Ensuring sustainable water security through sustainable land management: Research evidences for policy

World Water Policy, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 1170-1186, November 2024.
Abstract Sustainable land management (SLM) practices is a key to reducing rates of land degradation and has proven to ensure water security by increasing soil moisture availability, decreasing surface runoff, decreasing soil erosion, increasing infiltration, and decreasing flood discharge. Land degradation is adversely affecting over 75% of the Earth's

Natural forest colonisation as a management strategy to restore soil functioning of abandoned agricultural lands

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 11, Page 2690-2700, November 2024.
Though its effectiveness is variable, passive restoration can be more effective than active restoration. Our research indicates that passive tree colonisation of past agricultural land is enough to achieve soil functionality similar to a mature forest for most variables studied. However, some variables would need more time to reach mature forest levels,

Effects of seed infection by Fusarium verticillioides on maize performance against Sesamia nonagrioides attack

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 176, Issue 6, November/December 2024.
Abstract In maize (Zea mays L), the fungus Fusarium verticillioides can behave as a pathogen, but it is also able of asymptomatic colonization as an endophyte. Therefore, it would be of great value to identify metabolites and/or metabolic pathways implicated in mutualistic and pathogenic interactions.

Impacto de sistemas de manejo de pastizales sobre la calidad del suelo en agroecosistemas degradados.

Agrisost, 2012
La agricultura es, tal vez, en la actualidad, la actividad antropogénica que más perjudica de forma directa e indirecta, tanto en extensión como en temporalidad, al suelo, y, sin embargo, es la actividad con menores restricciones normativas.

Avian phylogenetic and functional diversity are better conserved by land‐sparing than land‐sharing farming in lowland tropical forests

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 10, Page 2497-2509, October 2024.
To minimise the loss of avian phylogenetic diversity and functional traits from farming in the Amazon, it is imperative to protect large blocks of undisturbed and regenerating forests. The intensification required within existing farmlands to make space for spared lands while meeting agricultural demand needs to be sustainable, avoiding long‐term ...
