This summer, some greenhouses in the Netherlands are trying to grow tomatoes, peppers and eggplant: the sheets of organic substrates made with jute. The Holand is an important step for bioproducts, which is a traditional greenhouse. So far, the company has had the greatest success with Jute-based substrates in hydroponics and vertical agriculture.

At Greentech Amsterdam, the Holland Bioproducts presented its range of products, for greenhouse crops, jute pads as well as microgreens and jute plugs. “Right now, our main focus is hydroponics and vertical agriculture,” says sales director Sales de Haan, talking from the company’s office at the World Horti Center.

Holland Bioproducts were founded in 2017, but it brings more than fifteen years of experience to process jute. With this experience, the company develops a high quality compostable alternatives, with traditional substrates like peats and rockwools. Their products are made from a specific part of the jute plant fibers, asian (combined with other European raw materials).

Elastic crop
Jute plugs have a unique conical form and sowing sowing, because they are designed to sow and disseminate hydroponic systems. Sometimes, while they need small adjustments, accessing existing configurations, large international customers are widely used, Arjen explained. Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States, Middle East, and Australia are successfully growing in the substrates of Holland bioproducts.

For microphen farms, the Holland bioproducts provides a completely organic blue line series, adapted to the pads, crop types and harvesting method, with or without roots.

The current movement of the more elastic crop is playing in the hands of the company. Piper production, increasingly increasingly changing alternatives from traditional substrates. For this market, Holland Bioproducts has developed a substrate sheet made with jute, mixed with miscthus and other herbs.

“It’s a really mix of organic fibers,” Arjen explained. “Jute gives strength, miscanthus adds aimena and the grass gives the volume. All components are sterilized to ensure safe crop.” Parts are more suitable than peppers, tomatoes and eggplants can also grow in them.

In collaboration with the manufacturers of the system
Holland Bioproducts entered worldwide as a recently participant and became a member of the Dutch Greenhouse Delta, a network that contains many technical suppliers. “It’s very valuable for us,” Arjen says. “We explore how to adapt the system manufacturers together to make sure the systems can operate successfully with our substrates.”

Within the Dutch Delta Greenhouse, it has become an active company in the Middle East module. “We see strong growth there, like the use of peat in the pressure under pressure, is another important region of Scandinavia, where the Middle East is a key sustainability driver.”

Footprint
To measure sustainability, Holand Bioproducts had its substrates evaluated by the universities and research of Wagening. “The results showed that our substrates are very well compared. Our footprint is significantly lower,” Arjen confirmed.

The numbers are very promising, especially for sheets used in fruit vegetables. “These slabs combine the grass and miscanthus. About 70% and 80% of raw materials help maintain a low footprint.”

Scaling with a slab
Holland bioproduces are making continuous progress with its plugs and microgreen substratum, following new tests on the vegetable substrate slab. Soon, they will meet the farms to review the results of the season. “So far, the crops are growing well. Lately in heat containers, the breeders did not need to add more irrigation,” Arjen says. Looking up to 2026, the Netherlands expects to test four growers, that the slabs will be expanded to use a larger scale, and other breeders will begin with smaller rehearsals.

Arjen explained that the initial phase of the farming requires special attention. The growers cannot use the same methods applied with old substrates. However, as they are testing more crops, the growers are beginning to see the benefits of changing alternative materials. An example of jute, after use is completely composting. “This saves money to throw money costs,” Arjen says. Jute has a lower environmental impact, requiring less water than coca, and is certified according to the regulation of fertility products (FPR).

Pre-cultivated slab
To fulfill the growing request and improve local availability, the Holland bioproducts is opening a new facility in the Middle East. Here, Jute will be sterilized and processed from India and Bangladesh, improving logistics and efficiency. In the future, the company also grows the opportunity to produce plugs on the site, helping to reduce costs even more.

“But first, our priority is to know more breeders to grow jute options,” Arjen says. It is an attractive product that can help you, the Holland bioprons has just added to its range. These slabs are aimed at other garden centers and other consumer vendors, but it is the surprise of Arjen, as well as interest in professional producers. “It really wasn’t something I expected,” he admits with a smile.

World Container Index – October 09:

Drewry World Container Index (WCI) fell by 1.651% per 40 meters per container to get the lowest level from January 2024.

Transpacific transpacing work rates have been increasingly volatile this week by reflecting seasonal slowdown during the Chinese Gold Week holidays this week. From Shanghai to Los Angeles’s fees reduced by $ 2,176 per 40-meter container, and Shanghai was stable for each 3,189 $ 40 $ 40 container from Shanghai.

The Asian European Trade Work rates have recorded the decline of the ninth week, approaching the levels in front of the red maritime attack. The place of a 40-foot container is $ 1,577 from Shanghai to Rotterdam (2% drop) and $ 1,793 from Shanghai (fall% 1). Drwry expects fees to continue down next week.

