An online survey of farmers' perspectives on the adoption of multispecies swards: Barriers, benefits and knowledge gaps

Grassland Research, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 376-388, December 2025.
An Irish farmer survey found that multispecies swards can reduce fertiliser use and enhance drought resilience and biodiversity. While awareness is high, adoption is limited by challenges like weed control and grazing management. Farmers want clearer guidance and prefer learning through hands‐on events like open days and discussion groups.

Leveraging high‐dimensional seed colorspace in phenomic selection models for herbaceous perennial crops

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 8, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract Herbaceous perennial crops, which only recently entered the domestication pipeline, offer the potential of ecological benefits in agricultural systems but remain underdeveloped, partly due to slow breeding cycles. Early‐stage phenomic selection, the process of using high‐dimensional secondary traits to predict target traits, may accelerate ...

Effects of Tannin‐Rich Forages (Lespedeza bicolor and Polygonum viviparum ) Mixed With Medicago sativa on In Vitro Rumen Fermentation

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
Mixing alfalfa with tannin‐rich forages is an effective way to improve rumen fermentation. Lespedeza bicolor showed a more prominent effect on reducing gas and methane production than Polygonum viviparum when mixed with alfalfa. When the mixing ratio of tannin‐rich forages and alfalfa was below the threshold of 40:60, the overall fermentation of the ...

De novo transcriptome assembly and candidate gene discovery for high seedling vigor in cicer milkvetch (Astragalus cicer L.)

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Cicer milkvetch (Astragalus cicer L.) (CMV) is a perennial, winter hardy forage legume for grazing in the temperate regions of world. Low seed germination and low seedling vigor of this species often reduce stand establishment success, limiting producer adoption.
