A study led by researchers at the Energy Institute has proposed a new energy system for a “smart farm” in South Korea which could reduce emissions, providing a blueprint for more sustainable farming practices. The proposed energy system reduces CO2 emissions by almost 90% compared to conventional fossil-based energy systems. This new development could make farming more sustainable and reduce the sector's carbon footprint. phys.org/news/2023-08-methods-

claims to speak for “over 22 million European farmers and their family members.”

There’s just one problem with that assertion: It isn’t true.

A new study proposes a radical way to think about agriculture and its potential benefits for farming, using computational tools to explore different designs of sustainable farming systems. This approach can help farmers discover novel and diverse solutions for food production. The finding opens new possibilities for transforming agriculture and addressing global challenges.

The researchers found that the panels kept plants cooler during the day and warmer at night, and they held more moisture in the air. These less-stressed plants produced just as many jalapeños, twice the crop of tomatoes, and three times the amount of chiltepin peppers as those on a control plot.

MORE PEPPERS!

Solar power bonuses!

"The government is failing to make clear how they will give farmers confidence to invest in the radical changes needed for a resilient and sustainable, agroecological farming sector. We are facing a climate emergency and ecological collapse – there are welcome elements in today’s announcement, but we must stop tinkering around the edges.”
Gareth Morgan, Soil Association
