Efficacy of Putative Botanical Fumigants and Fungicides Against Soil‐Borne Fungal Pathogens in Wheat

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The negative effects of pesticides for humans and environment have encouraged research into natural control means to protect crops from biotic stresses. This study evaluated the antifungal activity and phytotoxicity of seven natural putative inhibitory products (PIPs), as well their persistence, under both in vitro and in vivo conditions.

The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...
