Effect of Oil Palm Leaf Meal (Elaeis guineensis) on Growth Performance, Haematology and Carcass Characteristics of West African Dwarf Sheep

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Oil palm leaf meal (OPLM) is a promising feed ingredient for sheep, enhancing nutrient absorption, rumen health, and growth. A 10% inclusion improved weight gain and feed efficiency, while 20% had negative effects on weight and carcass traits. OPLM supplementation positively influenced blood parameters and meat production efficiency, making it a viable

Physiological and Growth Responses of Tropical Dry Forest Tree Seedlings to Water and Nutrient Additions: Comparisons Between Nitrogen Fixers and Non‐Fixers

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
This study examined the physiological and growth responses of tropical dry forest tree seedlings to water and nutrient additions, comparing nitrogen (N)‐fixing and non‐fixing species. The results showed that N‐fixing species responded more strongly to nutrient addition, accumulating significantly more biomass and increasing height growth rate. Overall,

Crescimento e absorção de nutrientes pelo algodoeiro e pela mamoneira adubados com gliricídia e esterco Growth and uptake of nutrients by cotton and castor bean fertilized with gliricidia and/or manure

Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2009
As quantidades de esterco disponíveis nas propriedades não são suficientes para adubar as áreas agrícolas na região semiárida do Brasil. Além disso, o esterco apresenta, em geral, baixa qualidade e pode causar imobilização de nitrogênio do solo.

Pest categorisation of Coccus viridis

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Coccus viridis (Hemiptera: Coccidae), the green coffee scale, for the territory of the European Union (EU), following the commodity risk assessment of Jasminum polyanthum from Uganda, in which C. viridis was identified as a pest of possible concern to the EU.
