Abstract Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) offer a promising solution for efficient and cost-effective reforestation, particularly on challenging terrains inaccessible by traditional methods. This study explores soft hydrogel technology as seed encapsulant UAV dispersal, emphasizing criteria such on-site preparation feasibility, limited (5-hour) processing window, deployment capabilities from at 3 m height. The research utilising Psyllium Husk Mucilage (PHM) was deemed to be impractical due rapid degradation prolonged stabilisation requirements. Hence, the current employed blend of bentonite micro-clay, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), sodium alginate (SA), simplifying requirements, potentially improving permeability with process, cracking. Growth germination all seeds were evaluated under 50% 90% soil field capacity (FC), mimicking dry moist conditions, compared conventional planting (C-Planted) surface sowing (C-Surface). While encapsulants successfully germinated agricultural overall they worse than C-Planted FC, C-Surface FC. Encapsulant growth performance beans also concluded reduced Cucumbers exhibited improved both moisture levels. For non-agricultural native species like C. refractus E. coolabah, CMC initially showed low rates, though addition additives microparticles (CMC-AB) notably enhanced outcomes. A. stenophylla application (CMC-B) CMC-AB properties, whilst largely had no effect properties refractus. rates attributed potential entrapment within gel matrix, limiting emergence. In conclusion, while clay-based show promise enhancement, their efficacy varies across conditions. underscores need further optimization maximize in UAV-based reforestation efforts. Graphical

Developing effective regulatory strategies to enhance irrigation water and fertilizer efficiency in the southern Xinjiang region of China, while simultaneously combatting desertification, is paramount significance. This study focuses on Chinese jujube presents findings from a two-year field experiment aimed at investigating optimal application strategy microbial organic (MOF). The research aims provide scientific foundation for achieving high-quality production. involved control group (utilizing only freshwater, referred as CK) various combinations MOF treatments. In 2021, these treatments included M1 (0.6 t/ha), M2 (1.2 M3 (1.8 M4 (2.4 2022, they encompassed M5 (4.8 t/ha). Over trial period, we assessed indices, including soil’s physical properties, hydraulic characteristics, soil enzyme activities, relative chlorophyll content. Additionally, evaluated yield, quality, economic benefits. results indicate that led significant improvements conditions. Specifically, average moisture content profile storage 0–50 cm layer increased by 10.98% 36.42% 1.8% 26.8%, respectively. Moreover, both 2021 2022 experiments, saturated (SSWC) water-holding capacity (WHC) 6.25% 15.98%, conductivity (Ks) bulk density (BD) decreased 2.91% 9.88% 0.63% 8.08%, resulted enhancements with urease activity increasing approximately 22.5% 100.5%, peroxidase rising around 24.2% 148.5%, invertase augmenting about 5.4% 32.9%. Notably, treatment demonstrated substantial yield increase 19.22%, elevating 7.65 t/ha 9.12 t/ha. Based comprehensive analysis, this recommends an rate 2.4 approach not provides robust support sustainable development industry but also serves valuable reference enhancing local resilience against desertification.
