Resilience through diversity: The potential of modelling species and variety interactions to enhance resilience of production systems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Agricultural production systems in the global North combine monocultures of specialised varieties and breeds with external interventions and inputs. Increasing the diversity of varieties, breeds and species may increase the system's resilience to external pressures through beneficial interactions.

New Roots for Restoration: Building a foundation for interdisciplinary work in plant organismal biology and ecology to advance restoration in natural and agricultural ecosystems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soils are globally degraded due in part to conventional agriculture and wildland conversion. To address the global challenge of soil degradation, we formed an interdisciplinary, cross‐institutional collaborative research team, New Roots for Restoration, to understand how perennial plant root and shoot traits relate to one another, and how they ...

Soil Chemical Status Under Natural Forest, Coffee Agroforestry and Coffee Monoculture at Air Hitam Subdistrict, West Lampung, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
The chemical status of soil is a crucial aspect of soil health and plays a vital role in determining plant growth and productivity. However, the change in land use from forest to coffee plantation can influence the soil’s chemical condition. One strategy

Agroforestry and enhanced rock weathering: A dual strategy for sustainable cacao

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cacao production is both economically vital and environmentally intensive, presenting a major sustainability challenge as a crop largely cultivated by smallholder farmers in climate‐vulnerable regions. This review synthesises evidence that integrating agroforestry with enhanced rock weathering (EW) may significantly reduce emissions from cacao ...

Prospective of indigenous African wild food plants in alleviation of the severe iron deficiency anaemia in Sub‐Saharan Africa

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Iron deficiency anaemia remains a major public health challenge in Sub‐Saharan Africa, where population growth, displacement and limited resources heighten nutritional insecurity. We compiled a list of indigenous African underutilized wild food plants and examined their potential for addressing micronutrient deficiencies.

Morpho-physiological and agronomic responses of wheat varieties under artificial shade in agroforestry systems. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Sci Food Agric
Abstract BACKGROUND Solar radiation is a primary constraint in silvoarable agroforestry, with yield losses near the trees well documented in temperate climates. However, genetic variability for shade tolerance remains largely unexplored. This 2‐year field trial investigated the impact of artificial shading – using nets that reduced photosynthetically ...
