Farms Fare Better With Less Intensive Soil Management, Study Finds

Farms Fare Better With Less Intensive Soil Management, Study Finds

The less intensely farmers fuss with soil, the better off that soil could be, according to a new study on soil management practices across the Netherlands. In the study, published in the journal Science, a team led by researchers from the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) analyzed soil management practices and biota at 53 farm […]

Bees Turned into Buzzing Powerhouses: Tiny Rice-Sized Tech Transforms These Pollinators into Renewable Energy Generators, Revolutionizing Sustainability

IN A NUTSHELL 🐝 Scientists have developed a rice-sized energy harvester that attaches to bees, generating electricity from their wing vibrations. 🔋 The device leverages piezoelectric technology, using flexible PVDF films to achieve efficient energy conversion without disturbing bee flight. 🧪 By integrating frequency interval matching and center-of-gravity optimization, the harvester produces an energy output […]
