention provides compositions comprising chitooligosaccharides, methods for preparation and use thereof, including for example methods of stimulating the production of significant substances in plants. Functional Activated Nano Vacc-Fertiliceutical for Plant is used to stimulate significant substance production in plant (foliage plant, fruit tree, and flowering plant).

Systems and methods for providing navigation to a vehicle may include receiving observation data from one or more sensors of the vehicle, generating projection data corresponding to the one or more traffic participants based on the observation data for each time step within a time period, and predicting interactions between the vehicle, the one or more traffic participants, and the one or more obstacles, based on the projection data of the one or more traffic participants. The systems and methods may further include determining a set of actions by the vehicle corresponding to a probability of the vehicle safely arriving at a target location based on the predicted interactions, and selecting one or more actions from the set of actions and provide the one or more actions to a navigation system of the vehicle, wherein the navigation system uses the navigation data to provide navigation instructions to the vehicle.

Disclosed is a stable fertilizer composition including: a sulfur-containing compound; and a reaction product of a potassium-containing compound and a humectant selected from the group consisting of polyhydric alcohols, esters of polyhydric alcohols, polyalkylene glycols, and hydroxylated carboxylic acids. One version of the fertilizer composition also includes a nitrogen-containing compound; a phosphorous-containing compound; and at least one more additional macronutrient or micronutrient. The macronutrient may be selected from the group consisting of calcium and magnesium, and the micronutrient may be selected from the group consisting of zinc, manganese, iron, copper, calcium, magnesium, cobalt, boron, nickel, and molybdenum. The fertilizer composition may be essentially free of chelated metals and chelated metal salts. Methods of using a solution of the fertilizer composition for supplying plant nutrients to a plant are also disclosed.

A biofertilizer is disclosed that include specific formulations of algae biomass and a mycorrhizal fungus. This biofertilizer may be a useful way of utilizing algae biomass created for carbon sequestration purposes for a productive agricultural purpose. The combination of algae biomass and mycorrhizal fungus may provide advantageous effects to a crop, as the algae may be a nutrient source for both the crop itself and also for the mycorrhizal fungus that allows the fungus to grow and form a mycorrhizal relationship with the root system of the crop. The biofertilizer may be pelletized with rice hull filler and have a specific range of moisture content, so as to be compatible to agricultural fertilizer delivery equipment. Methods of manufacturing the pelletize biofertilizer are also provided.

The present invention relates to a process, methods and materials for generating fertilizers from seawater resources, especially in conjunction with seawater desalination plants. Here, we demonstrate that varying compositions of fertilizers such as nitrogen/potassium, nitrogen/phosphorus/potassium, nitrogen/potassium/sulfur, and nitrogen/phosphorus/potassium/sulfur, potassium/sulfur, potassium along with micro and secondary nutrients can directly be generated as part of the extraction process to meet the requirements of both starter and sustained phases of plant growth.
