Integrating Physiological and Biochemical Traits to Identify Drought‐Resilient Guar Genotypes Through MGIDI Analysis

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Guar (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) is a drought‐tolerant crop and an important source of gum and bioactive compounds. The present study was conducted to investigate the response of 15 different guar genotypes under three soil moisture levels (100%, 70%, and 45% FC).

Do Exotic Versus Native Grasses or Increasing Plant Diversity Affect Larval Development of the Cromwell Chafer Beetle (Prodontria lewisii)?

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
The Cromwell Chafer Beetle (Prodontria lewisii) is an endangered flightless scarab that is extremely vulnerable to extinction because of its small single population at the Cromwell Chafer Beetle Nature Reserve. Captive rearing and translocation are being tested as additional tools to support existing conservation management of this species. To optimize

Optimization of Inter-Row Spacing and Nitrogen Rate for the application of Vision Guided Inter-Row Weeding in Organic Spring Cereals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Flex-tine weed harrowing conducted as a full-width operation treating both crop and weeds is the principal method for direct weed control in organic spring cereals in Northern Europe. Results with this technology have varied considerably where especially

A comparative applied analysis of six robotic-assisted weeding systems in sugar beets

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment
Effective weed management is crucial in the critical period of sugar beet production, but often lacks sustainability and environmental protection. Recent advancements in sensor-based weed control systems have rendered the latter a realistic prospect ...

How Do Management Choices Impact the Performance of Cassava‐Legume Intercropping in Africa? A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Intercropping can enable sustainable intensification. In Africa, smallholder farmers rely on Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) as a staple food. Nevertheless, the performance of cassava intercropping emerges from management choices such as legume species selection, planting density, sowing time, and nitrogen (N) fertilisation as well as soil ...

Cassava production systems optimized for double output: Seed‐cuttings and root yields

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a strategic crop for food security but continues to face major challenges related to low root yields and the lack of optimized systems for producing high‐quality seed‐cuttings. This study evaluated the effects of different planting densities, varieties, and agrochemical‐based seed‐cutting treatments ...

Individual plant care in cropping systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Individual plant care cropping systems, embodied in precision farming, may lead to new opportunities in agricultural crop management. The objective of the project was to provide high accuracy seed position mapping of a field of sugar beet. An RTK GPS was

Seasonal mass‐flowering events dominate landscape effects on plant–pollinator network structure

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
To better support plant–pollinator communities in agricultural‐dominated landscapes, we suggest incentivizing the planting of complementary floral resources and preserving or restoring semi‐natural habitat areas. Especially in intensively used agroecosystems, the negative effects of mass‐flowering crops can be mitigated by maintaining flower‐rich edge ...

Prevention and control of weeds, pests and diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Weed control still requires major investments of money and labour in organic arable farming and field vegetable cultivation. For this reason, current research is focused to a large extent on the development of weed control strategies.
