BoostCrop aims to enhance crop resilience to cold stress using 'molecular heaters' that convert solar energy into heat. This innovative approach seeks to increase agricultural productivity and extend growing seasons, addressing food security challenges.
Cold and freezing stress are important constraints for crops and for horticulture.
BoostCrop seeks to reduce such stress by an invention called 'molecular heaters'.
These are nature-inspired molecules that absorb solar radiation and convert it to heat energy.
The invention would reduce yield losses due to cold stress, extend growth seasons and the geographical locations suitable for agriculture, increase crop yield at high crop density and, concomitantly, reduce greenhouse energy costs.
