Abstract: Present invention teaches the method of using a keratin hydrolysis peptide (“KHP”) solution to improve the growth of corn under low temperature conditions. By selectively choosing specific weights of feathers and water, and treating the mixture to a high-temperature high-pressure hydrolysis process, the resulting solution is confirmed to contain at least 253 peptides and then infused to the soil containing the corn seeds, the solution can also be sprayed to the leaf surface of corn plants at a specific growth stage. Optionally, the KHP solution can be diluted by water, as disclosed in the specification, for applying to the soil and for spraying to leaf surface of corn seedlings/plants.

Abstract: Present invention teaches the method of using a keratin hydrolysis peptide (“KHP”) solution to reduce the suppression of corn growth due to waterlogging stress. By selectively choosing specific weights of feathers and water, and treating the mixture to a high-temperature high-pressure hydrolysis process, the resulting solution is confirmed to contain at least 253 peptides and then infused to the soil containing the corn seeds or seedlings; the solution can also be sprayed to the leaf surface of corn seedlings at a growth period of the corn seedlings. Optionally, the KHP solution can be diluted by water, as disclosed in the specification, for applying to the soil or for spraying to leaf surface of corn seedlings.

Abstract: Present invention teaches the method of using a keratin hydrolysis peptide (“KHP”) solution to promote the growth of corn plants under low light conditions. By selectively choosing specific weights of feathers and water, and treating the mixture to a high-temperature high-pressure hydrolysis process, the resulting solution is confirmed to contain at least 253 peptides and then apply to the corn either by infusing to the soil at seeding stage or by leaf spray to the corn at vegetative stage. Optionally, the KHP solution can be diluted by water, as disclosed in the specification, for infusing or leaf spraying.

Abstract: Present invention teaches the method of using a keratin hydrolysis peptide (“KHP”) solution to improve the corn plant's drought tolerance and ultimate production yield in hot weather. By selectively choosing specific weights of feathers and water, and treating the mixture to a high-temperature high-pressure hydrolysis process, the resulting solution is confirmed to contain at least 253 peptides and then infused to the soil in which the corn seeds and/or seedlings are planted. Optionally, the KHP solution can be diluted by water, as disclosed in the specification, for applying to the soil.

Abstract: Present invention teaches the method of using a keratin hydrolysis peptide (“KHP”) solution to promote the growth and development of corn crops, by selectively choosing specific weights of feathers and water, and treating the mixture to a high-temperature high-pressure hydrolysis process, the resulting solution is confirmed to contain at least 253 peptides and, at seedling stage and/or early growth stage, applied to the soil around or sprayed to the young plants. Optionally, the KHP solution can be diluted by water, as disclosed in the specification, before administering as taught herein.

Abstract: Present invention teaches the method of using a keratin hydrolysis peptide (“KHP”) solution to improve the efficacy of fertilizer usage and absorption by corn crops. By selectively choosing specific weights of feathers and water, and treating the mixture to a high-temperature high-pressure hydrolysis process, the resulting solution is confirmed to contain at least 253 peptides and then infused to the soil in which the corn crops show better growth and development despite fertilizers use may be reduced. Optionally, the KHP solution can be diluted by water, as disclosed in the specification, for applying to the soil around the corn crops.

Abstract: The disclosure describes a concentrate and a ready to use herbicide safener including 1-10 mg/L of glutamic acid, 10-100 mg/L of proline, and 50-200 mg/L of ?-Aminobutyric acid (GABA). The disclosure also concerns a method for protecting plants from herbicides. The method includes a step of applying a ready to use herbicide safener disclosed in the disclosure to a plant.

Abstract: An exposure control method and an image processing system are provided. The image processing system comprises: an image sensor module, configured to provide at least two types of source images in parallel, each type of the source images has different exposure setting; a pre-processing unit, configured to determine luminance distribution of the source images on block basis, perform a first exposure control according to the luminance distribution of the two types of source images, and generate output images according to the source images in RAW image domain, and a post-processing unit, configured to determine luminance distribution of the output images, and perform a second exposure control according to the luminance distribution of the output images in normal image domain; wherein exposure settings of the image sensor module is adjusted according to the first exposure control and the second exposure control.
