Sol Organica has been a pioneer of regenerative agriculture in Nicaragua since 2007 🌎 🌱 Regenerative agriculture shifts food production from a carbon-intensive food system to regenerative, carbon-negative agriculture, by focusing on smallholder farms, intercropping, agroforestry, and micro-farming industries. This shift is producing a radical transformation of how, where, and when we grow our food with a greater expansion of the varieties of seeds grown and a new microclimate-based approach. A report from the UN stated that avoiding pesticides and herbicides through regenerative farming increased food security, and by increasing soil carbon, harvests produce greater yields and better nutrition. Visit our website to learn more about our impact and mission. ☀️ https://lnkd.in/evwnkSVn #solorganica #organicfruit #regenerativeorganic #regenerativeorganiccertified #regenerativeagriculture #bcorp #bcorporation #tropicalfruits #exoticfruits #driedfru #purees #IQF #wholesalefoods #nicaragua #dragonfruit #pitahaya #superfruits #smoothies #fairtrade #nongmo #regenerative #soilhealth

It's Agriculture Week in Saskatchewan! Saskatchewan is home to some of the world's most innovative and sustainable agricultural producers. A GIFS-commissioned study found that Saskatchewan’s carbon footprint to produce one tonne of canola is 67 percent lower than global competitors. Learn how they do it at gifs.ca/sustainableag.

Intercropping, the practice of growing two or more crops in proximity to one another, is a time-honored agricultural technique that offers numerous benefits. One of the most notable advantages of intercropping maize, beans, and squash is the ability to naturally suppress weeds. This method harnesses the unique characteristics of each plant to create a dense canopy that shades out unwanted vegetation, reducing the reliance on herbicides and manual weeding Weed Suppression Benefits: The dense canopy created by intercropping maize, beans, and squash shades out weeds, limiting their access to sunlight and resources. This reduces the competition between crops and weeds, allowing the main crops to thrive without the need for chemical herbicides or extensive manual weeding. By minimizing weed pressure, farmers can save time, resources, and labor while promoting a more sustainable agricultural system.

🌱 **Harnessing the Power of Innovation with Polyhouse Farming!** 🌍 At OMSWASTIK EXPORTS, we are committed to sustainable and innovative farming practices that enhance productivity and quality. Our investment in **polyhouse farming** is a testament to this commitment. Polyhouse farming allows us to create a controlled environment, ensuring that our crops receive the ideal conditions for growth, regardless of external weather conditions. This method not only boosts yield but also enables us to grow high-quality, pesticide-free produce year-round. By reducing the dependency on traditional farming cycles, we can supply fresh vegetables and fruits consistently, meeting the demands of global markets. Our focus on polyhouse farming also aligns with our mission to support environmentally friendly practices. By using less water and reducing chemical inputs, we contribute to a healthier planet while delivering superior products to our customers. Join us in embracing the future of agriculture. Together, we can cultivate a greener, more sustainable world. #PolyhouseFarming #SustainableAgriculture #InnovationInFarming #OrganicProduce #OMSExports #GlobalTrade #FreshProduce #EnvironmentFriendly

Farming could kickstart Britain’s economic revival A switch to regenerative, nature-friendly farming across Britain would lead to, not just higher profits for farmers, but a boost to the entire national economy. That’s the conclusion of a new study to be highlighted at this week’s LandAlive conference. The study, which looked at the impact of regenerative farming on a sample English county, showed how current high-input chemical methods, had held down farm profits and depressed wider economic growth. Freeing up nature’s productive potential by switching to sustainable methods would benefit the wider economy, the study found. Isn’t this the sustainable economic growth the Government’s been looking for? If so, why aren’t they doing more to help farmers adopt the new methods? Join the debate at LandAlive.

🤩✨Innovative farmers have discovered an eco-friendly method to manage weed growth in rice paddies using Panjin river crabs. ✨These crabs, also known as Chinese mitten crabs, are introduced into the rice fields where they feed on weeds and other aquatic plants, effectively acting as natural herbicides. ✨This method reduces the need for chemical herbicides, promoting a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach to agriculture. ✨The crabs not only control weeds but also aerate the soil with their burrowing activities, which can improve the overall health of the rice paddies. ✨Additionally, the crabs' presence in the fields helps control pest populations, further reducing the need for chemical interventions. ✨This practice aligns with organic farming principles and can enhance the biodiversity of the farming ecosystem. ✨Farmers can harvest the crabs along with their rice, providing an additional source of income. This symbiotic relationship between rice cultivation and crab farming exemplifies a harmonious approach to agriculture that benefits both the environment and the local economy.

A very effective and innovative approach.
