Heavy metal pollution reduces soil health and threatens food safety by entering plants; however, the use of nanoparticles, biofertilizers, and organic fertilizers such as biochar offers a promising strategy for improvement and sustainable agriculture. ABSTRACT Heavy metal (HM) pollution, resulting from human activities such as mining and the excessive ...

Crop sequencing effects of seven crops on grain yield, volunteers, and weeds in Saskatchewan
Abstract Every growing season, producers must decide which crops to grow and in what sequence to enhance returns and sustain productivity. However, when producers consider growing specialty crops like canary seed (Phalaris canariensis L.), coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.), hemp (Cannabis sativa L.), or quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), data are ...

Impact of crop sequence on cereal yield and soil health in shallow dryland soils
Abstract Diversifying small‐grain production systems is encouraged in the US northern Great Plains and similar semiarid regions. Our objective was to determine how crop sequence affected small‐grain crop disease, grain yield, and soil biology in shallow dryland soils of central Montana. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), canola (Brassica napus L.), field pea

Soil chemical properties and crop yields response to dryland diversified crop rotations
Abstract Diversified crop rotations can affect soil water and nutrient uptake and produce variable quality and quantity of crop residue that may alter soil chemical properties and crop yields compared to monocropping. We examined the effects of dryland diversified crop rotations with or without cover crop on soil pH, organic matter (SOM), P, and K ...

Production of flax fabric/polylactic acid biocomposite. ABSTRACT The development of fully biodegradable composites has gained significant attention as a sustainable alternative to traditional fiber‐reinforced materials. This study focuses on enhancing the interfacial adhesion and toughness of flax fiber‐reinforced polylactic acid (PLA) biocomposites ...

Effects of Biochar and Maize Roots on CO2 Emissions and Microbial Biomass C in Loess Soils
ABSTRACT Background Refractory substances such as biochar and labile substances such as dead fine and coarse roots play important roles in soil organic matter dynamics and have key ecological functions. However, interactions between these substances have only rarely been studied.

ABSTRACT In this study, we investigated the immunomodulatory effects of St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) oil on the growth performance, immune responses and resistance against Lactococcus garvieae in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). The plant oil was incorporated into feeds at concentrations of 1, 3, and 5 g kg−1, designated as K1, K3, and K5,
