Nicole Narea at Vox:
For 49 years after Roe v. Wade, Americans had the right to obtain an abortion if they became pregnant. Then, two years ago, with Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the Supreme Court put an end to it. The Biden administration and some blue states — supported by a network of nonprofits focused on reproductive care — aggressively sought to compensate, while many red states enacted near-total bans on abortion. But Dobbs has nevertheless had a devastating effect on pregnant people in huge swaths of the country. While the number of abortions across the country actually increased last year — thanks in large part to increasingly cheap and accessible medication abortion — that has not changed the fundamental realities of post-Dobbs America. Large reproductive care deserts have emerged in which there are no abortion providers for hundreds of miles. Pregnant people are being denied necessary medical care as their doctors fear the legal repercussions of providing it. All of this has exacerbated long-standing inequities.
Both abortion bans and attacks on reproductive rights are broadly unpopular, and elections in the years since Dobbs showed that abortion rights were a potent motivating issue for voters. But in this year’s matchup between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump — both of whom have been reluctant messengers of their party’s stance on abortion — there’s a question as to whether the issue will continue to motivate American voters. It is not too late for their votes to make a difference for reproductive access. It may seem like the worst has already come to pass for the abortion rights movement: though once protected by the constitution nationally, access now increasingly depends on where you live or whether you can afford to travel for the care you need. But Republicans have also made clear that they have no intention of stopping there.
How the legal landscape has changed
In the wake of Dobbs, 13 states immediately implemented “trigger” bans on abortion, while others sought to enforce abortion restrictions that were on the books before Roe v. Wade was even decided in 1973 or quickly moved to pass new bans on abortion. A new patchwork of abortion laws was established in the US within months. A total of 14 states have enacted near-total bans on abortion.
Many of these bans involved narrow medical exceptions in which abortions could be performed when the health or life of the mother was at risk. But those exceptions have proved exceptionally difficult — in some states, nigh impossible — to qualify for.
[...]
Republicans aren’t stopping now that they have overturned Roe. They have continued to advocate for a national abortion ban, even though Trump has indicated that he would not sign it, and opened up new attacks on contraception and in vitro fertilization. If Trump wins the election, he could also order the FDA to rescind its approval of the abortion drug mifepristone after the Supreme Court left open that possibility in a recent ruling upholding access to the drug for now. In short: The dust has still yet to settle post-Dobbs, but it’s clear that abortion was only Republicans’ first target in a larger war on reproductive freedom.
What that has meant for people seeking abortions
Despite the new restrictions on abortion in many parts of the country, the number of abortions performed nationally has actually gone up slightly since Dobbs. But it would be a mistake to see that statistic and say that everyone has improved access to abortion equally across the US. “While the numbers have gone up a bit nationally, in some states, there are virtually no abortions happening,” at least in a formal health care setting, said Usha Ranji, associate director for women’s health policy at KFF, a health policy research and news organization.
The use of medication abortion, which can end a pregnancy during the first trimester, has gone up in particular. Though it was already the most common method of obtaining an abortion pre-Dobbs, it is now cheaper and easier to obtain quickly, especially via telemedicine. That’s because, amid the pandemic, the FDA suspended the requirement that mifepristone be dispensed in person, resulting in an explosion of telemedicine abortion services.
[...] Anecdotally, physicians have also reported concerns about their ability to provide adequate reproductive care since the Dobbs decision came down. A KFF national survey of OBGYNs found that significant shares of respondents were concerned about their ability to administer a level of care consistent with the medical profession’s standards, their potential legal liability in states where abortion is banned, and health outcomes for their patients. In states where abortion is banned or restricted, for example, six in 10 OBGYNs say their decision-making autonomy has become worse since the Dobbs ruling. “They’re in this place where they have to really contemplate whether they continue to provide care within that state, or whether they leave the state so that they can actually practice medicine in a way that complies with the standards of care,” Gibson said.
2 years ago, when the reactionary right-wing Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey with the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, the impacts of the Dobbs ruling were a disaster in several red states and significantly increased the amount of abortion access deserts.
