Analysis of the trade-off between high crop yield and low yield instability at the global scale

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2016
Yield dynamics of major crops species vary remarkably among continents. Worldwide distribution of cropland influences both the expected levels and the interannual variability of global yields.

Silicon Promotes Growth of Brassica napus L. and Delays Leaf Senescence Induced by Nitrogen Starvation

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Silicon (Si) is the second most abundant element in soil and has several beneficial effects, especially in plants subjected to stress conditions. However, the effect of Si in preventing nitrogen (N) starvation in plants is poorly documented.

Distribution and use of grasslands in the Czech Republic and biodiversity of invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In the Czech Republic the major focus of organic farming lies in permanent grasslands management. Animal production is mostly focused on non-milk pasture beef-raising on almost the whole farm area. By contrast conventional farms do not grass sufficiently,

Structural characterization of humic acids, extracted from sewage sludge during composting, by thermochemolysis–gas chromatography–mass spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Thermochemolysis coupled with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry were applied to determine the structure of humic acids (HA) extracted from a sewage sludge and straw mixture at different steps of composting.

Decomposing global crop yield variability

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2014
Recent food crises have highlighted the need to better understand the between-year variability of agricultural production. Although increasing future production seems necessary, the globalization of commodity markets suggests that the food system would ...

The CYP71AZ P450 Subfamily: A Driving Factor for the Diversification of Coumarin Biosynthesis in Apiaceous Plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The production of coumarins and furanocoumarins (FCs) in higher plants is widely considered a model illustration of the adaptation of plants to their environment.

Perennial grasslands and agroenvironmental programme effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Farming on grasslands is an important part of organic faming. There is a perceptible trend of increasing acreages of grasslands in organic farming in the Czech republic too.

Seed Yield Components and Seed Quality of Oilseed Rape Are Impacted by Sulfur Fertilization and Its Interactions With Nitrogen Fertilization

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Although the impact of sulfur (S) availability on the seed yield and nutritional quality of seeds has been demonstrated, its impact coupled with nitrogen (N) availability remains poorly studied in oilseed rape.

Results‐based approach for biodiversity management at the farm scale: proposal for a new method

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
We propose in this article to operationalize the concept of adaptive management by testing a results‐based approach to biodiversity management on a research farm located on the French Atlantic coast. We describe the project design consisting of the identification of several target species with their quantified objectives and the building of dashboards ...
