3N Agriculture: Growing the greenest tomorrow

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract The global food system must confront the intertwined challenges of feeding a growing population, reversing environmental degradation, and improving nutrition. While past agricultural innovations improved yields, they often undermined sustainability and food quality. In response, we propose the 3N Agriculture framework—Net‐Zero, Nature‐Positive,

Multifunctionality of annual forage crop mixtures for improved biomass, beef cattle diets, and soil health outcomes

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Cover crop mixtures (CCMs) can fit well into various agricultural production systems and have gained popularity among grain and livestock producers, as well as organic and market gardeners across western Canada, due to their potential to enhance forage production and soil health.

Farming practices and their effect on soil moisture and penetration resistance: Impact on maize yields in rainfed agriculture

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract In sub‐Saharan Africa, there is growing interest in conservation agriculture practices, including reduced tillage (e.g., ripping), residue retention, and crop diversification, but their effects on soil moisture and penetration resistance in sub‐humid regions remain unclear.

Strip cropping system for sustainable food and energy production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Strip cropping is a strategy for subdividing single fields into strips with different crops in order to gain the same positive effects known from crop rotations. No additional yield was found by using traditional market pricing, however.

Spatial distribution and biophysical relationships of common bean angular leaf spot (Pseudocercospora griseola) with agronomic factors in west and southwest Ethiopia

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The prevalence of angular leaf spot (ALS) in common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) poses significant challenges to productivity in the western and southwestern regions of Ethiopia. This agricultural study was conducted to assess the distribution of ALS and examine the relationship between ALS and biophysical and agronomic factors.
