Start Your Seeds Off Right in a Germination Chamber
With the time spent meticulously seeding each plug not to mention the space constraints in any seedling set-up, it's imperative that you get enough healthy seedlings out of each tray to stay on schedule.
How Deep Flow Technique (DFT) Hydroponic Systems Work
The Deep Flow Technique (DFT) is similar to two other hydroponic systems, but it ultimately works in it's own way. In this article, you'll learn how DFT hydroponic systems grow crops.
Camera System Minimizes Health Risks When Consuming Seafood Products
Stuttgart-based technet GmbH has developed a system that uses a USB 3 uEye CP industrial camera from IDS to capture the contours and surface parameters of the parasites and determines the curvature energies of individual larvae from these data.
Food Industry Automation: Improving Efficiency, Quality Control, and Traceability
Automation can make a profound difference in the processes that are involved in getting food from the field to the grocery store, and onto the tables of millions of people. Automation can make a positive difference in food production, especially during the time of COVID-19.
How Variable Rate Swath Control Helps the Farmer
Using GPS technology, farmers can control the variable swath of a field. Swath control is where a farmer controls the size of the swath a certain piece of equipment takes through the field.
