Total N difference method and 15N isotope dilution methode - A comparative study on N-fixation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In the study, the 15N fixation of a number of green manure crops were studied using either the 15N dilution technique, or the simple total N difference method.

Multi‐species productive grasslands offer advantages over permanent grasslands for arthropod conservation, but preserving semi‐natural grasslands remains essential

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
SNGs remain irreplaceable for arthropod conservation, supporting the highest gamma diversity and providing habitat for species sensitive to high LUI. They should be regarded as the cornerstone of arthropod conservation in agricultural landscapes. MSPGs represent an improved alternative to PGs, particularly by enhancing floral resources, although their ...

Biomass production and N2-fixation in seven grass-legume mixtures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Inclusion of forage legumes in low-input grassland mixtures improves biomass production and soil fertility trough addition of nitrogen (N) from N2-fixation.

Microplastic and drought influence the positive effect of plant diversity on plant biomass production

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
Microplastic and drought influenced plant diversity–biomass relationships in a glasshouse grassland experiment. Microplastic reduced the shoot biomass of grasses and legumes, weakening the positive selection effects. In contrast, drought strongly suppressed the shoot biomass of legumes, resulting in negative complementarity and a negative net diversity

Plant Identity Impacts the Soil Microbiome More Than Interspecific Interactions in Intensively Managed Grasslands

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
The impact of plant identity and interspecific interactions on the soil microbiome in intensively managaged grasslands. ABSTRACT Plants and soil microbes are intricately linked, and agricultural production relies heavily on microbially mediated ecosystem services. However, the effects of plant diversity (richness, relative abundance and composition) on

Effect of different pastures on CLA content in milk and sheep cheese [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
It is known that milk composition included conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is affected by animal feeding system (Cabiddu et al., 2001). In Sardinia dairy sheep feeding is mainly based on pastures.

Influence of Enhanced Rock Weathering of Nepheline‐Syenite Tailings on Major and Trace Elements Accumulation in Wheat

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Enhanced weathering of silicates consumes atmospheric CO2 and releases bio‐essential ions and trace elements that enrich the rhizosphere. This increases availability and uptake, influencing plant nutrient status and growth. ABSTRACT Soil nutrient depletion and quality are critical challenges facing agriculture and have been exacerbated by the long‐term

Regenerative Management and Phosphorus Fertiliser Effects on Dryland Pasture Yield and Botanical Composition in New Zealand

open access: yesGrass and Forage Science, Volume 81, Issue 1, January-March 2026.
ABSTRACT This 3.5‐year grazed farmlet study investigated the impacts of regenerative agriculture and soil phosphorus (P) fertiliser on herbage dry matter (DM) yield and botanical composition in sheep‐grazed dryland pastures. Four treatments compared regenerative with conventional agriculture, under high and low P fertiliser, with Olsen P targets of 10 ...
