Legumes—A Comprehensive Exploration of Global Food-Based Dietary Guidelines and Consumption

Nutrients, 2022
Despite the well-known human and planetary health benefits of legumes, consumption is often low. This scoping review aimed to evaluate the inclusion of legumes in global food-based dietary guidelines (FBDG), and to review consumption data against global ...

Contribution, Utilization, and Improvement of Legumes-Driven Biological Nitrogen Fixation in Agricultural Systems

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021
Legumes improve soil fertility through the symbiotic association with microorganisms, such as rhizobia, which fix the atmospheric nitrogen and make nitrogen available to the host and other crops by a process known as biological nitrogen fixation (BNF ...

Optimizing maize–bean cropping systems for sustainable intensification in southern Ethiopia

Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3283-3296, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Declining productivity and scarcity of cultivable land in smallholder systems call for exploring sustainable intensification options to increase productivity. Field experiments were conducted at five sites (Sites 1–5) of the Sidama region, southern Ethiopia, in 2018 and 2019 to determine the effects of cropping systems on maize (Zea mays L ...

Cover crops affect soybean yield components, but not grain quality

Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3193-3205, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Cover cropping is mainly used to prevent soil erosion, but the effects of individual cover crops on the subsequent soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] are hardly known. Therefore, two annual field trials with 15 cover crop species and bare fallow as control were conducted in semi‐arid East Austria in 2016 and 2017.

Maize–soybean intercropping: A bibliometric analysis of 30 years of research publications

Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3377-3388, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Maize (Zea may L.)–soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] intercropping is popular in many countries because of its high productivity. However, no studies have explored maize–soybean intercropping via bibliometric methods. Taking the Web of Science database, the visualization applications of CiteSpace and VOSviewer were used to visually analyze the ...

Replacing fallow with field pea in wheat production systems across western Nebraska

Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3329-3346, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Integration of field pea (Pisum sativum L.) (FP) into dryland cropping systems has increased due to ecological and economic benefits, paired with a growing market for pea‐derived products. Challenges exist in the High Plains that limit the integration of crop rotations to replace fallow periods with FP in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)‐based ...

Intercropping of grain legumes and cereals improves the use of soil N resources and reduces the requirement for synthetic fertilizer N: A global-scale analysis

Agronomy for Sustainable Development, 2020
Planetary boundaries for terrestrial inputs of reactive nitrogen (Nr) are transgressed and reducing the input of new Nr and its environmental impacts are major global challenges.
