We recently launched an exciting new digital solution, BeCrop® Farm. This latest evolution of our technology was built to help you answer the question: “Now what?” The first of its kind, this digital platform will provide science-backed recommendations and actionable insights to maximize the potential of every acre. 🌱 BeCrop® Farm offers a suite of advanced features, including: ▪︎ Product Recommendations: Tailored, brand-agnostic, data-driven recommendations for biological inputs. ▪︎ Hi-definition Maps: Biological soil functionality metrics pinpointing areas needing attention at the field level. ▪︎ Agronomic Insights: Turns biological analysis into clear actionable management practice guidance. ▪︎ Field-level reports: Comprehensive reports that summarize key metrics and provide expert recommendations for improvement. Interested in learning more? You can now watch the launch of the event and see an exclusive demo of the platform! 👉 Watch here: https://hubs.la/Q02M0mDs0 #becropfarm #precisionagriculture #soilbiology #soilhealth

In the realm of agriculture, the inconsistent performance of microbial products across different soils, crops, and climates remains a significant challenge. Issues with stability and efficacy lead to supply chain risks and lost opportunities in food safety and resource efficiency. The decline of viable cells in these products can severely impact their effectiveness, posing substantial commercial risks. Our latest article on Agro Pages dives into how our BioShield® technology is addressing these pain points. Learn how encapsulating microbes in protective biopolymers can extend shelf life, enhance stability, and reduce costs, ensuring you get the most out of your agricultural inputs. 📖 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/esWSw-um #agriculture #agriculturalindustry #agro #agrotech #agritech #microbes #microbial #microbials #microbialproducts #formulation #formulationdevelopment #solidformulation #liquidformulation #microbialformulation #fermentation #bioreactor #bioreactors #fermenter #fermenters #microbiology #biology #gramnegative #gramnegativebacteria #bacteria #sustainability #fungi #bioshield #encapsulation #encapsulationtechnology #beads #nanobeads

GxExM: Genetics, by Environment, by Management. These are the key pillars of successful crop production. So how do you determine which (or more) are responsible for successes or failures? When production encounters issues, good agronomists respond by asking questions - gather facts and collaborate with producers. So much can go wrong when you farm, and much is out of your control- that’s why farming is BRAVE and why farmers should be respected. Mother nature impacts are pretty obvious, whether its weather, pests, or disease. Whether genetics are an appropriate fit can be trickier to tell, unless replicate trials are performed, which is the standard of any diligent seed company. When you see success from the same genetic and same seed lot (as seed quality can impact things like stand establishment, etc) across multiple regional locations, you validate that 1.) the seed lot was good and 2.) the genetics are appropriate. If the field fails under favorable mother nature conditions and evidence of genetic success elsewhere, it is likely the issue is management. This sounds obvious, but to newer producers in the hemp industry it’s important to have a framework of the basics. As an example, here are some pics of an experimental hybrid, all from the same seed lot in 3 locations quite close to each other. – 2/3 fields succeeded spectacularly, and one had poorer performance. Weather was similar across the region, and no disease or pest pressure was evident. This tells us that there were one or more production errors, which is Ok, it is likely we’ve made those errors in the past as well.  There’s a lot to learn still about hemp production, we learn new techniques and make adjustments every year. NWG has patience for newer producers and we are just a phone call or visit away. We want you to succeed – our success is yours, and yours is ours. That’s how we build this industry! #letsbuildtogether #experimentallines #experimentalhybrids #AMPLIFYhybrids #successstartsattheseed 

Nice technique to use when limited by word limits and poster size.

Great things must be shared.

Great idea to maximize data presenatation within limited 2d space.

Now this is advanced data visualization.

I have done a lot of thinking about scientific and research posters, what they are for, the context they appear in, and how to set and accomplish communication goals. What I share in my workshops is for researchers to first consider the context: busy, crowded conference spaces with dozens and sometimes hundreds of posters. What catches attention? What will ensure your target audience (colleagues, potential funders or employers, etc.) stops and engages with your research and, most importantly, with you? Interactivity is one such answer. And what Caroline here has made is created a moment of encounter with her work. Will audience's remember the actual words? Maybe. But they will definitely remember "that fun spinny poster". And that is where a lot of potential for communication and education lies.
