“Can we simultaneously decontaminate and cultivate? An urban cherry tomato story” with Marie-Anne Viau and Dr. Adrian Paul
Contamination of various kinds can make it difficult to ensure healthy and safe food crops in urban agriculture. Phytoremediation is a strategy where we may be able to use plants’ incredible natural abilities to help with this problem. This episode, Marie-Anne and Adrian join me to discuss harnessing phytoremediation to help clean soils for tomato crops.
Tune in to learn:
· How phytoremediation works
· How researchers process contaminated plant material
· Whether phytoremediation can help boost soil health and yields
· How phytoremediation compares to other phytoremediation methods
