Region‐Specific Profiling of the Gut Microbiome and Metabolite Landscape in Response to Dietary Intervention Using Electronics‐Free Ingestible Smart Sampling Capsules

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Region‐specific profiling of the gut microbiome is achieved non‐invasively using electronics‐free ingestible sampling capsules that activate at defined intestinal sites through stimuli‐responsive coatings. Deployed in a porcine dietary intervention model, the capsules resolve spatially distinct, fiber‐driven shifts in microbial composition and short ...

No detectable elevated soil carbon under organic farming in German croplands − results from two soil surveys

open access: yesGeoderma
Organic farming contributes to multiple environmental targets in agriculture. Long-term field experiments found that organic farming cropland not only emit lower greenhouse gas emissions but can also increase soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks relative to ...

ECONOMIC MODELING OF CLIMATE-SMART AGRICULTURE IN IRAN [PDF]

open access: yesNew Medit, 2019
Global warming is the immediate consequence of increased greenhouse gasses emission. Agriculture is a significant source in terms of greenhouse gasses emission and on the other hand, the main sector in terms of producing food. As global food demand grows, the share of agriculture in the total greenhouse gasses emission will rise too.
