Tuesday, March 12, 2024

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., March 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- More than 1,000 global field and green house trials show Harpe Bioherbicide Solutions, Inc., plant extract-based herbicides provide effective control against a broad spectrum of broadleaf and grass weeds and seeds including the most challenging resistant weeds farmers face.

Key Points: 
  • The innovation comes as consumers are demanding more natural approaches to food production and farmers are having more difficulty managing yield-robbing weeds.
  • "Fewer, less effective weed control options mean reduced yields, increased costs and more pressure on farmer viability."
  • Since 1984, herbicide resistant weeds have increased by more than 600% globally and require farmers to increase spending and apply more herbicides than ever before to achieve some level of control.
  • Contact Daniel Pepitone at [email protected] to discuss Harpe Bio's role in the future of natural weed control solutions.

CTEK Shares How To Avoid Battery Drain In Record Heat

Retrieved on: 
Friday, August 4, 2023

CHICAGO, Aug. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- June and July saw record heat worldwide according to the World Meteorological Organization, and August is trending to be just as hot. As the summer heat intensifies, it's not just our bodies that need extra care and attention; our vehicle batteries also require special consideration to ensure optimal performance and reliability. With scorching temperatures and extended road trips on the horizon, it's important to understand the unique charging needs of your vehicle battery in the extreme heat.

Key Points: 
  • Heat increases the rate of chemical reactions inside the battery, causing the electrolyte to evaporate more quickly and accelerating internal corrosion.
  • In the winter, the battery needs to work harder and you won't be able to start with a discharged battery.
  • That's why many of you proactively charge and maintain your vehicle battery during the winter, to avoid breakdowns and a discharged battery.
  • Understand how heat affects your battery: As temperatures outside heat up, so does the temperature under the hood of your car, truck, or SUV.
