Abstract Objective: This study evaluated the consumption of rice and beans in Brazil, two staples of the Brazilian diet, by describing their consumption according to sociodemographic characteristics and assessing its as...

Abstract In agricultural environments, nitrification inhibitors (NIs), both synthetic and biological, are widely used to reduce nitrogen (N) losses through various mechanisms. Two plant residues were selected to evaluate...

The study examined challenges to smallholder rice farmers’ participation in cluster farming in Ebonyi State, Nigeria. A sample of 220 smallholder rice farmers were selected using a multistage sampling procedure. Data f...

Rice protein isolates (RPI) are promising plant-protein sources but present low solubility and poor surface activity in neutral conditions. Improving these characteristics is a crucial challenge to capitalize on them. Th...

Interest in local food production in Hawai‘i is increasing to address food insecurity. Rice is a promising candidate crop; however, no commercial rice cultivation exists in the state, and quantitative evaluations of yi...

Rice production is a major contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Reducing GHG emissions in this sector is essential for achieving the climate targets. However, little is known about the effectiveness of monetary...

Abstract This study assesses the economic efficiency (EE) of low-emission rice production under Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD) irrigation in the Mekong Delta using survey data from 250 households. Descriptive statist...

Rice starch is modified by planetary ball milling. Its application as a functional ingredient in gluten-free noodles is studied. Ten formulations based on rice flour, ball-milled rice starch (BMRS), whole egg powder (E),...

Traditional rice varieties are known to exhibit anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-cancer, and cardioprotective properties due to their nutritional profile and diverse phytochemical composition. The pre...

Hybrid rice technology offers a promising avenue for increasing productivity in Bangladesh, but the genetic potential of exotic hybrids and their segregating populations remains underexplored. This experiment aimed to ev...

The integration of underutilised orphan crops into food systems can reduce the reliance on major crops for global food security and support adaptation to climate change. Major crops are increasingly susceptible to climat...

Abstract Background Accurate and timely estimation of nitrogen nutrition index (NNI) is critical for assessing crop nitrogen (N) status and implementing precision N management. While machine learning (ML) techniques comb...

Agricultural production is vital for income and food security in rural areas. However, in Manyaran District, Wonogiri Regency's rice farming livelihoods are increasingly threatened by climate change, environmental pressu...

Abstract Populations of Hirschmanniella collected from rice from different states in India were studied using morphological, morphometric, and molecular approaches. All populations were similar and distinctly different f...

This article addresses the problem of proper adjustment of the theoretical probability distribution to the empirical distribution of scanner prices. In the empirical study, we use scanner data from one retail chain in Po...

Applications of metal oxide nanoparticles in the agriculture sector are being extensively included as the materials are considered superior. In the present work, zinc oxide nanoparticle (ZnO NPs), with a developing ferti...

Abstract The primary factors contributing to poor seed quality and lower rice yields are largely attributed to inadequate seed quality management strategies. The quality of rice seeds and productivity in the Fogera Plain...

This article investigates the cultural significance of Siamese herbal rice (khaoyam) in Kelantan, Malaysia, with a focus on its role in shaping the relationship between people, plants, and place. Using an ethnographic ap...

Soil fertility is a critical factor influencing rice productivity, and understanding nutrient interactions is essential for effective management in agriculture. This study aimed to evaluate the fertility status and nutri...

Abstract The effects of pork back fat (PBF) substitution with various concentrations of rice bran oil (RBO) (50%, 45%, 40% and 35%) on the physicochemical characteristics and sensory attributes of emulsion-type pork saus...

Antimony (Sb), a toxic and potentially carcinogenic element, can readily accumulate in rice, posing challenges to both food safety and agricultural production. Building upon the previous study on the highly antimony-tole...

Abstract Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a major pest that causes great damage and loss economically in the cultivation of rice. To evaluate rice's potential for resistance to S. litura, fourth-...

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a staple crop feeding over half of the global population, especially in Asia where it contributes 90% of global production. Weed infestation remains a critical constraint in rice ecosystems, sig...

Abstract A new species of Trichostrongyloidea (Nematoda: Heligmonellidae), Hassalstrongylus lauroi n. sp., is described from specimens collected from the small intestine of the rodent Hylaeamys seuanezi in the Atlantic F...
