Root trait dynamics of historical canola varieties under low and high nitrogen supply
Abstract Nitrogen fertilizer is a major input cost in crop production, making it crucial to enhance nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) to reduce fertilizer dependence without compromising yields. Root system architecture (RSA) is a key determinant of nutrient acquisition, particularly under nutrient‐limited conditions.

Abstract Agricultural systems are vulnerable to extreme weather, market volatility, and changing socio‐cultural contexts. Despite efforts to create transformational solutions in agriculture to ensure economic, social, and environmental sustainability, there is often a disconnect between research findings and real‐world experience.

Machine learning‐based prediction of cereal rye cover crop biomass across diverse agroecosystems
Abstract Accurate operational predictions of cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) biomass are critical for quantifying the agroecosystem services provided by cover crops and for guiding growers’ management decisions for subsequent cash crops. In this study, we developed machine learning‐based biomass prediction models using two advanced gradient‐boosted tree

Which indicators are most effective at detecting rapid shifts in soil health?
Abstract Farmers are showing a growing interest in soil health. Therefore, it is necessary to understand how and when indicators respond to changes in land management. Measurements of soil carbon (C) and nitrogen can take up to a decade to shift. However, it is unknown how other biotic markers of soil health (i.e., nematode communities) react.

Nitrogen dynamics and physiological N use efficiency in high‐biomass sorghum
Abstract Improving nitrogen (N) efficiency is essential for sustainable high‐biomass sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) production. This study evaluated leaf and stem N dynamics, canopy N remobilization, and physiological nitrogen use efficiency (pNUE) in two photoperiod‐sensitive sorghum hybrids under two N rates (0 and 168 kg‐N ha−1) across multiple
