Observations in Vegetable Fields With and Without Line-of-Sight Exposure to 5G within First Year of Introduction

Abstract

This report presents a passive comparison of biodiversity and agricultural conditions between an area with direct exposure to beam-formed transmissions from fifth-generation mobile communications system (5G) antennas and an area without direct exposure, both temporally (2023 without transmissions versus 2024 with transmissions) and spatially (exposed expanse of fields versus fields sheltered by houses and satoyama groves in 2024). Though other factors existed that could impact biodiversity, clear differences could be identified in many species and crops in the comparisons made. These were particularly notable in voles, moderately large frogs, dragonflies and butterflies, with body sizes similar to one of the newly introduced 5G transmission wavelengths of 6.6 cm. Very small flying insects such as mosquitoes, flies and aphids also appeared to be impacted by the newly introduced 5G transmissions as did crop yield (pollination and other causes) and plant viability. Particularly affected crops included nightshades and cucurbits, especially in elevated locations, such as on trellises. There was a tendency to grow strongly, start bearing fruit and then wither before the fruit could mature. Some other crops such as legumes and sweet potatoes benefitted, seemingly from decreased numbers of rodent and insect pests. Since coherence of radiofrequency transmissions has been noted before as an important factor in the severity of effects from radiofrequency radiation, the satoyama environment, with its patchwork of groves, noted before for promoting biodiversity, may provide some protection by blocking direct exposure to beam-formed microwave transmissions in certain areas. The possibility should be investigated that this is a result of decreased coherence of the radiation that penetrates. Shielding of plants by dense foliage of other plants in the irradiated area appeared to improve crop yield and plant viability. The author recommends taking these observations into account when siting radiating infrastructure to preserve biodiversity and viability of small-scale mixed-crop gardening, which contributes important nutrition to the human diet.

A new update: I found temperature data on the city of Mito about 20 km away for 2023 and 2024 here www.accuweather.com , with daily high and low temperatures. I added up all daily highs and daily lows for the same 15-week period during which we experienced very hot weather, the prime growing season, between June 11 and September 23
The averages turned out to be: 30.657 for the high and 22.657 for the low in 2024
Versus 30.819 for the high and 22.514 for the low in 2023. Thus just barely hotter highs in and barely cooler lows in 2023.I.e., no difference to speak of. Highs of 35 degrees were reached four times n July and nine times in August 2023. Highs of 35 or 36 were reached eight times in July and three times in August 2024, so it was slightly hotter somewhat earlier in 2024. None of the temperatures in themselves were record-breaking, just prolonged, but to the same degree each year.
Thus it seems unlikely that the heat caused all of the differences I saw between 2023 and 2024 at this location. Aftereffects of 2023's heat are a possibility, but that seemed to be favoring most of the creatures I observed in 2023.
