Early Experimentation (1700s-1800s): The spark of electroculture can be traced back to the late 18th century, fueled by the dawning age of electricity.

Pioneering minds in Europe, like Abbé Bertholon in France (1783) and Robert Forster in Scotland (1844), conducted experiments using electrified water and atmospheric electricity to enhance crop yields.

Modern Day:

• One of the notable figures in the modern history of electroculture is Albert Roy, a French agricultural engineer who extensively researched and promoted the use of electricity in agriculture during the mid-20th century.
• Roy’s experiments focused on the application of weak electrical currents to seeds, soil, and plants, claiming significant improvements in plant growth, nutrient absorption, and pest resistance.
