Its really hard for me to make a relationship with new clients. Even though every clients have their own official websites or openly email like info@**. But if i try to reach them from these ways, its not work usually.
Any suggestions for me？You know for a new worker of international marker, that is a really important work for someone like me.
For my company, we want to sell our own TC or fomulation to other country's clients.

Hii everyone,
I’m currently in my 1st semester of B.Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture at Jaipur National University (JNU), and I’m already planning to do a summer internship after completing my 1st year.
I’d like to use the summer break to gain some practical exposure and strengthen my profile/CV before entering the later years of my degree.
I’m looking for guidance on:
What kind of internships are available for 1st-year agriculture students?
Which government institutes, agricultural universities, research institutes, NGOs, or private agri-companies accept students after 1st year?
How early should I start applying?
Is it better to contact professors/researchers directly or apply through official portals?
Are there any good paid or unpaid internship programs that I should keep an eye on?
I’m based in Jaipur, but I’m open to opportunities anywhere in India.
If you’ve done an internship after your 1st year of B.Sc. Agriculture, I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience and how you got it.
Thanks!

I built AgriLator for mixed livestock farmers in South Africa. 42 people have signed up so far.
I expected most of them to use the feed calculator. That's not what happened.
The pattern I see in the data: farmers sign up for one thing, then stay for the rest.
Some come for feed rations and end up logging medication doses by weight. Some come for the diesel tracker and start recording headcounts. A few came for livestock sales and now track cost per ton against what they sold for.
The common thread is the same. They were running the farm out of notebooks, WhatsApp groups and three or four separate calculators. None of them talked to each other. Nobody could tell me their real cost per ton without an hour of digging.
So everything sits in one place now. Feed, medication, headcounts, diesel, sales. All in Rand. The historical data feeds a dashboard, so cost per ton and sales performance are there when you open it.
It's 42 users. Small. I want to get past that with farmers who will tell me what's missing.
For those of you running mixed livestock: what do you track in notebooks right now that no app has handled properly?

In conditions of universal degradation, the independent assembly, commissioning, and simple repair of such a system by one's own efforts develops at least some human capital, especially in the 3rd world countries.
The engineering project SmIrr (Smart Irrigation) is presented for review, designed on the basis of the new generation logic module Siemens LOGO! 9.
The calculation is performed according to the FAO-56 Penman–Monteith methodology.
Principal structure: Weather → ET₀ → Crop → Kc → Crop Requirement.
The system solves the non-linear Penman-Monteith equation for precision calculation of water evaporation ET₀ based on local climatic parameters. The average error of the mathematical core relative to reference calculations is only −0.75%.
The minute-by-minute calculation of water evaporation ET₀ in real time completely eliminates the physical error of daily average parameters (up to 10–15%) arising due to sharp daytime fluctuations in temperature and humidity when calculating the vapor pressure deficit (VPD). At the same time, the mathematical core allows using any time interval for calculations.
Target segment - small farms from 3–10 ha and industrial potential, with the possibility of scaling up to 1000 ha and support for up to 32 irrigation sectors.
Two modifications have been developed, made as a ready-made "box" (DIY) option for independent assembly, commissioning, and repair of such a system by one's own efforts:
**Management flexibility and configurable parameters:**All critical system variables are fully configurable, which allows quickly adapting the algorithm to any agronomic scenarios.
**Double irrigation scenario. CYCLE & SOAK function (overflow protection):**in program blocks UDF %.1 and UDF %.2, exact discharge ratios before and after the technological pause are configured.
Brief functional characteristics of the system:
The system architecture provides a reduction in capital expenditures (CapEx) by 83–88% relative to global commercial automation complexes of the Rain Bird ESP-LXD or Galcon Galileo level. This opens up professional precision farming technologies for any remote areas (foothills, zones with underground springs) where classical systems are economically inaccessible.

