Green manuring for tropical organic cropping – A comparative analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Green manuring is an essential component of tropical organic farming. Field studies evaluated the use of three legumes as in situ or ex situ green manures, along with a nonlegume green manure and a control to ascertain their impacts on soil properties ...

Response of cereals to intercropping with non‐food crops in tropical and subtropical regions: A meta‐analysis

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Intercropping cereals with non‐food intercrops (NFICs) provides a means to enhance cereal productivity while providing additional benefits such as improved soil health or forage production. We conducted a meta‐analysis to investigate the effect of NFICs on cereal yields, cereal nitrogen uptake, and striga (Striga spp.) infestation, using 874 ...

Brassica biofumigation cover crops in US agroecosystems: A systematic review of research from 2014 to 2024

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Soil Property Responses to Push‐Pull Cropping in East Africa

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Push‐pull technology is increasingly promoted in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly for pest management and enhancing crop productivity. However, its influence on soil properties remains understudied, despite its potential implications for soil health and sustainable soil fertility management. This study examines soil properties in push‐pull and
