How Grasslands Help Sequester Carbon in Canada

Getting Compost Right Matters When composting goes wrong, we lose valuable nitrogen and release ammonia and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere. These emissions not only reduce the nutrient value of your compost but also contribute to environmental challenges. Great Land Plus (GLP) helps to change that. By harnessing the power of beneficial microbes such as Lactobacillus, Acetobacter, and Yeast, GLP supports: ✅ Stabilisation of nitrogen during decomposition ✅ Reduction of ammonia volatilisation and nitrous oxide emissions ✅ Creates aerobic conditions for faster, cleaner composting The result? Nutrient-rich compost that supports healthy soils and minimises environmental impact. Terragen #Composting #GreatLandPlus

If anyone is interested in developing their skills in Black Soldier Fly, a quick thought based on my experience that might be helpful. 💬 Here are some tips for developing this skill: Organic waste recycling, Sustainable production, Soil health, Control pathogens

I am pleased to share that our research article, "Influence of Polyethylene Terephthalate and Polystyrene Microplastics on Microbial Dynamics in Rice Straw Composting,” has been published in Environmental Processes (Springer Nature). Publication link: https://lnkd.in/gyqrpCRC This study provides important insights into how microplastics affect microbial communities, humification, and compost quality, influencing soil health and sustainable waste management practices. I sincerely thank my supervisor, Dr. Abhishek Suresh Dhoble, for his guidance and support throughout this work. #Microplastics #Sustainability #EnvironmentalResearch #WasteManagement #Composting #SoilHealth #Microbiome #Biodegradation #SDGs

High Quality Biochar with good particle morphology and abrasion resistance is an important tool for environmental remediation. Please find below the results from a recent study on PFAS and Estrone remediation by Wonderchar PecanChar from water sources conducted by the University of Illinois. Made from 100% Recycled Pecan Shell and starting at $0.20/lbs with a high surface area and high potential area of coverage, Pecan Shell Biochar is an economical option for cleaning up Organic Contamination from the environment.

The way we grow food is changing. Many of the synthetic chemicals that farmers and growers relied on are being phased out or no longer work as efficiently as they used to. Our soils offer solutions - microbes that have evolved over millions of years to combat pests in the ground. However, finding the right microbe with the ability to replace synthetic chemicals has relied on chance.

🌱 Can maize yield more while cutting greenhouse gas emissions? Researchers found that balancing nitrogen fertilization with chemical regulation not only improved root strength and grain development but also cut greenhouse gas emissions under high-density planting. 🌍 This integrated approach could redefine eco-efficient maize cultivation for a sustainable future. 🌱 📗 Boosting Maize Yield and Mitigating Greenhouse Gas Emissions Through Synergistic Nitrogen and Chemical Regulation by Optimizing Roots and Developing Grains Under High-Density Planting in Northeast China ✍️ Xiaoming Liu et al. 🔗 Discover the full study here: https://brnw.ch/21wWOcA #NitrogenUseEfficiency #MaizeProduction #Sustainability #GreenAgriculture #ClimateResilience

📩It is not the right practice to intervene with the harmful bacteria in the greenhouse by pouring bleach water into the soil. When bleach is spilled, beneficial bacteria are also destroyed in addition to harmful bacteria. Instead, harmful bacteria can be eliminated by completely covering the soil with a solarization film. Also, chemicals reduce the quality of the soil and the yield. #vatanplastik #innovation #development #researchanddevelopment #greenhouses #sarparslan

Rinsing biochar can ruin its ability to clean toxic lead from water: A new study finds that rinsing biochar removes dissolved organics - the key to trapping toxic lead and cleaning contaminated water. #EarthDotCom #EarthSnap #Earth

Turning Waste Into a Solution Most people see maize cobs as farm waste something to throw away after harvest. But in my research, I’ve come to see them differently. When treated properly, maize cobs can act like tiny natural sponges, helping to trap and remove harmful chemicals such as pesticides from water and soil. In my project, I used maize cob as an adsorbent a material that attracts and holds onto toxic substances like endosulfan. Here’s the simple idea: instead of letting pollutants stay in the environment, we let the maize cob hold them. It’s cheap, available everywhere, and completely natural. With the right treatment, its porous structure and surface chemistry make it surprisingly effective at cleaning up chemical residues. For me, this research wasn't just about lab work. It’s about turning waste into value using what we already have to protect what we can’t replace: our soil, our water, and our health. It’s amazing how something as ordinary as a corn cob can become part of a bigger environmental solution. 🌍 #Sustainability #EnvironmentalScience #Research #WasteToWealth #GreenInnovation
