Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 5, Page 2969-2980, September/October 2022., 2022 Abstract Maize (Zea mays L.) is a major cereal crop worldwide and demands N fertilizers, which can be replaced partially by plant growth‐promoting bacteria. In Brazil, inoculants carrying Azospirillum brasilense strains Ab‐V5 and Ab‐V6 have exponentially grown, but a quantitative study on the replacement of N fertilizer by inoculants is still missing ...

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 162-180, March/April 2022., 2022 Abstract Soilborne pests are a major obstacle that must be overcome for the production of horticultural crops. Methyl bromide (MBr) was an effective preplanting soil broad‐spectrum biocide, but its use has been banned due to its role in depleting the ozone layer. As a result, sustainable alternative methods for controlling soilborne pathogens and pests

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 100, Issue 12, Page 4618-4626, September 2020., 2020 Abstract BACKGROUND Insect biomass is a sustainable alternative to traditional animal feeds, particularly when insects are produced on low‐value high‐volume agricultural by‐products. Seven samples of almond by‐product (hulls and shells) were obtained from processors in California and investigated for larvae production.
