Exploring the Spatial Dynamics of a Just Regional Energy Transition: What If We Ask Citizens?

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The installation of wind turbines and solar parks in valued rural landscapes has led to local concerns and perceived injustices to the extent that the societal acceptance of the energy transition is at stake. Although the literature on energy justice is blooming, research into citizens' understandings of justice with regards to regional energy

Overview of autotoxicity in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.): Identifying gaps between laboratory findings and demonstration at field scale

Grassland Research
Autotoxicity is a type of intraspecific allelopathy in which compounds released by a plant inhibit the growth of other plants of the same species. In alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), an herbaceous perennial legume widely used in hay and pasture production ...

Narrow‐leaved plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.): A review of research on forage management within temperate grazing systems

Grassland Research
Forage plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.) has emerged as a valuable agronomic species within grazing systems in New Zealand. The release of two cultivars in New Zealand in the mid‐1990s led to on‐farm use and research.

A Novel Neutral Polysaccharide From Bamboo Shoot Processing Liquid: Structural Characterization and In Vitro TLR4/NF‐κB Mediated Anti‐Inflammatory Activity

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Value‐added utilization of resources can be developed from by‐products of agricultural processing. In this study, a neutral polysaccharide (BSLP‐1, 19,799 Da) was obtained from bamboo shoot processing liquid. Structurally, BSLP‐1 has a backbone of →4)‐α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→ and →4,6)‐α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→, with side chains of →5)‐α‐L‐Araf‐(1→ and α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→6 ...

Effect of fermented total mixed rations on rumen microbial communities and serum metabolites in lambs

Grassland Research
Background Diet regulates rumen microbiota, which in turn affects animal health. The present study evaluated the response of rumen microbiota and the immune system of lambs to a fermented total mixed ration diet. Methods A total of 30 lambs were assigned

Enabling pastoralist management of rangelands to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Rangelands cover 54% of the global terrestrial area and are threatened by land conversion and degradation, which erodes their global value and weakens the livelihoods of pastoralists who manage them. Sustainable Development Goal Target 15.3 on Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) provides a framework for sustainable rangelands management, but countries ...

Plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria and Trichoderma shift common vetch (Vicia sativa) physiology and phyllosphere bacteria toward antagonism against anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum spinaciae

Grassland Research
Background Plant phyllosphere microbes are important for the host plant's protection. Plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and Trichoderma are common biocontrol agents (BCAs) for disease management.

Impacts of tillage on soil properties and interactions with drainage when reseeding permanent pasture

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Effect of three‐way interaction between soil tillage, drainage and depths on soil properties in reseeded pastures. Abstract Background Grassland reseeding typically requires intensive tillage. This disrupts soil nutrient dynamics, especially under varying drainage conditions. Methods This study evaluated the combined effects of tillage legacy, drainage
