Strategies to improve quality and safety and reduce cost of production in organic and low-input crop production systems. QLIF subproject 3: Crop production methods [PDF]

, 2009
Organic crop production seeks to produce high quality foods while reducing the inputs in order to promote environmental quality and conserve resources. This necessitates optimal production systems in terms of soil fertility and plant health.

Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 301-328, March 2025.
Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.

Can Organic Amendments Support Sustainable Vegetable Production?

Agronomy Journal, 2017
Core Ideas Accounting for the N release from organic amendments improves N use efficiency and promotes soil C storage in horticultural soils. Regional N fertilizer recommendations are affected by a high degree of uncertainty. Crop simulation model can help to develop efficient site‐specific N management.

Graphite Co‐Intercalation Chemistry in Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2025.
Traditional intercalation chemistry in lithium‐ion batteries cannot allow sodium storage in graphite. The co‐intercalation chemistry changes the situation. It enables reversible and ultrafast sodium storage in graphite. Revisiting challenges and summarizing recent advances are of significant importance to exploit the full potential of graphite in ...

Water-extractable alkalinity to estimate the acid-neutralising capacity of organic amendments

Geoderma
The effectiveness of amendments to increase the pH of an acidic soil can be expressed as acid-neutralizing capacity (ANC). The alkalinity measurement method, based on prolonged hydrolysis of organic amendments with acid, is widely used but may ...

A sustainable business ecosystem: a case study demonstrating biochar's potential

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The need for renewable, climate‐friendly resources has become urgent as legislators worldwide have sought to find ways to cut emissions while ensuring resource security for consumers. The use of biochar could help to achieve these goals. This study examines the current state of commercial biochar production and the maturity of the related ...

Optimizing biomass use for carbon storage and land use with the OptiBiU model

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Optimal biomass use in a circular bioeconomy requires a system perspective to guide decision‐making. The Optimizing Biomass Use (OptiBiU) model was developed for this purpose. The model distinguishes among primary biomass production, intermediate products, and biobased products, and incorporates recycling.

Effects of Organic Amendments with Different C/N Ratios and Application Rates on N Mineralization–Immobilization in Calcareous Cropland Soil

Agronomy
The application of organic amendments is increasing in intensive modern agriculture. However, the impacts of organic amendments with distinct quality and quantity on soil mineral nitrogen (N) dynamics remain unclear.

Improving soil phosphorus availability and yield of Zea mays l. using biochar and compost derived from agro-industrial wastes

Italian Journal of Agronomy, 2019
Tropical soils such as Ultisols fix phosphorus (P) because of their characteristically high contents of aluminium and iron. Organic amendments could be used to mitigate P fixation.
