  • Energy saving on the Farm

    Today we are in the era of energy conservation.Taking steps to save energy on the farm due to energy consumption by motors will helps to maintain sustainable environment.The motors of irrigation pumps on a farm should be tested every two or three years. The overall efficiency of the system also depends upon design of the irrigation system and the efficiency of all the constituent units.

    Looking for more ideas on the energy conservation in the agriculture.

    How about energy-reuse?
    Not just using less, but re-using more??

    Such as the heat generated in compost to warm a greenhouse...
    or small plants that feed fish that feed you...
    or fish poo that feeds plants that feed you...
    Um, it all takes solar power...

      Thanks for the YouTube link.
      You can saving energy on the Farm by using Motors & Irrigation Systems.Using a premium efficiency motor instead of a standard motor will help to increase efficiency by 2 to 10%.

              I've seen a different version (better quality encoding) of the plastic ford car on youtube. But it's been removed, thought I'd never see that video again. I shall be saving it for future references.

              It's funny how hemp is made out to be the product of the future when it was the product of the past 1,000+ years. We can all thank DuPont for the banning of hemp.

              I did find the report from a senate hearing, where FBI officers retold their encounters with polish immigrants. Who when faced with their hemp crop being confiscated, armed themselves to protect their crop which would become the clothes they would be using the following year.

                The Rense article is a bit lacking on the tree aspect.

                1 hemp acer replaces the need for 4 acres of trees, which would be used to make paper. Hemp goes from seed to harvest in about 90 days compared to 5 to 500 years for tress to make paper.

                With hemp you basically replace the need to ever cut down trees for paper. Plus you get better paper as a result, which require little to no chemicals that is currently used in paper making.

                  Highly Agreed with mathewrobert. We can save lot of energy using motors and Irrigation System. So we must try this system at least for one time. I assure you it would be very beneficial for everyone..

                    Another tip to save the energy(SunFusion Solar) in your farm is to test your well pumps and the overall pumping efficiency. Pumps with less than 50% efficiency should be considered for replacement or repair as they tend to consume a lot of energy.

                        GEET the tractors. Grow and make your own biofuel. GEET an engine/generator and create your own electricity.

                        These are just a couple of things on my mind that I've been trying to talk my family into doing on their farm.
                        If you've made it this far then I've finally quit rambling.

                          You do not have to prove something for it to be true. However, you do have to prove something for others to believe it true.

                            If you have a lot of organic material, by compisting it you can produce co2, good for plants growing, a lot of heat for winter and biogas for electrical production. Search jean pain thecnique, he measured the energy produced, and he concluded that YOU CAN EARN MORE ENERTY THAN BURBING THE ORNGANIC MATERIAL, it is COLD FUSION, BIOLOGY COLD FUSIONĦĦĦ

                            Jean Pain earned all the energy he needed from fores waste: cooking gas, house heat in winter, heat water, electricity, gas for his car...

                              Other uses..

                              there is something that takes the energy of the sun and can heat the water..
                              maybe when the wether is very cold or just want to heat the water...
                              is very cheap and i know you have listened about that..is the solar panels..

                              thinking about that it can be used in a faarm..here i share something where you can see how it works....: Green Products-artistic individual unique piece to be appreciated :.
