The present disclosure relates to an article for enriching soil fertility, a method of manufacturing the same and a method of enriching soil fertility. The article comprising: a plurality of containers, each having a respective fluid-permeable membrane and each containing one or more fertilizers. At least one of permeabilities of the membranes and contents of the one or more fertilizers are selected to control a release of the fertilizers from the containers.

Provided is a cultivating material composition including a cultivating substrate and a bio-cellulose film, wherein the bio-cellulose film is in contact with the cultivating substrate, such that highly increased yield and quality of crops, a shorter harvest period, less water and nutrient sources, and low cost can be achieved.

The present disclosure relates to an article for enriching soil fertility, a method of manufacturing the same and a method of enriching soil fertility. The article comprising a container comprising a fluid-permeable membrane, a fertilizer disposed in the container and a moisture regulator disposed in the container. The moisture regulator is configured to repeatedly absorb moisture from outside the container and release the absorbed moisture into a space within the container based on a moisture gradient existing between the space within the container and outside the container, to control a release of the fertilizer from the container through the membrane. The moisture regulator is further configured to form a base in the space within the container to harbor moisture-sensitive microbes, the microbes being transferable through the membrane based on the moisture gradient.

Compositions of clay materials intercalated with urea and/or another material or combination of materials are discussed. For example, the composition may comprise from about 20% to about 65% by weight intercalated urea, with respect to the total weight of the composition. Intercalation may be achieved, for example, by grinding the clay particles with one or more other materials, such that the other material(s) are intercalated into the clay particles. The composition may be formed into pills formulated for controlled release of urea, e.g., for fertilizing soil.

Provided herein is technology relating to organic fertilizers and particularly, but not exclusively, to organic and/or biodegradable flocculants, methods of preparing organic fertilizers using an organic and/or biodegradable flocculant, and systems for treating water using an organic and/or biodegradable flocculant to prepare an organic fertilizer.

A composition is disclosed including combining a carbonate or bicarbonate compound, an acid, a biostimulant, a nutrient, and a pesticide. The composition may be processed into a tablet, powder, meal, pellets, or granules and produce effervescence when a liquid, such as water or a water-based liquid is mixed with the composition.

A water submersible controlled release fertilizer particle comprising: (i) a fertilizer core material; (ii) a polyurethane coating layer encapsulates the fertilizer core material; and (iii) a hydrophilic outer layer encapsulates the polyurethane coating layer wherein the hydrophilic outer layer dissolves when subjected to water.

A system for enhancement of crop production includes a triggerable seed support package. The triggerable seed support package has a payload including seed enhancement material, where the payload is configured to be released in response to a trigger.
