Hola!👋 I'm Dilshan Chamara. An undergraduate University of Colombo Sri Lanka and I'm following a Biosystems Technology degree. since my major is in Biosystems Technology I felt like sharing my knowledge and experience with you guys😊

In this blog site, I will be sharing and talking about the facts, and topics under  Biosystems technology that will help you to understand more insights on each topic. By referring these blog posts, I assure anyone can get a clear idea of each topic and clear doubt without keeping any sort of doubts no longer. 

I'm about to focus more on facts related to  Biosystems technology in Agriculture🌾. For instance, Aquaculture, farming systems, Crop nutrients and management, soil science so on.

Hopefully, you guys are excited to read more facts and share knowledge in future posts. Stay tuned and keep reading 😃. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 👋

Silage preparation and fodder preservation methods.

-
Image
  Silage is a product where any green plant material is kept in a place where it can ferment in the absence of air that contains 40-45% of water. Silage is a green succulent. When the green fodders are plentiful, it is preserved as silage for farm animals. The process of conserving green fodder is called ensilage. Green silage is a palatable and nutritious type with a Dry matter of 25-35%. During this process, the fermentation of sugar forms acids and it breaks down some of the forage proteins into simpler compounds, including ammonia.   Crops: Crops that are rich in soluble sugar is suitable for ensiling. Ex: Maize, natural grass, sogam 3-3.5% of molasses is added. Stage of harvesting: Crops should be harvested between the flowering and milk stages (50%). Silo: Silo is an air tied structure designed to store and preserve high-moisture fodder as silage. When it comes to pit silos, pits are dug 2.4 to 3cm in depth and space is required for 400 kg of fodder. ...

Nanotechnology: A New Frontier in Post-Harvest Management

-
Nanotechnology is the art and science of manipulating matter at the nanoscale, where properties and phenomena differ significantly from those at a larger scale. By working with individual atoms and molecules, scientists and engineers can create materials and devices with extraordinary properties and capabilities. This cutting-edge field is transforming industries, including agriculture, with applications that promise to revolutionize food production and preservation. 1 , 2 . Understanding the Challenges of Post-Harvest Management Post-harvest losses are a significant global issue, leading to economic losses, food wastage, and nutritional deficiencies. Several factors contribute to these losses, including: Perishable nature of produce:  Fruits and vegetables have a limited shelf life. Improper handling and storage:  Damage during harvesting, transportation, and storage accelerates spoilage. Pathogens and pests:  M...

What is Biosystems technology

-
Image
                                   Basically, biology means studying life. This word derives from the Greek word where “bios” is life and “ logos” is study. system is a collection of parts that work together to complete a specific task. Hence you know that biosystem is not a simple thing. Yeah, it is a complex topic where we can talk and learn many aspects. Once you separate the parts of the car into the engine, tyers, body we can say each part as a car but once these parts are integrated, it is a car, and it functions as a car. This is very similar to a system and biosystem also functions like this. Another example is a living cell. Life is marvelous. Animals, plants and fungus are the living things that are visible. Bacteria, virus and other microorganisms are living things that are not visible to our naked eye. There are a few characteristics that are displayed by living things (life). By these....
