Toward plant breeding for multicrop systems [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2023 Increasing cropping system diversity has great potential to address environmental problems associated with modern agriculture, such as erosion, soil carbon loss, nutrient runoff, water pollution, and loss of biodiversity. As with other agricultural sciences, plant breeding has primarily been conducted in the context of dominant monoculture cropping ...

Cyber-agricultural systems for crop breeding and sustainable production.
Trends in Plant Science, 2023 The cyber-agricultural system (CAS) represents an overarching framework of agriculture that leverages recent advances in ubiquitous sensing, artificial intelligence, smart actuators, and scalable cyberinfrastructure (CI) in both breeding and production ...

Biopower and an ecology of genes : seeing livestock as meat via genetics [PDF]
, 2015 This book chapter focuses on some of the implications of what has been represented as a radical change in livestock breeding for thinking about meat in relation to living farm animals: the use of genetic techniques in selecting breeding animals.

Le bassin laitier du Livradois-Forez, de l’analyse historique aux modèles de dynamique
M@ppemonde, 2018 This paper models the dynamics of the Livradois-Forez dairy basin. The approach is based on a progressive formalization. We begin by establishing and sequencing the history of the dairy basin, then we aggregated the information into an integrating ...
