The present invention relates to the use of an inorganic phosphor to increase the yield of corn or soy cultivation promoted by the use of at least one fungicide, said inorganic phosphor exhibiting: a maximum in the emission spectrum in the range of wavelengths between 400 nm and 500 nm; an absorption Abs in the visible range which is equal to or less than 15.0%, preferably equal to or less than 10.0%, even more particularly equal to or less than 3.0%; and an internal quantum efficiency (IQE) measured in the range of wavelengths between 300 nm and 410 nm which is equal to or greater than 50.0%, more particularly greater than 75.0%, even more particularly greater than 90.0%.

A method includes receiving, by the treatment system, during operation in an agricultural environment, one or more images comprising one or more agricultural objects in the agricultural environment, identifying, in real-time, one or more objects of interest from the one or more agricultural objects by analyzing the one or more images, wherein the analyzing results in a first object being identified as belonging to one or more target objects and a second object being identified as not belonging to the one or more target objects, logging one or more results of the identification of each of the one or more objects of interest and a corresponding treatment decision; and activating the treatment mechanism to treat the one or more target objects.

A synthetic microbial community (SynCom) agricultural crop fertilizer composition comprises a microbial stabilizing buffer and bacterial strains configured to mimic the natural diversity of the bacterial community found in the crop phyllosphere microbiome, but at a reduced complexity, yet sufficient to effectively provide increased plant productivity and/or disease protection.

A plant growth promoter production method includes: preparing a modified cyanobacterium in which a function of a protein involved in binding between an outer membrane and a cell wall of cyanobacterium is suppressed or lost; and causing the modified cyanobacteria to secrete a secretion involved in promoting growth of a plant.

A liquid cleaning and watering system for living plants rests on a surface covered by a non-porous material. A plate layer covering the non-porous layer has two or more layers, each layer having runners arranged in a grid. The grid of each successive layer is offset at an angle with respect to the grid of a previous layer. An upper layer covers the plate layer and has a plurality of holes for the passage of liquids into the liquid cleaning system. As the living plants are watered or cleaned, excess liquids containing water and oils that were excreted by the living plants enter the liquid cleaning system through the holes, the liquid traverses the grid layers, flowing towards a drain. Contaminants within the liquid collect within the grid of the layers of the plate layer for later disposal.

The present disclosure relates to an LED lighting device for strawberry seedling raising.

The LED lighting device for strawberry seedling raising according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a light emitting unit composed of a first light emitting part composed of a red region wavelength emission LED and a blue region wavelength emission LED and a second light emitting part composed of the red region wavelength emission LED and an infrared region wavelength emission LED; and a control part for controlling the light emitting unit to manage a strawberry seedling raising, and controlling each LED included in the first light emitting part or the second light emitting part to be turned on/off based on a preset seedling raising mode.

The present disclosure provides consortia of microbes that are functionally optimized for nitrogen fixation and deliver such to plants in a targeted, efficient, and environmentally sustainable manner. The microbes within the consortium differ in nutrient utilization, temporal occupation, oxygen adaptability, and/or spatial occupation, which enables the microbes to deliver nitrogen to a cereal plant in a spatially targeted (e.g. rhizospheric) and temporally targeted (e.g. during advantageous stages of plant's life cycle) manner. The present disclosure also provides methods of creating a synthetic composition of microbes and methods of using compositions of microbes to fix atmospheric nitrogen and deliver such to a crop.
