“Diagnosing the Deep: The Future of Bacterial Diagnostics in Aquaculture (2024-2033)”

Bacterial diagnostics in aquaculture are becoming essential for maintaining the health and productivity of fish and shellfish farms, addressing the growing challenges posed by infectious diseases. By employing advanced molecular techniques and rapid testing methods, aquaculture operators can quickly identify pathogens, enabling timely intervention and reducing antibiotic use. This proactive approach not only enhances fish welfare but also supports sustainable practices, ensuring safer seafood for consumers and minimizing environmental impacts. As the aquaculture industry continues to expand, bacterial diagnostics will play a pivotal role in fostering resilience and sustainability.

Encontramos una buena cantidad de restaurantes veganos en Ho Chi Minh y el corazón se nos salió del cuerpo. Caminamos por los lugares que marcaba el maps.me y por otros también, descubriendo gran variedad y ofertas de esta deliciosa y amorosa decisión de vida. Ganó por goleada el Healthy Farm. Realmente fue amor a primera vista. Su vidriera es hermosa, su interior tiene un decorado delicado y todo, TODO está impecable (acá en Vietnam la limpieza y las condiciones de higiene son casi inexistentes). Nos leímos todo el menú y, como hacía mucho que no nos mandábamos una buena hamburguesa, no nos quedó otra que ordenar este plato. Sinceramente nos dejó loquitas. Tanto, que queremos ir de nuevo para la cena. Ah! Y los precios increíbles. Ya sabemos que “lo vegano” suele ser incoherentemente más caro que lo no vegano pero este lugar es la excepción a toda regla. Es incluso más barato que comer en la calle! . . #nenaslibres #mujeresviajeras #travelfood #foodtravel #govegan #veganfoodtravel #veganwives #lobasviajeras #lobas #misiochuen #emelunga #veganshares #easyvegan #vietnamfood #vietnamtravel #vietnamtravel #veganvietnamese #hamburguervegano #healthyfarm #veganfoodshares #veganforthem #youcansavetheplanetnow #vospodessalvaralplanetaya #hochiminh (en Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxkcIAwA5hl/?igshid=1gs3r0y53fadv

A two-year study evaluated an organic fish fertilizer in a squash/collard rotation, and compared its effectiveness to inorganic sources. Although yields were reduced in the crops grown with hydrolyzed fish fertilizer treatments, economic analyses showed that premium prices and potential profits associated with organic products were enough to offset reduced yield. The authors said that the use of hydrolyzed fish fertilizer could be an economically feasible option in organic vegetable production. In the production of organic vegetables, nitrogen is important, yet can be quite costly to manage. Nitrogen management is even more challenging when production practices call for the use of polyethylene mulch combined with fertigation. The authors of a new study published in HortScience have found that hydrolyzed fish fertilizer holds promise as an "economically feasible" nitrogen source for growing organic vegetables. "Soluble organic nitrogen sources suitable for fertigation in organic vegetable production are much needed," said lead author of the study, Charles Ogles. Ogles and colleagues at Auburn University studied the effects of three different nitrogen sources during a 2-year crop sequence of yellow squash and collards. The scientists used hydrolyzed fish fertilizer, inorganic nitrogen (N) source with secondary and micronutrients, inorganic nitrogen without secondary or micronutrients, and a zero nitrogen control for the study. Nitrogen was applied at: recommended rates for both squash and collards, 80% of the recommended rates, and 60% of the recommended rates. The study design included a zero nitrogen treatment used as the control. "To eliminate the rotation order effect, the crops were switched each year: yellow squash-collard in year one, and collard-yellow squash in year two," explained Ogles. In the first year of the study, the researchers found that yellow squash had a 30% higher yield when grown with inorganic nitrogen as compared with squash grown in hydrolyzed fish fertilizer. Collards showed a 21% higher yield when grown with inorganic nitrogen source with secondary and micronutrients as compared with collards grown in the hydrolyzed fish fertilizer. "In the second year of the study, highest yields of collards were again produced with inorganic nitrogen source with secondary and micronutrients treatments, followed by those grown in the hydrolyzed fish fertilizer treatments," the authors said. "Second-year squash grown in the inorganic N treatments produced highest yields, while squash grown in the fish fertilizer had a 16% lower yield as compared with those grown in the two inorganic N sources." Additional results revealed that inorganic nitrogen without secondary or micronutrients produced lower marketable collard yields than the other treatments, an outcome the authors attributed to sulfur deficiency. After performing economic analyses, the authors concluded that if growers can obtain the price premiums associated with organic produce, the use of hydrolyzed fish fertilizer could be an economically feasible option in organic vegetable production. "Although yields were reduced in the crops grown in hydrolyzed fish fertilizer treatments, the premium price and resultant profit associated with organic products were enough to offset the reduced yield,"

'Slow, insidious' soil erosion threatens human health and welfare as well as the environment, Cornell study asserts

Around the world, soil is being swept and washed away 10 to 40 times faster than it is being replenished, destroying cropland the size of Indiana every year, reports a new Cornell University study.

Yet the need for food and other agricultural products continues to soar.

Plenty of people should be, stressed Pimentel, whose study on the food and environmental threat of soil erosion is published in a recent issue of the Journal of the Environment, Development and Sustainability (Vol. 8, 2006)."Soil erosion is second only to population growth as the biggest environmental problem the world faces," said David Pimentel, professor of ecology at Cornell. "Yet, the problem, which is growing ever more critical, is being ignored because who gets excited about dirt?"

"Erosion is a slow and insidious process," stressed Pimentel. "Yet, controlling soil erosion is really quite simple: The soil can be protected with cover crops when the land is not being used to grow crops."

Other ways to reduce erosion include reducing the need for people in developing countries to clear forests for agriculture, overgraze their cattle and remove crop residues for cooking fuel.

The vast majority -- 99.7 percent -- of human food comes from cropland, which is shrinking by more than 10 million hectares (almost 37,000 square miles) a year due to soil erosion, Pimentel reports, while more people than ever -- more than 3.7 billion people -- are malnourished.

"Erosion is one of those problems that nickels and dimes you to death: One rainstorm can wash away 1 mm (.04 inches) of dirt. It doesn't sound like much, but when you consider a hectare (2.5 acres), it would take 13 tons of topsoil -- or 20 years if left to natural processes -- to replace that loss," Pimentel said. "And that kind of loss occurs year after year by wind and rain around the world."

The study, which pulls together statistics on soil erosion from more than 125 sources, reports:

The United States is losing soil 10 times faster -- and China and India are losing soil 30 to 40 times faster -- than the natural replenishment rate.

The economic impact of soil erosion in the United States costs the nation about $37.6 billion each year in productivity losses. Damage from soil erosion worldwide is estimated to be $400 billion per year.

As a result of erosion over the past 40 years, 30 percent of the world's arable land has become unproductive.

About 60 percent of soil that is washed away ends up in rivers, streams and lakes, making waterways more prone to flooding and to contamination from soil's fertilizers and pesticides.

Soil erosion also reduces the ability of soil to store water and support plant growth, thereby reducing its ability to support biodiversity.

Erosion promotes critical losses of water, nutrients, soil organic matter and soil biota, harming forests, rangeland and natural ecosystems.

Erosion increases the amount of dust carried by wind, which not only acts as an abrasive and air pollutant but also carries about 20 human infectious disease organisms, including anthrax and tuberculosis.
