    7 Ways to Measure Soil Health Improvements

    By Laura Barrera

    Published Mar 7, 2019 

    Better Soil StabilityOne qualitative measure you can take to see how your soil health is improving is the Slake Test, also known as the Soil Stability Test. The Slake Test, the NRCS says, measures the stability of soil when exposed to rapid wetting, adding that soil stability serves as a “qualitative indicator of soil biological activity, energy flow and nutrient cycling. ”To perform the Slake Test, you’ll need two glass jars, wire mesh that can be hooked onto the glass jars, and a chunk of soil from your fields, as well as some soil from another area that can serve as a comparison... The Slake Test can help you see how stable your soils are currently and how much their aggregation improves as you continue cover cropping... For a visual on how the Slake Test is done, click here to watch a video of soil scientist Ray Archuleta using it...

    The Story of AgFuse

    By Pat Rogers

    Published Jul 16, 2018 

    In July of 2014, I sat in the audience on the last day of the InfoAg Conference in St Louis. It was my first major farm conference trip outside of somewhat local events that had been put on near my home in the Carolinas. Frankly, my mind was blown with this experience... In the future, we’ll also have the capacity to add classified ads, job postings, personalized event calendars and local marketing bids...

    The Tax Benefits of Conservation Easements

    By Tyler Davis

    Published Oct 6, 2019 

    Conservation easements have grown in popularity in recent years, partly due to the impactful tax benefits available to the donor. A conservation easement is a restriction on the use of land, voluntarily granted by the landowner to a conservation organization or to a government sponsored entity. The general rule for permanent conservation easement donations is that the property owner can take a charitable contribution tax deduction on their return for the difference in the fair market value of the land before the conservation easement and after the conservation easement... For simplicity, in our example we will assume there are no modifications)...

    Considerations Before Buying A Land For Your Farm Home

    By Corey Tyner

    Updated Jun 17, 2022 

    Instead of the rush and noise of city life, people are craving the quieter and slower pace of less populated areas... The property is cheaper outside of the city: but there’s a lot more to consider than just price... Is there a lake or river that touches the property? Is it near the wetlands or marshes? Consider how much work each plot of property will need: and if you'll be capable of doing it... Do You Mind Paying to Put In New Internet and Electricity Lines?Many areas don’t have any internet, electricity, water, or gas hookups... A Rural Home Is the Dream for ManyEscaping from the noise of city living and enjoying the serene peace of rural life can sound like a dream...

    #AgHistory This is one I think you will find interesting - the history of transportation costs, and the impact of the Eerie Canal on wheat flour prices in New York. From 1800-1840, most roads to market were little more than tracks through the woods, where the trees had been cleared but the stumps, a foot to a foot and a half high, remained. Imagine hauling a loaded wagon over this! Henry Carter Adams (Professor of economics at University of Michigan) wrote in 1899, it would take two ox teams 3 days to travel 25 miles. In Indiana, it cost 50 cents for every 100 pounds, per each 20 miles traveled. At these rates, corn could not be shipped more than 20 miles before it was grown at a loss. Wheat could not be profitably transported more than 50-75 miles. In 1825 things began to change with the opening of the Eerie canal. According to Israel D. Andrews in a report to the Secretary of the Treasury on the 'Trade of the Great Lakes and Rivers' "Previous to the opening of the canal, transportation from Lake Eerie to tide-water was such as to prevent all movement of merchandise" "The cost to transport from Buffalo to New York was $100/ton and took about 20 days at a cost of nearly 3 times the market value of wheat in New York, 6 times the value of corn, 12 times the value of oats", and far exceeded the value of most cured provisions. Because of the Eerie canal, western wheat was being used in New England by both farmers and 'city folks'. David Field, a historian for Berkshire County, Massachusetts, recorded in 1829 that the local cultivation of wheat and rye had diminished with the opening the Eerie canal, with more wheat being transported at cheaper cost into the county than what could be grown and transported out of it. Clearly, the market value of any agricultural commodity, and its availability to consumers, will always have transportation costs imbedded into the market value. As was demonstrated with cereal grains in New England, history shows us that when transportation costs exceed market value, then that commodity will eventually disappear form the market, or will never arrive in the first place. The New England Farmer printed in 1838-39 "If more fertile regions can supply our cities with grain at a cheaper rate than we can, let us not lament. We shall find full employment in furnishing what cannot be so well transported from a distance. Fresh meats, butter, hay and the small market vegetables must be supplied by the farmers of New England."

    Growth of tree species and sugarcane production in agroforestry systems

    Authors: BRAULIO O. CARON, ELVIS F. ELLI, ALEXANDRE BEHLING, ELDER ELOY, DENISE SCHMIDT, JOHN STOLZLE

    Journal Title: Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências

    ISSN: 0001-3765 (Print); 1678-2690 (Online)

    Publisher: Academia Brasileira de Ciências

    The appropriate choice of tree species and planting arrangement for use in agroforestry systems is very important in order to maximize productivity and sustainability. The aim of this study was to evaluate the growth of five tree species and its effect on sugarcane yields in different planting arrays in agroforestry systems. The study was conducted from 2007 to 2011 in the city of Frederico Westphalen, RS, Brazil. The five studied tree species were: guapuruvu (Schizolobium parahybae), bracatinga (Mimosa scabrella), canafístula (Peltophorum dubium), angico-vermelho (Parapiptadenia rigida) and eucalypt (Eucalyptus urophylla S.T. Blake x Eucalyptus grandis Hill ex Maiden). Root collar diameter, diameter at breast height, plant height and mean diameter of crown were evaluated for four years with an interval of 90 days between assessments. Yield data for sugarcane were collected in June 2009, 2010, and 2011. Eucalypt presented the greatest root collar diameter values, diameter at breast height, crown development, and plant height. Angico-vermelho, canafístula and eucalypt presented a higher growth in the strip system, while guapuruvu presented the greater growth in the line system. Bracatinga was not influenced by an arrangement in the agroforestry systems. Sugarcane presented greater production in the understory of angico and bracatinga.

    The Application of Mobile Edge Computing in Agricultural Water Monitoring System

    Authors: D H Fan and S Gao

    IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, Volume 191, conference

    The intelligent construction and development of traditional agricultural water production process has become an important pillar industry in China's coastal areas. With the application of IoT technology, the agricultural water monitoring process can manage the data collected by the sensor system in real time. In this paper, a data link management solution is proposed in combination with advanced Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) technology, which effectively realizes the sinking of business anchor points and greatly reduces the business response time. The practical application shows that the scheme realizes the network and intelligence of agricultural water monitoring system management, and has broad market prospect.

    Agrophotovoltaics Increases the Land Use Efficiency by over 60 Percent

    Until now, acreage was designated for either photovoltaics or photosynthesis, that is, to generate electricity or grow crops. An agrophotovoltaics (APV) pilot project near Lake Constance, however, has now demonstrated that both uses are compatible. Dual use of land is resource efficient, reduces competition for land and additionally opens up a new source of income for farmers. For one year, the largest APV system in Germany is being tested on the Demeter farm cooperative Heggelbach. In the demonstration project “Agrophotovoltaic – Resource Efficient Land Use” (APV-Resola)” led by the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE, solar modules for electricity production are installed directly above crops covering an area of one third hectare. Now the first solar harvest of power and produce has been collected on both levels.
