The document discusses the impacts of the Green Revolution on agriculture and the environment. It notes that while the Green Revolution initially increased food productivity, it did so through heavy reliance on synthetic fertilizers and pesticides which caused problems over time including pest resistance, soil degradation, and health issues. It then introduces humic acid as a solution to improve soil and plant health without chemicals. Finally, it discusses the work of GreenFoot EcoHealth Initiatives in promoting natural and sustainable agricultural practices to address issues caused by intensive chemical usage while increasing yields and farmer incomes.
The green revolution is the significant increase in agricultural productivity resulting from the introduction of high - yield varieties of grains, use of pesticides , and improved management techniques.

Growing Green: Elevating Crop Health Through Sustainable Fertilizer UpgradesNAQ Global
A resilient, productive, and long-term agricultural system depends on the transition to sustainable fertilizer upgrades, which in itself is a significant environmental issue. We are laying the groundwork for a future where both humanity and the planet can prosper by adopting eco-friendly solutions.
What are the Organic Fertilizers Used in AgricultureShivaniPadole
Natural fertilizers derived from animals and plants are known as organic fertilizers. Carbonic compounds, which are necessary for plant growth, are added to the soil as a result. Organic fertilizers alter the physical and chemical properties of the soil, encourage microorganism reproduction, and raise the amount of organic matter in the soil. It is viewed as one of the primary supplements for green food. These pesticides can be induced genetically in plants through genetic engineering or can be found naturally in microorganisms. Soil contamination and pollution from a variety of chemicals, like fluoroacetamide, can be avoided by using Biopesticides. Additionally, they are less likely to irritate animal and human skin.
An Overview of Sustainable Fertilizer Developments.pdfNAQ Global
Fertilizers are crucial to sustainable agriculture. Traditional fertilizers, however, frequently have negative environmental effects, such as soil deterioration and carbon emissions. This is where the idea of using green technology to create sustainable fertilizer comes into play. This blog examines developments in sustainable fertilizer technology, with an emphasis on lowering carbon footprints and enhancing fertilizer quality.
Shove is a 360 degree solution for all the issues related to soil. It increases the fertility of soil as well as gives a better taste and shelf life to all the crops.
Sustainable farming or, in a broader term, Sustainable agriculture is using farming practices considering the ecological cycles. It is also sensitive towards the microorganisms and their equations with the environment at large. In simpler terms, sustainable farming is farming ecologically by promoting methods and practices that are economically viable, environmentally sound and protect public health.
Sustainable farming or Sustainable agriculture helps the farmers innovate and employ recycling methods, apart from the conventional perks of farming. A very good example of recycling in sustainable farming would be crop waste or animal manure. The same can be transformed into fertilizers that can help enrich the soil.Another method that can be employed is crop rotation. This helps the soil maintain its nutrients and keeps the soil rich and potent. Collection of rainwater via channeling and then its utilization for irrigation is also a good example of sustainable farming practices.
UltraShield GENESIS is the ultimate result of 30 odd years of study of Natural Balance to learn how to reproduce the natural stimulants that make the real difference in farming. "Optimized" farm operations increase their yeald with GENESIS 30+% within one crop cycle. Many caste studies and referal are available for interested owners, operators and consultants.

Manufacture of Organic Manure. Biofertilizer Production. Recycling of Solid Wastes into Organic Fertilizer.
Organic fertilizers are fertilizers derived from animal matter, animal waste product (manure), human waste product, and matter (e.g. compost and crop residues). Naturally organic fertilizers embrace animal wastes from meat process, peat, manure, slurry, and guano. The majority of fertilizers used in commercial farming are extracted from minerals (e.g., phosphate rock) or made industrially (e.g., ammonia). Organic agriculture, a system of farming.
Examples of naturally organic fertilizers embrace manure, slurry, worm castings, peat, alga and organic fertilizer. Green manure crops also are grownup to feature nutrients to the soil. Naturally minerals like mine rock phosphate, sulfate of potash and limestone also are thought of Organic Fertilizers. Examples of factory-made organic fertilizers include compost, bloodmeal, bone meal and algae extracts. Different examples are natural catalyst digestible proteins, fish meal, and feather meal.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity
Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
2. GREEN REVOLUTION
• The Green Revolution was the technological response to a world-wide
food shortage which became threatening in the period after World War II.
• The advent of Green Revolution introduced by Norman Borlaug in the
1960s saw a paradigm shift in the agricultural practices the world over.
• With food security becoming a serious matter of concern, something
magical had to be done.
• With the introduction of Hybrid Seeds, Improved irrigation systems,
Improvised machinery,
• Substantial use of synthetic fertilizers and chemicals and high dependence
on Pesticides the food productivity graph shot up to dizzy heights in no time.

