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

Perennial grasslands and agroenvironmental programme effects [PDF]
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.

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

La relance des activités de biométrie au sein de la recherche agronomique zaïroise [PDF]
The Revival of Biometrie Activities in the Zairean Agricultural Research. This paper gives an overview of biometrie activities in the Zairean agricultural research. Biometrie methods were introduced by INEAC in 1953.
