Moving Closer to Farmers
Just as all politics are local, all farming is local. Terrain, soils, weather patterns, market access and cultural production practices vary dramatically across the Fruited Plain, as do the issues and concerns shaping ag policy. So it only makes sense for the entity that combines politics and farming to go local. Because in an urbanized city located on the banks of the Potomac, run by elephants and donkeys, you don’t see many cows, pigs or chickens, much less corn, wheat or almonds.
What Differentiates Humic and Fulvic Acids?
By Richard Lamar, PhDDirector of Humic ResearchBio Huma Netics, Inc. For centuries, humic acids (HA) were thought to be composed of much larger molecules than those found in fulvic acids (FA). However, the application of Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS), which separates molecules on the basis of molecular weight, demonstrates that the
The Original Farm App: The Notebook
Before apps, dashboards and precision tools, there was something simpler and just as powerful: a pocket notebook. Tucked into a shirt pocket, it held the story of every field, every decision and every season. For many farmers, it wasn’t just a record book. It was a diary.
