Nanotechnology holds significant interest across various domains, including agriculture. The green synthesis of nanoparticles offers environmentally friendly solutions. This study aimed to synthesize copper nanoparticles...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are a key soil functional group, with an important potential to increase crop productivity and sustainable agriculture including food security. However, there is clear evidence that lan...

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...

Water-scarce smallholder regions require irrigation strategies that are both biophysically credible and socially legitimate. We propose an integrated hydro-economic decision-support framework for the Cesar Department (Co...

Here, we show a unique crop response to intraspecific interference, whereby neighboring sunflower plants in a row avoid each other by growing toward a more favorable light environment and collectively increase production...

Nas áreas de produção de sementes de Tectona grandis em Cáceres, MT, ventos fortes podem causar queda precoce de frutos. Diásporos de três lotes de teca, um obtido após a queda natural e os outros dois após queda...

Despite the effect of water content on radar backscattering is well known, isolating the contributions from soil, vegetation, and vegetation superficial water content (wetness) is still challenging. This work aim to char...

ABSTRACT Shade-tolerant forest species are among the most susceptible to habitat loss in agricultural mosaics, where a variety of croplands is connected to forests at different levels of anthropogenic disturbance. We aim...

Today’s farming is up against the tough task of boosting crop yields while also taking care of the environment. The way pesticides and herbicides are usually applied can be a real hassle. It's often not very efficient,...

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...

Ecosystem-based adaptation practices among smallholder farmers in drought-prone areas provides a positive response strategy to the increasing challenges posed by climate change, particularly declining crop yield under dr...

The foremost task in agriculture is the decisive identification of citrus plants and the timely identification of diseases in the plants with the aim of improving the quality of crops and the yield. In this work, a machi...

The present work aims to estimate the yield of wheat crop for a particular wheat farm in Najaf Governorate, southwestern Iraq. To achieve this objective, seven multispectral bands of the Landsat satellite with a spatial...

ABSTRACT We studied the home range and habitat use of paca (Cuniculus paca) in a rural agricultural community in the Alto Beni region, in La Paz department, Bolivia, where game meat is the main source of protein for a la...

The aim of this study is to determine the impact potential of land use on biotic production and climate regulation in the agricultural phase of a product, taking into account the varied soil and crop management. Land occ...

Agricultural production necessitates sustainable practices to ensure long-term and sustained food security. Water is a key ingredient for food production. Ensuring sustainable water management in agriculture is thus esse...

Abstract Background Most households in developing countries like India are not able to afford to get the services of efficient energy for cooking and lighting. Therefore, they rely mostly on solid fuels (firewood, dung c...

Agricultural production under conditions of a geochemical anomaly of iodine deficiency poses a threat to human health in Northwest Russia and the productivity of regional livestock farming. A comprehensive evaluation of ...

Disease Diagnosis in crops is a very expensive and lengthy process, as it often involves the need for few experts to make observations, leading to delayed diagnosis, viral spread of diseases, and thus, massive economic l...

Artículo publicado Remote sensing tools allow the environmentalevaluation of coastal wetlands at a landscape scale; but adeeper understanding is needed of the interactions betweenbiophysical parameters and the electroma...

The purpose of the study is to identify a complex of segetal plant species in the fields of agricultural crops. The surveyed area is located in the basin of the Osetr river and its tributaries the Osetrik and the Unitza ...

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...

SUMMARY The slash and burn method was studied with respect to changes on the chemical composition in the top-soil layer (upper 20 cm) of yellow latosols (about 85% of the total area) and hydromorphic soils (about 1% of t...
