Stratified and adaptive regression for NDVI-based land surface temperature downscaling over agricultural fields

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Improving the spatial resolution of thermal imagery is essential for agricultural field management, especially in developing countries where fields are fragmented and heterogeneous.

SELECTION EVALUATION OF SELF-POLLINATED LINES OF THE KERNZA SPRINKLE-WHEAT HYBRID BY FORAGE PRODUCTIVITY INDICATORS

Agriculture and Forestry
The aim of the study was to carry out a selection assessment of self-pollinated lines of the spelt-wheat hybrid Kernza, which is considered one of the promising perennial grain-forage crops, according to the main indicators of forage productivity. The task of the study was to select highly productive and adaptive starting material for further breeding ...

Age‐related changes in root dynamics of a novel perennial grain crop

Grassland Research
Background Standing root biomass stocks are larger in the perennial grain intermediate wheatgrass (IWG; Thinopyrum intermedium [Host] Barkworth and Dewey) than annual spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).

Root decomposition and nutrient dynamics in multifunctional forage‐biomass buffer‐strip systems

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
Perennial crops are thought as a solution for enhancing food security and providing ecosystem services under a changing climate, including forage‐biomass production, reduced erosion and nutrient leaching, and soil C accumulation.

Nematode community structure suggests perennial grain cropping cultivation as a nature‐based solution for resilient agriculture

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment
Introduction Conventional agricultural land‐use may negatively impact biodiversity and the environment due to the increased disturbances to the soil ecosystem by tillage, for example. Cultivation of the perennial grain intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum
