Winegrowers' Perceptions and Adoption of Sustainable Soil Management Practices and Technologies: A Case Study in Piedmont, Italy

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is crucial for human survival but is threatened by erosion and contamination. Farmers play a pivotal role in soil conservation, thus, understanding what influences their decisions is crucial. The IN‐GEST SOIL project aimed to mitigate soil erosion and improve soil and vine quality in Piedmont vineyards, NW Italy.

A Multiple Soil Threats Assessment for Europe by 2050

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT European soils are exposed to multiple interacting soil threats (STs), challenging the European Commission's objective of restoring healthy soils by 2050. This study provides the first integrated EU‐scale projection of four major soil threats—soil compaction, soil organic carbon loss, soil erosion and soil sealing—under two IPCC climate ...

A Risk Analysis of Converting CRP Acres to a Wheat-Sorghum-Fallow Rotation

This study examines the economic potential of producing a wheat (Triticum aesitivum) and grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) rotation with three different tillage strategies compared to the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) in a semi-arid region.

From Knowledge to Practice: Information Access, Smallholders' Behavior, and the Adoption of Climate‐Resilient Soil Management Practices in Coastal Cameroon

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers in coastal Cameroon face accelerating soil degradation and climate variability. However, the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices (SAPs) remains uneven. This study examines how information behavior and motivational objectives shape SAP adoption in the Tiko municipality using a cross‐sectional survey of 122 ...

An Extended Formulation With Valid Inequalities for the Capacitated Steiner Arborescence Problem

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given a directed graph, the Capacitated Steiner Arborescence Problem (CSAP) aims to determine the least‐cost connection from the root node to terminal nodes requiring a demand through Steiner nodes coming with a capacity, such that there is a unique path from the root to each terminal. This paper presents a new extended formulation of the CSAP,
