  1. Adelaide University researchers are testing whether black soldier fly larvae fed on farm waste can become safe, protein-rich food ingredients. The work could reduce waste while adding more sustainable protein options.

  2. #Tomatoes #transplanting.
    Ensure that you pile up the soil at base of your plants. Tomato plants are happier, when you mound up the soil & transplant them deep into pots(if you're not putting them into ground). Banana peel & fish head parts are at bottom of every tomato planter to ensure they are constantly fed from the bottom up 👩‍🌾
    I'll update in 1-2 weeks on how I use alfalfa feed pellets when my tomato plants start to produce their first fruit babies.

  7. Making scientific terms and concepts accessible is the goal of our science glossary. The next round begins with "#verticalfarming" and explores how innovative research at our university is advancing more #sustainableagriculture and #foodsystems: go.tum.de/674840

  8. I want everyone to be able to have food/flower plants to nurture. For folks who can't afford to buy plants - it's important for me to give them away. I know how expensive it can get if you have to buy all your seeds/plants. My goal with sharing free plants is to make food/flowers growing more accessible to everyone. I also help fellow disabled folks set up their gardening spaces so it's easier for them to grow plants. I have been doing that for free, for years. #Gardening can be inclusive & accessible to all.

  9. Have you ever tasted a #pluot #fruit before?

    Pluots /ˈpluːɒt/ are later generations of complex hybrid between the Japanese plum, Prunus salicina (providing the greater amount of parentage), and the apricot, Prunus armeniaca.[6][7] The fruit's exterior has smooth skin closely resembling that of a plum. Pluots were developed in the late 20th century by Floyd Zaiger.[8]

    Ref: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluot

    They're one of the 1st #FruitTrees to blossom in this area of the South Island. These are their #flowerbuds & early #blossoms 🤍

  10. #RegenerativeAgriculture Goes Mainstream

    by Jan Lee Jul 10th 2025

    "The world’s hottest year on record may also mark the beginning of the end for carbon-intensive, conventional farming. Several factors have converged to bring regenerative practices into the mainstream, while a new study demonstrates that farmers can produce just as much food while improving land productivity by transitioning away from conventional practices.

    "#RegenerativeFarming first hit headlines as part of '#LivingSystemsThinking' in the 1960s, later gaining interest among health-conscious foodies when the concept was popularized by food author #MichaelPollan. Today, techniques such as #CoverCropping and integrated pest management are being embraced not only by #environmental activists but also by multinational food companies. The difference is that now, this approach is celebrated for its practical effectiveness in maintaining a consistent food supply in an era of #ClimateChange-driven supply shocks."
