Fertilizing with silicon amendments can attract predator insects for common pests

This week we added two studies to our growing agricultural research database. These two studies are a few years old, but the concept is a new and exciting discovery for us. Ready? Fertilizing with silicon has been shown to increase the number of natural predator insects (the insects that EAT the pests) on the silicon fertilized plants. […]

Capturing Carbon – Research profile at University of Guelph, Ontario

How U of G engineers are reducing climate change by trapping carbon dioxide in soils. Human actions, such as a gas-guzzling morning commute, have led to significant increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels. In turn, high levels of CO2 in the atmosphere block the sun’s heat from escaping and is a recognized cause of global […]
