🐝Bees and other pollinators make enormous contributions to the world’s agriculture, 🐝While the plants themselves will survive, their yields may drop by as much as 90% without pollination. This is especially critical considering that 75% of all crops have some dependence on pollinators, 🐝Agronomists recognize that the most effective, resilient approach to managing pollination requires integrating a diversity of wild species with managed pollinators such as honey bees, 🍯 🍯 #gpi2050 #forests #sustainability #ecosystem

Regenerative Ag or sustainability is nothing new to successful potato growers. Being good stewards of the land, incorporating crop rotation, cover crops, IPM strategies, managing fertility rates, and managing water usage are some of the sustainable practices that successful growers have been doing for years. Envita SC, from Azotic Technologies Ltd., is a great way to incorporate naturally occurring nitrogen into the potato grower’s management practices. Learn how Azotic is working closely with growers and processors to demonstrate the value of Envita SC while expanding third-party research to include nitrogen reduction studies in potatoes.

Why Biofertilizers Are a Game-Changer for Soil Health 🌱 Soil health is the foundation of every farm. 🌾 Without healthy soil, crops can’t thrive—and without crops, we can’t sustain the growing global population. That’s where biofertilizers come in! 🔬 What makes biofertilizers so effective? They fix nitrogen, making it available for plant uptake. They enhance nutrient absorption and decompose organic matter. They promote a healthy microbial community, improving soil fertility and structure. The result? Higher yields and healthier crops, all while improving long-term soil health for future generations. Farmers around the world are discovering the power of biofertilizers—are you ready to take the leap? #SoilHealth #Biofertilizers #SustainableFarming #RegenerativeAgriculture #Agronomy #FarmingInnovation
