Wave goodbye to global warming, GM and pesticides

Independent

A GROUNDBREAKING new Irish technology which could be the greatest breakthrough in agriculture since the plough is set to change the face of modern farming forever.

The technology – radio wave energised water – massively increases the output of vegetables and fruits by up to 30 per cent.

Not only are the plants much bigger but they are largely disease-resistant, meaning huge savings in expensive fertilisers and harmful pesticides.  

Extensively tested in Ireland and several other countries, the inexpensive water treatment technology is now being rolled out across the world. The technology makes GM obsolete and also addresses the whole global warmingfear that there is too much carbon dioxide in the air, by simply converting excess CO2 into edible plant mass.

Developed by Professor Austin Darragh and Dr JJ Leahy of Limerick University’s Department of Chemistry and Environmental Science, the hardy eco-friendly technology uses nothing but the natural elements of sunlight, water, carbon dioxide in the air and the minerals in the soil.

The compact biscuit-tin-sized technology, which is called Vi-Aqua – meaning ‘life water’ – converts 24 volts of electricity into a radio signal, which charges up the water via an antennae. Once the device is attached to a hose, thousands of gallons of water can be charged up in less than 10 minutes at a cost of pennies.

Speaking about the new technology, Professor Austin Darragh says:

“Vi-Aqua makes water wetter and introduces atmospheric nitrogen into the water in the form of nitrates – so it is free fertiliser. It also produces the miracle of rejuvenating the soil by invigorating soil-based micro-organisms.

“We can also make water savings of at least 30 per cent. When the water is treated it becomes a better solvent, which means it can carry more nutrients to the leaves and stem and percolate better down into the soil to nourish the roots, which in turn produces a better root system. Hence the reason you need less water and why you end up with larger and hardier crops,” explains Professor Austin Darragh.

Extensively tested in Warrenstown Agricultural College, the technology is being hailed as a modern day miracle.

Harold Lawler is Ireland’s foremost Agricultural Specialist. As Director of the National Botanical Gardens and former Master of Agricultural Science at Warrenstown Agricultural College, he has carried out more research on Vi-Aqua growth-enhancing technology than perhaps anyone else in the world:

“In the bedding plants we really saw a difference in the results; they were much hardier and tougher. You could drop a tray of these plants on the ground and they would not shatter, like ordinary plants.

“We also noticed that the treated plants needed far less fertiliser than the untreated ones. The roots took the nutrients in better whereas with other normal plants leaching of minerals occurs,” explains Harold Lawler.

Impressed, Harold Lawler’s research team carried out further extensive tests on a wide variety of vegetable plants:

“The iceberg lettuces were far superior with faster germination, and with carrots for example, the crops were on average 46 per cent heavier,” explains Harold Lawler.

During recent successful tomato crop field trials in Italy, three of the country’s largest Agricultural Co-op’s were so impressed with the results that they have now decided to recommend the technology to the country’s farming community.

Elsewhere, the Indian government have now concluded their own tests, which confirm that they are able to boost tea (plant) production by over a third while using far less water.

In recognition of the groundbreaking technology, the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew, London, recently took the hitherto unheard-of step of granting Professor Austin Darragh and his team the right to use their official centuries-old coat of arms on the new technology – the first time ever that Kew Gardens has afforded anyone such an honour.

The Kew Gardens botanists were not just impressed with the research; they used the technology to restore to life a very rare orchid which had been lying dormant and practically dead in a greenhouse bell jar since 1942. Amazingly, the orchid is now flourishing once again.

Intriguingly, chickens and sheep fed the energised water turned into giants. . . but that’s another story!

Limerick University off- campus company ZPM Europe Ltd, who are based in the National Technology Park, Limerick, is now manufacturing the Vi-Aqua technology.

  1. What a promising breakthrough!

    Perhaps “Vi-Aqua” is the ultimate (unknown) reason why everyone, including Monsanto executives, are dumping their GMO stocks.

    I presume that other GMO seed producers, like DuPont, may rethink their investment plans in Genetic Modified Organisms. That is, unless DuPont can discredit this new Vi-Aqua technology with disinformation, just like they did with hemp cannabis in 1937.

  2. Wow, if this really works, MonSANTAo will be up a creek.

    What to do with all that poison they’ve engineered? Dump it on the 3rd world thru the use of scum politicians entering into agreements like the upcoming ‘Trans-Pacific Partnership’ which will make the job-crushing NAFTA seem tame by comparison.

    And yes, I’m including the USA in the category of 3rd world nations.

  3. Think about the limitless supply of fuel based on this type of technology.
    In Brazil they use sugar cane and molasses to make ethanol.
    If this works as I am reading it you might be able to see tree size sugar cane stalks. Never mind the use of hemp oil to make diesel. This is an entire game changer for the current poisoned system. The only problem will continue to be greed.

  4. Yea, this sounds good but they said that that GMO crap was good too an look at how that turned out. I do not trust anything that promises such great yeilds and good results…. Why not just grow the plants and animals the natural way and quit trying to exploit nature.

    1. Digger
      I agree with you,
      As humans we all have some inquisitive/constructive nature some more than others. We originally were using sticks and rocks to hunt for food which could still work today except we have been able to construct objects that make this job much easier. Was it the right thing to do prob not as it has brought untold suffering around the world via war. As much as I would like to say just let it grow the ability to make plants perform better is a science just as making the body perform better is. If this is something that can improve the ability of a plant to perform better without chemical, genetic or as some athletes do to stimulate growth then it should be studied at the very least. The hunger situation around the world could be totally eliminated if this works as intended with no side effects. As much as I go all natural with somethings 😉 growing under lamps in a warehouse produces some spectacular results just about every time.
      We have continued to attempt to control our environment this is just another step(food wise) for instance instead of heating your home with just wood we moved to cleaner more efficient things like geothermal heating and cooling.

  5. Imagine what it could do for hemp production. This would be beneficial for fuel, paper, cellulose plastics, medicines & supplemental food nutrients.

  6. I just contacted them to get a price per unit cost. I will get one and try it out. I will also see if it makes an aquaponics system grow bigger fish.

  7. Hey everyone, yes this sounds wonderful and I’m all for this type of research and technology, BUT, The corporations mentioned above have unlimited funds to use to lobby against use of and import of technology. Anyone paying attention already knows how corrupt and special interest oriented the US Congress has become. So a good use of time would be to use your voices while we still can to change the “status quo” in Washington, because if that doesn’t happen all this becomes a mute point anyway. I do NOT mean to be a “downer”, as I love the idea of this technology, I am the guy you all can hate for my reality check.
