Methods and related systems for conditioning of granular fertilizers post-manufacture to reduce the generation of dust during handling, transport, and storage of the fertilizers, and/or to increase the agricultural benefits of the fertilizer. The method includes introducing a quantity of an aqueous conditioning agent, such as by spraying, to a plurality of fertilizer granules. The aqueous conditioning agent can include one or more beneficial agricultural and/or dedusting additives including one or more acidifying agents, one or more drying agents, one or more herbicides and/or pesticides, one or more chelating agents, one or more biological agents, and combinations thereof.

The present invention discloses biomass compositions for improving shelf life, increasing fruit water retention, and/or decreasing needle-drop in conifer species and methods for making the same. The composition comprises pasteurized microalgae selected from Chlorella, Aurantiochytrium, Scenedesmus, or any combination thereof.

A one-off fertilization method suitable for winter wheat in areas with less rainfall in spring includes the following steps: (1) carrying out, on a flat wheat block which is suitable for mechanized operations and after the harvest of preceding crops, a deep ploughing or a subsoiling in combination with a rotary tillage and a one-off fertilization for land preparation, without involving any top dressing in a later stage; and (2) carrying out a seeding operation by a wheat seeder, wherein for nitrogen fertilizer, according to the nitrogen release period of a controlled-release nitrogen fertilizer, one of the following application modes is determined: applying a polyurethane-coated controlled-release nitrogen fertilizer alone or a water-based resin-coated controlled-release nitrogen fertilizer special for winter wheat alone; or applying a water-based resin-coated controlled-release nitrogen fertilizer special for winter wheat in combination with 20% to 30% of a polyurethane-coated controlled-release nitrogen fertilizer.

One embodiment provides a modular green roof tray, house plant growth media and horticulture growth media, and a tree protection mat for weed and moisture control made from recycled disposable diapers. The growth medium and tree protection mat contain superabsorbent materials from diaper that can absorb waters and greatly reduce irrigation so to provide a drought resistant feature. One embodiment also provides a manufacturing process to perform 100% recycling of disposed diapers.
