A Systematic Review of Degrowth Food‐Systems, Framework Conceptualisation and Thematic Tensions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Degrowth food‐systems offer ways to address inequity, poor health, greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss arising from globally dominant industrial food‐systems. In this study, a systematic review of degrowth food‐system research literature was conducted in the Web of Science on 7 February 2025 to identify descriptions of degrowth food‐

Cost Behavior of Organic Versus Conventional Farms: Assessing Economic Resilience and the Ecological Dividend

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study empirically examines the cost behavior in organic versus conventional farming to assess economic resilience. Using Spanish FADN data (2015–2021), results show organic farms exhibit higher cost elasticity during output increases and lower elasticity during decreases.

Addressing Water Scarcity in Agriculture: A Bibliometric Analysis of Hydrogel‐Based Strategies for Drought Resilience and Sustainable Water Management

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought poses a significant threat to agricultural systems worldwide, exacerbating challenges to food security and sustainability. Hydrogels, superabsorbent polymers that can retain substantial amounts of water, have emerged as a promising solution to mitigate the adverse effects of drought. In this integrated bibliometric and narrative review,

Cytogenotoxic Effects of Fluopyram in Allium cepa Root Cells Involving Microtubule Disruption

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluopyram is a next‐generation fungicide widely used in agriculture; however, its persistence in soils and mobility toward aquatic systems have raised concerns regarding potential ecotoxicological risks. This study evaluated the cytogenotoxic effects of a commercial fluopyram‐based pesticide formulation on Allium cepa root meristem cells ...

Antimicrobial Residues in a Key Cerrado River: Distribution, Persistence, and Effects on Zebrafish Embryo‐Larval Development

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The current study aimed to quantify the antimicrobials amoxicillin (AMX), cefazolin (CFZ), chloramphenicol (CHL), metronidazole (MTZ), and sulfamethoxazole (SX) in effluents and surface water of an important Cerrado river, calculate their half‐lives, and analyze their ecotoxicity following single and combined exposures.

Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Competitive carnivore guilds as natural buffers for sustainable tiger conservation

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
This study proposes that competitor‐rich carnivore guilds may act as natural buffers for tiger populations. Leopards, striped hyenas, and dholes may constrain tiger recruitment and peak density while supporting prey stability and reducing conflict. Therefore, tiger conservation should prioritize long‐term ecological resilience rather than maximizing ...