But anti-abortion extremists are not stopping there, as they are also going after a wide swath of reproductive rights, such as mifepristone, IVF, birth control, and contraception.

Prepare Best Organic Fertilizer at Home In 3 Steps
What is organic fertilizer? Organic fertilizer is a type of plant nutrient derived from organic sources. It typically comes from plant or animal waste or powdered minerals. Examples include compost, bat guano, bone meal, and chicken manure. Organic fertilizers not only provide essential nutrients for plants but also improve soil structure, stimulate beneficial soil microorganisms, and improve…

Develop innovative organic fertilizer system to adapt to the new situation in the market
Since the organic fertilizer equipment entered the domestic market, it has begun to implement technology development. Because in the face of the era of rapid development, enterprises can not show weakness if they want to get better development and progress, and use a firm determination to go to the road of technological development, which will help the development of future equipment in this process, gradually find the goal of development. According to the current market development situation, China's organic fertilizer production line with the emergence of automation technology, has gradually entered a mature stage of development, because the emergence of fully automatic equipment, proves the rapid development of China's fertilizer processing industry and the complete integration of technology. Technology is now the passport to both domestic and international markets. With the improvement and integration of high-end technology, the development of domestic equipment in the market has received more customer attention and recognition.
In China, for organic fertilizer equipment, the speed of development is still relatively backward, and many new ideas are still introduced from Western countries. My country is also aware of this, and we are working in this area to narrow the gap with the international level. With the mass production and promotion of organic fertilizer, the development of this industry is still changing with each new day, we are also constantly innovating and opening up the market.
We always believe that whether it is organic fertilizer equipment or other fertilizer processing equipment, it is necessary to improve equipment technology in the future development. After the company's own efforts and struggles, it can conform to the development trend of The Times and gradually mature.

Hydro-organic
Hydro-organic is a means of growing plants in ann inert soilless medium and feeding with a soluble organic nutrient solution.Organic fertilizers are most often defined as a containing substance with a carbon molecule or a natural unaltered substance such as ground-up rocks.
Delicated gardeners spend the time and trouble it takes to grow hydro-organically,because the natural nutrients bring out a sweet organic taste in vegetables.Indoor and outdoor crops grown in less than 90 days do not have time to wait for organic nutrients to be broken down.Organic nutrients must be soluble and readily available for fast-growing annuals to benefit.
An exact balance of organic nutrients can be achieved with constant experimentation and attention to details.Even when you buy ready-mixed commercial fertilizers like BioCanna,Earth Juice,or FoxFarm,you will need to try different feeding amounts and schedules to get the exact combination to grow top-quality organic produce.
Taking an accurate EC reading or mixing the exact amount of a specific nutrient is very difficult in organic hydroponics.Chemical fertilizers are easy to measure out and apply.It is wasy to give plants the specific amount of fertilizer they need in each stage of growth.
Organic nutrients have a complex structure,and measuring content is difficult.Organics are difficult to keep stable,too.Some manufacturers,including BioCanna,Naturehydro,Earth Juic,and Fox Farm,have managed to stabilize their fertilizers.When buying organic nutrients,always buy from the same supplier,and find out as much as possible about the source from which the fertilizers were derived.
Combine premixed soluble organic fertilizers with other organic ingredients to make your own blend.Indoor gardeners experiment to find the perfect mix for their system and the varieties they are growing.Adding too much fertilizer can toxify soil and bind up nutrients,making them unavailable.Foliage and roots burn when the condition is severe.
Soluble organic fertilizers are fairy easy to flush from the growing medium.Like chemical fertilizers,organic fertilizers build to toxic levels easily.Look for the same symptoms as in soil-burned leaf tips,discolored misshapen leaves,brittle leaves,etc.Organic nutrients require heavier flushing.Rinse medium with three gallons of water for every gallon of medium.Some indoor gardeners flush with plain water the last two weeks of flowering to get all fertlizer taste out of their vegetables.
