A novel approach for transforming pest management practices is currently gaining momentum in Europe: pesticide-free, non-organic production systems. These involve the non-use of pesticides in parts of crop rotations or entire crop rotations. More info about this 'middle way' can be found in a recent study published in Nature Plants that examines real-world examples of such systems. https://lnkd.in/enH2apFV #PesticideFree #SustainableAgriculture #Farmers #AgriculturalInnovation #FarmingCommunity #AgTech #EcoFriendlyFarming #GlobalAgriculture #FoodSecurity #Collaboration #Research #EconomicViability #FutureFarming #GreenSolutions #Biodiversity #Partnerships

𝗕𝗲𝗲-𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀: The increasing global demand for plant-based foods makes the use of pesticides necessary in order to protect crops from pests and ensure crop yields. However, there is one major disadvantage: among others, the widespread use of pesticides has led to a considerable reduction in insect populations in the past. The decline in wild bees, which make a significant contribution to pollination and are therefore essential for agricultural yields, is particularly worrying.

BACTERIAL INFECTIONS NEGATIVELY IMPACT AGRICULTURE Did you know that specific “bad” or “undesirable” bacteria can be detected and eliminated with bacteriophage (phage) to improve soil and water quality, promote growth and yield? Bacteriophage are a natural alternative to traditional and unfavorable chemical pesticides and antibiotics. In fact, the phage you need to improve your agricultural conditions are all around you...literally! Check out the informational poster describing 10 roles of bacteriophages in agriculture. Thoughts? Ideas?

"There is an urgent need to accelerate the pace of change to embrace more #sustainablefarming practices." writes NIAB's CEO and Director Mario Caccamo. "We need to produce more and better #food, with less pesticides and fertilisers, while improving soil health and responding to #climate and #biodiversity goals. To meet these objectives, we need to address the UK’s funding gap in applied agriculture-related #research. This also calls for a strategic review of whether the current structure of the country’s applied crop science capabilities is fit-for-purpose." https://lnkd.in/ebtGgafn

Did you know that positive pressure is a key innovation in greenhouse management? 🚀 Positive pressure has become a revolutionary solution for maintaining the health and productivity of greenhouse crops. By maintaining an air pressure higher than that outside, a controlled environment is created that prevents the entry of insects, thus protecting plants from possible pests without the need to resort to chemical pesticides. 🦟❌ Advantages of Positive Pressure in Greenhouses: • Effective Insect Protection: The air barrier acts as a shield, keeping insects out and ensuring plants grow in a safe, pest-free environment. • Improved Crop Health: By reducing the need for pesticides, more natural and healthy plant growth is promoted, resulting in higher quality products. At J.Huete International we are implementing positive pressure projects in greenhouses around the world, demonstrating our experience and commitment to innovation in agriculture. 🌍🔬 Do you want to know more about how positive pressure can transform your greenhouse production? 🎥👇 Watch our explanatory video and discover all the benefits! #Agriculture #Innovation #AgBusiness #AgTech #Greenhouses #Horticulture
