Agricultural expansion threatens biodiversity due to habitat loss and fragmentation. In the Gran Chaco, a global deforestation hotspot, rampant cropland and pasture expansion raise concerns about the sustainability of th...

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...

Agriculture in Iran operates under acute water scarcity, climate stress, and reliance on input-intensive practices that amplify environmental pressures. This study presents the first long-term, spatially explicit life cy...

Florida citrus growers need inexpensive methods to observe citrus plants to detect disease and stress consistently. Health vegetation indices, such as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) collected from Unma...

Food systems globally are under growing pressure to transition in response to climate change, ecological degradation, shifting consumer expectations, and persistent social inequities. Emerging biotechnologies, including ...

Abstract Background: Food security and nutrition are threatened globally due to climate change. The West African Sahel is particularly vulnerable to climate change given food systems that are highly dependent on rainfall...

Background: Climate change has a negative impact on smallholder farming, affecting both agricultural production and livelihoods. Agricultural extension services offer an essential role in enabling smallholder farmers to...

Abstract Northern Ghana faces acute climate vulnerabilities, yet adaptation pathways remain fragmented and poorly synthesized. This study systematically reviewed 15 peer-reviewed literature covering the Savannah, Upper E...

This paper presents a systematic literature review that synthesizes existing empirical research on consumer behavior toward sustainable and agroecological food products. Following the PRISMA guidelines, the review examin...

Satellite-based crop forecasting in major exporting regions can trigger production shifts in the opposite hemisphere by leveraging seasonal disparities between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres to stabilize global cr...

Present land-use forms, such as former coal mines turned into lakes, solar parks, wind farms, mixed/test forests and biological (organic) agriculture, cater more for ‘human wellbeing’ or building sustainable economie...

Este trabajo reflexiona sobre las formas de producción de conocimiento situado y dialó-gico, desde la integralidad de funciones universitarias, en procesos colaborativos que en-traman relaciones ...

The use of agrochemical products helps promote economic growth by sustaining agriculture. These agrochemicals are essential for controlling pests and improving soil fertility. However, cocoa farmers face distinct challen...

This research examines the determinants of agricultural land prices in the Mendoza River Basin, with emphasis on the marginal contribution of irrigation water as a strategic resource in an arid context. An original geore...

This research focuses on developing a neural network model in the Python programming language to solve the technological problem of forecasting potato yields with limited agroclimatic data. The developed program is consi...

Stylosanthes hippocampoides, a native legume forage species, was first studied by our research team in 2016 to assess genetic variability in natural populations in northeastern Argentina. Recurrent fires in the following...

The effect of urban trees as a noise mitigating element was determined on Alameda Avenue in the city of Talca, Chile, a Mediterranean continental area. Maximum and minimum noise, especially generated from vehicles, was r...

Proposed a design for a sod seeder furrow opener equipped with cutters and a damper-safety device (RF Patent No. 2814067) which effectively smooths out shock loads on the drive when the cutter blades enter the soil and s...

The main objective of this paper centers on reviewing the evolution of Decision Support System´s (DSS) architectures, particularly as they apply to natural resources. Today it is difficult to conceive the existence of a...
