GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2026.This study assessed the industrial hemp value web resilience in the Swabian Alb, Southern Germany, where regional implementation remains limited despite hemp's bioeconomy potential. Using an indicator framework and stakeholder interviews, the research found the small, fluctuating cultivation area (e.g., 25 ha in 2024) focuses on hemp seed valorisation;

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2026.Co‐applying half‐rate BMC layer: (i) Reduced nutrient inputs and (ii) produced similar yield. ABSTRACT Developing high‐efficiency fertilizers with less environmental footprint is essential for sustainable cropping systems. This study evaluated a biochar mineral complex (BMC) to reduce nutrient leaching and increase nutrient use efficiency (NUE), yield,

Domestication‐Selected Promoter Insertion in WRKY17 Increases Cadmium Sensitivity in Apple
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 659-677, February 2026.ABSTRACT With increasing industrialisation and human activities, heavy metal pollution has become a serious environmental concern, particularly cadmium (Cd) contamination. This study reveals significant differences in Cd tolerance between wild apple (Malus spp.) and cultivated apple (Malus domestica).

Digestate in paddy soil – methane emission and carbon sequestration
International Journal of Recycling of Organic Waste in AgriculturePurpose: Soils are the largest store of carbon in the biosphere, but soils can also act as the key sources of greenhouse gases. Rice cultivation in paddy soil is anoxic, thus creating an optimal condition for methane production.

Anaerobic co-digestion of municipal sewage sludge and fruit/vegetable waste: effect of different mixtures on digester stability and methane yield [PDF]
, 2016 There are different options for the management of fruit and vegetable wastes (FVWs), but the most environmental-friendly is the anaerobic digestion, because it allows an optimum recovery of materials and energy from the two by-products: biogas and ...