Mix seaweed with macronutrients and secondary nutrients to make a hydro-organic fertilizer.The amount of primary and secondary nutrients is not as important as the menagerie of trace elements that are in an available form in the seaweed.Major nutrients can be applied via soluble fish emulsion for nitrogen;phosphorus and potassium are supplied by bat guano,bone meal, and manures.More and more organic gardeners are adding growth stimulators suc as humic acid,Trichoderma bacteria,and hormones.

How and When to Fertilize Your Vegetable Garden
We use fertilizer to make our plants grow better, but when is the best time to apply fertilizer? And how much of what kind of fertilizer do we apply? In one page, we’ll cover the basics of using fertilizers in your garden.
What Is Fertilizer?
As well as having soil that’s rich in organic matter (compost!), plants often need an application of fertilizer to get the nutrients that need. Think of fertilizers as nutritional supplements. For example, tomatoes need to grow in soil that has plenty of calcium.
You're reading: How and When to Fertilize Your Vegetable Garden
If you’ve grown and harvested plants in your garden in the past, these crops took up the nutrients from the soil, and those nutrients should be replaced in the spring before more plants are grown there. This is where fertilizer (organic or processed) plays a role. Fertilizers replace lost nutrients, which ensures that soil nutrient levels are at an acceptable level for healthy growth.
If you are a brand-new gardener, the ideal first step is to get a basic soil test in the autumn to see what kind and amount of fertilizer to apply to get to a “basic fertility” level. (See more about testing below.) We recognize that not every gardener takes the time to do a soil test, but we recommend it; you may even find that the fertility level of your garden is already adequate.
Apply fertilizer with caution, though: The only thing worse than starving a plant of nutrients is to accidentally overfertilize it. Plants use only the nutrients that they need. Absorbing more than necessary can result in abnormal growth or adverse effects.
When to Fertilize Your Garden
For edible crops, fertilizer is usually applied in the spring and mixed into the garden soil before planting. If you’ve already sown your seeds or planted seedlings, you can still gently work in granular fertilizer (not liquid fertilizer, which can burn young roots) around the plants. It need not be worked deeply into the soil—the upper 3 to 5 inches will do. Then water in the fertilizer.
For perennial flowering plants, fertilize before growth begins in the spring. Wait until the ground is no longer frozen and the date of your last frost is only a week or so away. This ensures that there is less of a chance of the tender new growth brought about by the fertilizer getting immediately killed by frost.
While a spring application is a good general rule, understand that what plants really need is help when they are growing the most.
This occurs earlier for spring plantings of lettuce, arugula, kale, and other leafy greens.
Rapid growth occurs in midsummer for corn and squash. So, for a long-season crop such as corn, many gardeners apply a small amount of fertilizer as a starter at the time of seeding, and then also add a larger amount in early summer, just before the period of rapid foliar growth.
Tomatoes and potatoes will need extra fertilizer mid-season as the plants take up and use existing nutrients. When tomatoes start producing flowers, switch to a low-nitrogen fertilizer in order to encourage more flowers and fruit rather than foliage.
For perennial plants, the timing depends on the plant’s growth cycle. Blueberries, for example, benefit when fertilizer is applied early in the season at bud break, while June-bearing strawberries benefit most when fertilized after the harvest.
Ornamental trees, shrubs, and perennials are often fertilized at the beginning of their growing season, as dormancy breaks.

Always Take a Soil Test!
The only way to truly determine the level of nutrients in your soil is a “soil test.” Testing in autumn will give you plenty of time to receive the results. Soil tests are usually available for free or low-cost from your local cooperative extension. You will not need to do this ever year. The goal is to understand your soil, build it up, and then simply apply fertilizer to the soil ever year to maintain the basic fertility level.
You may even find that if your garden has been fertilized for years, you have high levels of nutrients. You do not want to add nutrients to your soil if it’s already available in high amounts; this may actually inhibit your plants’ growth. Read more about how to take a soil test.
How Much of What Kind of Fertilizer Should I Use?
