6 Technological Innovations for Gardeners

6 Technological Innovations for Gardeners –  Innovative technologies are now being actively implemented even in such a fairly conservative industry as gardening.

Over the past 10-20 years, new methods and approaches have not only allowed increasing the volume of products received but also significantly improved their quality.

And what recently seemed like science fiction is being used in different directions today.

Blockchain

Probably, IoT is the only possible way to increase the efficiency of agriculture shortly.

Blockchain technology is a cutting-edge method of data storage that creates a digital record of all transactions and smart contracts.

It enables you to store any type of data, including information on loans made or leases for property, financial statements on expenses per hectare (fuel, agrochemistry, fertilizers, seeds), line items for spending on equipment and supplies purchases.

agro technological processes and purchase agreements (seeds, plant protection products, equipment), for the purchases of goods, etc.

The major benefit of blockchain is that it cannot be hacked and is therefore immune to outside meddling. Blocks contain only encrypted data thanks to sophisticated encryption algorithms.

In contrast to many other financial databases, all transactions, or so-called smart contracts, are carried out without the involvement of middlemen in this approach.

Drones in agriculture

Unmanned aerial vehicles circling over fields and gardens have not been surprising for a long time.

A small copter can perform many tasks that previously required significant labor, time, and financial costs.

A wide range of drone capabilities allows you to control and ensure the entire production process – from the selection and detailed study of the site to growth support, readiness control, and cleaning.

And the capabilities of drones are far from exhausted. Drone equipment and software are constantly being improved.

“Green” energy

The topic of clean energy is now coming to the fore in many industries and crop production is no exception.

And if recently the growth of the share of energy from renewable sources (sunlight, wind, thermal springs, sea tides, etc.) was restrained by the high cost of equipment.

the complexity of installation and maintenance, now modern technologies have allowed the cost of “green” energy to come close to traditional.

Some agricultural enterprises have already partially or completely switched to wind turbines or solar panels for energy supply.

And this approach is connected not only with concern for the environment.

In many cases, it turns out to be much cheaper than supplying energy from the networks of traditional suppliers.

In areas with a large number of sunny days or steady winds, some farms, for example, greenhouses, thus significantly reduce costs.

Vertical gardens

The pioneer in the field of vertical gardening, Frenchman Patrick Blanc, developed this technology back in the 80s of the last century, but now it has begun a true victorious march around the world.

Thousands of designers are passionate about building vertical gardens.

Such gardens are based on several solutions:

  • a special metal frame;
  • modern polymers that strengthen the structure and protect the walls from plant roots;
  • careful selection of plants placed on the surface.

The vertical garden can enliven the most urban landscape, giving them freshness and comfort.

With proper planning, such gardens require almost no maintenance, except watering and, in some cases, pruning shoots.

Technologies that increase the efficiency of soil treatment

Of course, new technologies in crop production cannot but affect tillage.

The preservation of soil fertility while minimizing the applied fertilizers and the maximum possible effect remains a priority. Several unconventional and high-tech techniques are used in this direction.

Biopesticides

Biological pesticides are products obtained as a result of the vital activity of various living organisms or based on some natural components.

Chemical means for plant protection are undoubtedly effective in the fight against pests and diseases of many crops.

And in the coming years, they are unlikely to give up their positions in crop production.

At the same time, active chemicals can accumulate in soils, and plants, and be transmitted further along the biological chain to humans or animals, domestic or wild.

Therefore, in recent years there has been a steady growth trend in the production of biopesticides.

This type of pesticide successfully competes with chemicals, although it is sometimes used in combination with them.

Competent and effective crop production depends on the application of the most advanced practices, taking into account their conditions and capabilities.

In some cases, it is possible and necessary to combine the best solutions to achieve the maximum effect
