Comment |
California Safe Soil has a breakthrough new technology to recycle unsold food from supermarkets into fertilizer for farms. Instead of going to landfill and creating carbon dioxide and methane GHG's, our liquid fertilizer, called Harvest to Harvest (H2H), goes through the farmer's driplines or other irrigation equipment and into the root zone in the soil. H2H stimulates growth in soil organisms, which triggers increased plant root growth, flowering and fruiting. Plants need less water and fertilizer, and crop yields increase. Soil organic matter levels increase, sequestering carbon in the soil, while reducing waste and making California agriculture more sustainable. Our work has been affirmed by research at UC Davis and the UC Cooperative Extension offices. See our website, www.calsafesoil.com. We can do a lot to help California achieve its GHG reduction goals, but we need recognition and we need help to get our business from pilot to commercial stage. Thereafter, our technology can stand on its own, with no further support. Either the CalRecycle organics recycling program or the CDFA Healthy Soils Program can help. We also need the ARB to fully recognize the extent to which our process is successful in sequestering GHG's. |
