Who Are the Farmers Participating in a Carbon Sequestration Program? Results of a Discrete Choice Experiment in Germany

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural soils offer great potential for carbon sequestration through humus formation. One way to motivate farmers to build up humus is through humus programs. These are still at an early stage of development, poorly explored, and the number of participating farmers is low. Our aim is to explain the heterogeneity of farmers' willingness to

Sustainable Graphene Oxide–Intercalated Bentonite Composite for the Effective Removal of Imidacloprid From Water: Adsorption Performance, Isotherm, and Kinetics

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental necessity for our existence, but its rapid contamination is causing devastating effects on the environment and health of living species worldwide. Adsorptive removal of pollutants is one of the popular water treatment techniques because of its simplicity, affordability, and the broad range of available adsorbents.

The impact and toxicity of glyphosate and glyphosate-based herbicides on health and immunity

Journal of Immunotoxicology, 2020
Glyphosate, or N-phosphomethyl(glycine), is an organophosphorus compound and a competitive inhibitor of the shikimate pathway that allows aromatic amino acid biosynthesis in plants and microorganisms. Its utilization in broad-spectrum herbicides, such as

The Application of Carbon Dots in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture

ChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
Carbon dots serve as versatile nanoagents across the crop life cycle. They promote plant growth and photosynthesis, enhance resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses, aid in postharvest preservation, and enable sensitive detection of contaminants.

Crop Response to Glyphosate Trimesium Sulphosate

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2013
Glyphosate may cause injury to non-target plants. The first detectable symptom after glyphosate treatment is the growth inhibition, followed by noticeable yellowing (chlorosis) of the treated tissue.

Review of recent advances in the design, synthesis, and modification of biochar for remediation of heavy metal pollution in water

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Research frontiers in using biochar for heavy metal remediation. Abstract Heavy metal contamination of water has long been a serious environmental issue. Biochar and biochar‐based composites are emerging as effective and sustainable solutions for heavy metal removal due to their strong adsorption abilities and environmentally friendly nature.

Development of highly glyphosate-tolerant tobacco by coexpression of glyphosate acetyltransferase gat and EPSPS G2-aroA genes

Crop Journal, 2014
The widely used herbicide glyphosate targets 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS). Glyphosate acetyltransferase (GAT) effectively detoxifies glyphosate by N-acetylation.
