Abstract Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is one of the important interventions to mitigate the negative consequences of climate change and is arguably the most practical and sustainable one. It offers three benefits: red...

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...

Indoor hydroponics offers a promising pathway toward sustainable urban agriculture, but its effectiveness depends on precise environmental control. This study presents a compact, energy-efficient hydroponic system that u...

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...

Smart farming has introduced agricultural systems that are increasingly autonomous and highly interconnected. The Agricultural Digital Twin (ADT) is an innovative breakthrough in smart farming that has the potential to g...

Microbial siderophores are low-molecular-weight compounds with a strong affinity for ferric (FSe3+) ions. They play a pivotal role in plant-microbial interactions by enhancing iron bioavailability to plants, primarily th...

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...

Increasing leaf dry matter and phenolic content in tomato has the potential to enhance plant resilience, a key requirement for food security and sustainable agriculture in the context of climate change. However, phenolic...

The agricultural sector contributes significantly to the economic development of nations worldwide. Owing to the population explosion, agriculture must address the complex challenges to meet the growing food demand while...

Abstract Conventional farming practices are energy-intensive and contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions making low-carbon agricultural production essential for India’s net-zero transition. This study asse...

Abstract This is the protocol for a Campbell systematic review. The objectives are as follows: the primary objective of this review is to synthesise evidence of the effectiveness of interventions to promote climate‐sma...

This study presents a decision-making framework using the fuzzy AHP-TOPSIS model to evaluate innovative agroecological and sustainable intensification approaches for strategic Food Security and Nutrition (FSN) management...

Thermoelectric generators offer a promising solution for sustainable, low-maintenance energy harvesting in smart agriculture, especially for powering off-grid sensor nodes and microgrid systems. However, their inherently...

Abstract Seed selection constitutes the initial and one of the most critical steps in agricultural productivity. The identification of high-quality seeds is a labor-intensive and costly process that requires considerable...

To address the low detection accuracy caused by leaf occlusion, the loss of disease targets, and complex backgrounds in citrus leaf disease detection, this study proposes a leaf disease detection method termed DBG-DETR (...

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...

Abstract Climate change is driving increased incidence and severity of Phytophthora diseases in Tanzanian vegetable production systems, threatening food security and smallholder livelihoods. Field assessments were conduc...

Abstract Agricultural soils serve as an important frontier in the global efforts to sequester carbon (C), providing scalable opportunities to address climate change through improved land management. However, the C seques...

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...

Abstract Climate change poses significant strain on global water supplies, necessitating robust adaptive measures in irrigated agriculture to ensure food security. Adhering to PRISMA guidelines, this study provides a sys...

Biotic and abiotic stresses reduce crop yields, yet existing image‑based diagnostic models are often crop‑specific, computationally intensive, and poorly interpretable. This study present: (i) a multi-crop diagnostic...

Over the past decade, mobile devices have become an integral part of our daily routines, offering a broad spectrum of applications that enhance everyday tasks. As more people adopt smartphones, developers are increasingl...

Amid growing water crises, climate change, and intensified human activities, there is an urgent need to assess water conditions from an ecological perspective. This study evaluated Water Security with an Ecological Lens ...

Artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and advanced computing techniques are now central to the digital transformation journey, reshaping industries, academia, and society. This special issue of the Journal...
