Simulating Agroecology Policy Options for the Resilience of Smallholder Food Security to Climate Shocks

open access: yesClimate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2026.
Climate shocks and the agroecology–resilience nexus of smallholders. Summary of key findings: Agroecology increases smallholder resilience capacity by 8.7% in the short term under a decreased rainfall scenario, a projected 11% decline in precipitation reduces resilience by 5.6% and 14.2% in the short and long terms, respectively, and a policy‐induced ...

Strategies for Mitigating Anti‐Nutritional Factors in Legumes: A Review of Traditional and Innovative Processing Techniques for Enhanced Bioavailability

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Legumes (family Fabaceae) are vital, nutrient‐dense global resources rich in proteins, complex carbohydrates and micronutrients. Although offering agronomic benefits like nitrogen fixation, their dietary utilization is often constrained by anti‐nutritional factors (ANFs) such as phytates, tannins, lectins and oligosaccharides, which reduce ...
