A compost and planting system and a method thereof are disclosed, wherein a sewage produced from the organic waste contained in a composting container during decomposition is drained into circulation hubs positioned below a filtering bottom of a composter arrangement and flows into an air-water flowing chamber of an air-water source arrangement through liquid slots of a plurality of circulation hubs positioned in the air-water flowing chamber. A liquid is fed into the air-water flowing chamber of the air-water source arrangement via a liquid inlet to carry the sewage to flow in a lower portion of the air-water flowing chamber while an upper portion of the air-water flowing chamber is maintained to have a flow of air, such that the liquid in the lower portion of the air-water flowing chamber enters the circulation hubs through the liquid slots thereof to be absorbed by the planting soil contained in a soil tub and the circulation hubs positioned below the soil tub.

An implement having a frame and a soil moving implement that is attached to the frame. The soil moving implement is disposed in a row between plants for moving soil from between rows of plants to at least the rhizosphere of the plants to cover fluid that is deposited in the rhizosphere.

A system and a method for automation of agricultural treatments. The system receives a set of instructions for the agricultural treatment. The set of instructions may include a type of agricultural treatment, and a target location. Further, the system may determine chemical parameters including a composition, a dosage, and a quantity of a chemical required for the agricultural treatment. Further, the system may be configured to navigate the robot to the target location. Further, the system may detect a spraying section based on the type of agricultural treatment. Subsequently, the system may determine a speed of the robot, a proximity of the robot to the spraying section, and a rate of chemical flow. Further, the system may be configured to control the robot. Finally, the system may be configured to dispense the chemical using a spraying equipment.

A drone for spraying liquid over field crop includes: a frame with a slender rigid beam in the middle and two base structures at the two ends, a rigid tube with an array of nozzles on elongated stems and the rigid tube is suspended below the beam structure with retractable wires, at least three propellers on motors with arms that are rotatably mounted to each of the two base structures of the frame, a power source, at least one distance detector for measuring height, an antenna for communication, an electronic control system to operate motors and sensors, a container for a liquid material and electronic valve to allow liquid in the container to be transferred and sprayed from the nozzles, and a remote controller. The drone is intended to spray liquid over a wide strip of the field with high efficiency, precision, and safety and reduced drift of sprays.

A modular system includes a hub and a set of modules removably coupled to the hub. The modules are physically coupled to the frame relative to each other so that each module can operate with respect to a different row of a field. An individual module includes a sensor for capturing field measurement data of individual plants along a row as the modular system moves through the geographic region. An individual module further includes a treatment mechanism for applying a treatment to the individual plants of the row based on the field measurement data before the modular system passes by the individual plants. An individual module further includes a computing device that determines the treatment based on the field measurement data and communicates data to the hub. The hub is communicatively coupled to the modules, so that it may exchange data between the modules and with a remote computing system.

This invention discloses a method for treating sand or sandy soil in desert or desertified land, comprising spreading water and a solid organic substance in any order or by directly spreading an adhesive and cohesive solution containing the solid organic substance onto the surface of desert or desertified land, and then stirring the solution containing the solid organic substance or mixing water and the solid organic substance with sand on the surface of desert or desertified land in a uniform way by a stirring device to finally form a modified sand material. This sand treatment method can be directly implemented on the surface of desert or desertified land without transporting and discharging the mixture onto the surface of desert or desertified land, and thus saving cost and time.

Liquid nutrients are applied to a first group of rows of standing crops by pulling a drag hose from a reel located at one end of a field and between two crop rows with the drag hose connected to an applicator pulled by a tractor or track units. The hose provides a liquid supply to the applicator. At the opposite end of the field, the applicator is turned 180, and in one embodiment, a boom pivots to project from one end of the applicator to the drag hose. The applicator returns down adjacent crop rows back to the first end of the field with the applicator connected to the drag hose while the reel simultaneously retracts the drag hose between the two crop rows. The reel is moved axially to a third group of crop rows along with the applicator, and the steps are repeated.

A composition and method for making microalgae pre-charged biochar for use in soil is disclosed. The composition comprises raw biochar and a liquid microalgae composition, wherein the liquid microalgae composition comprises dead pasteurized Chlorella microalgae cells and nutrients that are beneficial to the soil; such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, and sodium. The raw biochar and liquid microalgae composition are combined to create a pre-charging mixture, which is then incubated for between 12-24 hours, and dried. The pre-charged biochar is then buried within the vicinity of a fruiting plant, seedling, or seed; between approximately 2-6 deep within the soil.

Described herein are implements and applicators for placement of fluid applications with respect to agricultural plants of agricultural fields. In one embodiment, a fluid applicator for applying fluids to plants in rows in a field includes a frame, a coulter connected to the frame and disposed to open a trench between the rows of plants, and at least one application member connected to the frame or to the coulter and disposed to apply fluid to a rhizosphere of the plants.

Described herein are implements and application units for placement of fluid applications with respect to agricultural plants of agricultural fields. In one embodiment, an application unit includes a frame to be positioned in operation between two rows of plants and a plurality of flexible members coupled to the frame in operation such that the plurality of flexible members guide a lateral position of the frame to be approximately equidistant from the two rows of plants based upon whether at least one flexible member of the plurality of flexible members contacts one or more plants of the two rows of plants. The plurality of flexible members include a plurality of fluid outlets for spraying crop input in close proximity to the rows of plants.
