What can rice stalks do to make egg boxes? The waste of mushroom fungus turns into good soil for growing strawberries.

What can agricultural environmental protection do? Mountains of rice straw and rice husks, troublesome mushroom cultivation space bag waste, can also return to agriculture to play a second role! From now until April 24, the Taichung Flower Expo Waipu Park Zhinong Museum is holding a special exhibition entitled "Sharing Nature" to learn about Taiwan's agricultural technology development.

Annoying straw into an eco-friendly egg box

Taiwan's total rice production in 107 was 1.33 million metric tons. The amount of straw produced was amazing. Because it was difficult to collect and transport, many farmers were accustomed to burning the straw most simply and quickly after harvest. In addition to causing loss of soil organic matter, the smoke produced would also pollute the air. The special exhibition exhibited the formula and production technology of straw decomposable egg boxes to improve the added value of straw. In addition, anaerobic co-fermentation of rice straw and pig manure can increase biogas production by more than twice and improve biogas power generation efficiency.

In addition to rice straw, rice husk is also a treasure, carbonized rice husk can be applied to vegetable seedling media, because it is rich in silicon and potassium, water conductivity, ventilation, specific gravity, porosity, particle size, micro-alkaline, biological inert, etc., can completely replace pearl stone as an ideal medium material, for vegetable cultivation, there is a higher value.

Mushroom Space Pack Gorgeous Turn Organic Medium Strawberry

Most mushrooms in China are cultivated in space bags, and the discarded space bags after cultivation are a great pressure on environmental protection. Miaoli Agricultural Reform Institute has developed super soil made of mushroom cultivation waste and bagasse compost as raw materials for strawberry cultivation. Because strawberries have higher oxygen demand than ordinary fruits and melons, it is appropriate to show good water permeability and high gas phase rate. Studies have found that organic media can promote the growth of strawberry plants and also improve the sugar content of fruits. It can not only improve the yield of strawberry cultivation, but also consider the safe and healthy agricultural quality. The organic waste of agricultural production can be recycled, which can not only promote sustainable agricultural management, but also maintain environmental ecology.

In addition to this series of developments in environmentally friendly agricultural technologies, the "Sharing Nature" special exhibition at the Huapo Agricultural Museum also shows the current state of undergrowth economics, pest control techniques applied by natural enemies, and the application of microbial strains and preparations. Readers who care about Taiwan's agriculture should not miss it.
