Electro Culture Case Study

Several experiments have already been conducted for the past years that is related to our study particularly Electro Culture. Christofloreau (1925), a French farmer, has attracted attention with his apparatus to collect atmospheric energy for his crops. A specific example of the plant that he used in his experiment is a clover, which he compared to a normal growth of clover. With the application of the electricity through Antenna system, the growth of clover has increased to 7 feet high. He also proved that it is a great way of reducing the chance of devastating the crop by pest and disease control. Another study by Ross (1987) who did the first attempt to influence the growth rate of biological system of a plant by passing current through …show more content…
After 18 hours the dye had risen 1/4 inch in the control branches. In the treated samples dye had moved the full length of the branch and had clearly defined the channels of flow. On the other hand, Nolet (1948) found that plants react with quickened rates of germination and general development when developed under charged electrodes. Similarly, Babbitt (1900) studied that the germination of seeds increments by half affected by blue light (gave by blue glass filters). Plant essentialness is expanded, development is quickened, stem and leaf development are enhanced, and yields are expanded. Gandhare and Patwardhan (2014) conducted a research about the Electric Field Adoption for Germination Improvement. The utilization of electrostatic field prominently affected seed germination. The adaption of electrostatic field is the best strategy for seed improvement. Because of straightforwardness, this method is suitable for commercialization. The voltage inclination of 2 kV/mm, 20-second interim is the ideal value for best results. Better results are observed for more established seed parts for enhancing germination number and seed …show more content…
They used the pre-sowing treatment in the experiment. The outcome showed that first and second group yield 12.5% and 14% higher than in the control group. The pre-sowing magnetic treatment on the spring wheat seeds also helped the acceleration of the process of germination. Another study by Es’kov and Rodionov (2009) studied about how the magnetic field affect the sprouting and absorption of nutrients of the seeds of peas and winter wheat. They investigated if the magnetic field around these plants will affect their germination and growth if they strengthen or weaken the magnetic field around it using permanent magnet. They put the unlikely poles of the magnet between the seeds to change the magnetic field around it. The magnetic field fluctuation was measured using the computer measuring system BLM01 “Lmicro” . They also conducted a study wherein they studied the effects of changing magnetic field to plants. They reenacted the anomalies of natural magnetism of the Earth. They conducted the study in the seeds of peas and winter
