‘The most advanced outpost of cultivation’: palynological evidence for cereal agriculture and population resilience in a marginal upland environment

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Upland farming in Europe is frequently assumed to have been limited and precarious, despite relict spade‐dug ridges providing firm evidence of past crop growing. Direct evidence for crop types in post‑Medieval to Modern (~since 1500 CE) uplands is rare; yet, in Ireland, relict spade‐dug ridges that date to this period are commonly interpreted ...

Evaluation of integrated weed control methods to reduce herbicides input in processing tomato

open access: yes
Herbicides are widely used for weed control in processing tomato due to their high efficacy and low cost; however, their environmental dispersion raises concerns about soil and water contamination.

Synergistic effects of maize defoliation and common bean relay cropping in Western Ethiopia

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Maize defoliation is practiced to enhance crop management by improving light penetration, nutrient allocation, controlling weeds, and providing supplementary feeds for livestock. A rapid decline in soil fertility and low crop yields associated with maize‐based monocropping has prompted the recent introduction of maize common bean ...

Weed supression by smother crops and selective herbicides

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2004
Using a smother crop is thought to suppress weed density and to add other beneficial effects in sustainable agricultural systems. Weed suppression ought to be considered an essential component of integrated weed management.

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

Phytochemical composition and cultivar‐dependent variation in colored lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and their α‐amylase inhibitory activity

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND This study investigated cultivar‐dependent variation in the phytochemical composition of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) profiling and high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) quantification, with a focus on enzyme inhibitory activity. RESULTS Significant differences were

Northern bobwhites associated with native grass and shrubs have improved survival

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Survival rates of adult northern bobwhites were improved by a combination of grazed native warm‐season grasses and well‐interspersed shrubs. Our study suggests that incorporating native warm‐season grass cattle forages into existing operations across the southeastern United States may be a viable working‐lands conservation strategy to create habitat ...
