Estimating loss of ecosystem services due to paddy straw burning in North-west India

International Journal of Agricultural Sustainability, 2019
Crop residue burning is severe in rice–wheat cropping system of North-western states (Punjab, Haryana, Uttarakhand, and western Uttar Pradesh) of India, where mechanized harvesting of rice using combine harvesters is a common practice, and management of ...

Effect of tillage and residue retention on maize productivity [PDF]

, 2011
In Bangladesh, maize is generally sown after extensive tilth and minimum residue retention. Conservation agriculture (CA) systems reduce the input costs, machinery use, CO2 emissions; and improve soil health (Raper et al., 1994).

Polymer Brushes Govern Defect‐Selective Oxidative Etching of Penta‐Twinned Gold Nanorods

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Polymer brushes act as active interfacial regulators of oxidative etching, directing it to crystallographic defects. In penta‐twinned gold nanorods, defect–ligand interplay localizes etching to defect regions and induces surface corrugations on the long nanorod sides. This work establishes a framework for programmable nanoengineering of the surfaces of

Heat Stress Promotes Fibroblast‐Derived WNT5A Secretion Through m6A Modification to Activate Melanogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Heat stress promotes WNT5A secretion from fibroblasts via METTL3/YTHDC1‐dependent m6A methylation. Subsequently, WNT5A binds to FZD10 on melanocytes, activating β‐catenin‐driven melanogenesis. ABSTRACT As the impact of global warming continues to intensify, the effects of heat stress on the skin are becoming increasingly evident.

Maximum Stability Point Tracking Stabilizes Wide‐Bandgap Mixed‐Halide Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A maximum stability point tracking (MSPT) strategy suppresses charge trapping‐induced halide segregation, enabling wide‐bandgap perovskite solar cells to achieve significantly enhanced operational stability compared to conventional maximum power point tracking (MPPT).

Agricultural production and air pollution: An investigation on crop straw fires.

PLoS ONE
In numerous developing nations, the pervasive practice of crop residue incineration is a principal contributor to atmospheric contamination in agricultural operations. This study examines the repercussions of such biomass combustion on air quality during

Do Tax Incentives for Farmland Leases Increase Farm Supply? Evidence From Iowa's Beginning Farmer Tax Credit

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent decades, agriculture has become increasingly concentrated through horizontal mergers and acquisitions via corporate entities, and policy makers are concerned this will be exacerbated by the aging population of farm operators. To reduce market concentration in agriculture, many states have enacted policies to entice new prospective ...
