The present disclosure relates to methods of verifying enhanced rock weathering using immobile trace elements found within a mineral amendment. Further disclosed are mineral amendments that enable enhanced rock weathering.

A method for using treated biochar to reduce the overall environmental impact of farming and minimize the carbon footprint of farms is provided. The method comprising engaging in one or more of the following practices: (1) combining treated biochar with feed or using biochar as feed for animals to reduce methane from enteric fermentation and increase animal health and nutrition; (2) combining treated biochar with compost, animal bedding or manure piles to reduce odor and increase nutrient retention; (3) applying treated biochar to lagoons to reduce odor and treat water; (4) applying treated biochar to pastures to increase pasture health; (5) applying treated biochar to crops to increase crop productivity, healthier roots and prevent fertilizer leaching; and (6) using the carbon negativity of a produced biochar to reduce the overall farm or ranch carbon footprint.

The present invention relates to a method for inducing ground consolidation. The method comprises providing a first chamber in a first hole in the ground, and a second chamber in a second hole in the ground, the first and second chambers being liquid-impermeable and electrically conductive; providing a first electrolytic fluid in the first chamber and a second electrolytic fluid in the second chamber; placing at least a first electrode in the first chamber, and at least a second electrode in the second chamber, the first and second electrodes being operatively connected to a power supply; feeding consolidation fluids into the ground for feeding reactants of a consolidation process, and catalysers for the reactants into the ground; and applying to the first and second electrodes an electric current. The current causes the first electrode to operate as an anode and the second electrode to operate as a cathode thereby inducing electric polarization in the ground to cause the reactants and catalysers to cross paths to thereby cause consolidation of the ground.

Multi-functional biological compositions are provided for reducing hydric stress and promoting growth in cultivated plants, for use as an inoculant, as a soil conditioner, as a biostimulant, for phosphorus solubilization and for bioremediation in agricultural areas. In particular, compositions containing mixtures of additives and excipients are provided having at least 2 (two) or more species of Bacillus or two or more strains of a single species, or the mutants thereof, concomitantly with additives and excipients, in biological compositions with properties for reducing hydric stress and promoting growth in cultivated plants, for use as an inoculant, as a biological soil conditioner, as a biostimulant, for phosphorus stabilization and for bioremediation in agricultural areas, added to the coating/encrustation used in industrial or non-industrial seed treatment, applied in furrows, using a guided boom or by other application means.
