The present disclosure relates to a method for building a farmland ecosystem with multiple mutual-benefit species in multiple habitats, and belongs to the technical field of agroecological environment. The present disclosure improves the resource utilization efficiency of the farmland ecosystem to the maximum extent, greatly reduces application of chemical fertilizer and pesticides, and reduces environmental damage and pollution. By means of different ecological niches of living things, a beneficial ecological service function is brought into play such that species in the farmland ecosystem can live in a suitable farmland microenvironment, competition for the same living space in the same place is avoided, and harmonious coexistence among the living things is realized; and food with high quality and a higher grain output value are provided.

A method for building a farmland ecosystem with multiple mutual-benefit species in multiple habitats is provided. The method includes: marking out an ecological field plot for planting crops in a farmland, arranging one to three earthworm breeding strip stack(s) at equal intervals, and marking out different planting areas; digging an ecological field ditch surrounding a periphery of the ecological field plot, and planting aquatic plants and breeding aquatic animals in the ecological field ditch; surrounding a periphery of the ecological field ditch with an ecological wide ridge, planting forage plants on a ridge surface of the ecological wide ridge, and planting arbors on an outer side of the ecological wide ridge; and arranging an ecological pond on a drainage side of a hole, wherein aquatic plants are planted in the ecological pond, and crustaceans are bred in the ecological pond.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, apparatuses and methods for regulation hormone production in mammals. Examples include but are not limited to by creating electro-magnetic wave emission pulse trains (photons) of individual color spectrums in sufficient intensity to drive hormone production in a mammal, using a characteristic frequency or pattern to minimize the required input power necessary to regulate hormone production, while also allowing for the monitoring of the power consumption and other variables of the system. By controlling the duty cycle, intensity, wavelength band and frequency of photon signals to a mammal, production of specific hormones can be regulated through the cycling between blue, green, yellow, near-red, far-red, infrared and ultra violet photon modulation.

The sex of embryos in eggs is influenced or controlled through the application of light having selected wavelengths in order to promote the development of embryos of a selected sex. An incubating device is provided having an interior cavity that can be sealed from an outside, and having a plurality of lighting elements disposed on each of a plurality of trays disposed in the interior cavity. Eggs are disposed on the trays, and pre-determined environmental conditions are applied to the interior cavity to promote hatching of the eggs. Concurrently with the application of the environmental conditions, the eggs are irradiated according to pre-determined lighting conditions. The lighting conditions include applying light having wavelengths substantially concentrated in selected ranges, such as light wavelengths within the 390-419 nm, 410-450 nm, 420-450 nm, 450-495 nm, or other narrow range.

The present invention provides a method for improving at least one phenotypic trait of interest in subsequent generation(s) of a population of individuals, preferably crop plants or cattle. Particularly, the method identifies the combination of at least three individuals that gives, upon subsequent intercrossing, the highest estimated probability of improving the at least one phenotypic trait of interest in the subsequent generation(s). Also provided is a computer-readable medium comprising instructions for performing the method.
