How do alternative development programs, designed to diminish the presence of illicit crops, might cause unexpected consequences? This article studies how the announcement about an alternative development program, follow...

Seed-yield stability, frequently associated with drought-tolerance strategies, is one of the main breeding objectives for the development of crops for semi-arid mediterranean-type environments. Since breeding of new indu...

ABSTRACT This study was carried out to statistically evaluate the performance of the PHYGROW model in simulating the growth of corn and sorghum plants in different locations in the semi-arid region of Ceará State, Brazi...

Food texture is increasingly recognized as a determinant of nutritional safety, metabolic regulation, and overall health. However, conventional approaches to texture modification rely primarily on hydrocolloids, mechanic...

Waterlogging is a severe stress that constrains crop production. We studied ecophysiological traits related to waterlogging tolerance in wheat, barley oilseed rape and field pea. Outdoor experiments using canopies of whe...

Senescence and degreening are the most important features that determine loss of quality during postharvest of broccoli. During senescence, chlorophylls are degraded with the purpose of avoiding presence of photoactive m...

Objetivou-se avaliar a produção de forragem e a composição morfológica de uma pastagem de coastcross (Cynodon dactylon, cv. Coastcross) consorciada com amendoim forrageiro (Arachis pintoi, cv. Amarillo) com e sem ad...

Puccinia sorghi Schwein., the causal agent of maize common rust, is an endemic disease in the Argentine Corn Belt region. Virulence surveys of the pathogen population within the region have not been performed; thus, the ...

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most widely planted crops globally with Argentina leading world production and exportation. Santiago del Estero province, east of Tucumán and north of Córdoba encompasses eight agro-cl...

The European Union has expanded a number of times throughout its history by way of the accession of new member countries to the Union. Former USSR republic of Georgia and the EU have maintained relations since 1996. The ...

The Ampullariidae (‘apple snails’) are freshwater caenogastropods of probable Gondwanan origin that are now indigenously distributed in tropical and temperate zones of southern North America, South America, Africa, I...

Abstract Climate change threatens species and crops. Understanding its impact along a range of climates is essential for developing effective conservation strategies and strengthening ecological resilience. This study ex...

Climate-smart agricultural (CSA) technologies are vital for enhancing the climate resilience of high-value, climate-sensitive crops like vanilla in Sub-Saharan Africa. While institutional support through agricultural ext...

La localidad de Nonogasta en la provincia de La Rioja (Argentina) se abastece para agua potable y riego agrícola del caudal erogado por los manantiales de “El bosquecillo”, como manifestación natural de la descarga...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the sustainability and agro-economic viability from two croppings of coriander (C) and two of arugula (A) intercropped with beet (B) as a function of roostertree amounts added ...

IntroductionMicronutrient fertilisation is a promising strategy for agronomic biofortification of tomatoes. Yet, its effects on yield formation and fruit quality remain insufficiently clarified, particularly when multipl...

El objetivo de este artículo es analizar la demanda de tracción de la agricultura extensiva pampeana a partir de considerar las aptitudes de las dos especies utilizadas. El estudio abarcó 96 colonias del departamento ...

El agua es uno de los recursos más significativos de consumo en todo el planeta y especialmente en zonas áridas, como las localidades del departamento Tinogasta, donde las áreas de cultivos presentan una actividad alt...

Abstract Many pests and diseases affect agricultural and commercial crops, resulting in potential yield losses. It has been shown that microbial biocontrol agents, such as Bacillus species, are efficient alternatives to ...

Abstract This study investigated the impact of spatial variability in soil Cation Exchange Capacity and key macronutrients on soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merril) population establishment and yield across two distinct field...

Spatio-temporal evaluation of agricultural water use under both observed and future climate conditions is essential for identifying opportunities for water conservation and supporting sustainable farming practices. Howev...

Abstract Rice-based cropping systems remain dominant in Bangladesh’s agricultural landscape, yet their long-term sustainability and profitability are increasingly constrained by high input requirements, ecological pres...
