Rich, in Amino acids, Proteins, Lipids, Carbohydrates, Anti-oxidants, phycobiliproteins, and other valuable products, algae is being tapped as the new feedstock across industries. This Book describes how to build your own Photobioreactor to grow pure algae species (taxa). Algae, are Earths "engine" to fuel the food web. As a "primary producer," responsible for nearly half the oxygen production on Earth, the power of algae is being commercialized to produce valuable organic products. Build your own, Algae Photobioreactor (PBR) grow kit, to Cultivate valuable algal strains, and tap into the rapidly growing Algae Industry. Grow algae reliability, and repeatably, with Photobioreactor (PBR) Algae Grow Kits for controlled photosynthesis. Grow up to Four different Algal taxa using these 4-vessel Algae grow kits rated at 80 Liter total capacity. Complete with optical, mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and biological systems, photobioreactors give you complete control. Growing monocultures of algae, using photobioreactors, is useful for researchers, developers, companies, universities, and those who need to cultivate Algal monocultures with purity, and minimal cost of construction. Algae, produce valuable amino-acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and essential oils (lipids) consuming water-borne pollution for nutrients. Algae species, grown with your PBR algae grow kits, enable researchers to tap algae's enormous productivity, able to double in mass in 24 hours under exponential growth phase. Algal researchers, work to develop protocols for increased production. Growing algae converts water, in-organic compounds (CO2), and solar radiation into valuable organic molecules. This eBook is written as a resource for building your own photobioreactor, and growing valuable algal strains. This Book is written, as a resource for researchers, to construct an effective bioreactor, rated at 80 Liters, for growing algae monocultures. Isolated from contamination, these photobioreactors, offer the researcher total control of all inputs, and thermodynamic conditions, to grow a specific monoculture algal strain.

Book excerpt: How algae microfarms can help transform our food culture by growing abundant healthy food in a very small area and extend the growing season, affordably and profitably. Algae are 20 times more productive than conventional food and are well known as nutrient dense superfoods with valuable health and medical benefits. Over the past 30 years, large farms have grown algae for food, feed and fuel for thousands of useful products. Now an era of microfarms is emerging. Algae microfarms can empower people to grow healthy food in their own community for food security and self-sufficiency. Robert Henrikson founded one of the world's first and largest algae farms 35 years ago. Now the time has come to introduce the algae microfarmers who are growing algae for healthy foods in their local communities.

Book excerpt: Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) is a filamentous, tiny Cyanobacterium that gets its name from its filaments' spiral or helical structure. Spirulina is considered a superfood because of its nutritious value, which will be good to outwit malnutrition and other health-related issues. With a protein level of 63 percent dry matter, the microalga spirulina is a viable food ingredient for expanding the repertory of protein sources available for human consumption. According to studies, unique food products that are produced with the consumer in mind are the most successful. Novel product concepts using spirulina extrudates were developed based on sensory data in order to generate potentially viable consumer-oriented products since extrusion has been proved to be suitable for texturizing protein using spirulina. At the same time, it is an ideal business for farmers and young entrepreneurs. The current book is dedicated to enthusiastic entrepreneurs who want to do entrepreneurship but don't have proper guidance regarding the Spirulina Farming, Production of Value Added Products, and most importantly, their marketing. This book gives an idea about the storage and training program availability in India also.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are twenty million acres of lawns in North America. In their current form, these unproductive expanses of grass represent a significant financial and environmental cost. However, viewed through a different lens, they can also be seen as a tremendous source of opportunity. Access to land is a major barrier for many people who want to enter the agricultural sector, and urban and suburban yards have huge potential for would-be farmers wanting to become part of this growing movement. The Urban Farmer is a comprehensive, hands-on, practical manual to help you learn the techniques and business strategies you need to make a good living growing high-yield, high-value crops right in your own backyard (or someone else's). Major benefits include: Low capital investment and overhead costs Reduced need for expensive infrastructure Easy access to markets Growing food in the city means that fresh crops may travel only a few blocks from field to table, making this innovative approach the next logical step in the local food movement. Based on a scalable, easily reproduced business model, The Urban Farmer is your complete guide to minimizing risk and maximizing profit by using intensive production in small leased or borrowed spaces. Curtis Stone is the owner/operator of Green City Acres, a commercial urban farm growing vegetables for farmers markets, restaurants, and retail outlets. During his slower months, Curtis works as a public speaker, teacher, and consultant, sharing his story to inspire a new generation of farmers.
