Impact of cultural practices on two‐spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch) infestation in tomato cultivation in the Central Rift Valley of Ethiopia

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract The two‐spotted spider mite (TSSM; Tetranychus urticae Koch) is a major pest of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), causing substantial yield and quality losses in Ethiopia and worldwide. The present study evaluated the impact of tomato branch pruning and trellising on TSSM populations and yield in the Central Rift Valley tomato production area ...

Simulating Agroecology Policy Options for the Resilience of Smallholder Food Security to Climate Shocks

open access: yesClimate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2026.
Climate shocks and the agroecology–resilience nexus of smallholders. Summary of key findings: Agroecology increases smallholder resilience capacity by 8.7% in the short term under a decreased rainfall scenario, a projected 11% decline in precipitation reduces resilience by 5.6% and 14.2% in the short and long terms, respectively, and a policy‐induced ...

The Making of the Right to Food: Tracing Food Policy Conflict and Negotiated Outcomes in Colombia

open access: yesWorld Food Policy, Volume 12, Issue 2, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The 2016 Peace Agreement between the Colombian Government and the FARC guerrilla group marked a historic step toward ending more than five decades of armed conflict. It also reshaped national food policy with lasting implications. During the negotiations, deep ideological divisions emerged between food sovereignty and food security, and these ...

Growth and yield response of cassava varieties (Manihot esculenta Crantz) to nitrogen fertilization across contrasting agroecology in Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) plays a crucial role in mitigating food problems; however, its productivity is affected by low soil fertility, especially nitrogen deficiency, which is a major constraint to crop growth and yield. The study aimed to evaluate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer and cassava varieties on the agro‐morphological ...

Stability analysis and yield potential of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) genotypes in Western Ethiopia

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is a significant oil crop that can be cultivated in various regions worldwide. Multi‐environmental yield trials can be used to identify superior genotypes across different locations. Thus, the objectives of the study are to identify superior sunflower genotypes that are stable, highly productive, and disease ...

Multi‐environment trials and participatory validation identify soybean genotypes with mechanized harvest‐enabling traits in Ghana

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) harvesting in Ghana is predominantly manual, and labor shortages frequently delay harvest beyond physiological maturity, exacerbating shattering losses. Mechanization could mitigate these losses, but effective combine harvesting requires cultivars with elevated first pod height (FPH) to minimize header losses ...

Integrating Circular Economy and Regenerative Agricultural Practices on Farms in a Developing Country Context

open access: yesBusiness Strategy &Development, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The current state of agricultural production is characterised by a linear model of production and consumption, which has led to negative environmental consequences. In Argentina, the agricultural sector plays a crucial role in the economy, particularly in the Pampas region.

Peatlands at Southernmost Permafrost Edge: Rapid Carbon Accumulation but High Vulnerability to Drying

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Little Ice Age cooling promoted peat initiation and permafrost development at the southern permafrost margin. Rapid carbon accumulation was sustained by permafrost‐suppressed decay and high photosynthetically active radiation, but recent warming‐driven drying is reducing carbon accumulation and increasing carbon‐loss risk.
