  2. Cutting (plant) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_(plant)

    In propagation of detached succulent leaves and leaf cuttings, the root primordia typically emerges from the basal callous tissue after the leaf primordia emerges. [ 5 ] It was known as early as 1935 that when indolyl-3-acetic acid (IAA), also known as auxin , is applied to the stem of root cuttings, there is an increase in the average number ...

  3. Agricultural wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agricultural_wastewater...

    Agricultural wastewater treatment is a farm management agenda for controlling pollution from confined animal operations and from surface runoff that may be contaminated by chemicals in fertilizer, pesticides, animal slurry, crop residues or irrigation water. Agricultural wastewater treatment is required for continuous confined animal operations ...

  4. Grafting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafting

    Cutting tools: It is a good procedure to keep the cutting tool sharp to minimize tissue damage and clean from dirt and other substances to avoid the spread of disease. A good knife for general grafting should have a blade and handle length of about 3 inches and 4 inches respectively.

  5. Wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastewater_treatment

    Sewage treatment plant (a type of wastewater treatment plant) in La Crosse, Wisconsin. Wastewater treatment is a process which removes and eliminates contaminants from wastewater. It thus converts it into an effluent that can be returned to the water cycle. Once back in the water cycle, the effluent creates an acceptable impact on the environment.

  6. Plant propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_propagation

    Plant propagation is the process by which new plants grow from various sources, including seeds, cuttings, and other plant parts. Plant propagation can refer to both man-made and natural processes. Plant propagation can refer to both man-made and natural processes.

  7. Fruit tree propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit_tree_propagation

    Root cuttings (pieces of root cut off and induced to grow a new trunk) are also not used to propagate fruit trees, although this method is successful with some herbaceous plants. A refinement on rooting is layering. This is rooting a piece of a wood that is still attached to its parent and continues to receive nourishment from it.

  8. Drill cuttings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_cuttings

    Drill cuttings can be separated from liquid drilling fluid by shale shakers, by centrifuges, or by cyclone separators, the latter also being effective for air drilling. In cable-tool drilling, the drill cuttings are periodically bailed out of the bottom of the hole. In auger drilling, cuttings are carried to the surface on the auger flights.

  9. Root trainer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_trainer

    The Stairstep container was a design that trapped root tips to force branching and yet could be stacked. However, production costs made this container difficult to manufacture. One container designer tried “root suffocation pruning.” When a root grows into a reservoir of water at the bottom, it is suffocated. The death of the root tip ...
