Revival of traditional agricultural systems – A multidisciplinary on‐farm survey of maize‐bean intercropping reveals unexpected competition effects on beans

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 6, Page 1755-1770, November 2025.
Cereal‐legume intercropping is a promising strategy for sustainable agroecosystems, leveraging the biological complementarities between plant species to reduce the need for inputs while enhancing field biodiversity. Here, we focused on maize‐bean intercropping, which is experiencing a revival in conventional agricultural settings.

Characterization of Water States in Canola Seeds With Varying Moisture Contents Using Differential Scanning Calorimetry

Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Characterization of water status in grains is essential for grain drying, storage, and handling. A state diagram of canola seeds was developed incorporating the freezing curve, glass transition line, and critical moisture content (MC) at which freezable water first appears using differential scanning calorimetry. Cooling and heating rates of 1,

Nitrogen fertilizer placement and its influence on snap bean production in North Florida

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract In sandy soils or areas with abundant rainfall, nutrients tend to leach from where plant roots grow. Nitrogen (N) is a mobile element that is consistently at risk of being lost to the environment. In the spring of 2023, a controlled‐release fertilizer (CRF) study with two locations was undertaken at the North Florida Research and Education ...

Allelopathic effects of Parthenium hysterophorus L. aqueous extracts on soybean (Glycine max L.) and haricot bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seed germination, shoot and root growth and dry matter production

Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2012
Aqueous extracts of shoot (stem + branch), leaf, fl ower and root of Parthenium hysterophorus L. at 0, 5, 10 and 15% (w/v) concentrations were applied on seeds of soybean (Glycine max L.) and haricot bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) to investigate their ...
