National Horizon Scanning for Future Crops Under a Changing UK Climate

open access: yesClimate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2025.
One potential option for agricultural adaptation to climate change is to identify alternative crops better suited to changing local climates. We present a national‐scale horizon‐scan of climatic suitability across over 160 crops for the UK. Climate change may bring opportunities for UK cropping systems.

Spectral Variability Analysis of Lupinus mutabilis Sweet Under Nanofertilizer and Chelate Application Through Spectroscopy and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Multispectral Images

open access: yesAgronomy
Lupin is an Andean legume that has gained importance in Ecuador due to the protein content in its grain. Nonetheless, in recent times the production of lupin has been affected by inadequate nutritional management.

Climate‐Mediated Hybridisation and the Future of Andean Forests

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The tropical Andes face unprecedented warming and shifting precipitation patterns due to climate change and land‐use alteration, challenging the future of Andean forests. During the Quaternary, many Andean trees responded to climate change through upslope migrations but, while there is evidence of such ongoing migrations in many species, they ...

Mapping and Geospatial Analysis of Ancient Terrace Agricultural Systems in Lucanas Province, Peruvian Andes, Based on Satellite Imagery, High‐Resolution DSMs, and Field Surveys

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 40, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a unique set of maps and geospatial data covering 16 ancient terrace agricultural systems in the upper part of the Río Grande de Nasca drainage. These systems are located on the western Andean flank (1200 and 3800 m asl), in the districts of Llauta, Laramate, and Ocaña in Lucanas province, Ayacucho region, southern Peru (14.

Fewer Flowers, same attraction? Response of flower visitors to three legume-based intercropping systems for biomass production

open access: yesLandbauforschung
Intercropping cereals or maize with legumes is considered a strategy of diversifying bioenergy cropping systems and can provide additional food resources for pollinators and other flower-visiting insects.

Multivariate Integration of Functional and Compositional Transitions in Gluten-Free Composite Flours Based on Amaranthus caudatus and Lupinus mutabilis

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The transition from starch-dominated to protein-enriched gluten-free systems represents a critical step in improving the functional and nutritional quality of composite flours. This study investigated the effects of progressive substitution of Amaranthus

Carbon and nitrogen isotopic survey of northern peruvian plants: baselines for paleodietary and paleoecological studies.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The development of isotopic baselines for comparison with paleodietary data is crucial, but often overlooked. We review the factors affecting the carbon (δ(13)C) and nitrogen (δ(15)N) isotopic compositions of plants, with a special focus on the carbon ...

Plant‐based protein crops and their improvement: Current status and future perspectives

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 65, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract The plant‐based protein industry is rapidly growing and is projected to grow to over $27 billion by 2030. In addition to monetary benefits, plant‐based protein crops, particularly pulse crops (i.e., legume species with dry edible seed), can supplement the existing crop biodiversity and break the disease and insect pest cycle in drastically ...

A Blueprint for Building Resilience and Food Security in MENA and SSA Drylands: Diversifying Agriculture With Neglected and Underutilized Species

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
ABSTRACT Drylands, encompassing 41% of global land and supporting over 2 billion people, face significant challenges, including water scarcity, extreme temperatures, and soil degradation. Dryland spans vast areas of Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and Sub‐Sahara Africa (SSA) regions and poses a threat to food security and resilience.
