Redefining PAR: The Impact of Far-Red Photons on Photosynthesis and Horticultural Lighting
The effectiveness of far-red photons in driving photosynthesis means that technologies utilizing these photons, such as downshifting luminescent materials and fixtures that include far-red, should be reevaluated for their effectiveness as plant growth spectrum providers.
Semi-artificial Photosynthesis
Because biofuels are made from agricultural products, fuel production from such products implies the use of agricultural land and crops that can also be used for the production of food.