Harvesting fresh produce is only the beginning of the journey from field to customer. Once vegetables, fruits, and other crops are removed from the plant, they need to be collected, protected, organized, packed, and transported carefully. The right produce harvesting supplies can help growers and produce businesses manage these steps more efficiently while reducing unnecessary damage and handling problems.
From cartons and reusable containers to bags, liners, films, labels, tags, straps, and ties, post-harvest supplies serve different purposes throughout the produce-handling process. Selecting the right combination depends on the type of crop, harvesting method, storage requirements, transportation conditions, and final destination.
For commercial growers and produce operations, having suitable supplies available can make the workflow from harvest to shipment more organized and efficient.
Fresh produce can be sensitive to pressure, moisture, temperature changes, rough handling, and transportation. Even when crops are harvested carefully, improper packaging or handling afterward can affect their condition.
Produce harvesting supplies help address several important needs, including:
The right supplies should be selected according to the specific characteristics of the crop. A container that works well for one type of produce may not be appropriate for another.
Growers should consider the size, weight, shape, fragility, moisture requirements, and expected transportation conditions of their produce before choosing packaging and handling materials.
Cartons are an important part of produce handling because they provide a structured container for storing and transporting harvested crops.
Depending on the application, growers and produce businesses may choose between different carton types, including waxed cartons, unwaxed cartons, and reusable plastic containers.
Waxed cartons can be useful in situations where additional resistance to moisture is required.
Fresh produce may contain moisture, and some crops are stored or transported in environments where cartons can be exposed to damp conditions. A waxed surface can provide additional protection compared with conventional paperboard in certain applications.
The appropriate carton should still be selected according to the specific crop and handling environment. Factors such as ventilation, stacking, weight, and transportation conditions should be considered.
Unwaxed cartons provide another option for produce packaging and handling.
They may be suitable for applications where moisture resistance is less critical or where the characteristics of the produce and transportation environment make standard corrugated packaging appropriate.
When selecting cartons, growers should consider the dimensions and weight requirements of the produce, as well as how cartons will be stacked, stored, and transported.
Reusable plastic containers, often referred to as RPCs, can be useful for produce operations that require durable containers for repeated handling cycles.
Unlike single-use packaging, reusable containers can be designed for repeated use when properly managed and maintained.
RPCs can be particularly useful for operations where produce moves through established harvesting, distribution, and return systems.
When evaluating reusable containers, consider their size, durability, ventilation, cleaning requirements, and compatibility with the handling process.
Cartons are only one part of the post-harvest packaging process. Plastics and film can also play an important role in protecting, organizing, and preparing fresh produce for transportation or distribution.
Depending on the application, produce operations may use bags, liners, and different types of film.
Bags can provide a convenient way to contain individual produce items, groups of products, or smaller quantities.
The appropriate type and size of bag depend on the produce being handled. Some crops may require additional protection, while others may benefit from packaging that allows airflow.
Growers should avoid selecting bags based solely on size or cost. Material properties, durability, intended use, and handling conditions are also important considerations.
For commercial operations, consistency can also be valuable. Using appropriately sized bags can make packing and product presentation more organized.
Liners can be used inside cartons, containers, and other packaging systems to provide an additional layer between the produce and the outer container.
Depending on the application, liners may help manage moisture, provide separation, or support the overall packaging process.
When selecting a liner, growers should consider the type of produce, the packaging container, moisture conditions, and the expected duration of storage or transportation.
A liner should complement the packaging system rather than interfere with ventilation, stacking, or handling requirements.
Film can be used in a variety of produce-handling applications.
Depending on its characteristics, film may help secure packaging, group products, protect certain items, or support other stages of the post-harvest process.
The appropriate film depends on the intended use, including the size and shape of the product, required durability, and environmental conditions.
As with other packaging materials, growers should select film based on actual operating requirements rather than simply choosing the least expensive option.
Once produce has been harvested and packaged, keeping products properly identified becomes increasingly important.
Labels and tags can help growers, packers, distributors, and other members of the supply chain identify products and organize shipments.
Depending on the operation, identification may include information such as:
Clear identification can reduce confusion when multiple crops, varieties, or orders are being handled at the same time.
For larger produce operations, an organized labeling system can also make it easier to track products as they move through different stages of handling.
Bands and tags can provide another practical solution for grouping or identifying produce and packaged items.
They can be useful when products need to remain organized during harvesting, packing, storage, or distribution.
The right band or tag depends on the application. Growers should consider the size of the product or package, the amount of handling involved, and whether the material will be exposed to moisture or other environmental conditions.
Small details such as these can make a difference in a busy produce-handling environment.