DRWRY’s container is expected to weaken the balance of supply demand in the next quarter, which will cause the place to hire rates.

Psychedelics Show Promise As An ‘Entirely New Type Of Anti-Inflammatory Treatment,’ Research Suggests

“Evidence is growing in the key to managing inflammation of psychedelics, including a major driver of many chronic body diseases, depression, arthritis and heart conditions.”

Nicholas Barnes at the University of Birmingham, through dialogue

Once hippies and hallucination experiences are synonymously exploring psychedelic drugs today for their medical potential. The stigma of this era was eliminating drugs according to laws, however, moved with mental health treatments, scientists have returned to this discussed izer of medicine.

Psilocybin substances (found in magical mushrooms) and Ayahuasca are seriously taking scientists and doctors, they do not have caused perspectives, but if they have potential healing.

Initially, he focused on treating mental health conditions such as depression, which only helps the drugs prescribed today. But these studies have been expanded to internalize diseases driven by the inflammation, which can help reduce the immune system soothing.

Laboratory dishes and animal exams and animal exams, DMT, LSD can release inflammatory molecules called cytokines called cytokines. These protein molecules also rheumatoid arthritis, asthma as well as depression, in addition to increasing brain damage, after traumatic brain injury.

Advantage of steroids

But these drugs have a great advantage over the typical anti-infinite medications against steroids, because psychedelics work because it works without removing healthy immune function, which is the main problem with steroids.

Important, these lab findings are beginning to confirm in human studies. The evidence is growing the key to managing inflammation of psychedelics, including one of many chronic body diseases, including depression, arthritis and heart conditions.

Take the active ingredient in psilocybin, magic mushrooms. In a study with 60 healthy participants, only one dose was enough for two inflammatory molecule-tnf-alpha and IL-6-6-6 – next week.

However, not all studies show the same light results. Some people only had a few participants and others were complex because some participants had previous drug experience, which may affect results.

It is a great challenge to learn psychedelic in medicine research because it is very difficult to get real drugs and hide the placebo. When someone has a great psychedelic experience, it’s obvious that they didn’t take the sugar pill.

This challenges to interpret the results, especially aspects such as moods, which can significantly cause expectations. Changes in the body, too, can cause such inflammation, this placebo effect.

Meanwhile, the Amazonian Brew with the DMT psychedelic drug showed the promising results of people with hard depression and patients. In a study, those provided by Ayahuasca reduced the level of an inflammatory marker called CRP.

The higher the CRP drop, the greater the improvements in humor. This suggests that reducing inflammation can lead to improving mental health and conditions like depression and schizophrenia are related to inflammation of the body.

Scientists believe that psychedelic is especially true for 5-HT2A recipient, a part of the brain cells that usually responds to serotonin, called the “happy hormone”.

This recipient establishes a chain of chemical reactions within the cells. Here are the amazing parts: inflammatory effects against psychedelicism would not rely on the same processes that cause mind to change mind experiences, such as some calcium signals and other well-studied means. In fact, researchers believe that different mechanisms that are not understood can be involved, though yet invented.

In an analysis of the anxiety of asthma, there were two drugs with similar psychedelic effects, (R) -Do (R) -Dotfm, different results against anti-inflamity. The first drug was completely reversed swelling, and the other did nothing. This even more suggests that anti-inflammatory effects can be separated from psychedelic effects, opening the door to develop more safier medication.

The next generation of inflammatory anti-inflammatory pipi-psychedelic drug-psychedelic drugs come from I call. These are medications designed to imitate the therapeutic benefits of psychedelics, without causing hallucinations.

Several drugs have been identified, such as DLX-001 and DLX-159, Delix Therapeutics, developing the American Pharmaceutical Company. These experimental drugs show answers that represent antidepressive effects of “travel without affecting. Inflammation could be transformed into many conditions related to inflammation, without the reluctance of a regulatory complication or patient associated with psychedelic.

Although research in the early stages, evidence is being built in psychedelic or new drugs developed, can become a completely new type of inflammatory anti-inflammatory. People with long-term inflammatory diseases begin and use more stringent and innovative placebo-controlled designs, we can think of immersing the world in the world of psychedelism to be unexpected diseases.

The potential of the hallucinogenic effects flows treatment for many patients with the conditions that inflammation complies with the fundamental role.

As part of the State Budget, the dispenser marijuana is in the face of 24% tax and among the producers. Michigan dispensers will have to pay additional tax on top of 10% tax. The new wholesale tax obtains marijuana sales between growers and dispensers. The money in this new tax will go to state roads.

In a statement, Kelsey Potes says Cannabis Cannabis Cannabis company:

“Michigan’s roads would not argue. The worry is why the money is required why it is required. It is still demanding this industry cost.”

Michigan’s top dispensers like Mikez Cannabis can also create the cost. Maxwell Mraz is a member of Crystal Falls. He says, price rides are expected among many businesses.
