A transport system can include a first chamber having a body that is configured to fully enclose a biodegradable container placed within the first chamber, the biodegradable container having food waste therein, and the biodegradable container being sealed from the ambient environment, and a disinfection system being configured to disinfect an object placed within the body. The transport system can include a second chamber having a composting system, the composting system being configured to begin to compost an object placed within the second chamber, and an enclosure that houses the first chamber and the second chamber. The first chamber, and the second chamber can be configured to be placed within a cargo space of a vehicle.

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.

The present disclosure provides a hydroseeding substrate comprising primary solids from an anaerobic digester, a cover composition comprising bentonite clay and a water-dispersible polymer or starch, and a surface-treated hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC). The primary solids may comprise fibrous solids from dairy, poultry, hog, or cattle waste. The water-dispersible polymer may include one or more cellulose derivatives. The surface-treated HPMC may be present in an amount of 0.1 to 20 weight percent of the substrate. The hydroseeding substrate may further include a fertilizer and a soil adjuvant. The disclosure also provides a method of producing a dissolvable fertilizer package and the resulting package, comprising a dried mixture of primary solids from an anaerobic digester and nutrients contained within a tube formed from a polyvinyl alcohol film that is 85-90% hydrolyzed.

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.

The present invention relates to methods and compositions for a fertilizer pouch comprised of hot water soluble polyvinyl alcohol. Methods and compositions for reducing leached nutrients are also provided including but not limited to: Iron, Manganese, Copper, Bicarbonate, Zinc, Phosphorus, Molybdenum, Ammonia, Nitrogen, Calcium, Potassium, Sulfate, Magnesium, Sodium, Chloride, Inorganic Nitrogen, and Total Nitrogen. Further, methods and compositions for treating a plant are provided.

Proposed is a pod and a plant cultivation apparatus having the pod of the present disclosure. In the pod, cultivation preparation is completed simply by removing a package that covers an upper portion of a container constituting the pod and seating the pod on the plant cultivation apparatus. Accordingly, even a user who does not have background knowledge of plant cultivation easily cultivate plants.
