Effects of emergency winter supplemental feeding on survival of mule deer

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Ungulates in temperate regions can experience high mortality during severe winters, which poses significant ecological and economic challenges for wildlife managers. To mitigate these effects, emergency winter‐feeding programs are often implemented, although their effectiveness remains uncertain.

Impact of weed management strategies on their growth, community composition, and yield of wet direct-seeded rice under alternate wetting and drying irrigation

Вестник защиты растений
Water management systems of wet direct-seeded rice (WDSR) and alternate wetting and drying (AWD) have proven to be effective resource-conserving (RC) technologies for rice production.

Contribution of integrated farm management (IFM) to Defra objectives [PDF]

, 2009
A farming system comprises a complex of interrelated and interacting factors. Any study of an isolated part of the system will not provide adequate understanding of the behaviour of the entire system and interactions may be equally or more important than

Pasture Degradation Estimates Through Field Data in the State of Goiás, Brazil

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grasslands and pastures play a critical role in global food security, biodiversity, and ecosystem services, particularly in tropical regions where they serve as the primary base for livestock production. However, these areas are increasingly vulnerable to degradation due to poor management practices, as observed in the Cerrado biome.

A graduated nativeness definition for overcoming dilemmas and difficulties of vascular plant species

Oikos, EarlyView.
Nativeness is a concept central to biodiversity conservation and invasion biology, but there are several problems related to a classic binary nativeness definition. Dilemmas arise from the dynamic nature of species' distribution ranges on longer time scales, and difficulties arise in the application to smaller regions defined by arbitrary borders, and ...

‘Should’ and ‘can’ active restoration be used in biodiversity offsets? Stakeholder perspectives from New South Wales, Australia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite their controversial nature, biodiversity offsets are often used as a regulatory tool to counterbalance the impacts of land clearing on biodiversity. Offsets usually aim to achieve no net loss (NNL) of biodiversity through protection and/or restoration of habitat.

Laser weeding of common weed species

Frontiers in Plant Science
The massive use of herbicides since the 1950s has resulted in increasing problems with herbicideresistant weeds and pollution of the environment, including food, feed, and water. These side effects have resulted in political pressures to reduce herbicide
