A physical mode of action pesticide for application on plants and in soils, and methods of manufacture and application, comprising an active ingredient in the form of a polymer in a concentration of less than 0. 1% wt. , a surfactant, a co-solvent and a diluent in a hydrocolloid suspension. The suspension polymer is preferably a polysaccharide having a molecular weight of 10,000 to 25,000,000, and preferably in the range of about 600,000. The pesticide preferably also includes a targeting ingredient for directing the active ingredient to a particular target.

Abstract:
An automatic vertical farming system may include a frame defining at least one growth area and configured to support a plurality of vertical plant growth structures within the at least one growth area. The system may include at least one robot disposed on a top side of the frame and movably supported by the frame. At least one robot may include at least one tool configured to manipulate the plurality of vertical plant growth structures. The system may include at least one infiltration chamber configured to contain at least one of the plurality of vertical plant growth structures and expose the vertical plant growth structure to an inoculant. The system may include a control system including at least one processor configured to automatically control operation of the at least one robot and the at least one infiltration chamber.
The present invention relates to a pesticide nano-emulsion comprising: (a) a horticultural oil as an active ingredient; (b) a mixture of inert ingredients comprising: (i) an emulsifier; (ii) a stabilizer; and (iii) a surfactant; and (c) a solvent, wherein the horticultural oil is dispersed as droplets in the solvent to form the nano-emulsion.
