Particle size matters in precision agriculture |
Jun 18:
The website carries here an analysis of the spread patterns of fertilisers in a field under precision agriculture.
8Proper application of fertilizers to maintain crop growth is an essential part of precision agriculture and is required to minimize the cost of production whilst preserving the environment.
8Further studies have shown that fertilisers with heterogeneous particle size distributions proved to have more robust spread patterns under field conditions than those with homogeneous particle size distributions.

Bio-Fertilizers: Demand driven |
Jun 15:
The website carries here an analysis of bio-fertilizers which have emerged as a highly potent alternative to chemical fertilizers due to their eco-friendly, easy to apply, non-toxic and cost effective nature.
8Moreover, bio-fertilizers, more commonly known as microbial inoculants, are artificially multiplied cultures of certain soil organisms that can improve soil fertility and crop productivity as well.
8Since, it's production is always demand driven, therefore creation of demand among farmers is one of the most important steps required towards promotion of bio-fertilizers in the long run.

Renewable prices to fall faster in China than in India |
Jun 14:
Even as the use of gas and coal goes up, a 2040 projection of differentiated energy prices show solar energy besting wind as the cheapest form of power
8Coal will be expensive than renewable energy sooner than later
8But gas-based power will continue to be far more expensive than solar or coal power going ahead
8Interestingly, perhaps on account of domestic industry protection policies, prices for renewable energy will fall faster in China than in India
8Gas will clearly loses the competitive edge

Gas not renewable saw the largest increase in consumption in 2017 |
Jun 14:
Primary energy consumption growth averaged 2.2% in 2017, up from 1.2% last year and the fastest since 2013. This compares with the 10-year average of 1.7% per year.
8This has had concomitant side effects.
8And surprisingly, it was not renewable energy consumption that was grew the most, it was gas, followed by renewables and then oil.
8Energy consumption rose by 3.1% in China. China was the largest growth market for energy for the 17th consecutive year.
8Natural gas consumption rose by 96 billion cubic metres (bcm), or 3%, the fastest since 2010.
8Coal consumption increased by 25 million tonnes of oil equivalent (mtoe), or 1%, the first growth since 2013. Consumption growth was driven largely by India (18 mtoe), with
8China consumption also up slightly (4 Mtoe) following three successive annual declines during 2014-2016.

Agri businesses: A fresh look |
Jun 14:
The website throws light on the importance of investing in agri-businesses because it is widely recognised as one of the most effective ways to alleviate poverty, improve food security and reduce hunger and malnutrition.
8According to the FAO, investing in agriculture is three times more effective at reducing poverty than investing in other industries and currently, there is also a growing recognition of the value of the private sector’s contribution to sustainable development in agriculture.
8One of the biggest challenges for the agri-business sector is to increase productivity while staying within boundaries to ensure human, animal and ecosystem health.

The myth of gas as a bridge fuel-II: Some unpleasant truths |
Jun 13:
Here are some quick facts that the alternate line of argument seems to be throwing up:
8How Much Room for New Gas?
Climate goals require the power sector to be decarbonized by mid-century. This means fossil gas use must be phased out, not increased
8Is New Gas Holding Back Renewable Energy?
Wind and solar are now cheaper than coal and gas in many regions. This means new fossil gas capacity often displaces new wind and solar rather than old coal.
8The Wrong Gas at the Wrong Time:
Claims that fossil gas supports renewable energy development are false. The cheapest gas generation technology, Combined Cycle Gas Turbines (CCGT), is designed for base load operation, not intermittent peaking. Regardless, most grids are far from renewable energy penetration levels that would require back up. In many regions, storage and demand response
technologies will be ready to step in by the time they are required.
8New Gas Locks in Emissions for 30+ Years:
Companies building multibillion-dollar fossil gas infrastructure today expect to operate their assets for around 30 years. Emissions goals mean this expectation cannot be met.
8Too Much Gas Already:
The coal, oil, and fossil gas in the world’s currently producing and under-construction projects, if fully extracted and burned, would take the world far beyond safe climate limits. Opening new fossil gas fields is inconsistent with the Paris climate goals.

The myth of gas as a bridge fuel-I: A new line of renewable energy-backed argument seems to be emerging |
Jun 13:
For gas producers in India, it is important to keep track of all global dialogues on gas as a sustainable fuel because of their possible impact on business
8In most cases, companies building multibillion-dollar fossil gas infrastructure today expect to operate these assets for 30 years or more.
8The argument made that gas is a bridge fuel till the time the world eventually decarbonates is sought to be increasingly debunked by the increasingly assertive pro renewable energy lobby
8While methane gas leakage is used as the main argument against the use of gas, the argument now goes beyond that point to indicate that even in the hypothetical case of zero methane leakage, fossil gas cannot be a bridge fuel.
