Almond Shell‐Derived Cellulosic Microfibres: Extraction, Characterisation and Applications in Sustainable Paper‐Based Packaging

Packaging Technology and Science, Volume 39, Issue 10, Page 1231-1251, October 2026.
Cellulosic microfibres were extracted from almond shells using organosolv, soda and kraft processes, and comprehensive physicochemical, surface, thermal and morphological characterisation demonstrated their strong potential as sustainable fillers for paper‐based packaging application. ABSTRACT This study develops pathways for the valorisation of almond

Harvesting benefits: Exploring the effects of second‐best policies on enhancing soil organic carbon stocks in agriculture

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 5, Page 1402-1436, October 2026.
Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.

Substitution of fiber hemp for corn did not affect soil greenhouse gas emissions from a Kentucky cropping system

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Industrial hemp's return to American agriculture has been accompanied by claims of the crop's carbon neutrality, primarily due to its commercial applications. While carbon can be sequestered within products made with hemp fiber, there is little empirical evidence quantifying greenhouse gas contributions from the crop's production.

Zea mays Drought‐Overly Sensitive1/TUBA4 Is Wilty3, and Transcriptome Co‐Expression Analysis of Shoot Meristem Mutant Tissues Reveals Wilty2/TUB6:Wi3 Interactions Associated With Stem Vascular Bundle Development

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant vasculature is essential for the transport of water, nutrients, and signaling molecules across organs, while also providing critical mechanical support for growth and development. Disruptions in vascular bundle formation can therefore lead to severe physiological and developmental defects.

No Cost of Resistance in Wheat Gene Stack Lines Containing 10 Stem Rust Resistance Transgenes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 9, Page 5185-5200, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic resistance is the most economical and sustainable approach for crop protection, however, it is regularly overcome by pathogen virulence evolution. Polygenic resistance has greater durability, but unlinked genes are laborious to maintain in breeding programs.

Native seed mix functional composition determines native plant recruitment and competition against invasive annual grass Bromus tectorum

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract Introduction The invasion of the winter annual grass Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) reduces native plant biodiversity and increases wildfire risk in western North America. Seed‐based restoration often fails to increase native plant recruitment in degraded, Cheatgrass‐invaded areas.

Improvement of the technological process of fiber flax pulling at swath harvesting

Tractors and Agricultural Machinery
BACKGROUND: The most labor- and cost-intensive process in flax production is harvesting, which, depending on the technology used, takes 65–80% of labor costs, 55–75% of monetary costs and up to 40% of energy costs. Swath harvesting includes fiber flax pulling with a flax puller and simultaneous fiber flax retting in bands on the field.
