Oat–Sesbania Rotation Boosts Oat Yield and Profit via Soil Nutrient Buildup and Dual Harvest

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 2, December 2026.
Under the oat–Sesbania rotation system, soil nutrient accumulation serves as a key driver of increased oat yield and quality, with benefits tending to intensify over successive rotational years. Green manure incorporation of Sesbania promotes soil and crop improvement, whereas forage harvesting of Sesbania attains comparable agronomic outcomes while ...

Resurvey of Boreal Earthworm Communities in Southern and Northern Finland

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 4, December 2026.
Boreal forests account for 11.5% of the Earth's land area, and, unlike oceanic and mediterranean forests, their cold winters typically represent the harshest season for earthworms. In Fennoscandia, these forests are subject to substantial global changes, notably climate change and land use intensification, which might impact earthworm populations.
