Discover the fascinating journey of tannins under the microscope. Vegetable extracts and members of the polyphenol family, tannins are not just chemical compounds; they are a bridge between different species and kingdoms, acting as messengers of the plant world. These polyphenols boast unique properties, such as their role in stabilising animal proteins, modulating microbiota and reducing GHG emissions in the atmosphere. Learn more about the unparalleled benefits of tannins for plants, animals and humans, and how they contribute to protecting our forest heritage and promoting economic development in rural areas. Let’s appreciate the virtues of tannin together! Read the full article "Tannin under the microscope" here: https://lnkd.in/gtdY-bP    #Tannins #Sustainability #Innovation #Science

𝐌𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐚-𝐁𝐢𝐨𝐒𝐨𝐥: the French project that aims to measure the impact of 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 on the biological quality of soil to answer the many questions of farmers involved in anaerobic digestion processes. Pierre Mulliez from the CHAMBRE REGIONALE D'AGRICULTURE DES PAYS DE LA LOIRE, explains the project that is divided in two parts: a first part focused on 𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 and a second part of 𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬, thanks to a network of local farms. https://bit.ly/3QA1kd0

Very happy to share our new publication in the Journal of Pest Science, with title: Potential of blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to disturb whiteflies on the crop: a new push–pull strategy? 🌱 💡 We showed that blue LEDs deterred nearly 50% of whiteflies from the plants in the greenhouse, and more than half of them were recaptured on a green LED trap, which was at least twice as attractive as a yellow sticky trap, and captured nearly 12 times more whiteflies in presence of blue LEDs, compared to the control❗️. These findings can contribute to targeted whitefly control techniques and the development of new push–pull strategies 💡 Read more in the link below: https://lnkd.in/e3pc-UMG
