NEW VIDEO: Achieving Uniform Germination & Flowering in Petunia Production - https://lnkd.in/gCSHGT7u As we’ve discussed in other Tech On Demand videos and podcasts, the key to successfully producing high quality crops often starts at the very beginning. How you and your team approach the earliest stages of germination and propagation sets the stage for uniformity down the line. We’re pleased to welcome back frequent guest Dr. Will Healy. Will recently retired as Senior Manager of Ball’s technical services group but continues to think about ways to share his knowledge and decades of experience working with growers of all shapes and sizes. This time, he's here to focus on seed-raised petunias. Will begins by explaining the germination process, defining terms and talking about the importance of melting the coating on pelleted seeds (like petunias). After establishing the importance of proper moisture management melt pellets effectively, he digs deeper into flat filling and seeding best practices including properly centering the seed in each cell and NOT BURYING PETUNIA SEED, which can be more challenging than it sounds. Then the discussion turns to building a strong root system and avoiding “root running” or failure to root. As cotyledons begin to emerge, attention must be paid to the goal of achieving uniform petunia stands and again, it comes back to irrigation to prevent drying. By day 8 in the germination process, your petunias should be off to a strong start, setting the crop up for success. #greenhouse #horticulture #petunia #seed #growing #crops #germination #plugproduction #ballseed #techondemand #balltechteam #greenhousetechteam

Right now, from May to June, it's the main harvest season for Arnica in Spain. 𝐀𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬 as it boasts remarkable anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, making it an indispensable part of herbal remedies. However, due to climate change, grazing or agricultural monocultures, arnica is exposed to numerous threats. 🌼 Arnica montana atlantica finds its origin in Galicia. This variety of Arnica is known for its low allergy potential – the perfect match for our arnica products and our high-quality standards. Aligned with our sustainability commitment and our company philosophy is the interest in a more sustainable Arnica harvesting and cultivation. This is why we source the arnica flowers for our products through controlled wild harvesting. In a pilot project, we developed innovative cultivation methods, set up sustainability rules and guideline-documents to ensure the sustainable planting and harvesting of future generations of Arnica Montana Atlantica. 🌾 🌿 "The cultivation of Arnica is of great importance to us – in terms of sustainability and raw material quality. Therefore, we will continue to work with full force towards its success.“ (Dr. Andrea Lutz-Röder Project Manager and Head of Laboratory Services at Kneipp) 🌍 After harvesting, the flowers are transported to Germany, where our partner Kräuter Mix GmbH prepares them for further processing. Their skilled team ensures precise cutting before handing them over to Kneipp. From there, the cut flowers undergo the maceration process, where their valuable ingredients infuse into oil – this resulting oil extract forms the basis of Kneipp's Arnica products. 🧪 Let's cherish nature's gifts together and ensure their preservation.  #Kneipp #Arnica #SustainabilityJourney 

This is the FROST Olive project, funded in the 2nd Call for SMEs of the #GEN4OLIVE project. We are thrilled to announce its successful completion by @Domaine Svanidze LLC. Over the past year, they have achieved significant breakthroughs in breeding cold-resistant olive varieties by combining the best traits of cultivars like “Arbequina” and “Arbosana”. Join Nika Markozashvili as he discusses these results and their implications for sustainable and superior-quality olive oil production. Check this video to see the results of this journey towards innovation in agriculture 🌿🎉 https://lnkd.in/deERBD9z For more information check here 👇🏻 https://lnkd.in/d2TNE7z9 #SustainableAgriculture #Innovation #oliveoil #breeding #EU #GEN4OLIVE #Europe #H2020 #bioeconomy #biotech #agriculture #olive #climatechange #opencall #cascadefunding #AgricultureInnovation #SustainableFarming #OliveCultivation

Last week, a Field Day was organized in Peru to showcase the impressive ARRA Fire Crunch™ grape variety. The response in Peru has been very positive, with enthusiastic growers and attention from key industry players. Led by Karl Conrads, founder, and CEO of Grapasa, the South American representative for ARRA™ varieties, the Field Day attracted general managers and farm leaders from top producers and exporters. Thanks to its exceptional eating quality, described as "extraordinary crunchiness" and a "brilliant red color", ARRA Fire Crunch is making a mark in Peru. In the challenging agricultural conditions of Piura, ARRA Fire Crunch™ has demonstrated impressive fertility, showcasing resilience. Characterized by a strong and green rachis, ease of cultivation, excellent berry size (24-26 mm) and weight (averaging 10.5 g, about 3 g more than other varieties of comparable size), ARRA Fire Crunch™ is emerging as a standout grape variety. #arraredfactor #arravarieties

Colombia 🇨🇴 is the third most biodiverse country on the planet, after Brazil 🇧🇷 and Indonesia 🇮🇩 Colombia is the country with the greatest diversity of birds, orchids and butterflies. Colombia is the country with the second highest diversity of amphibians, freshwater fish, reptiles, palms and plants in general. Colombia is the country with the fifth highest diversity of mammals. 📊and of course Colombia has the third most exported fruit, the Tahitian Sour Lime. We will see the data for 2024, and hopefully we will be in second place or why not first.

New WWF & Monitor Conservation Research Society collaborative study highlights significant trade of dried tokay geckos in Hong Kong #traditionalmedicine outlets; 37% of surveyed shops openly sold tokay geckos, estimating that around 15,000 geckos are offered for sale in #hongkong daily, with a total retail value of approximately USD180,000. Tokay #geckos are heavily traded internationally, mainly for #TCM. Concerns on sustainability due to potential illegal imports from Southeast Asia and conflicting origins reported by shop owners. Study calls for increased vigilance, thorough investigations, and to reduce the demand for tokay gecko products through regulatory measures and public awareness campaigns. “Illegal and unsustainable trade is an enormous threat to many of the world’s lesser-known species such as the tokay gecko,” said Dr Chris R. Shepherd, Executive Director of Monitor Conservation Research Society. “More effort is needed to prevent bogus captive breeding and other forms of fraud that facilitate the illegal trade in this species.” #illegalwildlifetrade #wildlifetrade #wildlifeconservation #conservation https://lnkd.in/gAGX4vaW
