JSFA reports, EarlyView.Abstract Background The proliferation of invasive aquatic macrophytes poses a significant ecological challenge globally, while many tropical regions face chronic shortages of affordable livestock feed. This study addresses this dual problem by assessing two invasive species, water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) and water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes ...

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Mycotoxins remain a persistent threat to the safety and quality of cereal grains and other agricultural products, and their impact on human health continues to raise global concerns. In many situations, the practices traditionally used to control these toxins are no longer sufficiently effective. They can be costly, difficult to implement on a

Development and adoption of Kernza—A perennial grain crop for sustainable agriculture
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Annual cereal grains account for ~50% of human food calories, but cultivation of these crops has resulted in major environmental and social issues worldwide. For nearly three decades, researchers have been breeding intermediate wheatgrass—a perennial cool‐season grass—to serve as the world's first commercial‐scale perennial grain crop to improve ...

Presence of Aflatoxin in Complete Feeding Mixtures for Different Categories of Pigs in Serbia [PDF]
, 2015 A total of 106 samples of complete feeding mixtures for different categories of pigs were analyzed for presence of aflatoxin. Feeding mixtures were composed of feed materials harvested during 2012 harvest season in Serbia. These samples included complete