A fertilizer bag will be labeled with a combination of numbers such as 3-4-4 or 8-24-8, or +61404532026. These three numbers refer to the three most important nutrients plants need: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K). The numbers refer to the percentage of weight of each nutrient in the bag. If you add up the numbers, they are the percentage of the bag’s total weight (the rest is simply filler to make it easy to apply). There may also be other nutrients, including calcium, magnesium, iron, and manganese.
To start your garden, use a general vegetable fertilizer. For vegetables, we use an herb and vegetable plant food with a 3-4-4 number. For tomatoes, we use a separate fertlize with a 3-4-6 ration which also contains calcium to help prevent blossom-end rot.
Phosporous is important because this is what’s needed for root development and growth. Potassium strengthen plants’ abilities to resist disease. Note the nitrogen (first number) is lower. Ever seen tomato plants that have lush leaves but no flowers or fruit? That’s due to too much nitrogen, which encourages leafy growth.
Vegetable crops require most of their nitrogen after they have made considerable growth or have already begun to fruit. To have too much nitrogen before this time delays maturity and reduces flowering and yields. Your plants will also get nitrogen from the breakdown of organic matter in your soil.
Later in the season, some plants benefit from a nitrogen side dressings (sprinkled in middle of rows). The demand of the plant for nitrogen often exceeds that supplied by the first two, and a nitrogen side-dressing is needed. But it depends on the vegetable.
Cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli can benefit from more fertlizer three weeks after transplanting.
Peas, beans, cucumbers, and muskmelons can benefit after blossoming begins.
Peppers, eggplants, and tomatoes benefit after first fruit sets and tomatoes could use more about two weeks after picking your first tomato, and then again a month later.
Sweet corn can benefit when plants are 8 to 10 inches tall and then one week after tassels appear.
Spinach, kale, mustard, and turnip greens can benefit when plants are about one-third grown.
These vegetables should NOT have added nitrogen: sweet potatoes, watermelons, carrots, beets, turnips, parsnips, lettuce.
The fertilizer bag should tell you the amount to use per 1,000 square feet of garden area. You can always ask the nursery staff for help translating to your garden space.
Read more in our article on fertilizer basics and the NPK ratio.
Processed vs. Organic Fertilizers
The fertilizer guidelines apply to both processed or organic fertilizers.
Processed fertilizers (also called “synthetic” or “chemical” fertilizers) are manufactured from natural ingredients such as phosphate rock (P) and sodium chloride (NaCl) and potassium chloride (KCl) salts, but these are refined to be made more concentrated. Most (but not all) processed fertilizers are quick-release in a water-soluble form to deliver nutrients quickly to the plant, which can be useful in some situations. (There are some processed fertilizers that are coated to slow down the release.)
Organic fertilizers are materials derived from plants that slowly release nutrients as the micro-organisms in the soil break down. Often applied in granular form (spread over the soil), most organic nutrients are slow-release, adding organic material to the soil so that you don’t need to apply it nearly as often. (Plus, they don’t leach into and pollute waterways, as do many of the synthetic, water-soluble fertilizers, which plants can’t fully absorb.) While most organic fertilizers are slow-release products, some release a portion of their nutrients quickly (examples are animal manure, biosolids, and fish emulsion).
Chemically, the nutrients for processed and organic fertilizers are the same. Ideally, slow is the way to go. Slow-release granular fertilizers meter out nutrients in a controlled, “digestible,” and safe manner, as opposed to fast-acting, synthetic, water-soluble fertilizers, which are, in essence, an overdose.
In terms of cost: While organic fertilizers can be more expensive upfront than processed fertilizers, they are often still economical for small gardens. Plus, you don’t need to apply as often. When you add the long-term benefits to your soil, organic outweighs processed.
How to Apply Granular Fertilizers
For that first “starter” fertilizer application of the season, apply granular fertilizers by broadcasting them either by hand or with a spreader over a large area. Or, if you’ve already planted, side-dress the fertilizer alongside your rows. All dry fertilizers should be worked or watered into the top 3 to 5 inches of soil with hoe or spade work after being applied to help the fertilizer leach down toward the plants’ root zones. If your plants are already growing, cultivate gently so that you do not damage any roots.
