Soil should be teeming with life -- especially microbial life -- but intensive farming practices are degrading soils throughout the world; the associated costs of this degradation are estimated to be $6.3-10.6 trillion. Owing to ever tighter economic margins in farming, the farming community is very interested in monitoring long-term changes in soil health arising from current soil management and cropping practices. To correctly manage soil health, farmers need reliable information about the biological properties of their soils.
P.E.S. Technologies develops a device that can measure microbial activity in soil, thus determining the health of a farmer's soil.
We are developing a sensor to monitor the soil biology via soil gases to complement existing soil nutrient testing practiced by farmers to enable farmers to make soil health assessments themselves.

Healthy soils play an important role in food production, climate change mitigation, and maintaining biodiversity. However, what goes unrecognised is the role of the roots that weave their way through them, drawing nutrients, transferring carbon, providing life to the complex microbiome that lies unseen beneath our feet. Despite their importance, there are...

Recent estimates suggest that some 133 billion tons of carbon, roughly a fourth of all carbon emitted by humans since the Industrial Revolution, has been lost from soils globally.\[1\] Intensive agriculture has led to 33% of global soils becoming "acutely degraded", costing an estimated $231B p.a. globally\[2\]. Improving soil health and restoring carbon ...

PES Technologies is requesting funding to cover costs that have become necessary for the successful delivery of Innovate-UK project 105534\. Feeding 9.8 billion people in 2050 in a climate change context will depend on our skills to keep soils alive. Food production is directly correlated with soil health. To manage and improve soil health, farmers need r...

Food demand in Sub-Saharan Africa is projected to triple between 2010 and 2050 and rapid closure of the gap between current farm yields and yield potential is needed to maintain the current level of cereal self-sufficiency (approximately 80%) by 2050. Without it, the result will be massive cropland expansion with attendant biodiversity loss and greenhouse...

Globally, potato has proved a valuable and nutritious staple crop driving both food security and GDP growth. In Kenya, potato ranks second in importance, after maize, and approximately 800,000 people benefit directly from potato production. However, to date, there are several challenges facing potato production, including potato cyst nematode (PCN). PCN a...

Feeding 9.8 billion people in 2050 in a climate change context will depend on our skills to keep soils alive. Food production is directly correlated with soil health. To manage and improve soil health, farmers need reliable information about the chemical, physical and biological properties of their soils. There are methods available to assay soil nutrient...

Soil is one of the three major natural resources essential for agricultural productivity, with the other two being air and water. Soil should be teeming with life---especially microbial life---but intensive farming practices such as frequent ploughing, the removal of crop wastes and the use of heavy machinery have degraded soils throughout the world, and ...
