You have probably eaten a pasta dish with mushrooms or a pizza with mushrooms, but have you ever looked at mushrooms as a source of health rather than just food? Mushrooms are fungi that have been used by humans for centuries in culinary applications. Currently, more than 2,000 species of mushrooms exist in the wild, but only about 25 species are wildly consumed as food (Valverde et al., 2015). Romans used to call mushrooms “Food of the Gods”, while Chinese people referred to them as “Elixir of Life” due to their various health benefits and medicinal properties (Pardeep K. Khanna & Shivani Sharma, 2013). The aim of this newsletter is to provide a simple and cle

Spinach has always been known for its health benefits, famously containing iron and vitamins. But modern science, using tools like metabolomics, confirms that this leafy green is packed with even more powerful compounds that are vital for your health.

The impact of using biofertilizers (Bio Nova Plus and Bio Nova Q) on bean yields. A real-life success story in Berket El Sabaa, Menoufia Governorate, where yields reached 65 kg per qerat without any chemical fertilizers. Under the supervision of the Royal Green Biotech scientific team.

Agricultural productivity worldwide faces significant challenges due to potassium deficiency, despite soils containing substantial reserves of total potassium. Approximately 90-98% of soil potassium exists in insoluble forms that plants cannot directly absorb, creating a critical limitation in crop nutrition. Conventional agriculture depends heavily on synthetic potassium fertilizers to address this deficiency, but these fertilizers are expensive, environmentally problematic, and derived from finite potash reserves concentrated in only a few geographical regions. The excessive use of potassium fertilizers contributes to soil salinity, nutrient imbalances, and environ

Soil salinity refers to the concentration of soluble salts present in the soil. These salts accumulate over time through various natural and human- induced processes, and when present in high concentrations, they can severely impact agricultural productivity and plant health. The primary measurement used to assess soil salinity is Electrical Conductivity (EC), typically expressed in deciSiemens per meter (dS/m). This measurement works because dissolved salts increase the soil's ability to conduct electrical current; the more salts present, the higher the conductivity reading. Understanding where your soil falls on the salinity spectrum is crucial

Egyptian agriculture faces significant economic losses from terrestrial snail infestations, particularly in the Nile Delta region where humid conditions favor their proliferation. Land snails cause extensive damage to vegetables, ornamentals, fruit trees, and field crops throughout Egypt. These molluscan pests consume plant tissue, damage seedlings, contaminate produce, and serve as intermediate hosts for parasitic diseases affecting livestock and humans. The reliance on synthetic molluscicides containing metaldehyde or methiocarb poses serious risks to non-target organisms, beneficial insects, soil health, and water quality.
