A systematic review on research trends and commercialised entomopathogenic nematodes: A global perspective

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Out of 136 identified EPNs, only 18 (8 Steinernema and 6 Heterorhabditis) are commercialised globally, highlighting a major gap between discovery and application. High production costs and inconsistent field efficacy are the leading obstacles to the widespread commercialisation of EPN‐based biocontrol products.

The role of agricultural cooperatives in improving mechanization levels: Differences between outsourcing machinery services and household‐owned machines

open access: yesAnnals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Although mechanization is reshaping rural and agricultural development by reducing drudgery through substituting farm labourers, improving input use efficiency and increasing farm productivity, the level of mechanization in developing countries still needs improvements.

Threats to and management of Natura 2000 protected areas relative to agricultural practices

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Natura 2000 (N2K) network combines biodiversity protection and socioeconomic targets. Human activities, such as agricultural practices, can affect biodiversity in N2K sites in diverse ways. Limiting activities with negative impacts while enforcing land management that supports biodiversity is crucial for effective conservation.

Where water meets rock: Ecological niches and diversity hotspots of hygropetric beetles in the Neotropics

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.