During the growing season, lighter supplemental applications can be made to the top inch of soil in crop rows and perennial beds and around the drip lines of trees or shrubs. (Read the label to find out how often applications should be made.)
Read more: History of Gnomes | LoveToKnow
In general, applying granular fertilizers just before a good rain can be beneficial, as it aids in working the fertilizer down into the soil where roots can access it.
How to Apply Liquid Fertilizers
All water-soluble fertilizers are applied by dissolving the product in irrigation water and then applying it to the leaves of the plant and the soil around the plant.
Warning: Do not apply liquid fertilizer at the same time that you plant! No matter how carefully you remove plants from their containers and place them in the ground, some root hairs will break. The fertilizer will reach the roots immediately and enter them at the broken points, potentially “burning” them and causing further die-back.
Many gardeners wait 2 to 3 weeks after planting before fertilizing with liquid solutions; by then, the newly set-out plants should have recovered from any root damage.
It is important to water plants thoroughly with plain water before applying the liquid fertilizer to avoid burning the roots if the soil is dry. Also, take care that the fertilizer is indeed diluted based on instructions, or you could burn the leaves. If you have a watering system, you can use an injector device to run the fertilizer through the system.
In the case of liquid sprays, it is best to apply them on dry days in either the early morning or the early evening, when the leaves will have time to absorb the material. Avoid extremely hot days when foliage is subject to burning.

The Cincinnati Zoo produces a lot of poop, and they're putting it to good use The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden is helping save the planet one pile of poop at a time. And they have a lot of it. “One of the first things that struck me is how much poop we have,” said Mark Fisher, vice president of facilities at the zoo, which has partnered with a firm to process some 2 million pounds of organic waste each year into fertilizer to help sustain its facilities. Since being dubbed the “Greenest Zoo in America” in 2010, the zoo has set a goal of producing enough of its own renewable energy to meet its annual consumption needs by 2025. “We were just sending it to the landfill, and there’s got to be a better way,” Fisher said. The zoo has partnered with a company in Ireland to use an aerobic digester to “cook” the waste material and break it down into fertilizer. The fertilizer then is used at a farm in Warren County that grows food for the zoo animals and will be available to the zoo’s neighbors in Avondale to improve the quality of their own soil. Raven Richard/WCPO The Cincinnati Zoo uses this aerobic digester to process its organic waste into fertlizer. The final product’s unofficial name: Fionalizer, after the zoo’s beloved young hippo, Fiona. “We’ll see if that sticks, but I kind of like it. We’ll see if that holds,” Fisher said. The material that could be sent to the digester includes anything organic: fish, feed, manure and grasses, among other waste matter. Fisher said this type of technology at this scale is a Cincinnati first. “There’s no one else doing this in this town or, quite frankly, within a hundred miles that I know of,” he said. “I’ve already gotten about a dozen phone calls from other zoos across the country saying, ‘Let me know how that goes.'” The digester solution has been a slow burn, though, and is still in its trial phase. It has taken nearly a decade to develop the technology as it’s being used today, which still only processes roughly 20-30% of the zoo’s organic waste. The zoo said fertilizer could be available for neighbors in Avondale as soon as next month. window.fbAsyncInit = function() FB.init( appId : '1374721116083644', xfbml : true, version : 'v2.9' ); ; (function(d, s, id) var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js"; js.async = true; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); (document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s) if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function()n.callMethod? n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments); if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0'; n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0; t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)(window, document,'script', 'https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js'); fbq('init', '1080457095324430'); fbq('track', 'PageView'); Source link Orbem News #9OnYourSide #aerobicdigester #Cincinnati #Cincinnatinews #cincinnatizoo #Good #greenenergy #Lot #organicwaste #Poop #produces #Putting #sustainability #theyre #WCPO #Zoo
