The Ag Formula

The full package

Everyone is the rage over precision agriculture, using spectral imagery to determine everything from productions estimates down to determining the sugar content in grapes that are ripe for picking to distinguishing healthy plants from unhealthy plants by measuring the chlorophyll content of the leaves and spectral reflectance determining wilt which is an indicator of diseased plants. It is possible to measure the moisture, carbon and salinity content in the soil. The same technology can detect the type and species of weeds. This is where the magic happens. It is a known practice to figure out the mineral content in the soil by the type of weeds that grow in it. This is great for saving time flying over a farm or orchard but then what do you do?

Treatment

So what does a UAS/Drone pilot do once he does all of the heavy lifting flying his expensive technology to collect valuable data. Who makes the real money? The Ag Consultant and Crop Scientists charge 5c per acre and another 5c per acre for soil analysis. To make $50,000 per year you would have to have 500,000 acres under contract for both Ag Consulting services and soil analysis. Oh but they also get a piece of the fertilizer and pesticides they subscribe. What is interesting is that there are issues that are caused by these commercial fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides. NPK fertilizer causes hard pack amongst other things which prevents water from penetrating the soil, instead running off causing erosion and then is causes plankton and algae to super go, die quickly and that sucks the oxygen out of the water causing dead-zones in the oceans and lakes. Then they recommended not tilling the soil and just punching the seeds into the ground which will reduce erosion. What they did was recommend spraying the fertilizers on the surface. The problem with that is, it rained and all of that fertilizer ran off into the lakes and streams creating algae blooms leaving hundreds of thousands of people around the Great Lakes in Ohio, Minnesota and California. Then in Panama and Columbia they had an herbicide run off and contaminate the water supplies with chemicals that carcinogenetic and cause birth defects. I would bet that it is worth more than 10c per acre to solve these issues.

The ECO-Agri Formula that GUTC uses to kill palm weevils by disrupting the molecular structure of the bug’s exoskeleton allowing water to penetrate and rupture their internals and gum up the villi that they use to breath. The same process of separating the molecules on residual NPK, breaking them up and making usable for the natural microbes to digest. These microbes attach themselves to the roots of plants and for the purpose of converting nitrogen in the air soil making usable for the plants. The nitrogen in chemical fertilizers isn’t the proper type that the natural Microbes like. Then there are super microbes that digest hydrocarbons like oil sludge and the byproduct is a carbon based liquid that is milky clear and smells like ammonia and it is loaded with vitamins and nutrients, the type that the natural microbes love. It makes the plants more robust and resistant to infestations. It doesn’t kill bugs. The whole balanced solution of determining the right mix of treating the soil by reducing potassium other minerals and chemicals that cause certain weeds to grow, knowing where to increase the irrigation, add fertilizer, the right type of fertilizer or treat the soil. I know more than most but I know people who know more than I and her name is Lena Vander Stap and she loves this stuff.
