Patent

CA 2378571

This invention provides methods of enhancing plant growth or yield, comprising exposing soil to hydrogen gas (H2), and growing plants in the soil. The H2 gas employed can be generated by electrolysis of water, produced by H2 evolving microorganisms and/or produced by legumes. In accordance with the invention, soil can be exposed to H2 and plants then grown in it, or H2 can be applied directly to soil in which plants are already growing. In one embodiment, the invention comprises obtaining an aqueous extract from H2-treated soil, and applying the extract to soil, seeds, and or plant roots.

L'invention concerne des procédés permettant d'améliorer la croissance ou la production des plantes, consistant à exposer le sol à l'hydrogène gazeux (H¿2?) et à cultiver des plantes dans ledit sol. Le gaz H¿2? utilisé peut être obtenu par électrolyse de l'eau, produit par des micro-organismes en évolution et/ou par des légumes. Selon l'invention, le sol peut d'abord être exposé à l'hydrogène puis utilisé pour y cultiver des plantes, mais on peut également appliquer l'hydrogène à un sol dans lequel des plantes sont déjà cultivées. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'invention consiste à obtenir un extrait aqueux à partir d'un sol traité à l'hydrogène, puis à appliquer cet extrait au sol, aux graines et/ou aux racines des plantes.
