Truncating leguminous fixation and post‐harvest scavenging: Two pathways for reducing nitrate leaching in potato rotations

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Nitrate leaching from intensive potato production is a significant contributor to groundwater contamination and estuarine eutrophication in Atlantic Canada. This 5‐year study (2018–2023) evaluated two cover‐cropping strategies in a barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)–red clover (Trifolium pratense L.)–potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) rotation in Prince ...

Combined effects of canola plant density and insecticide management strategies on flea beetle abundance, canola defoliation, and yield across the Canadian prairies

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10648-10657, November 2026.
Increasing canola plant density reduced flea beetle abundance per plant and increased yield, independent of region or insecticide use, highlighting its potential as a component of integrated pest management. Abstract The crucifer flea beetle, Phyllotreta cruciferae (Goeze), and the striped flea beetle, Phyllotreta striolata (Fabricius) (Coleoptera ...

Integrating Human Rights Into Food Systems Policy to Progress the Fulfillment of the Right to Adequate Food—Enablers, Barriers, and Windows of Opportunity

open access: yesWorld Food Policy, Volume 12, Issue 2, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Prevailing levels of hunger, malnutrition, and food insecurity—driven by conflict, global economic crises, and ecological destruction—are threatening fulfillment of the right to adequate food. The integration of human rights in food systems policies can address these challenges; however, progress in the adoption of human rights–based ...

How Competitive Is Myanmar's Rice Sector? A Comparison of Production Costs and Efficiency

open access: yesAgribusiness, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 1915-1941, Autumn 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the cost competitiveness of rice production in Myanmar by examining production costs, cost efficiency, and the potential effect of improving cost efficiency on the country's global competitiveness. To achieve this, we conduct a comparative analysis of production costs among major rice‐producing countries and estimate the ...

Weed Seeds in New Zealand Vegetable Seed Lots: Evaluating Seed Cleaning Effectiveness From Commercial and Biosecurity Perspectives

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 5, October 2026.
Weed seed contamination in vegetable seed lots poses risks to commercial seed quality and biosecurity, yet few studies have examined contamination in vegetable crops, and none have compared pre‐ and post‐cleaning levels using quantitative seed counts. We analysed 1,322 field‐dressed (FD) and machine‐dressed (MD) purity test results from four vegetable ...

A Trp574–Leu substitution confers resistance to three classes of acetolactate synthase inhibitors in Australian brome grass (Bromus diandrus)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9437-9443, October 2026.
Target‐site based imidazolinone resistance in brome grass was found to be conferred by a mutation at position 574 in the ALS gene and to severely impact the efficacy of the herbicide Intervix®, a co‐formulation of imazamox and imazapyr. Abstract BACKGROUND Brome grass (Bromus diandrus) is a prevalent weed in southern Australian cropping regions which ...

Persistence of PPO mutations and dynamics of Amaranthus palmeri resistance to PPO‐inhibitor herbicides in a decade

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 10185-10191, October 2026.
Over a decade, Arkansas Amaranthus palmeri populations maintained resistance to PPO‐inhibiting herbicides. PPO2 mutations relate to shifts in herbicide resistance patterns over time. Abstract BACKGROUND Amaranthus is a highly troublesome weed genera globally.

Effects of Glyphosate on the Planktonic Microbiota: An Experimental Approach

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 10, Page 889-905, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world, including in Brazil, and its dispersion through habitats and surface waters can impact entire aquatic ecosystems. However, experimental studies evaluating the effects of pesticides on whole planktonic communities, considering attributes such as richness, density and composition—