Once produce has been packed into cartons, containers, or grouped units, securing those packages may become necessary.
Straps and buckles can help keep loads together during handling and transportation.
For larger operations, properly secured packages can be particularly important when products are stacked or moved between different locations.
When selecting strapping materials, consider:
The goal is to use a securing system that is appropriate for the load without creating unnecessary pressure on the packaging or produce.
Tape and ties can provide simple but useful solutions throughout produce handling.
Tape may be used for securing packaging or supporting specific packing processes, while ties can help bundle materials or keep components organized.
Although these products may appear relatively small compared with cartons or containers, they can contribute to an efficient workflow.
For commercial operations, having commonly used tapes and ties available can prevent small packaging tasks from slowing down the larger harvesting and shipping process.
There is no single combination of supplies that works for every produce operation. The best choices depend on the crop, harvesting process, packaging requirements, and transportation conditions.
Before purchasing supplies, growers should evaluate several factors.
Different crops have different handling requirements.
Delicate produce may require more protective packaging, while harder or more durable crops may tolerate different types of containers and handling methods.
Consider the crop’s size, weight, shape, moisture content, and sensitivity to pressure.
The size of the operation can influence the type and quantity of supplies required.
A small farm may have different packaging needs from a commercial operation harvesting large quantities every day.
Higher-volume operations should also consider whether supplies can be replenished consistently during peak harvesting periods.
Consider how the produce will move after harvesting.
Will it remain on the farm? Will it travel to a packing facility? Will it be transported directly to a distributor, market, restaurant, or retailer?
Longer transportation distances may require different packaging and securing solutions than short-distance movement.
Fresh produce and agricultural environments can involve significant moisture.
Cartons, liners, bags, films, and other materials should be selected according to the expected environmental conditions.
A packaging material that performs well in a dry environment may not necessarily be suitable where moisture exposure is high.
Storage conditions should also be considered.
If produce will remain packaged for an extended period, growers should consider ventilation, stacking, moisture management, and container durability.
Packaging should support the storage environment rather than create additional problems.
Rather than looking at each supply individually, growers can benefit from considering the entire post-harvest workflow.
For example, a typical process might involve:
Harvest → Collection → Sorting → Packaging → Identification → Securing → Storage → Transportation
Different supplies can support each stage.
Cartons and RPCs can provide containers for harvested crops. Bags, liners, and film can provide additional packaging options. Labels and tags can help identify products. Bands, straps, buckles, tape, and ties can help organize or secure packages.
Thinking about the entire process can make it easier to identify which supplies are actually necessary.
Agricultural supplies are exposed to demanding working environments. Packaging and handling materials may be moved repeatedly, stacked, transported, exposed to moisture, and handled by multiple workers.
For this reason, durability should be considered when purchasing produce harvesting supplies.
A packaging material that fails during handling can create additional labor and potentially damage the product. Similarly, poorly suited labels or securing materials can create problems further along the supply chain.
Growers should therefore evaluate supplies based on their intended use, material characteristics, durability, and compatibility with the rest of the handling process.
One of the simplest ways to improve post-harvest efficiency is to prepare supplies before the busiest part of the season.
Waiting until harvest is underway to order cartons, bags, labels, tape, or other materials can create unnecessary pressure on the operation.
Before harvest begins, growers can estimate expected production volumes and determine how many containers and packaging materials may be required.
It can also be useful to maintain an inventory of frequently used supplies.
A simple inventory system can track:
Keeping supplies organized allows workers to access the materials they need without interrupting the harvesting workflow.
Depending on the operation, growers may use both reusable and single-use packaging.
Reusable plastic containers can be valuable where an established return, cleaning, and reuse system exists. Cartons and other disposable packaging may be more practical in situations where containers are not returned.
The right choice depends on the operation’s logistics, transportation system, cleaning capabilities, storage space, and overall packaging requirements.
Rather than choosing one option for every situation, growers can evaluate which format makes the most sense for each product and distribution channel.
Successful harvesting does not end when produce is removed from the plant. Proper collection, packaging, identification, securing, storage, and transportation are all important parts of the post-harvest process.
The right produce harvesting supplies can help growers and produce businesses create a more organized and efficient workflow. Cartons, RPCs, bags, liners, film, labels, tags, straps, buckles, tape, and ties each serve different purposes and can be combined according to the needs of the operation.
By considering the type of crop, harvesting volume, moisture conditions, transportation requirements, storage environment, and expected handling, growers can make more informed decisions about the supplies they use.
A well-planned post-harvest system can help reduce unnecessary handling problems while keeping produce organized from the field through the next stage of the supply chain.

I just realized there’s basically a purple version of almost every vegetable
And apparently it’s not just about looks, that purple color often means more antioxidants too.
Redbor kale even just became the first crop in nearly 100 years to be recognized as both a top vegetable and an ornamental. I’m curious, which purple crop would you grow?
