An Effective Approach for Recognition of Crop Diseases Using Advanced Image Processing and YOLOv8

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
The performance of processed images is evaluated using mean‐squared‐error and peak‐signal‐to‐noise ratio. After the processing phase, an advanced deep learning model, YOLOv8, was used for the segmentation and classification of crop diseases. Using a large dataset comprising 32 diseases to train our model, we implemented Transfer Learning using YOLOv8 ...

The Vulnerability of New Zealand Forage Plants to Incursions by New Pests, Pathogens and Weeds, and the Case for Greater Protection

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
We outline the diversity of pests, weeds and plant pathogens absent from New Zealand that threaten forage production, examine their potential import pathways, and outline the challenges of managing them should they arrive. The number and diversity of threats and pathways indicates ongoing incursions are inevitable.

Methyl jasmonate fumigation enhances crop yield and delays physiochemical quality changes by modulating the secondary metabolism in green bell pepper

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 55-72, 15 January 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND The green bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), of the ‘Lamuyo’ type, is a highly valued vegetable owing to its excellent organoleptic and nutritional properties. However, these properties are subject to deterioration during postharvest storage, which in turn limits the shelf‐life of the pepper fruit.
