The Influence of Cowpea Cultivar on the Host Preferences of Cowpea Bruchids [Callosobruchus maculatus (F.)]

Journal of Horticultural Research
Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) is a major storage pest that causes significant quantitative and qualita-tive losses during storage and sale of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.). In this study, the behavioral response of cowpea bruchids (C. maculatus) to

Effect of Sowing Time on the Growth of Mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) Genotypes Within Temperate Environments of Southern Australia

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Mungbean is predominantly cultivated within a subtropical climate, and its potential for cultivation in temperate regions as a summer crop has not been comprehensively assessed. This research investigates the influence of temperature and seasonal variation with sowing time on mungbean phenology, growth and yield at five locations within the ...

Development of a Stealth Health Approach to Improving Lysine Consumption in Nigeria With a Focus on Urban Populations

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Since the Green Revolution, the intake ratio of cereal grains to pulses has increased considerably, coinciding with marked declines in dietary quality, specifically protein and fiber consumption. Prominent increase in consumption of bread formulated with wheat flour has exacerbated the decrease in dietary quality, characterized by a decrease ...

Compost‐Based Organic Amendments and Synthetic Fertilisers Enhance Soil Health and Crop Yield Worldwide

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fertiliser management is central to achieving sustainable increases in crop productivity while maintaining soil health. Yet, it remains unclear how chemical fertilisers, organic amendments (OAs), or their combination have comparable effects on soil health at a global scale.

The Effect of Summer Cover Cropping on Soil Health Is Limited by the Quantity of Carbon Inputs in a Winter Dominant Low Rainfall Environment

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The effects of summer cover crops on cash crop yields and soil health in semi‐arid cropping systems in southern Australia remain largely unexplored. A study was conducted in Western Australia to investigate cover crop impacts on soil carbon and nitrogen cycling, soil water, and mineral nitrogen (N) and cash crop yield.

How Do Management Choices Impact the Performance of Cassava‐Legume Intercropping in Africa? A Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Intercropping can enable sustainable intensification. In Africa, smallholder farmers rely on Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) as a staple food. Nevertheless, the performance of cassava intercropping emerges from management choices such as legume species selection, planting density, sowing time, and nitrogen (N) fertilisation as well as soil ...
