Farmers' willingness to adopt irrigation for Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd) in communities of the central altiplano of Bolivia [PDF]

, 2011
Quinoa is considered a strategic crop because it is well adapted to the adverse abiotic conditions of the Bolivian Altiplano; however, the average yield is low.

Irrigation scheduling and regulated deficit irrigation in stone fruits

Proceedings of the 4th Workshop on Agri-Food Research. WiA
In recent years the interest for applying irrigation techniques aiming to reduce water consumption has increased, mainly in areas with scarce water resources. We studied the effect of different regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) strategies on peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch cv.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Contrasting CO2‐response strategies in Pardina lentils: Yield maximization in a commercial cultivar and seed composition adjustment in a landrace

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Assessing crop's responses to elevated carbon dioxide (eCO2) is crucial for global food security. This study examines the impact of eCO2 (700 μmol mol−1) on the cultivars of lentil (Lens culinaris), local Pardina Verde Rayada lentil (PVRL), and commercial Pardina lentil (PL) in terms of the productivity and nutritional composition ...

Chitosan‐induced modulation of secondary metabolism and stress tolerance in Salvia rosmarinus under combined drought and heat stress

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Abiotic stresses, particularly drought and elevated temperatures, negatively affect plant physiological and metabolic processes. This study investigated the effects of drought, heat, and combined stress on Salvia rosmarinus (rosemary), and evaluated foliar‐applied chitosan as a biostimulant.
