Be just to the earth; for the good of all beings.

善待土地 ‧ 惠澤眾生

HomelandGreen is a group of Hong Kong volunteers learning to live harmoniously with soil that nurtures all lives. We take part in greening projects and pursue agricultural practices that promote soil health.

Our Focus …

Land Restoration

It is a fact that sand from northern deserts in China reaches South East Asia and even North America in the same way sand from the Sahara reaches Europe every year. Tree planting expeditions are organized to stop the encroaching deserts and rehabilitate the degraded land. Join our study and tree planing trips and have an amazing experience.

Services

Conduct research projects in regenerative farming, share results and findings with local practitioners to produce environmental friendly, cost effective nutritional farm products with scientific approach. Correct farming practices would not deplete soil. Rather it increases nutritional value of produce, supports soil rehabilitation and carbon sequestration for addressing global warming issues.

Learning

We learn so much from expert scientists around the globe and finally come to grasp the soil science and biology of Mother Nature. Here we share our findings to get the public to change the view on soil, how plants grow healthily, and ultimately our way of life.

細胞質流動:巨型藻類細胞內的主動運輸www.linkedin.com/posts/m-slota_cytoplasmic-streaming-active-transport-inside-ugcPost-748797821082...Nitella(輪藻)是一種淡水綠藻,具有異常巨大的節間細胞。其細胞體積大且透明,使細胞質的持續流動在光學顯微鏡下清晰可見。這種運動稱為細胞質流動(cytoplasmic streaming)。它沿著細長的細胞不斷運輸細胞質內容物,包括細胞器與代謝物。此流動由肌球蛋白(myosin)馬達蛋白與平行排列的肌動蛋白(actin)絲束之間的相互作用所產生。與肌球蛋白相關的內膜系統沿著這些細胞「軌道」移動,帶動周圍細胞質前進。在輪藻內部,細胞質沿細胞縱向呈相反方向流動,兩者之間由一條不含葉綠體的界面分隔,稱為「中性區」(indifferent zone)。葉綠體停留在靜止的皮層層(cortical layer)中,而內部細胞質與液泡汁則持續流動。細胞質流動不僅是細胞內的循環。在輪藻中的量測顯示,流動中的濃度梯度可透過 Taylor–Aris 擴散效應增強細胞質溶膠的混合,使分子分布效率超越單純的布朗運動擴散。輪藻展示了大型細胞如何透過主動循環其內部環境,克服擴散速度緩慢的限制。影片:輪藻(Nitella sp.)中的細胞質流動,明場顯微鏡與微分干涉D(IC對)比(影像來源:Charles Krebs)。中譯由綠蔭家園提供。 ...

菌根孢子活性測試www.linkedin.com/posts/vikki-kumar-063013414_mycorrhiza-soilhealth-sustainableagriculture-share-7...菌根孢子活性測試 🔬在顯微鏡下進行的菌根孢子品質檢測。這個簡單的測試可確保農夫只獲得高品質的接種劑。具有活性的孢子,代表更好的根系定殖、更佳的養分吸收,以及更強健的植株。我們相信,實驗室中的小步驟,能在田間產生巨大的影響。因為健康的土壤,是健康作物的基礎。粉紅色/紅色孢子 = 具活性、仍在運作中深色孢子 = 無活性為什麼這很重要?因為只有具活性的孢子才能帶來真正效果:✓ 更好的根系定殖✓ 更佳的養分與水分吸收✓ 更強壯、更健康的作物健康土壤。健康作物。健康未來。🌱中譯由綠蔭家園提供。 ...
