Frequency Distribution of Sward Heights and Forage Species Composition in Different Integrated Crop–Livestock Systems

open access: yesGrasses
Sward height is a practical indicator for defining management targets that reflect pasture structure. The complexity of integrated systems, including the coexistence of trees, crops, and livestock, can modify animal grazing distribution and microhabitat ...

Optimizing biomass use for carbon storage and land use with the OptiBiU model

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Optimal biomass use in a circular bioeconomy requires a system perspective to guide decision‐making. The Optimizing Biomass Use (OptiBiU) model was developed for this purpose. The model distinguishes among primary biomass production, intermediate products, and biobased products, and incorporates recycling.

Understanding the paradox of primary teacher shortage in low‐income countries: Insights from Malawi

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Malawi faces a persistent and chronic teacher shortage, particularly at the primary school level, with much of the challenge attributed to teacher supply constraints. While the causes of teacher shortages are known to be complex and context‐dependent, there remains a lack of in‐depth, country‐specific research to guide effective policies ...
