Horticulture recyclability: what are the eco-friendly alternatives?

Eco-conscious customers demand a reduction in plastics and an increase in sustainable packaging that does not damage the environment. 

After all, horticulture in itself is the preservation and beautification of the environment, so why damage it through lazy packaging? 

 There are a lot of products that are available across the industry to help you keep on top of your recycling game. Eco-friendly plant pots Plant pots can be made from a variety of materials, including wood, stone, metal, and terracotta. 

Terracotta pots are excellent because the manufacturing process does not include any harmful chemicals, and they are porous, which allows for air and water to easily move through to prevent root rot and soil disease. 

 Biodegradable and recyclable labels and tags

 A large portion of Dura-ID's horticultural stock labels has been recyclable since they started producing them, including the main two materials that they use across a large variety of sectors: polyplas and laserplas. Polyplas are horticultural stock labels for thermal printing, while laserplas are used in laser printing. 

The self-tie tags provide an easy identification procedure, even if you are wearing thick gardening #Agribusiness #Agriculture #horticulture #greenhouse #change #circularity.

Should RFID tags be industry standard?

Should RFID tags be industry standard? USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service is seeking public comment on a proposal where APHIS would only approve Radio Frequency Identification as the official eartag for use in interstate movement of cattle that are required to be identified by the traceability regulations.

An official eartag is defined as an identification tag approved by APHIS that bears an official identification number for individual animals.

 Regulations allow APHIS to approve tags that can be used as official identification, and both metal and RFID tags are current options.

 A transition to RFID tags would support APHIS’ ongoing efforts to increase animal disease traceability by more accurately and rapidly allowing animal health officials to know where affected and at-risk animals are located.

While this would not prevent disease outbreaks, it would allow animal health officials to more quickly contain outbreaks

INTERNET AND FOOD SAFETY

The use of internet in our everyday life not only makes our work easy but its also a point of access for food safety.

The concept above can be modeled in various industries to expand and cutoff excesses with regards to sharp/wrong practices.


 Farm animals fitted with RFID allows for easy tracing and tracking from the farm to various departure points

.The animals are processed and issued a code during packaging, this is easily read by phones/ barcode reader.

These products make their way to various superstores ,as hygienically packaged wholesome products fit for human consumption. # food court # internet of food # techy foods #food market # food safety.

AGRIBUSINESS: ANIMAL IDENTIFICATION AND QR CODES.

The vet has a major role to play in nation building in terms of animal health and production.Animal identification is a tool for tracing,tracking animals as well as collate data on population.

 Animal identification is also a planning tool that will provide into on different animals in the state,number and location. This will help policy makers to plan for vaccination project and other  preventive protocols in animals.

 It has been documented that 75% of diseases affecting humans are caused by animals, so if the health status of the animals are top priority ,then we can prevent a lot of diseases in man.


 The animal kingdom has a lot to offer the human race ,in terms of food, clothing, medicine, research opportunities, foreign exchange and new improved genetic strains and breeds that can eliminate unwanted traits in certain species.

 There is a fortune to be made from animal husbandry but management of such projects deny us the expected rewards.

  Animal identification benefits for animal health and food  safety.

 Animal/pet identification project: if farmer has his farm registered, the animals on the farm are tagged/ pooled in a data base. This  information is stored , the location of the farm is noted using google earth or the simple G.P.S . Activities on the farm are monitored by vets and of course the farm is insured.

All products from the farm can be traced up to the market,and all food safety procedures adhered to, and documented.  This process alone will give a data base of producers in the country.

 The proper management on farms will be ensured , tracing of products from farms  are possible. This will be of importance if there is a problem that mandates a recall of product for investigation.

 The way to achieve the purpose of wealth creation  from agribusiness venture is to have a data base that shows location, tracks supplies and distribution channels..