3. BOON OR BANE?
The lush productivity brought with it a host of pests and pest related
problems. Changing pest morphology made the pests develop
resistance to various chemicals within short time.
Two to Three decades down the line people world over were beginning
to wonder whether this Revolution was indeed a BOON or a BANE?
The biggest problems the Green revolution brought about were :
• Presence of some dangerous forms of pests
• Pesticides lead to diseases in humans
• Does not help increase the fertility of the soil
• Leads to land and soil degradation
• Affects agricultural biodiversity
• Serious risk of some form of cancer
• Over dependence on artificial fertilizers

4. EVIDENT EFFECTS
OF THE GREEN
REVOLUTION
• Children in Kasargod, Kerala, India where a pesticide called Endosulfan
• was sprayed excessively for years together causing birth defects and
• various other diseases in children and the generations to follow.
• Endosulfan has now been banned by the Govt. of India.
• Soil as hard as rock, with no space for water or aeration. This is the long-
term effect of chemical fertilizers on the soil.

5. HUMIC ACID – THE SOLUTION
Even if your soil is in marginal condition, Humic Acids can
improve its performance.
Although fertilizer provides a good source of nutrients to
plants, it rarely offers any benefits to the soil. When Humic
Acids are applied to sandy soil, they help it retain water and
provide organic matter, both of which are essential to good
plant growth.
Some fertilizers are mobile within soil, potentially leaching
out of root zones in sandy soil. These fertilizers can be held
for longer periods of time in the root zone with the assistance
of granular Humic Acids, which will allow plants to absorb
more nutrients.
In compacted soils or hard pan, adding Humic Acid can help
break up such soils, allowing the available nutrients to reach
deeper into the root zone.
5GreenFoot EcoHealth Initiatives Pvt. Ltd.
6. EFFECT OF HUMIC ACIDS ON MICRO ORGANISMS
The incorporation of Humic Acid fractions in media
designed for the enumeration of soil micro-organisms
belonging to specific physiological groups was found to
result for some groups in appreciably higher counts.
It is suggested that by influencing the enzyme systems of
certain micro-organisms, humic compounds may affect
the range of substrates which they can utilize.
In simpler terms, Humic acids aids in boosting the micro
organism activity in the soil.

7. WHERE DOES GREEN FOOT FIT IN?
The idea is to make a plant improve its natural immunity
towards pests, increase productivity and reduce farmer
costs - all of these without any use of chemicals. An arduous
task, but not impossible.
It was here, where Greenfoot Ecohealth Initiatives Pvt. Ltd.
came into existence.
In this scenario of commendable yet regrettable past and
faint future, we at Greenfoot have been striving to create
awareness to embrace natural practices in all walks of life
just as our forefathers had done for a healthy living so as to
leave a bright future for the generations to come.
We are the pioneers to bring forth the importance of soil
health today. We not only market certified organic inputs
but also impress the logic behind every action. All our
products not only have the power of nature packed in them
but the logical application of these in small quantities
produce magical results within short period of time.

8. Sustainable Agriculture
8
Sustainable agriculture is at the heart of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable
Development Goals and is the first fundamental step to securing zero hunger.
There has been considerable discussion over the past thirty years on how to
define “sustainable agriculture”. In the past, it had been defined primarily along
environmental criteria. If the soil was bad, or if water was not managed well, then
a farm might have been considered unsustainable. In recent years, however, there
has been a realization that being sustainable reaches much further, to include
economic and social dimensions, and putting farmers in the center. If a farm is not
economically sound or not resilient to external shocks, or if the well-being of
those working on a farm are not considered, then a farm cannot be sustainable.
We at Green Foot are committed to make a difference to the world by offering
solutions to make this SDG a reality.
