The HTE concept is directly targeted to address major current environmental concerns. Healing the Earth systems can be operated in almost every inhabited area of the planet. Water shortages throughout the U.S., especially in the West, are resulting in decreased tillage and reduced beef and dairy herds. Devastating food shortages are reported around the globe. HTE technology will have profound positive impact on how food is produced, the cost of food production, and the environmental impact of traditional growing methods.
