Bacillus thuringiensis, or Bt, is a group of crystallogenic bacillus that includes many variants. The bacteria can produce two major toxins, namely endotoxin (companion cell crystal) and exotoxin, which stop the pests from feeding, and finally the pests die from starvation and poisoning. The effect of exotoxin is slow and obvious during molting and metamorphosis. The effect of this drug is slow, and the effect can only be seen in about 2 days after the pest is fed, and the effective period is about 1 day, so it should be used 2 ~ 3 days earlier than conventional chemical agents, and the effect is better in the early age of the pest. It is safe for fish and bee, but highly toxic to silkworm...

By GO SEEDThere are no “quick fixes” when it comes to the health of soils, the benefits take more than overnight to show up. While it takes time and deliberate care to learn how to enhance resources holistically within your own system, the general principles are relatively simple and can be significant cost savings. “Soil is the natural capital of the land,” explains Dr Shannon Cappellazzi, GO Seed Director of Research. “By making the investment in soil health, not only are you making an impact on all of the downstream ecosystem services that are related to soil functions, you are also regenerating the land for continued agricultural production...
