Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

New technology to keep food fresh in the refrigerator 17.06.2016

Hotpoint presents a new series of built-in refrigerators, which, according to the manufacturer, keep food fresh for a long time. This is achieved by using Active Oxygen 2.0 and Air Technology Ventilation technologies.

The name Active Oxygen 2.0 is ozonation technology. Ozone slows down the growth of bacteria and eliminates unpleasant odors, allowing you to maintain the taste, quality and appearance of vegetables, fruits and herbs. Note that the effect is achieved without increasing the power consumption of the refrigerator. As for Air Technology Ventilation, the task of this technology is to maintain constant air ventilation, humidity level and temperature in the refrigerator compartment.

Other advantages of the new products include an increase in the internal space of the refrigerator compartment by 10% and the freezer compartment by 40%, chrome-plated holders for bottles and containers, LED lighting, as well as the presence of special compartments for fresh and frozen products. The Fresh Zone drawer, which maintains a higher humidity level, is intended for fruits and vegetables. The new design of the door made it possible to make the pull-out container for vegetables completely removable and increase its volume to 23 liters. Refrigerators are equipped with displays that make it easy to operate the Super Cool, Fast Freeze, Holiday mode.

New models of Hotpoint built-in refrigerators will be on sale in June-July.
