Farmers raise crops and livestock to provide us with food, feed, and clothing. Their primary concern should be producing quality plants and healthier animals and this can possibly be done by introducing PEMF farming.

The world’s population is multiplying at a rapid pace. Farmers need to increase their production by 50% to satisfy the hunger of the growing community. Feeding the communities by the increase of farming production can be accomplished by using advanced technologies.

Farming technologies will assist in production. Pulsed Electromagnetic Frequency (PEMF) is a new option. Farmers should considered this in farming to enhance quality and production.

PEMF is an innovative approach to sustainable farming. It involves the process of oxidation and detoxification. This will energize the cell and improves the permeability of the cell membrane. It accelerates the metabolic and enzymatic activities in the cell-stimulating the production and productivity of living. This technique is eco-friendly and nondestructive.

Let’s discuss are the application of PEMF farming for crops and animals.

PEMF IN FARMING PLANTS

Crop plants are of vital importance to the farming community. Magnetic field application will improve the plant’s characteristics from germination to yielding stages. Seeds can be treated with PEMF before planting.

Exposure to PEMF will boost up the seed vigour, germination rate(1), photosynthetic rate and vegetative growth. The plant will become more absorptive to mineral and fertilizer responsive. It diminishes the demand of over application of inputs to the soil.

PEMF will enhance the Enzymatic activity and protein contents. There has been an observation that barley have a higher nutritive value after treatment. These treatments are producing an increase in phosphorous and lycopene within tomato leaves.

Plants have many problems which needs to be managed by farmers. Some of these issues are pathological and pathogens. The PEMF farming theraphy assists in treating pathological problems and provide resistance against pathogens.

Infections occur in some plants. Potato crop grown after PEMF treatment shows a reduction in the infection rate of early blight of potato.

Plants roots tend to behave differently under the north and south magnetic poles. This research in farming with PEMF will influence the root growth; the root system expands deeper to get maximum moisture.

An example is the extensive root system of cotton that has been developed after PEMF exposure.

These factors ultimately increase yield per plant. Tomatoes resulted in more leaves per plant. The tomato fruit size has increased. Treating In mung beans has increased the yield and taste. Strawberries can be produced with greater fruit size and weight.

PEMF IN FARMING ANIMALS

PEMF has been use for decades on horses and is well known in the community.

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy has only been used as a therapeutic modality for horses within the United States over the last 2 decades.

PEMF therapy originated in Europe, where there has been strong supporting research behind the methodology that agrees with its effectiveness.

Large vinyl loops that produce an electromagnetic field are placed at the horse’s problem areas. The machine is set at a frequency appropriate for the ailment. This therapy is focused on healing at a cellular level, and the pulsing effect expands and contracts the animal’s cellular membranes.

By using PEMF therapy a few improvements will be noticed.

It will create a permeable cell. It will contribute to the reduction of inflammation. The body will experience an increase in blood flow. Greater blood flow will produce healthier cells.

It uses a pulsing magnetic field to reduce pain and inflammation. The modality has the potential to penetrate deep within the body with higher frequencies.

PEMF theraphy does not have a direct analgesic effect. This allows the animal to return to preforming without any concern of masking pain and worsening an injury (Gaynor 2018). 

The recommended sessions per week is three for maximum benefit.

 There is a vast list of debilitating issues that this therapy has proven to assist with. It ranges from tendon and ligament strains, osteoarthritis, to speeding up healing time on fractures. Horses can receive treatment without sedation. They usually enjoy the process.

ANIMAL HEALTH

Farmers compromise a lot on animal health. Injuries, wounds, and diseases are a significant problem affecting animal performance and production. PEMF is a non-invasive technique to improve the health of the animal.

It improves blood circulation and stimulates the metabolic processes. By using PEMF for the treatment of diseases, injury or depression in animals, they will have healthier for human consumption. It is quite a safe therapy which promotes healing of the wounds and reduces inflammation.

PEMF FARMING gives relief from pain without using any drugs. It improves muscle strength and mental health condition. It will boost up the mood swing of your animal which assist with appetite and agility.  PEMF therapy enhances the drug absorption efficiency of animals.

CONCLUSION

fARMING WITH PEMF is an efficient and effective way to increase the production output from crops, livestock and pets. It is ecologically and economically feasible approach. Farmers should be using it to get more yield without any adverse effect on the environment.
