Embedded Pesticide Use: Exploring the Pesticide‐Land Nexus

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the turn of the century, global land grabs, farmland financialization and land‐based food sovereignty movements have returned the land question to the heart of agrarian studies. Meanwhile, abiding interest in pesticides has been reanimated in the face of changes in production, regulation and knowledge of toxicity.

Glyphosate residues in soil alter herbivore‐induced plant volatiles and affect predatory insect behaviour

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Herbicide residues in soil disrupt plant–insect signalling, reducing the effectiveness of biological pest control. Abstract Plants under herbivore attack emit distinct blends of herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) which serve as signalling cues for predatory insects.

Shocks and Vulnerability in Rural Tanzania

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relative importance of idiosyncratic and covariate shocks in shaping household vulnerability to poverty in rural Tanzania. Using five rounds of the Tanzanian National Panel Survey and a three‐level multilevel modeling framework, we account for the hierarchical structure of the data and decompose consumption variance ...

3N Agriculture: Growing the greenest tomorrow

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract The global food system must confront the intertwined challenges of feeding a growing population, reversing environmental degradation, and improving nutrition. While past agricultural innovations improved yields, they often undermined sustainability and food quality. In response, we propose the 3N Agriculture framework—Net‐Zero, Nature‐Positive,

Growth and yield response of cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) clones to spacing in the Guinea Savanna zone of Ghana

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The Guinea Savanna zone of many countries constitutes a critical cashew‐producing area. Despite its importance, data‐driven recommendations on optimal tree spacing remain largely unavailable to farmers in Ghana. This knowledge gap constrains productivity, reduces returns on investment, and affects farmer interest and ultimately the long‐term ...

Farming practices and their effect on soil moisture and penetration resistance: Impact on maize yields in rainfed agriculture

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract In sub‐Saharan Africa, there is growing interest in conservation agriculture practices, including reduced tillage (e.g., ripping), residue retention, and crop diversification, but their effects on soil moisture and penetration resistance in sub‐humid regions remain unclear.

Effect of integrated inorganic and organic fertilizer on yield and yield components of maize at Bako Agricultural Research Center in Western Ethiopia

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the combined application of vermicompost and NPS fertilizer on maize (Zea mays L.) yield and yield components under low soil fertility conditions in western Ethiopia. A field experiment was conducted at Bako Agricultural Research Center using a randomized complete block design with three replications.
