Book Description
Learn about nature's secrets for increasing yields, accelerating growth, and protecting against droughts and other calamities. Buy now to learn the history and science behind electro-horticulture (also known as electroculture), its uses in agriculture, methods of setting up your own system, and more!In this book you will start by learning about the history of electroculture by studying the early experimenters who used "Earth Battery" technology to increase their yields from approximately 30% to 300%. Once you have an idea of the amazing successes that are possible, you'll start learning about the science behind the scenes ranging from soil science to the basics of plant electrophysiology. From there we'll cover the following topics: * The effects that electricity has on soils, microbes, and plants themselves* A comprehensive listing of the benefits of electro-horticulture* Application ideas ranging from season extension to drought protection.* Instructions on how to build a system yourself* And more!By reading this book you will get 3 things: * A thorough understanding of the science behind the remarkable effects of electroculture* A hands-on appreciation of what's possible.* Ideas for how you can apply this technology to your own garden or farm.When you're done reading and start experimenting, you can expect to see enormous returns on your investment.

Book Description
Agricultural and Horticultural Engineering: Principles, Models, Systems, and Techniques focuses on the developments in agriculture and horticulture, including the role of engineers in employing measures in the management of plants, animals, and machinery. The book first offers information on the process of surveying, including tape, compass, and aerial surveying, leveling, barometric leveling with the aneroid, plane tabling, and electronic distance measurement and electronic total. The text then takes a look at models of the environment, material properties, and the relationship between stress and strain. The publication examines workshop methods and hydraulics. Topics include soldering, electric arc welding, low temperature brazing, welding using oxygen-acetylene apparatus, hydrodynamics, and water supply requirements. The text also reviews electricity and electronics and power and thermal systems, as well as alternating voltage supplies, electrical motors, electrical safety, power and energy consumption, and the fundamental principles of electronics. The manuscript is a dependable reference for engineers and readers interested in agricultural and horticultural engineering.

Book Description
Excerpt from Electricity in Agriculture and Horticulture The cause of the astonishing development of vegetation under such conditions has hitherto been held to lie in the long day, which lasts from two to three months in these regions during their short summer. It is further sometimes supposed that this circumstance will provide the crops with more light and heat, the principal factors of vegetation. This is, however, not true, for calculation shows that the quantity, notwithstanding this long day, is less than it is, for instance, in 60 deg. Of latitude. In consequence of the low height of the sun over the horizon, the rays meet the earth in such an oblique direction that their illuminating and heating power is greatly lessened, and this power is also lessened by the great absorption in the atmosphere. Since the quantities of light and heat received are relatively smaller than in more southern regions, the cause of the rich development of the vegetables cannot lie in the long day, and must be sought elsewhere.

Book Description
J. Christofleau published his book in the 1920s after having invented a new system of electroculture using electricity in fields. Even in poor conditions, the results were amazing in terms of yields (up to 200%), shortened maturity, etc. Book for farmers, gardeners, agronomists, scientists and all people concerned by food, health and environment.
