Impacts of soil and water conservation practices on finger millet production in northwestern Ethiopia

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Crop yield decline, primarily caused by soil erosion, is a major challenge in rain‐fed agriculture. Massive soil and water conservation (SWC) practices are conducted each year in the country of Ethiopia, including the study sites, to tackle the problems, but there is not enough information about the impacts those practices on crop yields in ...

Grass Communities Differ Floristically Under Different Dominant Trees in Savannas in Thailand and Cambodia

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
In total, we recorded 160 unique grass species across four savanna ecosystems dominated by different tree genera. These savannas support distinct grassy assemblages, but common grasses are often shared between ecosystems. ABSTRACT Southeast Asian savannas are some of the least studied ecosystems, with understanding of their function and resilience ...
